I have seen it as well

Filter by new rather than top rated then make your own judgement on the post.

I prefer trending

new posts wont make trending if they are devoted upon submission

Alright, I blew this off at first but now what I'm seeing is odd. Most posts sitting around 55% or less (which is fine if their shit posts) but some are of these are just legit posts about studies we should be informed about.

Shareblue have an end of month downvote quota?

This should be on top, everyone's laughing at the guy but something weird is definitely happening.

On 4/26 I think Reddit went down a total of 3 times. I know it went down at least once but for me it messed up 3 times. I'm not sure if anyone else noticed this.

Unfortunately this doesn't really bother me. I could care less what I say that gets down voted. If this is an attempt to get people to stop posting here it is just going to fail miserably to the hardcore conspiracy reddit people.

You COULDN'T care less?

The fire rises

Seems to be coinciding with this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/681ga5/repeatedly_removed_from_voat_hypershilled/

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/681f1t/repeatedly_removed_from_voat_please_save_this/

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/6816pd/hooray_for_pizza_day_the_best_day_of_the_week/

So far 4 posts getting upvoted in the past 6 or so hours. Mine and yours talking about the downvotes, then 2 posts by the same guy regarding Pizzagate.

Here is how to fight stealth downvoting. Go to your settings for Reddit. Look at your comments setting. Look for:

don't show me comments with a score less than [ ] (leave blank to show all comments)

If you have a number in the box erase it. Then, no matter how low comments gets downvoted, you will still see them all.

Doesn't reddit go on maintenance fairly regularly?

No not really.

Yeah it does, like a couple times a year...

Yes, once or twice a year, usually as a surprise.

How could they make it not a surprise? It seems to be late at night US time, when traffic is low. I doubt it's worth it to really devote resources to try telling people it's going down for a few hours a year.

http://www.redditstatus.com/history

Suggests more

Wow, that's really interesting. I didn't know that existed. I really shows quite a few regularly.

Now all i need is concrete proof.

I think that's a pretty important part of constructing a theory.

Proof? In /r/conspiracy?

This place is exclusively for rampant speculation and hyperbole.

Don't be a moron. There are plenty of stupid ass posts with no proof but there are also plenty of well structured posts that have a lot of proof and evidence to back them up.

For example, Pizza/PedoGate. If you spend some time actually looking through sources, evidence and doing some of your own research you can see there is mountains of evidence that point towards it. No concrete proof like "x is a pedo here is a pic of it" but A LOT of evidence pointing towards it.

"bring your kids so they can play in the pool, there will be plenty of entertainment" AA HA, PROOF theyre all pedos !

get a fookin life man.

Thanks for solidifying my point that you clearly have not done enough research.

clearly. maybe i should get up to speed like the gun wielding MAGA eedjit that shot up the place because he couldnt find the child rape room in the basement.

Yea the guy who had an IMDB page and shot a single bullet through a wall into a computer hard drive yea?

According to reports he shot a single bullet or he shot multiple shots. Pretty easy to know if you heard 1 or multiple shots.

I mean obviously you will blow off the facts as silly because mainstream newspapers said some dumb shit.

The guy who's father is a politician connected to the Democrats?

Did not know that at all to be fair actually, what was his name? Edgar Maddison Welch?

Do you have any evidence at all that the hard drive, specifically, was damaged? Also, who cares if he has an IMDB page?

Who cares of his imdb page? That is a huge piece of info that supports the likelihood of the event being a staged false flag.

How so? It just means the person worked on a film or some kind of media, nothing more.

that's not an accurate quote and you know it.

I could give an equal amount of proof that (pick any group/agency) is actually doing (pick any illegal/shady activity).

Are the Cincinnati Reds actually running an exotic animal smuggling ring? Are the Girl Scouts of America really running a mind-control scheme? You can make up anything and then go find some bullshit that "proves" it.

Both of those are equally true as Pizzagate.

I don't think either of those have evidence which involves official leaked emails that were used in a court case that are linked to Hilary Clinton do they?

Actually when you look at the list of code words that an autistic teenager made up and posted on 4chan, you'll see that they are both true actually.

For example, when you're looking at the Reds

Shortstop=illegally poached panda ERA=shipment of stolen animals Starting pitcher=elephant meat

These things came from 4chan, so obviously they are true and not made up. The rabbit hole goes much, much deeper.

Official emails from people linked to Hilary Clinton? Official CIA documents informing of what symbols these people use?

No you are attempting to debunk a very well structured theory with valid pieces of evidence and a strange amount of coincidences that all seem to add up with some bullshit theory you read and want to compare the two

The same anonymous teenager who started 4chan with his (totally not made up) code words has also posted code words proving that the Cincinnati Reds are running an exotic animal smuggling operation. You can see this in the official documents from the Reds and Major League Baseball (which is covering for the Reds, obviously).

You can be an anti-exotic animal shill all you want, but this theory is just as real and just as founded as Pizzagate. They come from the same source, what more do you want?

Where's the official CIA/FBI document validating the code words and symbols then?

That's what I want. Not a 4Chan page.

Don't even bother. Pedo protector.

Oh yea the guy who's looking at all the evidence available that shows that there are a lot of high up politicians that could possibly be involved in a pedo ring is the "protector".

If you were any dumber we would have to water you.

I could of been more clear. I was talking about pesci. sorry for the misunderstanding.

Funny a guy named "unofish" would show up trying to protect a giant animal smuggling operation. I'm sure that's totally a coincidence.

Oh god he found me..haelp

Where's the official CIA/FBI document validating the code words and symbols then?

Where's the same validating the codewords used in PizzaGate?

Here's the link https://wikileaks.org/wiki/FBI_pedophile_symbols

Do a search. You won't find pizza anywhere on there. The FBI documents covered the symbols for boy love, but in no way confirmed or even mentioned pizza.

The pizza connection was made by 4chan users, as /u/JoePesciOfGoneFishin mentioned. But PG proponents have conflated the two, and now go around claiming that the FBI corroborated the code words.

I already linked it to someone at some point.

It's the symbols used that relate to Besta and Comet.

Also in the Clinton emails there are plenty of examples of code words being used and there just isn't any reasonable explanation for them otherwise.

The napkin one stands out.

