They have already won, the evidence is this sub

I found this sub in 2013, during the search for the Boston bombers. Conversations were nuanced socio-political-philosophy-mysticism posts, with large paragraphs, links, rare videos or PDFs of books not available for easy purchase, with some aliens and anti-Semitic stuff, sprinkled into the timeline. Dozens of well expressed posts a day, with hundreds of comments, building; not infighting or brigades or downvoting.

Snowden, Assange, Manning evidence exploded that same year, and expert analysis of Michael Hastings car “crash”. Breakdowns of the Grammys and IMF references. The essential magazine covers, etc. Years of past posts, linked to more recent. Earthquake and tsunami predictions. Outrage over the effect of Fukushima and Obama’s drone strikes and no proof of Osama’s death, and censorship increasing in respected investigative news outlets, and that weird fake snow shit, arctic pool 2014 while Frozen was in theaters. Discussing facial recognition software and deep fakes, and the Tupac hologram. Some posts had SO MUCH great content or comments, that you spent a full hour reading and upvoting the built observations.

And then Pizzagate snuck in, and suddenly, this whole sub shifted. Like thousands of active users didn’t think about clicking on links and photos of compromising, explicit content of CSA. The_Donald got banned. Mods became combative and more posts were subreddit drama. I left reddit for a few years, while in school, plus you’d get a post or comment removed, as soon as your hate-mod saw your handle. It was rough.

Now look at this sub. Full of obviously young men, who cannot coherently express a sentence or mature thought. Who have no sense of history or wonder. Who can’t even properly take and frame a screenshot. An entire generation with the attention span of a Reel/Shorts/TikTok and who do not know/think of trying a web search or sub search. They literally are illiterate and do not know how to do research or evaluate an original source from propaganda. It’s all static and cringe and ratio culture and somehow, I doubt these boys understand an EMP blast, or what a draft would mean for their immediate reality.

I don’t expect this post to be upvoted or for many of the comments to be anything but denial and insults. Aaron didn’t deserve to be murdered for this shit.

Reconsider your screen time. Stop watching porn. Invest your money in FDIC credit unions, because both crypto and the markets are about to tank. Prepare for weeks without electricity or cell reception. Read A Brave New World, Animal Farm, F451, 1984, A Clockwork Orange, The Handmaid’s Tale; don’t watch the adaptations.

Be Here Now, Ram Dass, too.

RIP, r/conspiracy and thanks for all the fish. So it goes.
