NR wants to sell merch. That alone should tell you everything you need to know.

People need to drink from the tap and stop expecting someone to bottle up the truth for them.

Lurker1955 ago

I agree that people should learn to think for themselves but not everyone is a geek or has the skill set to "drink from the tap" so blogs like Neon Revolt's and QTuber sites are critical for "red pilling". It's hard to get the people I know to even have any interest in the highly contested Govenor's race in the currently (and I stress currently) Red state where I live. This movement is an uphill battle outside the Voat echo chamber. You don't want to make it more difficult for " normies" to get information.

Amen. People that can't use critical thinking skills for themselves do not deserve the truth it the freedom it brings.

Lurker1955 ago

Gee maybe we should just euphanize all of them. Learning to use "critical thinking skills" is taught. Everyone deserves the truth and freedom. Your job is to teach and help wake them up.

e1337ninja ago

Euthanize.

FTFY

Lurker1955 ago

I find your attitude unhelpful.

CaptnObvius ago

We're working on getting people to think for themselves, but apparently critical thinking is about as rare as hen's teeth these days.

Lurker1955 ago

Please tell me how you are helping people to think for themselves. Carrot works better than the stick .

CaptnObvius ago

To a degree, yes, but beating them over the head with a stick isn't helpful at all.

I don't have time because I am too busy paying taxes. Further, I unplugged the TV and internet at home, so researching on a 5" android is cumbersome, at best. I need a board like Voat to compile information; yet even easier, Neon wraps it up very nicely. I find @Blacksmith21 's analysis very enlightening. I am of the wait and see camp. Nevertheless, the information is changing daily and very difficult to follow if you can't go at it full time. Happy Hen

There are two much better sources for this than NR on Twitter: Praying Medic and Lisa Mei Crowley. Neither of them has ever pulled a "Corsi" or a "Neon".

CaptnObvius ago

I don't see how anyone does anything on a phone, seriously. I have to work on a laptop or desktop. Not a phone/pad guy here, hate the damn things. Anyway, yes Neon does do a very good job, its only one perspective, but a good one.

anglojibwe ago

Same. I research from my work PC. I don't have one at home because I stare at 2, 19" screens 40 hours a week.

Blacksmith21 ago

In intelligence, patience is not a virtue, it is SOP.

GranimalSnake ago

Amen

anglojibwe ago

I don't see the harm waiting for his next post. I'll read it and compare.

Blacksmith21 ago

Absolutely. I will be doing the same.

GranimalSnake ago

I honestly didn't realize it was so bad. People are afraid of being wrong or outsiders... so they merely follow whomever the group seems to herd behind.

That's completely unAmerican.

CaptnObvius ago

Man I am wrong all the time, and I am not afraid to admit it. The great thing is that all of us together make a great team for removing the chaff and getting to the wheat. We all have one common goal, find the truth and share it.

AllHeadsDowntoBow ago

I love goats for this like no forum Ive seen since the early 2000s

GranimalSnake ago

Learning requires mistakes and errors. People seem to forget that and only want a filtered preapproved opinion that will fit within everyone else's.

We will end up with people debating in the streets like Ancient Greece by the time we're done. People need to care.

Vindicator ago

Learning requires mistakes and errors

Yes. In fact, without mistakes and errors, do you ever really learn anything at all?

GranimalSnake ago

I didn't... had to learn the hard way.

NoisyCricket ago

Worse, these dopes will tell YOU to start "critically thinking" by refusing to do any type of research and only believe what is satisfactory to one's own confirmation bias. Usually as spoon fed from a propaganda outlet. The propaganda affects people in every walk of life. It's as insane as it is frustrating.

CaptnObvius ago

I know, I have to change my position all the time as new information comes in. I find I am rarely 100% correct. It should be apparent to people that if you are "always" right, you're in an echo chamber. In the real world we are always shifting our positions and opinions as we analyze new data.

jzerocoolj ago

At the very least they should be discussing it with other anons and getting multiple perspectives on the drops.

Lurker1955 ago

Anons are not the only people involved in this battle and you need people who can act as a bridge to the "normies." You also need the "normies".You need to be less dismissive of the bulk of humanity. Everyone has value ( except my ex-husband.) You are starting to sound like the evil overlords we're fighting. As Q says this is not a game. This is a battle for the future of the world. Good vs Evil. Those plastic coffins were for us. Get over yourselves.

GranimalSnake ago

That's helpful... having someone spoon feed you is how we got to Anderson Cooper though... that and his mama's satanic sacrifice.