Also in the Clinton emails there are plenty of examples of code words being used and there just isn't any reasonable explanation for them otherwise. The napkin one stands out.

How do you know they are code words?

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/32795

Explain to me why for one, anyone would care about a single napkin or handkerchief left behind.

And why it has a "pizza related map" on it?

That whole interaction is fucking weird.

And there's more examples if you do what other people haven't done, look.

What kind of rock do you live under where this conversation counts as weird?

Explain to me why for one, anyone would care about a single napkin or handkerchief left behind.

Why link the email then mention "napkin" at all, to try and throw some shade? But he didn't care.

And why it has a "pizza related map" on it?

No idea, because they're a thing? You can find just about anything on a handkerchief.

That whole interaction is fucking weird.

What's weird about a realtor finding an item left behind and asking about sending it on? And then Podesta not caring.

What do you think it all means?

Considering all the coincidences this whole group has been in I just don't think it happens to be a coincidence anymore that these particular words are used.

What particular words?

Pizza, Handkerchief(black and white). There's more examples of them if you aren't convinced by a single email.

Also code words for particular things pedo.

Just go look yourself.

Pizza

What does "pizza" mean, is it code, what is the source of this code / your reasoning for picking out this word?

Handkerchief(black and white)

Are you referring to handkerchief code amongst the gay community? If so, what does a black and white handkerchief left in a home represent amongst the pedophile community

Also code words for particular things pedo.

So the above aren't actually "things pedo?" So what are these code words and the source or reasoning that causes you to say they're indeed a code?

Just go look yourself.

How does this work? Do I pick a word, search the emails to see if it's used more than x times, decide that must mean it has some relation to pedophilia / is code for something related to pedophilia, then decide on a meaning?

I searched the emails for "burger," this appears 332 times vs. 149 for "pizza," I can't decide between whether that means the act of a child being sandwiched between two pedophiles, or it's code for a 'husky' child.

I don't know why they would mention a handkerchief, but the most obvious reason is because it's actually a handkerchief, and the pizza related map is a description of what's on the handkerchief.

It is only suspicious if pizza and handkerchief are codewords, and the only evidence for those codewords comes from 4chan, not FBI documents.

youre doing the lords work

LMAO every fucking time with the "i-its from 4chan so it MUST be made up".

The code words go all the way back to the beginning of 4chan (Which was in 2004 I believe). And maybe they existed before then.

This is like saying because a teenager called weed "Pot" it's impossible that it would be code a adult would use. This whole argument is completely fucking retarded and it's so obvious it's specifically used for people who have only heard of 4chan as "The bad part of the internet", So they automatically believe the argument.

REMINDER: There is a MOUNTAIN of coincidental evidence supporting Pizzagate. Take half a hour looking at even a tiny bit of that evidence and then think of the fucking chances of it being fake.

Brother, I'm in total agreement. 4Chan isn't a bad source at all, after all they did uncover the Reds animal smuggling ring right after uncovering pizzagate

Ok so you don't have a argument, So your just gonna keep going with your little "reds animal smuggling" skit.

Lazy shill.

Are you saying the 4chan codewords are not real evidence?

You seem awful invested in covering for these animal smuggling bastards, for some strange reason.

I have screen caps of sick fucks on forums using this code language from years ago. I'll be releasing a full length pizza gate doc. Of course i'll leave you to down vote it and never actually watch it ;). I know you're just a triggered liberal and you just go on here to troll.

People who don't agree with me must be paid shills!

It is extremely obvious when someone is a shill from the argument he used.

It's not difficult to figure this out.

hahaha i like how this guy only looks at the evidence the New York Times and Snopes "debunked" and then tries to obfuscate it with some random theory he made up to prove a flimsy point

Are the Girl Scouts of America really running a mind-control scheme?

When I see what the cookies cost, I think you might be onto something.

Interesting theory, please "prove" one of these made up things to us.

exactly. its working backwards, its cheating from a theory standpoint. the evidence points to a theory, you dont come up with the theory first then try to justify it. In this case:

Whats the worst thing we can accuse somebody of?

Now lets justify it

bullshit.

OK, so even I hate the "burden of proof" arg... prove [provide evidence] of either of your claims vs dutrox or franklin.

Fuck your arg. its fucking lame. dutrox and franklin are real. this is real. your statement should get you hit in the face with a shovel.

I've asked for the best four or five pieces of evidence and it always starts with a list of take-out foods that staffers frequently eat in DC. That town runs on pizza and whatnot. But its just gotta be pedo code, which somehow every person in pizzagate following supposedly knows.

The main problem with PedoGate is people are too focused on a single pizza place in DC being the centre of it all. Obviously it fucking isn't, that should be fairly obvious. It was just the first one to raise suspicions.

The code which is seen multiple times in the Clinton Emails is here https://wikileaks.org/wiki/FBI_pedophile_symbols

Dude, have you ever in your life tried to trademark a logo? It has to be something that no one has trademarked or similar enough to possible be confused with one. Local businesses choose unique and strange logos all the time. A lot of times its a reference to something that isn't immediately obvious, but having nothing to do with something nefarious.

Take East Side Pies logo here in Austin. Infodorks started camping out and harassing these poor folks (who are friends of friends of mine and make damn good pizza) because they claimed it was a reference to the illuminati or some such shit and therefore just haaaaad to be part of pizzagate. Isn't it such a coincidence that a part of the pizza pedo conspiracy just happens to be in the hometown of Alex Jones, where he and most of his staff live? Amazing! The truth is that East Side Pies abbreviates to ESP and so the logo is a riff on that.

You can take some coincidences and make some story up with zero additional evidence if you want. But others of us want something concrete. If its such a large ring, why have no children come forward? Why do enthusiasts make stupid claims like the presence of a basement in the pizza place, which has no basement?

And this is exactly what I'm talking about. That's for the demo.

There is plenty of other evidence along with the fact of the logos of the two pizza places located near each other. Official pedo code words being used in official linked emails of people involved with the Clintons, people being charged with child trafficking in Hati being pardoned and then being put on Hilary's campaigns, the people who own the land those pizza places are.

I could go on and on but I'm not prepared to unload all the evidence I have read into this thread because it would take too long and if you really want to debunk the whole claim look at the evidence for yourself and provide a reason for each and everyone single piece of evidence that is a very odd coincidence.

