Okay, @kevdude, seeing as how you seem to have difficulty in keeping up with anything outside of your throne room at v/ProtectVoat and your "shitposting" playpens, allow me to present and translate some of the timeline you have missed/ignored which led you to believe I had made up my mind before I gave you an opportunity to respond directly to a suspicion of mine and something that [Redacted 1] floated by me.
"Tl;dr" it or call it "cryptic" as a means to evade/deflect, if that's what you must. But if, and that's a big fucking if, you aren't as malicious as you appear to be and you actually give a flying fuck about why I'm pissed, try actually seeing my perspective and understand where I'm coming from and why I communicate via music when shit is hitting the fan.
As an aside, contemplate also why Dial tries to use music that I like, to smear me by association -- though I suspect that you know all about that... but I digress.

"Where will you be, when they tense for warfare?"
Imagine how much it hurt waking up that day, to find that Srayzie had deleted her account, after being hounded mercilessly with a smear campaign for months, without my having a single notification in my inbox about it... listen to the fucking song and/or read the selected lyrics.
Y'see, there's this festering rumor being spread that I don't care about others and the hard work they put in around here, but that's completely and utterly false no matter how many times it's repeated by ignorant sows.
Watching what had been done to srayzie, you lot can't imagine how much it hurt, after everything she and I had been through -- the ups, the downs, everything in between.
Go on, try to lie and paint it as though I was cucked by titty pictures, like you've tried to push about others. See how well that sticks.

[Redacted 1] points out inconsistency with regard to you in the situation of ES attacking me, suggests ulterior motives behind you modding me to PV.

In response to [Redacted 1], I defend you in the wake of the claim regarding ES and state, quote,
So far I'm not sold on kev being bad, though there's apparently some more catching up I need to do. At this time, it looks like more of the same infighting that is desired by the truly bad actors. Could I be wrong about kev's allegiance? Sure, but I'm not there yet. You know I look at things from my own perspective, rather than letting others tell me what to think.
Something is very wrong with this picture and you can be damn sure I want to get to the bottom of it rather than dropping nukes.

You, somehow, are only at the "possibility" stage of an ES connection (challenging my belief that you had ever listened to one ounce of my research, which you claim is the reason you modded me to PV, or that you ever cared about the attempts by ES and co. to drive a wedge between myself and others); at this stage, I decided I was suspicious enough of you, to let @Crensch do his thing (not that I could stop him, one way or the other).

In response to the ongoing and escalating smear against srayzie, which you appear complicit in or otherwise happy to let slide while actively contributing to it and pretending you aren't.
Are you without 'sin', Kev? (You know I'm not religious, so "sin" should not be interpreted as strictly pertaining to the 7; are you without transgression in this?)

"Research assignment"
You attempt to send me on a goose chase and sick me on to virge because, quote,
@virge has deleted their comment history. So they can claim whatever they want. You can't downvote past 7 days, so why wipe their entire history? We can't see ALL of what they wiped, but we CAN go back in time to Voat as it was 9 moths ago.
https://preview.voat.co/u/virge/comments (whatever PW you used back in the Fall of 2018 should log you in)
Not pressing, but you do like to dig and this shill is certainly trying to exploit the current drama for their own purposes.
Solidifying my growing suspicion that you are, at absolute best, making a self-serving power play to become the only 'builder' standing (smearing srayzie and virge), who would then allow the subversive and malicious behavior of many individuals to carry on unchallenged, and have sought to use me as a puppet.
So, tell me, is it virge trying to exploit the situation, or is it you? Because it sure looks like it's you.

Official resignation, ahead of schedule in response to "Research Assignment", but was otherwise already planned long beforehand.
"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." ~ Jimi Hendrix(?)
On the smearing of Srayzie:
I could pull up links to the relevant comments if I had char limit to do so, but I'm going to assume you're aware enough of your own words.
Here's what I've seen:
You've occasionally said that you don't like what zyklon and co. did (continue to do).
What I haven't seen, though, is you take a direct approach to fighting or chastising those involved.
Instead, I've seen you pile on by playing to misogynistic rhetoric; blaming her gender & emotions. Oh, and the lies, kev... oh the lies. Omission of truth may be more accurate, but nonetheless, you seem quite content in playing the crowd and making out that srayzie is nothing more than an emotional, power hungry hussy (funny how much that narrative lines up with NiggerRevolt and co.'s bullshit) -- which I know that you know is bullshit.
Conceptually, with regard to taking a stance against censorship, PV has a place & worth.
What it's become, though -- how it's exploited and used as a weapon... It has become untenable in my opinion.
I've checked the Voat User Agreement and it seems to me that the way PV is being used is completely out of line with the UA; you have no right or authority to dictate how non-system subverses are moderated -- nor do you have the right to interfere, or allow/encourage interference by way of "shitposting" brigades & manufactured crises, with non-system subverses.
PV has turned into nothing short of a corrupt instrument for the facilitation of witch hunts, under the guise of defending against censorship.
Sure, on occasion, PV has brought valid attention to actual cancer -- but it is also giving a free pass to those (cancerous in their own way) who poke and prod at otherwise non-malicious mods, using smears & manufactured crises, until they react and enable the "shitposters" (and no, I don't mean all of them) to them use PV as their own personal weapon & shield.
So far as I can tell, you don't care for what all users want, you care about what "shitposters" want. This is something I have observed over the course of this whole shitstorm. I invite you to convince me otherwise, but I suspect that won't be easy.
Closing time, last call... are you going to treat me the same as you have Crensch, Vindicator, srayzie & Shizy?

