A bit of a PSA here, frens, but I'm noticing an increased amount of infighting and suspiciously leftist-sounding confrontational convos in the past three or four days. It's my belief that the shills are now evolving to be able to bypass handshake restrictions and lie in wait so they can begin sowing seeds of chaos. I'd advise everyone to be on guard against (((their))) agents and post with sound mind and logical thought, not driven by emotions.
God wins!
Usually deport them, the mods don’t take any crap and we appreciate them immensely.
Look for these clues:
These two topics will be attacked immediately and relentlessly: A. ANY mention of adrenochrome, and B. ANY mention of "name stealing", people using fake IDs, or people taking over another persona for a mission (standard spy tactics)
Well, I haven't used the phrase "poorly-sourced", but I have questioned memes' origin a few times. Lately the Henry Kissinger one. I do it, because if it turns out to be fake, it makes us all look bad.
Yes. Good to question. The context of using "poorly-sourced" is as a projection is when the OP has provided numerous links and explanations logically tied together and the person disputing has provided zero, yet claims "poorly-sourced". It is almost comically stupid and easily recognized.
I see this all the time.
I would add that their pseudo-rebuttals fail to offer logical fact-based counter-argument(s).
Also, there’s the authoritative shills who pretend to be farmers, “elder pedes”, etc. in their false refutations and whom use the false identity in place of relevant sources.
Wow I guess I found the shill here, and it wasn't me. I was responding to your comment about farmers I live in a farm state.
I wasn't expecting such a rude response, forget I said anything.
There you go again..so obvious. Lol you people always out yourselves.
I've been having a hard time looking around here lately. Now I just look for posts from familiar "faces".
It’s ironic that you say this, while the most upvoted comment on this post has most of the qualities you mentioned.
AND C. Freemasonry. That's a really big one.
Just deported a hand shake for anti Trump rhetoric

I personally won't go as far to speculate that there are mods trying to destroy GAW from within.
However, it is very disappointing to see some of the posts that get stickied. There's a lot of: -Trivial fluff -Unsourced posts -Opinion posited as fact
..that gets stickied and it's a shame. Some stickied posts have been shown to be misinformation and they still stay up for hours. However, some of the responsibility rests on our shoulders in that regard as I have seen many of these posts get upvoted like crazy with only a handful of discerning commenters calling out the post in question for being false or opinion masquerading as fact.
I think most of the mods do excellent work for what is a rather thankless job, but I would like to see more care in what gets stickied.
I think some people upvote posts without actually reading them.
I think you're right, harkk :(
Based comment!
This absolutely happens - every day.
Oops, i just upvoted your comment without reading it...lol
Rascal!
To be fair, what I heard the mods mention is that stickies != confirmed info. Sometimes stuff gets stickied because they want it to be fact-checked. Sometimes someone just requested it and they're happy to oblige. Mods aren't capable of being everywhere at once, sadly, and they're probably not bots.
It would be ideal to see that noted somewhere in the sidebar just so everyone was on the same page about that, though.
"To be fair, what I heard the mods mention is that stickies != confirmed info."
I must confess that I was not aware of that, citrouille.
I definitely respect that time is limited and the mods don't have the time to fact check every post that's been put up. But I would like to see a more aggressive effort made to un-sticky posts that have been shown to be misinformation.
I work 2 jobs in addition to prep, and mod. I also find ways to practice an instrument in between.
When I spent time fact checking, I felt like an asshole bouncing around from post to post simply cutting down good people's well intentioned post.
I did it because I would've received the scrutiny from the community if I trusted the poster off hand and stickied.
I'm not God. I don't try to be. I get no ego rush from being a mod.
But alas, even though I feel this way, I am 1 of 22 mods. This only accounts for one persons point of view.
Im always here to make this community a fun place to learn and escape to.
Thank you for all that you do—2 jobs and a mod! Wow. Thank you to all the mods here.
This. Absolutely.
We have to report those posts once the evidence comes out.
They stay stickied for education purposes.
What would be cool is a section right under the stickies, highlighted a different color and stamped Fake News; put disproved posts there to spread awareness. Some people keep posting stuff we knew was fake months ago like they just discovered something.
There is that handy Hide button.
Just sayin'.
What does that have to do with people upvoting posts without reading them?
Same here. I don't bother with most posts that only have a link to a supposed news story and no explanation either. How much trouble is it to give a one sentence explanation instead of clickbait? Most of these alternative news sites are pretty awful, unfortunately. We really need a good, well done conservative news site.
This isn't Twatter. We're not supposed to ignore one another, we're supposed to make the community better.