What are "official pedo code words"? And what makes them "official"?

Serious question, not rhetorical.

https://wikileaks.org/wiki/FBI_pedophile_symbols

http://pizzagate.wiki/Pedophile_codes

http://pizzagate.wiki/Chicken_Hawk:_Men_Who_Love_Boys

Official enough?

In the second link, there is no source for the "code words." they're just listed there with no reference as to how they are "official." Can you maybe explain where the code words come from and what makes them official? Because your link blows donkey sick.

I have not, nor will I ever, have sexual relations with that donkey.

So, why is "blows donkey dick" used? A link is a collection of letters, formatted so that a computer can understand it. How can a collection of letters suddenly go, and fellate a donkey?

Or, is it that you admit that in your usage of slang, you try to convey an idea using words that have a predefined meaning, to express a new idea, that you do not explicity want to stat out? Oh, wow, it is allmost like using slang conveys more that you are on the "inside" of a group, making self referential messages that are not easily understandable to the non initiated.

Wow, if there only was a source that tracked current slang....

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cheese+pizza

It is allmost as if 4-chan is the only readily available source for slang, as their userbase used to be quite diverse and interested in all sort of obtruse shit.

Psst... I'm going to let you in on a little secret:

The words "cheese pizza" (together) are never actually used in any of the emails. That's right. The only term you can actually prove existed before PG doesn't actually appear in the emails.

Look it up yourself: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/

r/iamverysmart

Oh.....

nonsensical username? Check.

Redditor since under a month ago? 11 days ago? check.

Snarky comments that reek of officially approved style? Check.

"suggest that thinking for yourself makes you ripe for /r/iamverysmart" Check.

Either, you are the worlds worst troll, and want to evade a reccent ban by using a "fresh" account....

Or, I should recommend you to /r/totallynotrobots/ .

You are proving my point. Someone on 4chan literally made of up as a joke and now it's accepted as fact with no evidence that I've seen.

But you offered a ridiculous self-referential "source" as evidence.

It's true because the people who made it up say it's true!

"Someone on 4chan literally made of up as a joke"

If you criticise me with an official sounding declaration, would you mind showing me where it says so?

Because I could not find a single source for your claim, and would honestly be interrested in how you managed to track down what an anonymous user in a messageboard who posted that wrote. Maybe you have access to trackers, maybe you have elite hacking tools, who knows. The possibilities are endless.

But if you use refferences like "an unnamed expert said, without revealing his evidence", then I would call bullshit on your "fact" the same way you called bullshit on my "fact".

https://static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/2016/12/07/pizzagate/daaa6b3b2a4ae2f0d1d1a18456d77ed4436b8ca0/images/4chan-terms.png

Thanks!

AAAh, so you have an autist from 4-chan showing interrest in a word is evidence that they made it up? What was that about not taking "Things 4channers take interrest in" for 100 as evidence?

Because if we take your pic of "They made that up for luls" as evidence, we could get into how unfair it is that we can't cite wikipedia as evidence, when there are edithathions to make wikipedia say what you want. I mean, by your own standarts, all you have is someone used the background of 4-chan, the iconic style, then wrote "Check out this double speak", and then send it to the new york times.

I still stand by my claim. If you can't defuse my argument without deeming 4-chan unreliable, or "fake", but then come up with why what 4-chan wrote is actually relevant, hell, what do you want? Is 4-chan in or out as a reliable source?

This is some impressive double-think.

cheese pizza was a legit code word from before this whole thing. I'm not sure where the others came from though.

Explain epstein, hastert, the emails, heavy breathing,sex stains, james instagram pictures (also pizza references to SEX), tonys art, johns art, dyncorp connections, marina spirit cooking Etc.

Thank you for being a voice of reason.

The problem is that once it was proven that the pizza place had no basement or kidnapped kids, people had to move the goalposts. Gotta move on to the stuff without evidence against it.

People get really focused on the one place because they want to be -because they're brain washed drones who don't want it to be true.

When in reality, elite pedophilia is a documented and KNOWN thing - but let's be a fucking moron and focus on a pizza shop (and not evem the emails)

Where is that code seen in the Clinton emails?

Seriously? It's the way they talk about the food. I can give you 5 emails which are about food talked about in very strange sentences. You can try to explain them if you want. Also email about a torture chamber, kids with their ages mentioned being in a heated pool for older mens entertainment etc.

You're getting downvoted for speaking the truth. Anyone who has seen the evidence as you and I have, especially those coded instagram pictures, would be led to one logical conclusion. These sick fucks are practically rubbing their evil deeds in our faces, it's so obvious.

Exactly. Thank you.

Have you ever had a job that communicated frequently by email? You have no idea what they are referencing. "That's weird to me" isn't "clearly they are raping kids!"

Why are you here if you obviously don't believe what the many here do believe in.

Sounds like you're wasting your time....or on the clock

Interesting. I've always thought of forums as places to discuss. I didn't realize that some of you thought that one side of the discussion was proper or relevant or belonged or whatever.

no, are you open to the possibility that you are the one who is wrong.

discuss anything you want... but dont be so married to your convictions, I shant to mine.

but the mountain of evidence is in favor of thinking there is some bullshit happening.....

dutroux affair, franklin, hastert, lolita express, etc, etc, etc....

anyone denying this is just ill-informed. period.

Sure, I could be wrong, but that's not the point. I'm not the one suggesting that someone who disagrees with me should leave the forum. Right or wrong, that is my point.

Have you ever had a job that communicated frequently by email?

absolute bullshit... I have ONLY ever had jobs that communicates by email, IRC, Slack, Text... no FUCKING single person speaks like this as a course of language that is common.

UNLESS they are speaking in code...

We have our own codes, as an example "device" means 'X' and we can email about devices all day...

youre assuming we are idiots.... we are not.

I looked into that pizzagate thing, and I was blown away at the amount of shit I found. That no investigation has actually taken place say as much as any investigation could.

That no investigation has actually taken place say as much as any investigation could.

This is the dumbest logic and I see it all the time on /r/conspiracy.

The fact that the MSM is not covering it means it's real!

The fact that no has produced any proof means there must be proof out there!

The fact that no one believes us means we must be right!

It's terrible logic. You want to know why an investigation hasn't taken place for PG? Because there's zero evidence of a crime (which is what you need to begin investigating).