To be fair, evidence suggests the average Human is pretty low on the IQ scale. Most people actually are legitimately stupid. Isn't it fair to observe the same scale generally applies to Voat?
argosciv ago
Y'know what? This attempt at an earnest response kind of reminds me of a parrot:
A bunch of repetition, wing flapping (hand waving) and shitting all over the place.
But let's go over it point by point...
And how long have I been pointing this out? Months to a year or more.
Didn't want to listen to my research then, but now, now that I and others point out the inconsistency and/or ignorance, now you agree? Is this like how you somehow didn't know what kind of shitbag hojuruku is?
Let's not play pretend here, Kev. You know there's another reason why I know that you should have understood the ES connection before this past couple of weeks -- it's not something to be discussed aloud, but you know why that is too.
Really? This is the direction you want to take your response? You know that is absolute horseshit. Don't pretend you don't know what "playing both sides" looks like.
"But, #CrenschManBad! Subversives be attempting to malign, must be that they being truthful, #CrenschManBad!"
I did not say for you to go after their sub(s), in fact I explicitly stated that you (in reference to v/ProtectVoat and yourself) have no right to engage in that with regard to non-system subverses.
See this is where you're twisting shit around to make your position and giving of free passes tenable.
They are not trying to provoke mods into getting their users to "accept "justified censorship"", the agenda is quite clear here. They themselves just seek to exert control and have subverses demolished in general or at least disband the moderation teams of said subverses.
Sometimes they do it for no particular reason, but looking at the targeting of pizzagate, GreatAwakening and QRV, well, anyone with open eyes can put together the common factors these subverses' concepts/themes share, notice the common links between those on the attack and discern the agenda and who is most likely the subversive controller type, and who is just jumping on the bandwagon -- except you, apparently. No, somehow you have great difficulty in keeping up -- even with the oodles of research myself and others have shared with you.
Who the fuck are you to hand out "assignments" when you, clearly, don't even fucking listen to anything that might be shared with you?
What is it with you and attempting to weaponize/scapegoat your mods in the wake of this shitstorm?
Is there some other reason you try to send people on these assignments? You're not just trying to get a feel for what others are putting together so you can get ahead of the narrative when suspicion shifts in your direction, are you?
Correction, it has plenty to do with srayzie AND a host of other reasons. Are you seriously pretending that there hasn't been an overarching agenda against srayzie, @Vindicator, @Crensch, myself, other users, v/pizzagate, v/GreatAwakening and v/QRV? Are you that far isolated in your ivory tower and throne room? Or are you just playing dumb?
I disagree with anyone who tries to paint this as a matter of gender, I have not upvoted any comment which takes that approach (to my recollection) even if I agree with other statements in it. There's plenty of things that Crensch and I disagree on, but if you think you're going to make me suddenly dislike him or believe that he's being "assisted" by the malicious party...
From the comment you linked, this is what Crensch said:
Y'see, Kev, there's a huge difference between Crensch's comments on the relevance/non-relevance of gender in this, versus what you're doing.
Crensch has his opinions, and has pointed out glaring, inescapable hypocrisy from the malicious party -- but he has not used it as a vector of attack to pile on to the smearing of srayzie being spearheaded by zyklon and co., unlike you. If you aren't with the malicious party and otherwise have a single shred of decency in you, you'll take a fucking step back and evaluate the bile you've spewed and the truths you've omitted and capitalized upon.
Are you implying that you and others haven't, at some point or time, behaved in exactly the same matter (hell, even I have, you gonna hang it over me?)? You're just latching on to it because he states it explicitly.
Do you really think this is going to sell your #CrenschManBad narrative? Crensch has indeed consistently destroyed many deserving users and you know it and have had no discernible problem with it until now -- now, Crensch is your new Bogeyman because he dared to challenge you/PV and dared to make a move which woke everyone up to how ridiculous this situation is getting.
Can the entirety of his actions be defended? Not necessarily, but the sum total of what he is doing is absolutely justified if it exposes the hypocrisy and hunger for power that has been festering away unchallenged around here for months going on years.
Did he say that? Or did he say that he is not the average bear and that "far more" users are stupid than he first thought? Nice conflation there, Kev.
But y'know what? Even if he were to explicitly state that the average Voat user is stupid, he would not be wrong.
Very weak sales pitch for #CrenschManBad, Kev.
And he has stated in no uncertain terms why he too has become disillusioned with it and instead went with his heart and principles when it became clear to him what PV has become, if not what it was the whole time.
Has he, in any way, said that or encouraged it? Stop with the spinning, Kev. It's laughable.
Fucking KEK. You just described PV, SBBH and rPV. Not Crensch, v/GreatAwakening or v/pizzagate.
Riiiight. Yes, that must be why the modlist there is losing people who are becoming critical/suspicious of you. They actually want to overthrow it and seize power for themselves.
Kek. No. PV isn't in his way. Even you aren't.
Mmmmm nice one, Kev. Speaking of power plays/grabs after I question the apparent power play by you, which you have not dissuaded by suspicion about.
How about you do it? I'm fairly confident that he has no intent or desire to see this place become reddit at all -- no matter how much you want to make it look like that's the case.

