Guys, the majority of popular media sites these days like Reddit, Twitter, YouTube or Facebook are bots. The idea is to gather all of the people on to these platforms, inject multitudes of AI that aggregates aspects of humans that are recognizable, relatable and plausible and that way you slowly inch the scale toward a preferred frame of mind by building consensus with your swarm. These platforms are fake. They're not real. The people on them that fall for this shit are literal NPCs who cannot think for themselves.
For at least a few years, you won't see fringe sites like this (which, admittedly, this is nothing) have these kinds of circumstances unfolding. But a big way these sites like Poal or Voat or the Reddit clones are controlled is by spinning up LARPs about Nazism, about Militias and other supposedly fringe ideas so they can paint pictures that let them get funding to "defend the internet from hate like incels and Nazis". What they do is sort of how the Whitmer thing played out. There's feds all over these websites waiting for you to say something that could make for an easy subpoena.
Do you want to know how to stop this AI creep that will inevitably cause data rot, this fake morality system designed to shape worldviews and the game of Schrodinger's Internet? You start thinking for yourself. You abandon all ideology. Reject any and all "mentors". Do your own research. Tell people to fuck off often. Do not make friends on the internet. Do not make deals on the internet. Pretend everyone isn't real and only care about people you know personally, with which you form groups of only people you've met.
Stop not being paranoid. Take the "everyone's a bot until proven otherwise" pill.