Definitely makes sense to bag on the mods. These overpaid, underworked, good for nothing leftist morons...oh, wait - that's the asswipes at Facebook. Are you sure it makes sense to disparage the mods of GAW who stinking volunteer their time and work their asses off to create a tremendous community experience? Do you have a clue how much this place would suck without them?
I do not understand why patriots are so quick on the draw when serving up friendly fire. If someone does something that you don't agree with, they may not necessarily be "moronic". If someone posts something you don't agree with, they might not be a commie, shill or idiot.
This ^^ I'm betting 90% of GAW has never ventured to 8kun and tried to process a Q Research general thread. Takes me quite a while, especially if a bread is moving quickly. Not to mention, 8kun is shilled even more heavily than GAW. Much harder to filter out the garbage, along with the degenerate posts/images that add nothing.
There's only one mod that I question their motives. Otherwise, I think we're doing OK otherwise
Nope - I just respect the efforts of VOLUNTEERS who spend their whole day fighting off filth and scum and doomers and glowies and Naziis and idiots. It's a thankless job, which I don't do but enjoy the results of their labor.
I love how Patriots in Control?is still stickied
Its not?
Nice thanks.
I do believe many of those positions have been recovered. That's the big leap, the precipice, when will people step off the edge and see the big picture.
If you've been paying attention at all you'd see it's not about the election, it never was. Trump knew, the white hats knew this was going to happen he even told us it was going to happen.
It's been about getting people to wake the fuck up, and it's been about ending human trafficking around the world which is actually happening.
Read the Q posts, learn their coms and our coms you will see. I believe Biden is on a similar tour to what Geotus went on in his Presidency. Showing these countries that they have to still work with the white hats.
Right now Geotus is doing his part as kingmaker installing patriot candidates and getting people motivated to take back their states without all of this happening if Geotus had stayed in office we would have had four more good years, instead he and the whitehats are setting things up to take down the deep state once and for all and have not just our country but our world back. It takes all of us to do this not just one.
Sitting here dooming and insulting those of us that can see the bigger picture doesn't mean it's not happening.
Remember what Q said, we have it all. Why do you think the left is acting so idiotically and without any common sense? Before we would never have seen this now EVERYONE is seeing it. People I never thought would be awake are awake. We had to be pushed out of our comfort zones or we would never move and they would have just taken over us after Geotus was out of office in 2024.
I know you're just going to hate on me and doom but maybe, just maybe think about what I'm saying and look at things a little differently.
The reason I think Biden is doing what Geotus did in his Presidency.

Expect more mass arrest internationally in the next few months.
Also, there is a distinct trend towards making this sub look like the Donald. Important subjects are quickly derailed in the top comments with talk of dick size and freedom boners, everywhere.
I usually block without notice when a shill wants to derail a thread with or without a confrontation with them.
My gosh, yes! I know the mods aren't sitting around looking for something to do but what can be done to stop the ridiculous duplicating? I also often see a duplicate post stickied while the poor soul who posted the original post is ignored, which I think is extremely unfair.
I also see a lot of things posted from third-rate "news" sites that are days or even weeks old. They are of course marked "breaking." Hint: breaking means a story that has come in right on deadline, may be incomplete and will be updated as new info comes in. It does not mean "READ ME!! I"M NEW!"
I've made a point to comb the search bars as users have suggested. Sometimes I found one person requested a sticky, yet an older duplicate post did not.
In those situations, I've stickied both to avoid conflict, and distribute likes.
What is the proper thing to do?
I was shamed for mentioning the same issue as the last 4 comments
The only issue I have are the repeated subject post. If that could be reduced it would speed shut up.
I learned early on to use the search function before posting breaking news. More often than not, someone got here before me. 😁 Hey, did anyone hear that Ivana T died? kek
when you block, do you just stop seeing the shill response or that person is blocked from interacting with everyone?
Block doesn't seem to work or it kis sporadic at best, I block folks and they keep coming back.
It is supposed to work so that 'you' don't see that poster.
I had the same problem with the block feature, so I came up with a workaround.
I use 'uBlock Origin', an adblocker browser extension. You can use it to hide the posts/comments of any user. In the 'My Filters' section of settings, paste the following two lines and replace 'username' with the actual username. I use it to remove users that I find annoying but don't necessarily warrant deporting.
greatawakening.win##.comment[data-author=username]
greatawakening.win##.post[data-author=username]
I had the extension but didn't know you could do that with it. Thank you.
Thanks but I don't bother with extensions and stuff, I'm simple in more ways than one....
https://files.catbox.moe/4vq62t.jpeg
It just blocks it for you.
I dont see the shill comments anymore, but see the replies address to them.
I notice a change in the shills demeanor once the subject gets changed in the comments. As if its a win shitting all over a thread.
The way to do it
I agree...needless aggression...