The MSM one always cracks me up because it gets used big ways.

MSM is covering something - it's a distraction, they're just covering up, you can't believe them!

MSM doesn't cover something - it's a distraction, they're just covering something up, you can't believe them!

Whether they cover it or not, it's always a conspiracy because they did/didn't cover it

This is played out throughly on the r/AskTrumpSupporters subreddit. No matter what trump says or does, it was the right thing. Perfect example; he just recently decided he's going to stick with nafta. Suddenly shockingly, that's a good thing with trump supporters. Check the threads, you can't make this shit up.

plenty of well structured posts that have a lot of proof and evidence to back them up.

Pizza/PedoGate

LOL

The truth always comes out 24 hours later in the comments section once all these visitors leave

trust me, it's fake, ok. Just, you're wasting energy on this, creating negative emotions foryourself and others who read your words. It's fake. There definitely must be pedo politicians in washington, but i have two theories - this whole pizzagate thing was a political bogus show to screw hillary, because she indeed might be related to some pedos. 2nd possibility, it was a fake news event, but the motive was to draw a real fireline. By burning a strip of land so to say, they warned and shut down all the pedos and politicians who might have been getting more and more engaged by this...bloody unspeakable allegation.

Where I also criticize rampant speculation and hyperbole

Do you believe that Russian information operations changed the outcome of the election?

I dont believe there has been evidence enough to believe it.

At this point that's probably the most defensible position.

they definitely tried. do you think the russians are running propaganda campaigns in every arena they hope to have an influence on politics and public opinion?

I expect every government to make some attempt at influencing public opinion in a target country when the circumstances suggest that a government's leadership has sufficient interest in supporting or preventing a particular political outcome. Whether such attempts will have a material impact is a separate inquiry.

How would you judge the impact

I'd determine which specific activities I could attribute to the government in question with a reasonable degree of certainty, then speculate over the magnitude of the impact from those activities, while keeping in mind that the magnitude of the impact will vary geographically and significantly depend on the complex interactions of various prevailing themes in existence just prior to zero hour for the planned mission, all the while recognizing that the hypothesis supposing enough of an impact to change the election outcome cannot be falsified through empirical or any other means.

would you base your reaction on the effect of those actions or the intent?

Any information operation is intended to influence the target population. The important details would be the specific resources and methods employed. Accurate information regarding those factors would help inform how best to prioritize the interests of the American people when dealing with Russia going forward. Never react.

"How best to prioritize the interests of the American people" is a topic of substantial disagreement among Americans.

Someone in a sub with ~500,000 readers disagreed with my opinion?

That can ONLY mean brigading/stealth bots/censorship/etc... It's not that my post wasn't up to snuff or was rambling, it was an organized effort by THEM!

People actually think that they're important enough that people are out to get them. Like the "deep state" is sitting refreshing their user page on reddit so they can downvote their post because it could bring the whole system down.

I could see the establishment doing the reverse, upvoting various conspiracy theories in these subs to distract from real conspiracies.

Promote chem trails while signing an executive order to allow coal companies to dump chemicals in rivers directly. Also planes are emmiting toxic substances... it's CO2 and our world is baking but no one beer cares about how the republicans are going to dismantle any climate change initiatives at the behest of large fossil fuel companies. The sec state was the president of Exon mobil.

Pizzagate and Clinton foundation stuff while the government swamp is filled twice deeper. Sketchy Russia connections. Out in the open nepotism. Erdawan just gave himself dictatorial powers and trump congratulated him becuase he has towers in Istanbul... same with the Philippines etc. Remember Flynn who promoted pizza gate was an actual foreign agent.

Right now democracy and freedom are at risk around the world. Erdawan seized control, dueterte is murdering people outright, Venezuela is in rebellion. Governments are generating fake news, monitoring communications, tampering with other countries elections. Big companies run the show. People are dying from opiates while for profit prisons make money on millions of young men on weed convictions.

But this sub has found the real deal... the earth is flat, D.C. elite are torturing and diddling kids in ironically named pizza shops, planes are spreading mind control agents, the Rothchilds and elders of Zion are secretly out to neuter the rest of the world... the powers the be probably make upvote bots for these sites/forums.

this guy gets it

Yup, now we just need to break away from this ridiculous place and form a more reasonable community for the conspiracy-minded individuals who are sick of the constant pizzagate/flat earth/"satanism" bullshit. This subreddit has become to the tabloid/stereotype of how the mainstream views conspiracy theorists.

make one, i'll join. i'm the wrong kind of guy to make, maintain and mod a subreddit.

Yeah! We should create our own subreddit, with blackjack, and a man on the grassy knoll!

We have. It's on Voat.

Companies, governments, politicians use social media and complex algorithms to deliver specific content, fake information, and marketing aimed at you... you think you make your own decisions while you are flooded with microtargeted ads and content follow you on the web.

Everything is about reducing people to consumers. Latest fashions for clothes you do not need, pictures of airbrushed models to make you insecure and buy cosmetics and sumpplements... everything geared to insercutiry, a constent need for more stuff to fill a void.

Everything reduced to a torrent of short sound bites... people get used to this torrent and are unable to do complex long cognitvely intensive tasks.

Pizzagate is a classic example. Its either an oganic outgrowth of a preconditioned popoulation or actively pushed narrative by some entity.

Basically snippets of information, intrigue, linked to together with loose associations. No time intesive cognitevely complex information.. rather just intuitive random associations. Add in the aura of mystique by adding in nefarious organizations and leading political oepratives.

Tap into a national dislike and distrust of the hilary campaign. Also, emotionally charge it... pedophiles using innocent kids.

Add in an an anti establishment pro trump angle... and people take this hook line and sinker. Promoted on some sites (infowars whose star admitted to it being an act) to some people in positions of power (flynn, aka russian agent)... and it gets credence.

Then 100s of people on the internet do "research"... aka image searches and simple good searches, and then spin them into the narrative.

All fun except this distracted from an election where trump describes walking in on changing teen Ms USA contestants and groping women without consent... where he has sold our country out to foreign and corporate interests.

All fun until some ass shows upto comet ping pong with a gun...

All fun until people's busnisses and empoyes suffer...

