For the love of god you people make this community look bad by doing so. Mods please be more active with the reports and remove the posts. No matter what the context is, posting something from someone who is claiming to be someone else is wrong, sets up division and possible false messages in the future. Focus on real shit, real news, real people.

Same with the realrawnews nonsense
Yes.
If the mods were serious, they’d be booting accounts, not simply deleting posts, for posting transparently false disinfo.
On the infinitesimal chance that someone spreading those lies and larps isn’t a troll, they’d be well served by reading, learning, and not given our platform for their misuse.
Oh, I’m not trying to incite mod drama. For the most part, aside from differing opinions on where the line between Q-patriots and lifestyle conspiracy theorists should be drawn, I’ve been pretty consistently supportive of the mods and very appreciative of their efforts.
It’s just that fake Telegrams and garbage like realrawnews have been dumped here for as long as I’ve been here, and there is simply no legitimate excuse. For a community ostensibly dedicated to research to ask nothing of posters in terms of using credible sources or, at the very minimum, not use sources that are absurdly fake, is just unfortunate, for a number of reasons. There’s a million places to post on the internet; if you’re not actively pursuing the truth (and/or posting funny sht), if you’re not respecting fellow members’ time and intelligence, if you think “discernment” is a flavor of sugarless gum, I think there’s gotta be a better place for those to post.
Ness, you’re doing a great job. I obviously know what phrasing of mine rubbed your the wrong way. I didn’t intend to suggest you weren’t serious; only that continuing to presume that entertaining posters who see a ridiculous lie and say “Oh, I gotta share this with GA.w” is an unserious indulgence in low expectations, with corrosive side effects.
Anyways, that’s what I meant. ?
Cheers!