I've noticed, more than once, someone responding with a reeeee that was so ... left sounding. Something about needing a doctor to listen to frequencies ... just very yuck
The doomers were out in force past few days, I notice we handle them pretty darn well call them out reason with them somewhat, if they keep at it ... gone! Thank you Mods!
I'd say 1 out of every 5 posts I read have a comment doom trolling.
They appear to wait until something gets stickied or enough upvotes to get attention, then two or three glowies/shills do a coordinate attack to derail the topic. They don't waste their time if nobody is upvoting. Demonstrates that they clearly have been instructed to discredit and pollute the discussion.
There sure are a lot of people here who seem to only be here to attack fellow GAWers, argue and distract from the point. I wish the block button worked, especially for the one who devolve to personal attacks. Anyone know why it doesn't?
This is not a new tactic. Sleepers have been used on previous platforms and of course here as well.
As others have stated, simply deport. Jannies are on top of that shit around here.
I agree, this is far from the first time. I see this tactic being used and deployed in waves, and I thought it appropriate to alert that we're probably in one as we speak.
But it's not that easy to spot them, otherwise we wouldn't have this issue. Among many of the people being deported or banned, there is always "collateral damage". A patriot may have a cynical take on something or may be having a bad day or even just be concerned and then gets deported. It's quite unfortunate. Many patriots also have asinine ideas & opinions or make shit-posts, low-info posts...but as long as such posts are acceptable to the mods and upvoted by members, you'll get them. It's not like shills or glowies don't know how to blend in either...psychological operations, that's their job.
Yea the shit posts. Everyone loses their mind about some nobody posting smth on Twitter …smh
No sauce, no substance just feelz
A low post/comment score ratio can give it away. It takes time and effort to post, meaning someone with a post/comment score ratio >>>1 is likely a serious researcher or a huge idiot for wasting their time. Comments cost the user nothing and post/comment score ratio <<<1 indicates either a sleeper karma farming or someone just passively lurking. Serious contributors have both a high post and a high comment score and a ratio ~1 since they are contributing in both ways.
As far as I can tell though, there is zero way to bypass the handshake. I'm sure there have been compromised accounts or sleeper accounts or even bought accounts though.
Here and in real life, almost like they received some sort of MK activation code. The normies are acting hella weird at work today, more aggravated than normal.
They are obvious and stick out like a sore thumb and pose no real threat. Deport deport deport.
Brainless Mods? You've easily confirmed yourself one of these people who need deporting. You've managed to be a doomer, concern troll and a shill all rolled into one.
Just don't confuse calling out people on their bullshit for shilling. We're united under the cause and stand for a lot of the same ideals but, let's be frank, that's where it ends.
Calling someone a shill over a disagreement is something a leftist would do.
A commonly done thing. Always very amusing when it happens, especially when someone disagrees on a narrow point even though they agree with the whole.
The personal in fighting is bad but what's worse are the insane/slidding comments that span 20+ comments deep on very critical posts. They completely side step the topic and engage people in asinine topics. Their very deceptive and come off as genuine. Look for it. It's been happening for months.
On point. Be careful falling for the "bait". If you realize you fell for it, delete all your comments and post a general comment on that discussion explaining how it is off topic and not relevant. This then exposes the shill/glowie and makes them look like a retard as only their comments remain as evidence.
agree
Arguments are good Conservatives have all the ideas Welcome dissent and arguments.
It’s the ONLY way we will win over folks who Vote communist
Same thing seems to be happening to 4chan. It could be nothing, though. Many leftists have no life and are so busy spewing shit to prevent people from noticing what they're so full of.
The lord is my refuge.
In Him I will trust!
I noticed this with my most recent post. A few of the reactions didn't really make sense from a Patriot point of view.
The shills are getting more clever, and building up histories first.
You can see my post here: https://greatawakening.win/p/15Ir6pWtNR/urgent-your-help-is-needed-cyber/
I don't know how new this phenomenon is, though.
It is a sign of their desperation. They are getting their asses handed to them on all fronts in this information war. So their only way left to combat it is to shill/glowie the crap out of the people reporting the truth, so that the fact of how badly they are losing sees as few eyes as possible. Meanwhile, we keep doing our thing gutting or PRE-gutting all their BS narratives and gutting their "support" until their whole house of lies collapses on top of them.
This is getting fun, ain't it?
-Anon
Yeah, I got a private from a Karen saying I'm a bad person and repent. What a moron. Like I give a fuck. Lmao. Standing for what you believe in is never popular and I don't care.
1st step to winning is attitude:
The bad people in this world are those that knowingly violate others' rights trying to "fit it", "go with the crowd", or "virtue signal" because they are afraid of being criticized for taking a principled stand on a topic.
100% spot on!