We got played and now coal companies can dump chemicals into water ways, big oil will get their pipeline so they can get canadian oil to ports to ship to other countries, defense contractors get more orders, healthcare to poor people gets cut, erdawans get licence to do what he wants in Turkey, private prisons get a break, marijuana is not getting legalized at a federal level while sessions is in charge, we bombed syria, companies and rich people will get tax breaks blowing holes in our deficit while poor people dont, and not action on climate change, social programs to help the opiate epidimic are under attack...

You got played r/conspiracy and some small independent pizza shops took the brunt (papa johns thanks you btw).

your writing and style is definitely top notch, but i can't tell if you're being over dramatic (i do too sometimes) or what? yes, believe me pizzagate is all fake, pushed by the establishment to discredit itself, in whose eyes? don't ask! it was just a bogus thing. Trump is fine, the bits of dirt here and there don't stick like the way the entire career of hillary clinton is a big pile of shit. yes the net is bad, but you also have ad blockers if you think you're being played. you're not actually, google doesn't WANT to find you and screw you. It knows you by search strings you have searched and it is programmed to give you the ads related to what you search. Sure, maybe you know more about all this, but it just seems you know you're being dramatic, but your words...they're spreading real...discontent.

Trump is only fine because he has been incompetent. He has sold out the government, bombed Syria, done nothing of what he promised but has made sure big companies can pollute, appointed an AG who thinks canabis is evil, proposed a healthcare plan that was more costly and worse than obama care, proposed cutting taxes for the wealthy and corporations, plans to gut the EPA, destroyed climate change intiatives, wants to cut funding for science, cut funding for combatting the opiate epidimic, set a new low for nepotism in the govement, spends millions of federal tax dollars on trips for himself and his family, set a new standard for hiding conflicts of interest... I mean what has Trump done to promote transparancy, the common persons interests, roll back the military industrial complex???

all the good leaders putin bennetanyahu trump are listening to Divinity, can you trust yhat? the day englend and saudi arabia are brought to justice is very near.

Then it would be nice of him to share... because at the moment the adjectives that come to mind with trump is incompetent, inconsistent, autocratic, nepotistic, liar.

that's the idea, bruh ka

cool pov. thanks. needed this, to feel helpless again. i could go on and on on how to think and deal with this, present "system", but you seem to have it under control, good!

Under control? No, just trying to grab as much of the pie as I can without selling out my convictions. Just like everyone else.

No sane person is going to run for office or get power because it is impossible to penetrate the average consumer citzen.

Years of lies mean no one is willing to listen to complex points or naunce. Consumer voters won't listen to bad news. No one wants to change. Coprotations are geared to short term profits and reward sociopaths.

Coroporations, religions, special intersts seak to dismantle the insitutions of western democracy... and the public goes with it and as income inequality grows the voice of the people further shrinks. Companies have their own voices now protect by SCOTUS and billions to amplify it.

We have lost touch with the enlightenment principles upon which our governemnt is founded. We look backwards instead of forwards. Americans and Europeans, softened by years of plenty cannot even comprehend how bad things can get.

The iceberg is ahead, the band keeps playing, the party goes on for now, this ship cannot sink... right?

What is extra ironic is that that Exxon Secretary of State is one of the only cabinet members to actually believe in climate change.

But only in private emails where his name was changed...

this. a guy getting paid by a foreign govt was selected as national security advisor (and lied about it) and we're still looking at a gay dudes risque instagram. where do we go to talk about conspiracies where the word 'satan' or 'zionism' doesnt come up instead of 'greed' and 'power lust' (the real motivation for conspiracies)

Perfectly said. I always thought the same about 9/11 conspiracies. Oh let's focus on some bullshit YouTube video trying to prove the airplanes were fake, but let's not look into why all the hijackers were Saudi and we don't dare do shit to Saudi Arabia.

Bang on the bonce

Who is following me then?!?!

A sub with 500,000 readers is sure to attract paid shills. Why would someone take time out of their day to defend a place that is known to censor and edit information, on a conspiracy sub of all places? Your attempts to discredit the OP are too transparent.

Who is following me then?!?!

If I had a dollar for every time I've read this bullshit comment I'd have enough cash to start my own reddit.

Remember April 26th? Seems like it was just yesterday...

That false flag nuclear attack on a major US city was crazy

The EMP must have wiped out memories

Actually that's an important part in determining results. It has nothing to do with formulating a theory.

...Lawyerd

Actually that's an important part in determining results. It has nothing to do with formulating a theory.

Actually it kind of does.

theory n 1: a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world; an organized system of accepted knowledge that applies in a variety of circumstances to explain a specific set of phenomena; "theories can incorporate facts and laws and tested hypotheses"; "true in fact and theory" 2: a tentative insight into the natural world; a concept that is not yet verified but that if true would explain certain facts or phenomena; "a scientific hypothesis that survives experimental testing becomes a scientific theory"; "he proposed a fresh theory of alkalis that later was accepted in chemical practices" [syn: hypothesis, possibility, theory]

I'm actually glad to see this. I think too often genuinely possible conspiracies are diluted by unsubstantiated claims and the refusal of any requests for proof

Hmmmm I take your point.

You're thinking of a hypothesis, not a theory.

Yes true. I was just using the same terminology as OP.

Roasted

this has been happening to r/t_d for months, go ask them

Obama's fault

Well wouldn't the proof turn the theory fact?

Only if it conclusively proves it beyond a reasonable doubt.

Or a trusted source that has a record of proving them later. I like have leaked video game info in more reputable then most conspiracy theories these days. Just because they actually have a list of trusted anonymous sources that have proven track records of being right later on.

constructing a theory

The word you're looking for is hypothesis. Some proof is required for a hypothesis to become a theory, irrefutable proof if required for it to become fact.

Yeah, when I got to that line it just made me realize that what's really attacking r/conspiracy are dumbasses. This sub used to make a lot of good points and connections. Now, it's just any idiot with a theory based on paranoia and "what if" scenarios.

Normally yes, but here it's optional.

Now all i need is concrete any proof at all.

Not here.

Actually it's not. Not at all.

Zero proof for a wild allegation? Sounds like you're in the right place.

Lets be honest, it was definitely down in order to implement something that will completely wipe out T_D. It's not until T_D goes down that this sub needs to worry. T_D is #1 on their hit list.

They were swapping out 3 databases from what they said.