Uh, no, kev said that.
Dismember ago
Ah, my bad messed it up, I'll edit. Either way @Crensch hasn't answered yet. I hope he does because I think there's a way forward in this and If I hear him say that, I'll take his word for it and then go from there.
argosciv ago
Thanks.
Yeah I want to believe that too, but so long as the smearing of srayzie and others continues, I don't see it.
With that in mind, I've had my say for the time being and although I'm going to remain suspicious of what's going on, I'm open to seeing things move toward a neutral, if not positive, direction.
Dismember ago
I'm not sure neutral will work but if the system subs aren't a target, then the solution might just be easier than everyone thinks.
Crensch ago
Would my answer change your mind about anything?
Dismember ago
My mind isn't set on anything so far regarding the relevant events here on Voat.
Vindicator ago
How could Crensch refute whether you received pics from her?
If you aren't willing to share the DM, then why did you spread the smear? Especially if you're such an advocate for people's right to participate here? It's completely logically inconsistent. It also show low character.
My opinion has never mattered to you, Kev. You've never respected me. That's been clear from day one. And you can see that hasn't phased me in the slightest. I see you spreading falsehoods, refusing to take responsibility for your role, trying to crush criticism you don't want to hear and acting exactly like the powermods you so frequently lament, and I'm talking about it. You could take it as an attack, or you could take it as a wake up call to examine your conduct, admit you are wrong, and be a better human being.
You might want to, because other people will. People with consciences who care about right and wrong.
Vindicator ago
Wrong. You made the claim. You substantiate it.
Otherwise, you are using smear tactics to suppress another user's right to participate here by destroying their reputation. It's exactly what Zb and his trolls do, and it's despicable.
Again: underhanded and deceitful attempt to discredit someone whose speech you want to silence because you cannot beat him in honest debate.
Low, Kev. Very low.

Vindicator ago
They've been doing that shit for months. Long before Crensch ever started making a point. Claiming they're working together is almost as low as claiming you received pictures from "srayzie". Disgusting.
Vindicator ago
I thought you said trolls don't matter, Kev, because it's just a shitposting subverse? Which is it?
Vindicator ago
WTF, Kev. You've known for a year ES was involved.
Exactly how is @Crensch being assisted by people who attacked srayzie?
Crensch ago
I'd love to know this, too. Dial still attacks me and links me to "working with" (kek) kevdude.

Beauseant.
NOMOCHOMO ago

virge ago
It's really as simple as good vs. evil and the rest varies in interpretation from person to person, so I just satirize it.
This is the Internet. We all mess around, because we're human. I was just doing my own thing and got swept into all of this because I had the audacity to (mostly) ignore SBBH, GA, QRS, PV, etc. I'm here for content, not drama - but I admit I participated in the drama before realizing just how serious it actually was.
Times change. So does my position. Who I support is still the same as day one (Putt, Free Speech), all the other allegiances are not what I thought they were and appear to have changed dramatically over time so I no longer hold strong opinions one way or the other. Shifting sands and all that such nonsense.
NOMOCHOMO ago
I support free speech, and putt if he protects it.
thanks for the explanation.