There are a lot of subversive sleeper accounts that have been activated in the last 5 or so months, and more recently. I would bet that a lot of the same accounts that are getting banned or kicked are coming from the same IP's or same generic vpn services. I am free speech first, but coming in here to disrupt b/c your argument is a dumpster fire is rather tedious. You do that on a reddit sub and it's all hands on deck b/c someone is crying into their snuggy and needs a hug to go with their soy latte. It might be time to knock it up a level and start banning via IP or geoip.
If I understood you correctly, that's a GREAT idea!
I think free speech in regards to The Donald and offshoots ended when Reddit banned The Donald and offshoots.
At that point, gloves came off. And while I am a Constitutionalist, this community of sites does not pretend to be non-biased and welcome the other side.
I say this as someone who used to argue, repeatedly, with fellow posters on The Donald on Reddit when lefties came in for a discussion.
Yet now, I resent just based off the fact that we have a certain leftist sub mod running around here.
We have plenty of disagreements with each other as independents and conservatives; we definitely do not need leftists galavanting around at this point.
BRING. BACK. VOAT. 🐐
YOU N-F YOU!!!!
I've noticed the same thing. Fighting like two teenage boys. Typically personal attacks. I doubt seriously that this is anything but shills.
The whole manifestation and “the secret” creepiness gives me the heebeejeebees. It may be a mod doing it, but it sure as hell isn’t godly
What are you talking about when you say "the secret"?
"The Secret" is a book/movie that discusses how to manifest what you want by the Law of Attraction
I don’t know what the big deal is on either side of that book. Positive thinking….big revelation.
It's not just positive thinking, if it was then it wouldn't warrant the kind of attraction it's gotten. Either way, the conclusion I've come to is nothing trump's God, so why not just devote time and prayer to him? Life has been much more generous since that revelation.
It’s a book that is new age and talks about manifestation. Malarkey
Definitely agreed here. I don't think the majority of people who follow new age stuff realize that they're playing with magic that's more like playing with fire. I would know, I was there myself before. I see it as one more type of attack this board has to deal with, but sadly it looks like a lot of our users don't agree.
Yes, to everything you said. You are not alone. I've lost many family members to New Age cults, and I was in one as early as 16.
If it weren't for my strong Baptist roots, I might not have came out. I left in my 20s and I've found the middle ground between all of it.
Both sides will attack you for saying it.
Just remember, we are winning wwg1...
Indeed so. Feels good.
This is 100% true. All the top posts are now gay mainstream “conservative” (read: liberal) talking points.
At the same time 'dissent is the highest form of patriotism'... Any community like this generally has been contentious.. Just requires maturity etc
Sometimes we genuinely disagree with each other. I’ve been here since very early, escalator time before this site existed. I’m libertarian and disagree with many of you on several topics, I rarely speak up on those topics because there’s no point, MAGA is more important. Don’t take every opposing opinion as shill, if we do that we become them in the long run.
8 billion unique minds and ideas...
What? You become a shill when you find too much disagreement, but you're really MAGA?
We’re getting damn near to crunch time and some of us are scared shitless. I have faith in God’s plan, but that doesn’t mean I want to be camped even if that’s his plan.
We can all see it, it’s getting dangerously close.
theres restrictions to being a handshake?
There are! First, everyone who sees your comments knows your account was either recently made or is not active. Second, your original posts aren't visible to the rest of the community until you've been active enough on the site to receive a high enough number of updoots.
Yeah you need to have a certain amount of upvotes on your posts and comments afaik.
oh hey im not a handshake anymore sick
i guess my username checks out then, fren
i've been part of the movement for a while too, fren. not every handshake is new to the movement, just to GAW.
also hey shills: NCSWIC
[their]
Fixed that killbox for you
Too many people on this forum do not understand that this is not The Donald.
Could be a result of said people migrating straight from there and not getting the memo about the change in culture!
When someone demands that you show how the Bible defines the difference between kill and murder in order to suggest that God's Word is subject (important word there) to interpretation you know you found someone who is professionally retarded.
These kinds are all over this board and I'm constantly downvoted for pointing them out.
Lots of the ccp 50 cent army here.
They've certainly showed themselves!
I've been seeing so many stupid and divisive theories start gaining traction completely out of left field. Feels like there's a lot of board sliding towards pointless discussions focused on starting infighting. Some of them are interesting and people have the right to discuss them, but at the same time it felt so extreme and off topic from any major Q discussions. After a while, seeing 3 or 4 extreme claims here, ALL from very aggressive individuals who belittle and patronize anyone who asks them anything, starts to feel like a pattern. Feels like they're just throwing shit at the wall hoping something sticks since things have sorta quieted down news wise.
Yeah! u/#excellentbait