Why believe reddit when you can believe rampant speculation with no evidence?

Other than the self fulfilling evidence that this will be downvoted and thus confirm OPs suspicions.

T_D is one of the leading factors in this sub going down the shitter.

this mentality is, actually

Hello The_Donald poster.

what do i post there? any hot takes or quotes to prove your claim or nah?

Cant make this up. Liberal women are calling thier own liberal men "cuckbois" now lmao. CUCKBOIS BTFO!

did i write that article?

Red herring, you claimed to not post T_D whaddaya know, you post on T_D frequently.

no, i asked you what i post there to see if you can substantiate your claims that td posters are a problem in this sub

Red herring, you claimed to not post T_D

I agree with his assessment. I don't post on t.D.

It's hilarious how conspiracies that criticize the US president magically stopped the second Trump got into office.

Good. Fuck T_D. Shit may as well be Stormfront.

This is a perfect example of why no one takes this sub seriously.

Just went through "new" on this sub upvoting everything. EVERYTHING is at 0...

There's some great content posted here, but to be fair, 90% of things deserve to be at 0.

90% of what's on the front page here should be at 0.

lol. I miss the days when this place wasn't almost all US politics.

Me too, but we all know why that is. They're messing with our minds by spreading their hateful partisan bs. It's not even funny how obvious it is.

We know what you're doing, reddit.

What's funny is this is exactly the kind of behavior that the vote-fuzzing algorithms exist for. Just wildly upvoting every post? Don't expect your upvotes to count. (same for down)

you mean they start attacking conspiracy websites now instead of 5-10 years ago? whoa i had no clue. breaking news to me, like snowden reminding me in a massive surveillance state. thx to the both of you for telling me things everyone already knows

They been doing that for a while. They have a horde of bots that submit only liberal propaganda and upvote only certain accounts.

only liberal propaganda

What's funny is how few people recognize that most of the conspiracy theories posted here end up espousing liberal propaganda.

They wouldnt need any of that. They control the databases, no bots no way of seeing the edits.

Just change a line or two and theyre good to go.

Simple. They want the impressions.

Compare it to me. Sure, I can get a forum up, and install 20 k bots on a server that upvote and downvote stuff, but that makes a lot of false impressions.

On the opposite end, if I install the bot network herder on my server, and tell someone, if you wanna manipulte the comments, just download an exit node, and leave it on your machine. Thus, if you wanna upvote, lets say, hillary clinton is the next messiah, 20,000 times, whil downvoting "I have had it with this motherfucking big government shills in this motherfucking sub", if you now use the bot herder, you would get 20.000 distributed machines and different IP's .

I mean, lets think this one step further.

The biggest problemn social media sites have is correct / active users. If I am one user, but have 50 accounts, the site gets 1 user, but 49 fake ones.

However, if I use a new IP for every account, and lets say space it out a bit, I am a step closer to being undistinguishable from real accounts. 50 "real" accounts, in advertising, are much more valuable then 49 fake accounts and 1 real one.

So, it is in the best interrests to clear up the number of fake accounts, but accounts that have a unique IP, don't post from macros, and so forth? Wow, that is indistinguishable from real accounts.

So, lets assume you are evil kenievel, and wanna post your stunts and upvote them too. You know, under the idea of, "advertisements". How would the company of reddit do this?

The problem becomes a bit worse if you assume the company is under watch. Not from outside (FBI, hackers, ect), but from inside as well (Disgruntled employees). So, you have to keep the number of people that "know" extremely small.

How about moving that bot herder outsuide of the company? How about placing it on the server of a different entity? How about having multiple of these?

Now, the company could be forensically investigated, all you would find is, the evil kenievel stunts were upvoted by 50 different people.

If you fucked with the databases, shit, people would know. people would get it. someone would blab, or just investigate out of curiosity, or something of the likes. And one insider to the company that blabs, and manages to substantiate it enough to give it credibility, and BOOM, you are done.

Here is where it gets interresting.

For years, we have seen that different organisations have "tools" for social media manipulation. Hell, they have a network for 50 k employees, most of them do their work dutifully, why should they pay to use reddits botheders when they could simply write their own? After all, a LT in langley and an LT in germany will not neccessarily complain if the network is a bit slow, if all they use their internet for is sending emails and occasionally watching some movies. If the network now says, you are part of the botnet, what's so bad about it? You log onto reddit, look up the herder, upvote and dowvote according to your work list, and you logg off again. you can do this with a script under 1 MB. Even pictures usually have more.

So, it would be in the best interrest of reddit to encourage this kind of behavior.

• it gives them plausible deniability ( we didn't know nothing)

• it gives them more unique views.

-it prevents the advertisers from exactly knowing how many impressions are fake and how many are true, thus driving up the price reddit can ask for advertisement.

A lot of posts get pasted/linked elsewhere where normal behavior and thought are dominant, then it draws outsiders here who begin downvoting everything with their rudimentary ideas of the world.

I've had my own posts sniped, posted elsewhere, and subsequently brigaded and when that happens the entire thread becomes spoiled with parrots spewing the established narrative.

That theory violates Occam's Razor. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor

This is a fucking conspiracy sub, take your occams razor somewhere else.

You need to learn some new adverbs, punk.

So that your mind will be at ease?

This is top of best with -5?

well, i guess our job is to reverse the cheating bastards' bot brigade. Consider it a public service to go into new and upvote posts.

haha the fuck did this get downvoted for? is upvoting new posts an unpopular idea?

At least now if we find some posts are instead upvoted, we know that it is FAKE NEWS

FUCK EM ! I will still be reading the new posts. Votes have almost no effect to me when it boils down to information being extracted. You guys should start following my footsteps. Why are you panicking about downvotes? Read the info-process it and then make up your own mind.

here is some proof i posted on a another thread. Upvoting all new posts only bring certain posts above zero. some stay a zero regardless of upvotes. haven't tried from multiple accounts yet.

My guess would be that it's a lot of people from r/all coming to see how r/conspiracy is reacting to the Alex Jones custody trial news.

People here hate Alex Jones, but at the very least, they need to admit that the destinies of everyone in the conspiracy theory community are tied with his.

He is our poster boy. You didn't vote for him, but he is our figurehead in the public eye right now, that's just the way it is.

