From what I gather a lot of people are doing their research on george here for proof, that doesn’t make us a hivemind. Also I do not hate george, I am just disappointed.
The thing that makes it a hive mind is that the entire board is full of people absolutely ripping apart and disowning George based off of someone not understanding how marketing websites work. It’s the blind leading the blind for this specific issue. The mod jumped the gun and let his ego take over because he thinks that he is 100% right. I believe he got too emotional and thought he found a secret sauce that proved something and everyone is just “yeah! burn the witch”
It’s an information war. You don’t know who to trust. People who seemed trustworthy suddenly can do 180s.
People formerly of questionable quality can suddenly become reliable.
It’s a Multi-front war with ill defined sides. You have people with roughly similar beliefs, there will be differences but generally they are of similar enough mindset that they can be roughly grouped into factions. These factions generally speaking are trying to bend things to reflect their personal beliefs about what’s going on to justify the beliefs they have.
More extreme Christian groups can consider this the opening of the book of Revelations. They then try to convince others of this belief and discredit other people’s beliefs that may contradict their own.
The more New Age Spiritualists believe this is the start of a raising of consciousness and crossing planes to a new a level of existence. They then try to convince others of this.
There are also groups in the middle of the spectrum that take more moderate stances.
Etc. Etc. So on and so forth.
Most of these groups aren’t doing this out of any evil intentions. They are trying to help. It’s just that the help isn’t necessarily beneficial to the greater whole.
There is the minority that just want to burn everything and go out of their way to stir up conflict.
I think most people on here have truly good intentions. Most people here are highly intelligent, and if ever there was a concentration of people who actually literally think for themselves, it’s here. This is the antithesis of a hive mind.
That’s why I love this forum. In a world polluted by BS, this is a stronghold of hope for me.
That’s splitting hairs. Most of the discussion on GAW is what I described and is the point I was making. Whether it’s someone farming discussion is another issue.
I’m not sure what you mean about splitting hairs. I am just making a statement I believe to be true.
This board is swarming with trolls, shills, and an army of sock-puppets. The controlled opposition goal is to control the narrative.
Making a statement like “everyone on this board does this or that” is still meaningless in a forum where you have no idea who is who and how many people are really just one person. Throwing everyone into a bucket and say “GAW says” is the same tactic the fake news media uses when reporting on this board. What the mods think is a different story.
I personally have no opinion on George news and when I see a post about them specifically, I just keep scrolling. Although this recent drama surrounding them has peaked my interest.
If I see a headline being reported on George news, I’ll click it to learn more, but I work to discern the truth in the content and not throw out the content based on the source.
Agreed. Plus, whether George is legit or not, I don’t like how it’s now banned from this site because one person said so. This is no better than Twitter with this slippery slope of censorship...
Yeah, seeing the long line of "Let's hate George" posts yesterday felt like a mindless torch and pitchfork mob had taken over. Ridiculous. Very reddit.

I hate to say it, but this statement is meaningless on a board where a single person can manage multiple accounts without anyone knowing.

It's the mods, they're kinda reddit-y
Many of us have read those posts and disagree with the conclusions.
I like George. Their chats draw a lot of people and help spread the word and the links they agregate are good.
At a time where drudge report is full leftist, it's good to have sites that compile good links.
Whether they're connected to the plan or not isn't relevant.

What are they saying on /pol/ or 8kun?
Would you be "dissapointed" if you found out biden stole the election?
