I think I get the rationale behind that, but is it really working? This has 140 upvotes.
What percentage of our intrepid crew actually bother to vet content before upvoting?
What percentage actually see a sticky, and just go, ok, cool, I'll upvote?
If there was some way to identify that this as being sticked because it needs vetting and verification, as opposed to because its useful and helpful content, then this approach might be more effective.
But as it is, I notice a lot of sticked content that is clearly rubbish to the discerning mind, yet they garner hundreds of upvotes, and thereby (apparently) obtain a lot of credibility in the eyes of the board members.
I can see that there is now a flair "Possibly fake, no sauce, BUT"
That's a good idea. Do you mod-warriors make such flairs on the fly, or is this available for general use?
I'd like to see mods be clearer in their stickying; at the moment, things do seem rather muddy and I do not think the "sticky in order to inspire research" approach is working too well, considering how many upvotes bogus content gets because its stickied.
Suggestion: "Possibly fake, no sauce, handle with care" might work better. Have a few flairs that mods can use to communicate to the board when they sticky, WHY they sticky. (e.g. Notable is one, "unverified" might be another, "Possible fake" would be a good one, too.
The fake clickbait content in increasing in prevalence in the past year, across the Great Awakening landscape, including all platforms. We have so many newbies coming onboard, they mostly simply do not have the discernment training that anons who fought in the trenches with Q have.
This is a BIG problem. I'm on a good number of Freedom Movement groups and forums in my home country, and while its great to see so many normies converting to anonism, and waking up, the disinfo, clickbait, scammy content is a real <growing> problem.
I suggest the mods discuss this, or take it into consideration, and work on some ways to deal with this (eg.e such as having a bunch of flairs that warn and alert the board when such content is stickied, or when scam alerts are posted by board members.)
Information Warfare. The warfare landscape we are dealing with today is NOT the same as it was in 2018, 2019, 2020. The Deep State has worked hard at infiltrating the Q movement and the truth movement, and if we ignore this element, we do so at the risk of losing many good awakeners, or of many who are beginning to awaken lose traction with their own families, friends, or real-world connections.
