@Evspra - Are people posting links to GeorgeNews against the rules? I don't, and I'm sure most others would agree, need someone filtering content for me (content as it relates to analysis and discussion of GeorgeNews posts).
If GeorgeNews doesn't provide any type of equity it will naturally remove itself from the discussion on GAW.
I go away for a day and all of a sudden everyone's anti-George.
There are so many posts I'm not gonna spend all day trying to read why people despise them suddenly.
I will say two things --
I and those who support them have NEVER claimed they were Q. However, I do think they have a close relationship with the military.
Also, they've been good cheerleaders providing hopium.
I read through a few of the anti-George posts and I find it really suspicious that there's a sudden movement against them. Nothing they provide as "proof" against them is particularly nefarious.
IF they had come out and claimed to be Q, like Austin Steinbart, then I could see the wrath, but they never have been more than cheerleaders. Confusing.
Amen. This is textbook divide and conquer and we've got a mod instigating it all. I'm getting flashbacks from tGA subreddit.
What I don't get is that George has never come and make a claim like "Hey, we're Q." They've been cheerleaders for DJT and have alluded to Q like many others have.
This smells like a controlled oppo op to sow dissent and discord amongst the base.
You might be right. GAW is one of the last bastions of free thought left. To think it would split over some paytriot allegations is stupid, and makes me angry.
George might not be the perfectly austere monk that everyone wants them to be, but they've been giving us good info that we otherwise would have overlooked. They've been cheering us on in a way that paytriots would not.
And it seems like you can't ever prove, in the Alinskyite fashion, that George is legit.
It's disturbing that this was done overnight -- reminds me of the election theft itself.
It was instigated by one person who says, "Go check yourself" while simultaneously declaring "IT's FAKE!"
And suddenly all these anti-George threads have proliferated.
I'm trying to stay neutral in this and watch but it doesn't look good either way.
I just got banned for asking George to clear the air on this.
Which is fine but it doesn't necessitate the banning of a source. Posts regarding GeorgeNews, if indeed turns out to be fake, will naturally stop occurring on GAW.
TBH, this is the best thing to happen to GeorgeNews. @Evspra created his own Streisand effect.
and just make an account here.............. lol
Legit bro. Banned me from the chat. Got direct replies when I mentioned what was happening over here on GAW. They said “let them” attack. But kept pleading for them to throw something solid to squash the beef and was banned from the chat.
Do you know that it wasn't their bot due to the same questions being asked over and over and appearing like spam to them?
It's unfortunate, but there's just so much shit we can't know... You being banned for asking a question, doesn't prove them illegitimate.
It’s possible. Especially considering the latest post from them. I was only blocked from the comments not completely booted from the Group. We shall see. Hoping for the best and that they prove to be legit.
I didn't get played by GeorgeNews. YOU are the one saying I got played by GeorgeNews. I can make that determination myself. I haven't seen conclusive evidence.
The fact every other thread is discussing the legitimacy of George leads me to believe your analysis isn't as thorough as it should be.
Are we going to ban all links to Twitter now too? Cause we all know they like to filter content eh!
It's simple. You are free to still visit george. Just don't link them here. Evspra does a great job of explaining how they are larping as insiders when they are not. Then george bans anyone questioning them and the lies about it. I'll still check out george but will also do so knowing they have no inside info as they have insinuated. Don't be mad at Evspra, thank him or her.
But we’re all used to this from literally every platform, news, or video that’s posted anywhere, what makes George so special that links to it would require a ban? It kind of sounds like someone got really disappointed and wants to cause drama because of it..
Yeah this is bizarre... I thought this type of censorship is what we were fighting against.
Step back and look at the bigger picture for a moment. Who is George news, really? Where did they come from? When did they appear? Why, are their links suddenly everywhere on this sub? Why so much hype over this one little fly-by-night outfit?
I understand where you are coming from because I too am staunchly opposed to content filtering. However, in this case I am with the mods on this one. Why?
Because for whatever reason, and through whatever means, this odd little "news" site more closely resembles spam, and [organized] shill bullshit, when I look at it from a neutral perspective. And then there are those troubling connections to big tech tracking..:
I think the mods are correct to boot these shady fuckers clear outta here, and free up a lot, and I mean a LOT of wasted forum space. I seriously doubt that anyone here will miss anything important, and we will all likely be better off without George links clogging up our content filters on every gawddamn page.
My two cents:
Why I've never heard of GeorgeNews from the top trusted sources: Lin Wood, Sidney Powell, General Flynn and so on? And from the former George Magazine staff? And Q always encourages us to be suspicious of everything and everybody.
On the other hand, who's behind GeorgeNews is pretty good in the "4th dimension empathy thing" on the presentation of media (that's why so many trust them). Other thing. Even controlled sauces could mix some bits of truth (just because it works better this way). So nothing against keep processing data from many sides and then use logic, instinct and discernment to separate the accurate from the inaccurate. And, of course, never giving them money. Another thing: when we watch a chess game, the fun part for the non-players is to be able to see the moves from BOTH SIDES ;-)
In a nutshell, the obvious: anyone is free to censor or to keep following X or Y.
How about letting the information flow and let us decide what is real or fake?
Something called the First Amendment. I'm not arguing over its legitimacy/illegitimacy. I put GN in the same category as NeonNettle, NeonRevolt, InfoWars and NaturalNews. It's information, not intelligence.
Dvidshub isn't exactly a news site, it's a primary distributor of media, like say Reuters or AP or Ruptly. On the other hand George News IS a news site, albeit an aggregator that does not post original content.
That dvidshub argument is flawed on that basis and perhaps the reason why they keep banning anyone who asks about it.
If they did that I wouldn't defend them at all, and attack them back and abandon them as you would hope I would do so. Don't go putting words in my mouth.
You assume too much about what we think here. I raise that counterpoint because I thought you might not have considered it. We're quite capable of coming to our own conclusions without you intervening like we're children in a nursery, and frankly we're not happy with you declaring you know what's best for us.
But you decided you'll deny this counterpoint of mine and come to your own conclusion, and decide that you won't be replying on the basis that perhaps we won't ever find middle ground on this topic. I don't think that way but I don't ever get to decide whether you'll agree with me or not, just as you don't get to decide that for me.
Right now, I see that you are ruling this site with an iron fist. Defy your stance on George and we get the ban hammer. Call you out for being a heavy-handed mod and we get the ban hammer. You have no idea what you are doing, because you've let your authority as Mod and Site Dev go to your head.
I will not challenge you to ban me, because that'd be foolish, but think for a second about the consequences of your words and actions. Did you challenge George properly? How did you word your message to them in the first place? What exactly would cause them to ban you from their telegram: The question? The link? The fact that they implemented a bot? Did you accuse them of paytriotism? Share that message with us.
Right now you are pitting George supporters against George haters on this last bastion of Free Thought. We don't need this conflict. We don't need this censorship. We need to hold the line. We need to share information, Q-related of course, and George has been talking about Q. We need to keep hope, and George has been giving us hope. And that merch and donations? Let buyers buy and donors donate. That's not our concern, and we don't need to be protected from that. It's our choice what we do with our dollars.
