Neon Revolt decided to make a post on his great big platform implying that OUR SUB v/GreatAwakening on Voat, may be infiltrated. Why? Because of 2 questionable usernames on our ping list.
At the time of his post, our mod team for v/GreatAwakening, consisted of ME and @Shizy. I got another mod last night, but haven’t been able to introduce him yet. The [D] is for designer because I wanted to make our sub all fancy. She doesn’t even have access to modding tools.
Those 2 users that Neon mentioned, have NEVER been in a mod position or helped make any decisions for this subverse. I’m pretty surprised by this.
I was used to only 1300 subscribers or so. I’ve been on my own until recently when I added @Shizy as a mod. The people on my ping list are just average subscribers that want to be on it. I periodically ask if someone wants to be added or removed. If anyone is shady, that does not mean they have INFILTRATED v/GreatAwakening. Isn’t that a bit of a jump NEON?
These people aren’t mods here. They have no say in decision making. They are simply users who are on a ping list which I have done since the beginning. I try to bring as much attention as possible to Q when he posts.
Let me show you what happens. When Q makes a post, I’ve always made a Voat post and tried to make it to where Newbies would understand how to read 8chan posts. I’ve always focused most on helping newbies. If there is a mixture of anons and Q, I put arrows to show them who is who. I would annotate them. This would be a typical day Q posted...
Q Posts - Tues - Sept 4th
Usually I, will ping the people on this list. These are just regular everyday users that have chosen to be on the ping list so they will see a notification when they get on.
I’m not saying that ANY of my users are bad. But I would imagine that if we go thru both our subverses subscribers list, we would BOTH have ones that weren’t here for the right reasons.
When you guys got banned, I welcomed you guys with open arms...
Welcome Great Awakening Reddit Refugees!
To me, what clicked in my head was, Q! We knew this day would come. WWG1WGA! You all see how new people here, especially if you’re from Reddit, are treated. I asked my subscribers to treat you guys differently. You guys weren’t just Reddit users. To me, you are Q family!
I’ve often told people, if you’re on Twitter and you see another Q follower, you don’t even think about it. You know they are on your side. We’re on the same team. That’s what I was trying to do for you all! I’ve been working behind the scenes like a mad woman because I’ve had non stop notifications since this has happened. Thank God for @Shizy. I got another mod last night. I haven’t even got to announce him yet. But he started last night. I’ve been trying to work fast and be ready for more mods depending on how many more poured in. I never complained.
I’ve been getting threatening/blackmail type messages in my inbox of people demanding to be a mod. One was showing screenshots of his 8chan posts, as we spoke, where he was saying “v/GreatAwakeming was compromised, we should move some place else.” He wanted me to let him help me. I said no. He told me he was going to tell the others. He warned me in the end that I was making the wrong decision. Was that you guys?
SEVERAL people have been aggressively harassing me and asking me to let them be a mod. I’ve taken screenshots of everything. I said over and over, I won’t be compromised. That it’s tough now but it will work out in the end and above all, it’s for Q.
Now I can see how subs get infiltrated. They try to make you think, “Only if I succumb to the pressure and hand out mod tickets then everything would be ok.” If I wanted to just have a break and not take on such a heavy load, I could easily have a line of people wanting to be a mod. But I refuse to to be compromised. I know that the decisions I’m making right now could very well make a big impact on the Q movement and that means the world to me.
So a new mod has to be someone I know, someone that has been here a while and has participated, someone that me and @Shizy agreed on and that we both trust. @MolochHunter joined last night.
Neon Revolt, I wrote you a comment the day of the ban. I’m assuming it was you. My comment is right under yours. You didn’t even have the courtesy to reply to me. I didn’t try asking you for anythjng. I was just letting you know that whatever you guys decided, if you needed my help I was there.
Then, I said exactly this... ”Banning here is a lot different than on Reddit. I would like to explain that if I can because you don’t want people on Voat flipping out on you guys just because you aren’t aware of some things.”
No response from you Neon. The reply was from a troll that has hundreds of alts, that I try not to even acknowledge, so we’ll leave it at that.
So then, I made a post in your new sub... I never asked anyone to leave or anything. I welcomed everyone and said if you needed anything to let me know.
Welcome Reddiit Refugees! - Let me know if you need help learning how to do stuff here!
