It used to be such a great sub. Now it's been infected by the hivemind. Truly a pity. It's now filled with what seems to be a bunch of autistic teenagers who think they're 'edgy' and free-thinking, yet they totally buy into the MSM narrative about Trump. I'm all for being skeptical of Trump and holding him accountable, but r/conspiracy has become r/politics 2.0 in some regards. It's filled with some of the most closed minded users you will ever engage with at the present moment.
Hopefully v/conspiracy can build something a little more in the spirit of how the sub used to be.
I've mainly used Voat for pizzagate, but I really hope more people come over to this sub. The attacks over at r/conspiracy are ridiculous, but at the same time they're painfully obvious. I have a feeling all of this will backfire for them just like it did with CTR. And at the very least, I feel good knowing that someone is wasting a lot of their money on this information war
it is ok a little quiet but normal yesterday was a complete troll fest because assange did an ama and that caused the overload of strange newbies ... of course re-edits is still screwed up in general but conspiracies is a last vestage
/r/conspiracy has finally taken a major hit from the corporate shills. upvoted a silly bit of Russia = Trump manipulation yesterday to like 12000 upvotes in a short period of time. Mods deleted it, and now there's more shills in the sub calling out mods for being Russian. haha I'm serious it's really fucking obvious and it's also gotta be expensive.
They have identified /r/conspiracy as a target, I think because over the last few days, /r/conspiracy has upvoted a few key points from the on-going pizzagate investigations and sourcing voat. They don't like that, and they want to take /r/conspiracy over like they did /r/politics.

I expect the reddit to improve. They got rid of the worst shill-protector mod.

I'll just say that the mods here are better than the /r/conspiracy mods even though a few are the same.
I should know, I run TopMindsOfReddit and /r/conspiratard. And even I think this place is better than /r/conspiracy.

maybe it was a play to limit the impact of Assange's interview, and also draw focus away from the FBI's ongoing investigation into Clinton.
chickyrogue ago
most likely

Well that' right there's gonna piss em off.
GodHand666 ago
Wow, that is some shit right there. I love where all this has them, scrambling in damage control.

Looks like it is being brigaded right now. Too many users online.
GodHand666 ago
I wonder if some juicy stuff dropped, or is about to drop there.
sweetholymosiah ago
theory: they're pissed that /r/conspiracy continues to include pizzagate revelations, unlike the rest of reddit.
