What is happening
32 2017-01-11 by 7x17
I haven't been on here in a week and now I have just seen an absolute shit storm occur in this sub. A sub that was once filled with like-minded intellects has corrupted. The amount of tension and hatred has also suprised me greatly. Everyone here was majorly anti-Hillary because of known crimes and all of a sudden the sub is anti-Trump because of a buzzfeed article. I see these bizarre occurrences and it is certain that they go beyond trivial things like political preference. This sub is 99% compromised and everyone here is in a state of extreme paranoia and anxiety. Only the ones who have been here for a long time know exactly that what is happening is irregular and the only options now are to either fight back for this sub or go somewhere else for discussion.
This post may not make any sense at all but I just wanted to vent about how I feel on this situation.
EDIT: Downvotes were expected as this post is not very informational and more just typing what comes to my head, all good!

where did you get that info. last i checked there wasn't a single critical piece on trump in the top 100 excluding the top post.
n/a 7x17 2017-01-11
Yeah as I concluded this didn't make much sense and it was mostly referring to the top post. There have been miniature occurrences of Trump criticism but not significant apart from the latest scandal. Personally I am not pro any political party/official etc. and I believe there's something bigger behind the scenes that have greater power.

You're witnessing divide and rule in action. People argue over Trump and Hilary all the while the people with the real power carry on as normal.
It's sad to see so many people fall for it.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
I don't wish to carry on some pro or anti trump agenda. I guess my intention is just to be conscious of what is going on. It seems like we haven't done a great job exposing the real power. I believe they have operations through out all the branches. So why not keep a close eye on our president-elect?
n/a contrapasta 2017-01-11
The president is a figurehead. He's a distraction.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
Could he also be a window as well?
n/a fat_osvaldo 2017-01-11
They're plotting the next story in their manufacturing consent narrative to get us into Syria.

I want to know how much these fuckers are getting paid. It can't be more than minimum wage can it? Maybe it's because I'm young and full of pride, but I wouldn't be doing what they are doing for minimum wage.
n/a WooTs_67 2017-01-11
$100 says they are from overseas. No way they would pay minimum wage for this shit.
n/a lostelite39119 2017-01-11
Breaks my heart to think about little Chinese kids who don't know any better getting paid a penny every time they copy and paste a talking point.
n/a contrapasta 2017-01-11
Robots.
n/a lostelite39119 2017-01-11
True too. Ugh, the whole thing is just ridiculous.
n/a WooTs_67 2017-01-11
Most of them are gone now. Obviously they used this sub to get as many of the same story on r/all as possible. I think that the thread here got up to #4 on all. Included that with all the other subs like r/news, worldnews and politics. The front pages was full of this article
They posted the buzzfeed article (lol) then went insane with upvotes. Also upvoting all the CTR-like comments. Thousands of them came in and it was coordinated.
Its fucking crazy and I dont think it is the last of it. We will probably continue to see this shit happen here
There is just not enough of us to offset their brigade

Deal with it. The PEOTUS has a conspiracy against him with CIA backing. This is more credible than any "Pizza" post.
Cry CTR all you want, but I'm in it for the truth.
n/a papayabobby 2017-01-11
This is why we don't take that thread seriously. It's filled with people like you who belittle every other conspiracy theory except those that won't challenge your safe space bluepilled reality. Even now, there are people that are making fun of Pizzagate on that thread. Completely disrespectful. Also, we have good reason to not believe anything the MSM says. They've been wrong about everything for the past year and have been basically proven to be WORKING FOR the DNC/Globalists. This Russian hacker bullshit is just another story they made up to delegitimize Trump.
n/a 7x17 2017-01-11
You make good points and I appreciate you trying to expose people like him but that is not the right approach. We must listen to what people have to say before making any judgements. Ask them for explanations backed up with sources and then reply in the same way. Good points though once again but hatred and tension isn't the way to go unless its the only way.
n/a Poem_for_some_tard 2017-01-11
If you believe Pizzagate, you're a brainless RedPilled fuckwit. There is no credibility towards it and it only serves to push a false narrative. Dude actually admitted to sexually assaulting women, so I don't know why this is so far-fetched for you. Pull your head out of his ass cuck.
n/a 7x17 2017-01-11
Calm down, please. You show weakness in not being able to consider other sides to a story. The use of violence and obscenities are a clear indication of ignorance and loss. If you were a regular here you would know against forcing hostility.
n/a Poem_for_some_tard 2017-01-11
Nah. You're just on the wrong side of history. Your attempt at trying to claim moral high ground is a joke and you'll never realize it because you're too far gone. Your brain has turned into a pile of goop that only appreciates brain-washed nationalism and it makes you a tool. History will not look favorably on you my friend.

"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Not you.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
oi! we have a prophet here!
n/a illBoopYaHead 2017-01-11
Why are your jimmies so rustled over pizzagate? What makes you think it's fake? Care to provide some evidence?
n/a Poem_for_some_tard 2017-01-11
Burden of proof lies with the accuser, and since there isn't any, your query is invalid.
n/a WooTs_67 2017-01-11
Same can be said about your "russian hacker" theory
n/a contrapasta 2017-01-11
Query?
n/a Poem_for_some_tard 2017-01-11
Yeah?
n/a Ambiguously_Ironic 2017-01-11
Rule 10, only warning.
n/a 7x17 2017-01-11
Can you please then give a thorough explanation of this conspiracy against Donald Trump with credible sources. I am all for listening and then making my own judgement.

Buzzfeed said the opposite. I wonder who we should believe...
n/a Mrexreturns 2017-01-11
Don't be fooled by them; Shills and bots are attacking this sub at full force. Plus the "unverified allegation" tag should explain by itself.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
Well maybe their tactics worked this time. they concentrated on one thread hyperinflated it and then we responded by upvoting a bunch of similar threads attacking it. now we are oversaturated in threads condemning it. Maybe there is becoming a genuine increase in interest to conspiracies.
n/a Mrexreturns 2017-01-11
So you suggest we ignore them? I believe it won't work.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
I don't think i would suggest that. just speculating on possible motives. It seemed like they concentrated on one thread. Maybe we could have responded by a concentrated effort on a thread of our own instead of oversaturating our top threads with much of the same.
n/a Mrexreturns 2017-01-11
I see. So just concentrate it on one thread. But problem is even thewisest people don't always take attention of the details and make like 2 to 3 threads on mistake.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
I don't if my suggestion would be correct. That's why I'm here to develop my understanding of the maleficence in this world and maybe to aide in the development of tactics to bring about the light of benevolence. Do you think the way we went about it could have dismayed potential truth seekers?
n/a Mrexreturns 2017-01-11
Not really. We might as well as let other people know about it without cluttering the frontpage: Like 1 major post about it.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
Well if they used the same tactics as they do in /r/politics in a conspiracy sub don't you think it would become pretty obvious.
n/a Mrexreturns 2017-01-11
This is already pretty obvious to the open eye to see.
n/a Hubris_elite 2017-01-11
I disagree that the full scope of their tactics is plain to see.
n/a hnicgibbs 2017-01-11
its happening /gif
??
but 2017 just started. i thought we had till fall or winter. barely the 2nd week. if they waited this long, surely they can wait a little longer ffs.
n/a InTheseDays 2017-01-11
Not to worry, they'l lose their way when the funding dries up.
Nothing good ever came from "buzzfeed" anyhow.
It'll all be over in two weeks....besides, spring break is coming and they'll be drawn by the smell of fruit drinks and suntan oil.
Talking about you, shill assholes.
n/a Poem_for_some_tard 2017-01-11
Yeah?