It's bad enough that you pile on him with the rest of the mainstream media like the effigy he is, just from the other direction with insane theories that he's bill hicks kidnapped by the CIA and forced to be a disinformation agent.

You can at least admit that when shit is hitting the fan for him, the shit waves strike our shit shores.

When you're such a conspiracy theorist that even /r/conspiracy is a conspiracy

Yep, noticed this too. Everything in new is 0, it's crazy.

They seem to be downvoted beyond zero too. Upvoting doesn't even bring them to one.

Yeah! I noticed that a little later as well. Some posts are just stuck at 0.

Be careful that you don't confuse people downvoting your shitpost with 0 evidence as downvote bots

There's also likely other users here downvoting new stuff, either out of spite or to give the appearance of a conspiracy.

There's one person who has God knows how many accounts for vote manipulation, plus they actively collaborate with others. But it's only to combat CTR/Shareblue, apparently...

My retarded conspiracy theories are being downvoted... Must be bots.

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/682ejl/theory_the_veil_is_being_lifted_we_are_recieving/

Comments agreeing with my post are getting more upvotes than my actual post because, logic.

I've noticed that anytime someone creates a new thread topic about Pizzagate/Pedogate that it gets brigaded by trolls who post condescending messages, for the purposes of derailing or confusing anyone not familiar with the leaked Podesta emails or leaked Alefantis Instagram pics.

I've also noticed trolls come out in droves whenever there's a good thread topic about:

• Ron Paul - he talks a lot about the Military Industrial Complex & the Deep State, but "dissenters" come in to bash him or to bash the OP.

• Julian Assange - whenever someone posts something positive about him, such as one of his recent tweets, the trolls come out with their typical smears against him, saying he's a Russia spy or a Mossad spy.

• Tulsi Gabbard - whenever someone posts about her "Stop Arming the Terrorists" bill, the trolls come out to denounce her as being unpatriotic. The most vile trolls talk about her meeting with Assad, which they say make her a Russian puppet. Like, wtf??

This sub has been invaded by trolls or shills. For what purpose is anyone's guess. Paid trolls, bots programmed to post when key words are triggered, etc.

Or maybe people just feel that way

Thank you holy shit

thank YOU too mofo :D

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

Thank you holy shit

You missed the entire point. You can disagree, as can anyone else, but many of us are witnessing the "brigading" by trolls/shills to purposely derail threads.

My pet bot? Did you even check out that guy's user history?

Nice "quick" reply.

Never heard of RES?

Not going to answer my questions?

Probably not reddit, probably some private group (although I'm sure reddit looks the other way). There are organizations that run upvote and downvote bots.

the twerps from T_D have set their sights on this sub now that their pizzagate retardation has been purged.

LMAO you right now

Looking at the new tab currently would seem like this post is correct

No shit.

• Everyone that's been on this sub for longer than 5 minutes.

all I need is proof

Yes that is typically how these types of things work.

stop spending so much time on this site bro... you're loosing your mind.

You vastly overestimate the importance of this subreddit.

If the comment reflects an observation of less things that might appear as clutterspam or variations of a similar theme, there probably is a very good reason for the lack of that.

Is this a parody post?

The title is stated as fact, "this sub is being attacked".

Then the body of the post says "I believe..."

And the kicker, "Now all I need is concrete proof".

Hilarious.

It sounds like A CONSPIRACY!!!

Maybe, but this sub is also deeply split into liberals and alt-right posters that got banned from t_D. With such a diverse makeup it's not surprising that downvotes accumulate.

Yeah but like 25% of the people are actual critical thinkers and real people. The Donald and share blue trolls are so obvious here because there are plenty of critical thinkers.

Most of the alt reichs are from when they took down the alt right sub. They swarmed in here and now almost every post is nazi propaganda or anti hillary.

alt-right posters that got banned from t_D.

How does that even happen?

Make one slightly critical post about something he or his people do.

/r/new all over the site in general has people downvoting. This isn't new.

Now all i need is concrete proof.

The meme's are stronger than they ever were. This is why people think /r/conspiracy is a joke, people like you spouting off random paranoia with no proof of anything.

Honestly we are at the point where r/conspiracy needs to move to a new home. The amount of attacks by shills is already ridiculous and getting worse, and Reddit completely supports this kind of Orwellian censorship anyway. Really isn't that hard to go somewhere else or at least set up shop where the mods and users both can be more proactive about removing/banning shills without hamstringing themselves by not being allowed to call anyone out thanks to Rule 10.

Please don't leave it at this, friend.

The downvoting today is very strange and I'm too technically retarded to help you quantify this.

I promise you gold if you can put a better, sourced post up soon.

reddit was down last night, so many people likely searched "reddit maintenance" to determine if it was site wide. r/conspiracy was one of the top search results when i searched. i came here, and immediately saw tired "but my pizzagate theories!" shyte, and quickly got my downvote finger smoking hot. i'm guessing by the comments here that i wasnt the only one that reacted that way. mystery solved.

to clarify: I wasn't seeing it on pizzagate threads, though I guess a smoking hot downvote finger may be a bit harsher on other kinda-shitty posts that might otherwise have been scrolled past. I don't know. Just wish OP had some data.

I promise you gold if you can put a better, sourced post up soon.

Don't worry, you can save the five bucks

ha yep

Why do you believe this?

No it's not.

I'm actually curious why i don't see https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/67yx6i/renowned_intl_banker_says_he_was_ordered_to/ towards the top of this sub.

It's partisan horseshit that's why. I wanna see more of the posts like "debunking the attack on ecigs" the other day, or "more people are smoking mj than drinking and the gov. wants to keep profits high for booze co.s" Also 9/11, and similar stuff. Both the virulent anti-trump stuff AND the constant anti-hillary posts are so annoying. This isn't r/pol or r/t_d i don't know why so many people try to make it either one.

I'm not sure how an interview with a Dutch guy is partisan bullshit.

You guys need to drop the ego. We're not important enough to be attacked; we're already seen as crackpot fringe loonies thanks to pizza gate. Nobody cares enough about what we post here to try and manipulate the conversation.

Resident Deep Stater here. AMA!

This guy's pet bot broke down. LOL! Cat's out of the bag fellas!

Why are you trying to attack me like this?

This theory is dumb.

