I'm sure you all heard about the PewDiePie "antisemite" scandal that the media once again pulled out of their ass in a lousy attempt at further restricting the internet. Fortunately, they did such a ridiculously sloppy job that the did our job for us and turned a very large number of people against them. What we now have is +-53.000.000 pissed off people (assuming many subscribers are inactive but many supportive people didn't subscribe to him) that witnessed first hand how trustworthy the media is: not at all.
So about 4 hours ago PewDiePie tweeted a video that explains the greater agenda behind the attacks on him, which will obviously be watched by a shitton of people. The interesting thing is that the video has #pewdiegate in the title, which is phonetically similar to #pizzagate. Here's how we can use this to our advantage: we go on twitter and tweet about the media being full of shit (preferably on a rational basis) and attach the hashtags #pewdiegate and #pizzagate. We keep it down with the horrible, crazy sounding stuff to avoid scaring newbies away. I'm pretty sure many of his supporters are critical and curious enough to learn the whole story behind the media's bias.
As soon as the amount of his followers pressuring him to talk about pizzagate hits critical mass, he will have to tell the truth to roundabout 53 million loyal, young, easily influencable followers, which will invevitably lead to a chain reaction.
/pol/ thread I discovered this and had the idea: http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/113082658
His tweet about the video: https://twitter.com/pewdiepie/status/832661703825321985
The video itself: https://youtu.be/JLrS3UopPF8YouTubeYouTube
EDIT: This was up for two seconds on the pizzagate main sub before getting deleted (reason rule 4). I kind of get that but I think this deserves more traffic than possible on the meta subs, due to the very big opportunity we have here. If there's any mod here that agrees with me, feel free to move this.
EDIT 2: This is the re-upload to the main sub, as the mod @wecanhelp was so nice and let me post it here again after I asked him. I don't know how long this will stay here so be quick to give me your opinions and ideas.

you guys need to calm down and just be happy that pewdiepie is redpilling his audience. you don't need to overwhelm people who are just waking up to some of the most fucked up shit. if they really are awoken, they'll go searching for the truth and eventually find out one way or the other. I'm not trying to promote passivity, I'm just saying moderation is important.

Piss offEdit: I disagree with you

you seem unhinged which just puts people off from our side. you guys are going to scare the common folk away by being overly-aggressive. it's an extremely touchy subject yet some of you guys seem to not get that and think just autistically blurting out pizzagate out of context is going to do jack shit besides make us look desperate.

I think it'd be a better first step with #followthemoney

That's funny, I never even suggested how I propose to attach the pizzagate tag to perdiedie. I haven't done anything or suggested action that is unhinged in any way.
Spreading awareness is a good thing.

so why come at me like I've said something offensive or wrong when I just want to have nuance to things instead of trying to drop bowling ball sized red pills onto kids who are just coming onto our side? The legitimacy of the movement will come. the evidence is on our side, we don't need to be overly-aggressive and scare people away.

You're right, my reply to you was childish, I was wrong, I apologize.
jv209 ago
I appreciate that. Sorry if I'm coming across as holier-than-thou, but I'm just stoked pewd's has helped us out this much. if some people want to take advantage of this situation to spread pedogate, I get it, but I just think it's too much, too soon for anyone who is really being red-pilled.

Nah not at all. It was a fair BS call on your part. Absolutely fair.
Yes, it's an invasive way to spread information. But I have recently started believing more that anything that needs to be spread, should be spread without qualms of appropriateness or politeness, especially on the internet.
The currency of the moment is memes. Attaching pg to pewdie spreads awareness that the meme is still alive and well, which consciously or subconsciously sparks curiosity. Genuine curiosity is one of the first stages in the redpilling of a normie. Especially when, like you said, the evidence is on our side, genuine curiosity is the fish hook that will tear them out of the water.
In execution I personally would advocate for an approach that casts a wide net, by attaching to this trending topic, then simply linking to a slow, fact-filled, non-sensational, informative video regarding the questions that some of our leads have prompted. In this way it is both aggressive and conservative. Aggressive in the spread of the meme, and conservative in it's claims and assumptions. Due to the nature of pg, once curiosity is sparked, it is next best to further stoke the curiosity by simply presenting the facts of the evidence. For example, to introduce a theory about Alifantis' exact function to a normie is innapropriate. All speculation is innapropriate at this stage.
The point isn't to devise memes that convince people pg is real, and the crimes have been committed. The point is to devise memes that spark, stoke, and encourage the proposal of honest questions from rational minds.