Once again, to you and this time your sub, I tried to warn you and said...
“We got a lot of new subscribers today too. I made a post welcoming them. I recommend you read it, just so you can get an understanding of Voat culture. If not, you’ll be going thru hell. Free speech is everything to goats. (Voat Users.”)
Then by yesterday, you guys were just being smeared. You were on your last leg. People were saying 13 mods, 8 pages of deletions. So I tried reaching out again TWICE.
Here and here.
Both times I said that I was trying to warn you guys and that it’s not too late to turn it around...
I wanted to warn them. They cannot be strict here. It will not work. Dealing with shills is the cost we pay to have free speech. I’ve been fighting this shill with alts like crazy. I ask for advice by some of the mods I trust. They helped me decide on what to do about this today. There’s nothing wrong with that. 13 mods? Even pizzagate doesn’t have that many.
It’s not too late to talk with some people that know Voat and just take some advice. I have had around 2500 new subscribers in 2 days. I haven’t asked anyone to come. They just showed up. That’s great. They’re welcome. My point is that I’m not trying to overstep my boundaries. I even have their old sub on the startpage I made... start.io/Qanon. I have many Q related links there.
Hopefully someone can talk to them and have them talk to someone. They are going to have a storm of shills if not. It’s only day 2 and can be turned around. They have already banned people I know.
When I woke up today, I saw that you guys decided to remove the bans. I stayed away. I didn’t disturb you. I obviously wasn’t someone you guys wanted to talk to. But I hoped that at least something I said maybe got thru to someone there.
Now I discover why you and the mods have ignored me. How? By a user pinging me to a post by Neon Revolt, my FAVORITE BLOGGER. In my comment to him above, I show a screenshot of posts I’ve made about him. Do you know that I donate money to you every month Neon? Before you made it appear that v/GreatAwakening was INFILTRATED because 2 average everyday users were on my ping list, you couldn’t have just said a friendly reply to my personal comment to you, and then public post? Did anyone ever think to just ASK ME? How did it help the cause to imply that v/GreatAwakening could be infiltrated because of 2 users on my ping list had questionable usernames if you compared them to the ones you found on REDDIT?
This was shady guys. You didn’t know me. At every turn, you guys are the ones that have caused division. While I was saying WWG1WGA, you guys were researching usernames on Reddit and trying to find the tiniest little something to cause division. Hello? THEY WANT US DIVIDED. Sound familiar?
I find it fishy that you guys closed yourself off, we’re letting ((( them ))) win. You were giving the deep state exactly what they wanted. Then I thought, great! They are coming around. Nope, now what? Neon Revolt, with a huge following, just did the classic move. Plant a seed of doubt about v/GreatAwakening. Sit back and watch the division. You just operated a little more smooth than Jerome Corsi.
Q is not smiling right now. You guys need to get back to the drawing boards. You all do what you want, I’ll be at the finish like with the Q team.
Anyone is welcome to stay on v/GreatAwakening or go. I don’t know about Neon and v/TheAwakening, but I can swear on my life, I’m in this for the right reasons. For Q, Trump, and to take our country back and, I WON’T sell out.🇺🇸
Even tho I’m hurt, I still say WWG1WGA because this movement is our last chance and I won’t be petty and go inside my bubble. To me, you are all still family. My Q family. Family don’t always have to get along.

Hello been a lurker here on Voat for 2 years, and was on Reddit since this last May. I just wanted to add my .02 cents to this as I was a mod there. First off, The original Reddit sub was compromised probably the whole time there I have been on Reddit. Even Q has confirmed this in this post #1489.
The Great Awakening (TGA) mods were removing posts for stupid reasons and censoring others by deleting their comments. Heck, I was even banned for 3 days in order to silence me. When I approached a mod about it to find out what the reason was, they played the blame game as if they didn't know what a mod log was and couldn't find out.
Then suddenly out of nowhere, one of the GA mods raised holy hell and tells everyone that (TGA) that he is stepping down to protest that the mods are comp'd and demanded these mods be kicked out. Then this mod shows these screen shots (which I never read) because I really didn't care about another Internet soap opera drama unfolding before me in real time. After a bit of self reflection in the last couple of days, I am starting to wonder if this scenario was planned all along as controlled opposition using a consensus cracking method within the already controlled opposition sub in order to cause further division among the subscribers.