All you have to do is create a couple hundred users and a single bot. As long as your bot is white-listed (because as you know, you've always had to identify your bot via headers) your bot can use multiple users to do whatever it wants.

Now all I need is concrete proof.

Or downvotes happen because of dumb ass posts like this. "Now all I need is concrete proof" haha! Jesus this belongs in r/facepalm

This sub is THE WORST and you are stupid if you are think otherwise.

This guy gets it

It was me. I installed the downvoting bot. Prepare for all your favorite Reddit subs to get fucked.

this sub is attacked by shitty off topic posts and shit like you are posting here

Every time I see a post like, "THIS SUB HAS GONE TO SHIT" or "this sub is under attack" I always have to wonder, "How long long have you been here? Shit."
This forum is pretty similar to others in that they are all Ground Zero of the propaganda war's raging. I mainly like reddit because people are slightly less feral here than they are at GLP, for example which is so full of racists, shills and CJW's that it makes the /T_D seem Antifa in comparison.

People don't fully understand the role that conspiracy forums like this serve. As long as we're arguing over dogma and talking points given to us by either people that play character's on TV or more mundane mainstream talking heads like Anderson Cooper or trash like Sorcha Faaaaaaiiil or Steven Greer we aren't organizing to take back our rights. They aren't going to destroy r/conspiracy. It's the same with "OBAMA HAS THE INTERNET KILL SWITCH" conspiracy floating around here before the election. TPTB would never, ever kill the internet unless they were going to replace it with something even more soul destroying. It is a pretty effective method of population control because it is so effective at influencing people.

Lol nonsense, but at least you chose the right board for it

Oh geez

Or any proof what-so-ever.

That is not all.

There are botted accounts used to bait people, and call them "schitzo" and things like that to attempt to discredit.

George Soros is behind this somehow. Ill get in contact with infowars somehow to relay an emergency message to the president. Mabey just mabey there could be an investigation into hacking and expose Soros and his minions.

I got your proof right here

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/6847na/bot_defense_shill_counter/

I'd agree - too many systematic downvotes not equivocal to the mind type found in this sub - unless trolls continually scroll through "new" and just downvote everything with an unjudging fury - I've also noticed a lot more stuff being gaslighted - the aldous huxley post about a mentally ill person who's the worst is one who you can't tell is mentally ill - wtf is that shit doing on this? Think about it - just the slightest gap within the mind and it allows the whole flock in

This sub has been under attack for years. It comes and goes in waves, but there are always bots and shills all over r/conspiracy, all of the time.

The biggest joke about this sub is the rule saying you can't call someone a shill. Like, really? I understand not going into a witchhunt and posting personal information but calling someone a shill is going to do what? Attract large lawsuits? Ignite the endtimes? They literally can not every verbally justify why that rule is in place, and I have believed it was created to protect actual shills for years.

this mentality is, actually

Yea the guy who had an IMDB page and shot a single bullet through a wall into a computer hard drive yea?

According to reports he shot a single bullet or he shot multiple shots. Pretty easy to know if you heard 1 or multiple shots.

I mean obviously you will blow off the facts as silly because mainstream newspapers said some dumb shit.

at 94 upvotes 2 hours old?

r/all/new?

Its your time i guess.

It's hilarious how conspiracies that criticize the US president magically stopped the second Trump got into office.

Hello The_Donald poster.

I could of been more clear. I was talking about pesci. sorry for the misunderstanding.

Considering all the coincidences this whole group has been in I just don't think it happens to be a coincidence anymore that these particular words are used.

this guy gets it

Red herring, you claimed to not post T_D whaddaya know, you post on T_D frequently.

Companies, governments, politicians use social media and complex algorithms to deliver specific content, fake information, and marketing aimed at you... you think you make your own decisions while you are flooded with microtargeted ads and content follow you on the web.

Everything is about reducing people to consumers. Latest fashions for clothes you do not need, pictures of airbrushed models to make you insecure and buy cosmetics and sumpplements... everything geared to insercutiry, a constent need for more stuff to fill a void.

Everything reduced to a torrent of short sound bites... people get used to this torrent and are unable to do complex long cognitvely intensive tasks.

Pizzagate is a classic example. Its either an oganic outgrowth of a preconditioned popoulation or actively pushed narrative by some entity.

Basically snippets of information, intrigue, linked to together with loose associations. No time intesive cognitevely complex information.. rather just intuitive random associations. Add in the aura of mystique by adding in nefarious organizations and leading political oepratives.

Tap into a national dislike and distrust of the hilary campaign. Also, emotionally charge it... pedophiles using innocent kids.

Add in an an anti establishment pro trump angle... and people take this hook line and sinker. Promoted on some sites (infowars whose star admitted to it being an act) to some people in positions of power (flynn, aka russian agent)... and it gets credence.

Then 100s of people on the internet do "research"... aka image searches and simple good searches, and then spin them into the narrative.

All fun except this distracted from an election where trump describes walking in on changing teen Ms USA contestants and groping women without consent... where he has sold our country out to foreign and corporate interests.

All fun until some ass shows upto comet ping pong with a gun...

All fun until people's busnisses and empoyes suffer...

We got played and now coal companies can dump chemicals into water ways, big oil will get their pipeline so they can get canadian oil to ports to ship to other countries, defense contractors get more orders, healthcare to poor people gets cut, erdawans get licence to do what he wants in Turkey, private prisons get a break, marijuana is not getting legalized at a federal level while sessions is in charge, we bombed syria, companies and rich people will get tax breaks blowing holes in our deficit while poor people dont, and not action on climate change, social programs to help the opiate epidimic are under attack...

You got played r/conspiracy and some small independent pizza shops took the brunt (papa johns thanks you btw).

cool pov. thanks. needed this, to feel helpless again. i could go on and on on how to think and deal with this, present "system", but you seem to have it under control, good!

only liberal propaganda

What's funny is how few people recognize that most of the conspiracy theories posted here end up espousing liberal propaganda.

What is extra ironic is that that Exxon Secretary of State is one of the only cabinet members to actually believe in climate change.

this. a guy getting paid by a foreign govt was selected as national security advisor (and lied about it) and we're still looking at a gay dudes risque instagram. where do we go to talk about conspiracies where the word 'satan' or 'zionism' doesnt come up instead of 'greed' and 'power lust' (the real motivation for conspiracies)
