MODERATORS
There was a far right wing takeover about 10 years ago. The party's mostly dead now. Conservative solid as a strong contender to grow into a replacement for the Republican party and swing the US political system back towards center. So they pumped massive amounts of funding into the ancap communities and have massively infiltrated the party with Russian propaganda and garbage above like the post.
Earlier than that actually, by another 10 years, in an event called the Portland Massacre by opponents of changes which dropped the elements of the Dallas Accord. That'd when the takeover occurred, though the takeover began about 10 years before that.
So its effectively been a total shit show for about 30 years by my estimates.
Interesting. I was personally referring to my experiences with Reddit 10 years ago. And the violent pendulum swing I observed happening there when the mods of all the large libertarian groups got replaced all discussion was silenced. All nuance was removed and the marching orders were given and I turned my back on that place.
Around the time of KIA, the NRA getting money from Russia, the change in T_D from laughing at trump t9 being full maga, the changes to r/conspiracy, etc?
Yeah I think that was the specific influence of a certain former superpower that has spent a few years fighting a few days worth of war, but that's my bit of conspiracy theory. Its just too coincidental (with too many known incidents) for me not to believe its all related.
Oh, I'm certain you've heard of the dead internet theory. I believe in a modified version of it
I'd say it's starting to happen here too. Not as bad but it is starting.
Yeah, there have definitely been, we'll call them "prominent posters" here who fit the bill.
Let's cut to the chase. The Republican party was embarrassed by Nixon resigning to avoid impeachment and have spent the last 50 years doing whatever they can to get revenge and prevent it from happening again. That process has led them to becoming ultra conservative as a way to make it so that laws don't apply to them.