Then this mod opens The Great Awakening (T_GA). I was concerned about the division of the group, but he promised free speech and nothing would be censored and I thought thought maybe the division was worth the trade-off. I then became a mod on the T_GA. about over a month ago. One thing I found strange about T_GA is this same mod never seemed to be on board for Q and never had a clue what the latest Q post was even about, but I let it go because not everything happens has an ulterior motive.
What I find most interesting is the mod from TGA tells me that the mod/owner of (T_GA) isn't who he says he is, but I misssed the message 2 days before hell broke lose, I finally saw his message and asked him what is all about and I just got to Reddit minutes before the take down.
Since we are all idle, he sends me like 10 screen shots in a row. I guess the biggest coincidence is these same shots that are used by NeonRevolt except the one set is in night mode and NR's are the default day mode, but with the same marks to highlight what I was supposed to be looking at. Is the mod in the new voat group NeonRevolt himself? I cannot say for sure, but we all know how coincidences are really not coincidences at all.
https://www.neonrevolt.com/2018/09/14/surviving-the-onslaught-fighting-for-victory-patriotsawoken-voat-qanon-greatawakening/
There is already a v/greatawakening here, so why not assimilate into that original Voat group instead? Was it also a coincidence that the same compromised mod team is now here too in their new voat group? It sure looks like the same mess but on a different platform with their need to keep control.
One last word to the Voat owners and mods: The new board of the dubious v/theawakening should be shut down, because I fear that was the plan to herd us all here and then threaten the Voat owner/mods to take down voat or face litigation after MSM cries about how racist it is there, how public figures are slandered with 'crazy conspiracy stories' that hang out at pizza shops with no basement, and the hate is unfathomable beyond belief.

agreed, i also start putting some energy into finding my way around 8chan. voat is a good bridge but it isnt safe. lets see how many weeks or months it lasts.
i move along with Q that 8chan may be the last refuge. but my teenage son just explained to me that the public internet isnt safe at all, //they// can always take a server offline, which suggests that we may experience a shift to using TOR browser and surfing the deep web for some time.
i also served as a mod on TGA (sorry, T_GA, but i just cut the underscore now), during its past 2 weeks, until i got thrown off the team last tuesday and, 2 days later, banned from TGA, only hours before everything crashed.
i call bullshit when i see it. thus, after a few days on the mod crew, learning how to handle reddit modding and getting a feel on how things work there, i started mentioned my concerns.
i perceived huge chaos that, from my pov, was the result of unclear intent AND missing rules of engagement. i.e., a rule like 'no ETs or other fringe stuff Q or DJT dont talk about' in the side bar would have made things much easier for users and mods. 'common sense' is no good foundation for modding a community in a transparent and human way.
i perceived controlled opposition - not logically but intutitively - without clearly knowing where it came from.
that, together with some angry mails to the mod crew about removals and bans, made me check the mod logs of the past days.
although the mod training talked about an approach of giving friendly 1-7day bans for rule violations, and use permaban only for obvious shills and repeated rule violation, i found only permabans. most of them without a reason given. heh?
similar with removed posts, often, there was no explanation given for the removal.
i am all for transparency and inpeccability so i insisted on explanation for these actions - after all, new mods need to be taught the business - which triggered certain people to react aggressively.
in the end, i was the villain. typical narcissist (DS) manipulation techniques were used on me, like gaslighting, projection, accusation of lying and scheming as controlled opposition, all of that shit. so funny that Q posted 2170 the next day, lol.
however, i didnt wish the sub and its crew any bad. i wasnt sure yet whether the cruel behavior was part of a psychological shadow reaction of individuals or a crooked overall intent.
grateful for all information coming up these days, although i perceive neon revolt being part of a scheme. it involves parts of the old GA mod crew which also had their fingers in CBTS, and now it looks like also TGA is part of it.
i may err here, but i always had the feeling that TGA was intended to be the new hub people migrate to when GA crashes.
therefore, on the mod crew, i also worked on getting the guidelines/rules straight so users know what and how to post, and mods have less work. i knew that chaos would take over with a few thousand people more on board.
i sense that originally, only GA was supposed to crash but this timeline suddenly changed.
this massive purge which highlights social media censoring practise may have been the nail in reddits coffin that makes the entire platform crash. curious to see things unfold...
