are we *the place* for anons now? I know 4chan, 8chan/kun, voat and some of reddit all fell for us, is there anywhere else? was there?
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
curious. i see some old school people breeze through and talk of the old days, i came in when reddit shut down the_donald.
Too much pandering here. The posters ruled the roost there and kept it in line {a crazy and jagged line}
This place is an echo chamber for the most part with minor deviations. It doesn't mean it's bad necessarily, but it does mean you don't reconsider things from another viewpoint as often here.
And most importantly, voat users were just a step down from the anons on 4 Chan so there was a lot more digging and research going on with both sites overlapping
But it also takes those older Anons to teach the new. And only a select group of Anons still match things up to drops and such that we Mods Sticky daily. So if you need more digging, then one must do the work to educate. Lead on Anon because Where We Go One We Go All, together.
Well said!!
Great advice old skool anons give to newer anons that is often ignored: be careful who you follow.
The blind faith in sophists is only holding anons back by distracting them and occupying their time.
Can u give an example please.
Yes back then there was a lot more fresh areas to dig. However once a hole is dug, is there a need to re dig that same hole. Yes people can check to make sure that hole is properly dug but do we need to re dig it out. The way I see it back then there were a lot more fresh holes to dig. Not to say there isn't digging now, however now it's more about as the news happens, where as then it was more about as Q drops happen. Those Q drops all brought us here. Eventually though we dig less and start building right? Could we simply be coming to the building phase more and more.
Sure, but there's new people here who don't even know the drops and therefore don't know the research about those drops.
I still think it's important
Yes thats the beauty. As they read the new drops, they brings questions and we have a chance to re go over the drops with them. We get to check our work and have fresh eyes peer review it. However I don't think doing that for the sake.of doing it should necessarily be what we all are doing. I honestly feel we need to be forward thinking a little more rather than in a reactive state we currently are in. Yes we wanna still analyze the news as it comes, because we are the news...however we can begin thinking to arrest, past arrest, to the chaos and past the chaos. To what part we play, this place plays in the future.
Also as far as it being an echo chamber. I truly believe most outside the box thinking can be shared. U just gotta really get creative how u do it and do it in love.
Most dissenting comments get a lazy downvote if it doesn't jibe with their thinking.
That's not really what a downvote is for in my opinion.
Discussion should be the outcome of dissenting opinions and increasingly it just isn't the case here.
Of course there are still great discussions to be had within this framework, and some of the pitfalls of voat are avoided by operating in this manner.
Two different worlds I suppose
