It is no surprise that when it comes to subjects as sensitive as Pizzagate tensions and emotions run high. Uncovering what is definitely the most damning political scandal in recent history is bound to provoke feelings of anger, shock and dismay. However, if there is one thing that I am confident we all know will not help, it is violence.
In the wake of the recent armed vigilante event at Comet Ping Pong, I just wanted to write this post to show that our community does not condone his actions, or any actions like them in the name of Pizzagate.
In my experience as a mod, I have found that most deletions are due to spam posters and basic rules violations; I have yet to see a single person on Voat openly advocating or calling for violence, and I know that if I did the poster would be downvoted into obscurity before the post was deleted. This just reassures me that our movement is not at all what the mainstream media would have people believe. We are not deplorable, we are not violent, or fearmongers, or a disinfo campaign. We are investigators.
If the mainstream media wants to find any kind of confirmation about their beliefs to feed to the brainwashed masses, they are not going to find it here.
Thank you to all of our peaceful, brilliant researchers who go through hours of archiving emails and articles, reading through any leads they can find, and sharing those findings with our community. Because of you, the offenders we seek to bring to justice are desperate and panicking, probably already sacrificing their lower ranks to try to save themselves.
Keep up the incredible work,
Phobos

I fully endorse this message. We must prove this through research, not violence. This shooter fired rounds in a restaurant where he axiomatically knew children frequent. There is no forgiveness from me to him for this act. This is what differentiates this group from those who would endanger children. The full extent of this MUST be discovered to bring ALL parties (if any) to justice. We are investigators. Running up to suspects with literal guns blazing won't accomplish anything for anyone.

I've downvoated you, and here's why:
There was no way in fuck that guy was part of pizzagate.
Also, there has been no validation on the gun being fired.
Stop spreading anti-pizzagate propaganda.

Semantics. He wore our badge. He used our name. We must disavow him. I did just that. "Part of Pizzagate" is a stupid description to use for his use of our name in his crimes. It's subjective beyond recognition. He became part of the story, like it or not. This potential conspiracy will take many people, many hours of research, and we need all the eyes on this that we can get. We must draw people in to help us with this. Doing damage control on this, disavowing him, and saying he's NOT part of us, is what I did, and what we need to do as a group so everyone knows he's not endorsed by us ( or "a part of pizzagate", in the sense you're describing). Like it or not, he's associated with the story. This is politics, bud. I honestly don't care if he fired bullets or not TBH. Bringing the gun in endangered the kids because police have to come with their guns drawn, and that's a fucking stupid environment to knowingly subject kids to. Once I get my 100 voats I'll be back to repay the favor.

Badges?! we don't need no stinking badges. Since when were y'all issuing badges like frilly faggots up for decoration?

It's a metaphor, fuck face. Jesus Christ this place is like youtube with morons like you.
Hey_Sunshine ago
You still fail to realize what voat is. This is a place where anyone can have their say. So dont claim you speak for any one other than youself. You don't represent me nor I, you. So stfu with your virtue signaling and get with the program.

I'm having my say, I'm getting upvoated, and we have to disavow violence or we look like insane BLM terrorists. This is the problem with any group of people. The morons among them fail to collectively attempt to disown the really shitty parts.
Hey_Sunshine ago
And an upvoat for your thoughts, let's hope justice prevails

The amount of power in the hands of lunatics is what's important. It'll be hard enough to expose them without us turning on each other. Cheers
