100% wrong attitude. 5 or 6 mods should not be the truth police. This should be a place for open discussion. Truth will always come to the top but somebody getting to decide for all is not the way to go!
If they didn't draw some boundaries, this place would be overrun with glowies and their useful idiots. It would fall apart just like Voat did.
The discussion is not policed away - it's segmented out to Conspiracies.win where you can explore it in depth. Doing so keeps GAW.win free to accomplish its mission with fewer distractions.
Voat definitely ended up with very few overall posters. Most subverses were empty and full of bots with racist rhetoric, a lot of discussions were derailed by "but free speech" raging because people refused to adhere to the rules.
The Pizzagate sub also started to have this problem, and engagement started to shift away back to chans with regular posters slowly disappearing.
This nor Patriots.win are specifically free speech havens. There are rules that we agree to when we participate, and if we cannot even have that kind of discipline then things will be derailed from things that the posts are even somewhat related to.
The rules are fairly clear, and the mods do a decent job of not just slamming the ban button on regular posters but there are limits.
Once upon a time I agreed with you, but the amount of people here precisely to derail or discredit is always going to be higher than we want.
I'm sure random ogre is here somewhere clapping his hands together with joy about stuff like this on an alt account that he still has precisely for times like these.
It fell apart. It became a waste of time to even go there, it was filled with forum sliding, useful idiots, and glowies aplenty - all unfettered by any sense that boundaries must be maintained for any social movement to succeed. By the time the owner closed up shop, Gab's GreatAwakening group was a much better option.
And the nazi refugees were given safe harbor on .win. We tried telling admin it would have the same effect here (.win generally, not GA specifically) and only now are they trying to fix that, after nearly 3 years of damage.
Probably harassment into shutting it down plus major shift for the Q operation since voat was the officially sanctioned discussion space outside the Chan
I was on .win from day 1 it went public, but never paid attention to.win adding other communities. Can you give a timeline of when GA was added here? How does that compare to people leaving r/GA to go to Voat?
This helps me understand why ConPro hates GA so much, I didn't realize you had that shared history. ConPro mods openly encourage nazis, misguidedly thinking they'll shift the Overton window to the right. Absolutely not caring that they destroy .win as a whole in the process.
If Flat Earth isn't glowie-driven well poisoning then why it is still allowed on YouTube when just questioning masking and election integrity was bannable?
I disagree. In my view, the meme is saying that the entire Flat Earth concept has been injected into the truth sphere deliberately by the Deep State Cabal in order to poison the well and discredit all the actual credible and reality based 'conspiracy theories' that normal folks need to wake up to and become aware of.
Even though individuals who subscribe (fall in to?) the flat earth concept trap may not themselves be deliberately cooperating with those who are attempting to distort the truth sphere, if the concept itself has been injected, then they themselves are subject to being manipulated.
I do NOT think the meme is saying that people who bring up flat earth are glowies. Just that the idea itself is a beast created and injected by the glowers.
'the idea itself is a beast created and injected by the glowers.'
FE has been around for centuries i doubt glowies can take the credit. but yes they are clever enough to co-opt it for infowarfare.
They keep trying to ""QUOTE"" the Bible about MuH FiRmAmUnT and MuH wUtYeRs, and when one tries to SHOW them the CORRECTED Truth, they go instantly to Leftist bullshit, start making all sorts of False Statements that really don't mean shit....
Am I a little bit miffed by them???
F***ing A Right I am, I've been very badly treated as much by the Flat Head Crowd as by the Covid Vaxxx Crowd, as by the Pro-Sociaists, and I really don't SEE ANY DIFFERENCE between them....
To e, they are ALL Exactly the same, think the same, attack the same, make false statements the same, can't hold or have a rational Discussion the same, and have similar IQs, and IMHO, Chimps are smarter....
So why the sticky? There should be silence on the issue and ban on both positive and negative posts on the matter.
Flat earth is just as insane to some as saying “Trump is still president” or “JFK is still alive” is to others. Neutrality is what we should strive for when truth can not be proven. Everything else is just personal opinions.
Mud you aren’t going to win anyone over here. I’ve long since spent most of my time on /pol
At least there when you get banned, you mostly earned it. Best of luck tho.
It's a worthy discussion to have, one that is not the same as actually discussing flat earth in its own right, but rather one that looks at it in the context of the (negative) impacts and potential origins.
The post is articulating the reasons why FE is not a viable topic here at GAW from the viewpoint of the modding team, who are responsible to maintain the forum purpose.

Voat didnt fall apart. The guy who ran it simply decided to close it down

true, but the nazis made voat really shitty at times.

upvoat
"Voat didnt fall apart. The guy who ran it simply decided to close it down"
facts
long live voat, my og of frens
If you think VOAT fell apart then you were never on VOAT. lol!
I was there from the GAW Reddit exodus to the bitter, messy end. It was a shithole.
I was on .win from day 1 it went public, but never paid attention to.win adding other communities. Can you give a timeline of when GA was added here? How does that compare to people leaving r/GA to go to Voat?

Did you not see the meme? They're saying that people who bring up flat earth are the "glowies", implying that they're not welcome here.
They're not saying, as you implied, that their ideas are respected but belong in a different forum.

Yes quite right.

Only Hindus and Muslims are religiously obligated to believe in a Flat Earth. The Bible makes no claims of a Flat Earth.
Has anyone ever succesfully explained why the sun's rays look like they are coming from RIGHT THERE ABOVE US?
If you lok at it, and see the angle of the rays, WHY DOES IT LOOK SO CLOSE!?
asking for a fren
I implied no such thing, I'm saying idiots have the right to be idiots, but not on our time.
So why the sticky? There should be silence on the issue and ban on both positive and negative posts on the matter. Flat earth is just as insane to some as saying “Trump is still president” or “JFK is still alive” is to others. Neutrality is what we should strive for when truth can not be proven.

Show me all the space pictures and videos (that are NOT CGI.) Nasa (snake tongue symbol) admits the photos are all cgi.
Why endless green screen space fails videos? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lJv44-ZyZw
A good video https://www.bitchute.com/video/wi4nfkRCmSdR/
Ps - moon video is fake as heck.

The sticky wasn't about FE, the sticky was about bots.
If you don't think Trump is still CiC right now then you haven't been paying attention or are a shill/glowy
This
Except even c/Conspiracies got tired of FE. There's a .win dedicated to it.
That must make the FE people so proud, their own c/FlatEarth place
Thanks, i didn't know that, now they have a place to dedicate their research.
We are all regular people with our own unique personalities. We are all anons, patriots, lovers of truth.
