I tried to make a post to Great Awakening and received a message that, "You are not authorized to submit links or start discussions in this subverse. Please contact subverse moderators for authorization".
What the fuck is up with that? Free speech? Apparently Not.
Open exchange of ideas? Not in that verse.
Is this to control content or is someone just too lazy to monitor the content posted?
Seems antithesis to a "Great Awakening".
So I will make my post here:
Is The Current Global Experience Birthing Pains For THE Great Awakening?
Metaphysical Pro Tip - Everything happens spiritually first and then that energy manifests physically.
Are we currently experiencing birthing pains of a great global awakening and a global rise of consciousness?
It is unclear where our current trajectory is leading to.
1. Post-modern Mad Max scenario?
2. Complete breakdown of ages old systems of control or is the old guard shoring up and taking control to a degree we can't even imagine?
3. Is this just a hiccup and when it's over (if it ends) will things just go back to they way they were?
I am not predicting a hippy-dippy, all we need is love scenario but I think a lot of people's paradigms are being challenged right now. I am hoping that those that perpetrate evil upon the world are seeing their control slip away.
Hopefully people are using this time for self reflection and contemplation of what brought us here and where we are going. I doubt it as from what I see around me the younger generations do not have the training or self awareness to do so.
I am hoping for the manifestation of a new awareness and a return to self governance, self determination, community, and faith.

You see, Trump criticizes the media for their fake news, but he doesn't shut them down, because they still have freedom of speech.
But I guess Trump doesn't have to moderate a subverse on Voat. He is only the leading defender of the free world.
I'm totally sure Trump would end the practice of free speech after even just one day of attacks from the likes of SBBH.
SBBH is fucking terrifying and I know the truth of this because I was a mod there 5 times. I have witnessed first hand the destruction they are capable of.
Look how they browbeat a poor crippled boy into banning everybody on Voat like King George the fucking Third. That is only but one example of the psychological terror of which I speak.
Freedom has no chance at all against so awesome and devastating a power as a shitposting subverse - and everyone on Voat should see this threat for exactly what it is.
The only way to save the freedom is to destroy the freedom.
That's how they saved Great Awakening.
Let's hope they never get the chance to save America.

That all sounds pretty crazy!
It's unfortunate such weak minded people make decisions for the board as you described.
If you are virtuous and your values guide your life you see attacks as confirmation that you are succeeding.

They were getting spammed by new accounts who were shitting up the place with submissions. The accounts were being created and submitting posts that were entirely off topic faster than they could be deleted and the users banned. If you want to be an approved submitter there, ask one of the mods. There's a whole list of people who are approved to submit there. It's designated by the [S] in the mod list. (Retards will think the [S] means they have special mod powers, but all it means is that you can make posts.)
Thats_not_my_dog ago
Thanks for the info.
I can see being preemptive as a solution but the verses name and the site it seems as being antithesis to the verse and the site.
I was pointing out the irony.
kneo24 ago
For every person who claims it's restrictive (I agree it is), no one can come up with a good solution to deal with the constant spam and harassment they were getting. For what it's worth, the spiritual posts are usually well received there.
I'll ping @Crensch here to see if he would like to add anything to this in case I missed something. He could better explain if I did.
Thats_not_my_dog ago
Thanks for the info on the sub.

Are you replying to the correct post?

It's a lesson to not use subs moderated by your enemies and that those who do participate are either your enemies or your enemy's useful idiots. It's always good to stay apraised of such idiots and as a result the Great Awakening sub has it's usefulness.
Thats_not_my_dog ago
Lesson learned.
blumen4alles ago
The moderator of that subverse is a giant roller-faggot.
I do not think things will go back to the way they were. This feels like another September 11th.
WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
Look at their mod log, it is a pro-censorship subverse. You must be approved to post there because it makes censorship easier when you just set the default for everybody to "censored". If you value free speech then you should block v/greatawakening and use other qtard subs like v/theawakening or v/qrv.
Also, please keep the qtard posts to those ghettos
Joe_McCarthy ago
In my observation there has been a good bit of deliberate disruption of that sub. People attacking it with porn, off topic submissions, etc. If that sort of thing happens enough it is predictable that submissions would be set to mod approval. There are a lot of trolls on Voat. There are also a lot of people that don't like QAnon a/o @Crensch. And in essence some are trying to cause trouble.
There is probably more to it than that. But there most definitely is that.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Man, that's rich coming from you, the guy who insists on posting porn on v/whatever but doesn't allow it on his subs.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Apples and oranges.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Cognitive dissonance.
Joe_McCarthy ago
You don't grasp the difference between posting goatse or some shit in a private sub where it is not wanted and softcore that some like in a system sub where anything goes is the explicit theme eh?
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Fuck off, kike.
Joe_McCarthy ago
That's about in keeping with the 'quality' input you typically offer. And you're even less the moron than many here.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Stop bothering me. Don't you have underage porn you need to beat off to?
Joe_McCarthy ago
You were the guy that first approached me in this convo. And that crack is going to get you banned.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Yes, I was, because you're a piece of shit who needs to be called out whenever possible.
Banned!!?? Oh, no, I can't post in your circlejerk of narcissism and hypocrisy, even though I never have before? What ever will I do?
Joe_McCarthy ago
You're the piece of shit. And an asshole. And a used up piece of shit at that.
And yeah, you're banned from my sub until I feel like lifting it. Maybe ban you from a couple of others too.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
"I know you are but what am I?" STFU, Pee Wee, no one cares.
And your threat of banning me from your worthless subs is meaningless, but hilarious.
Joe_McCarthy ago
I'd do a lot more than ban you if you were in my presence right now old man. Be glad you're not. You used up piece of shit.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
Why would you do that? What have I ever done to you other than call you out as pornographer and a jew, and then ridiculed you for the ridiculous creature you are? What are you saying, that that merits some physical response? You'd want to beat, stab, or shoot an "old man" because he hurt your feelings? Tell me, tough guy, I really want to know.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Oh come now You're not this dumb. You know what you did
TrialsAndTribulation ago
I guess I am that dumb. You're going to have to tell me. I mean, it's fair ... even criminals who are executed by law are tried and told the charges against them. So, since you want to harm or kill me, I deserve to know why.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Maybe you're drunk. Or maybe you think since it is the internet it is no big deal if you imply I'm in possession of child pornography. Do that face to face though and the punch in the nose I'd be giving you right now would be a pretty mild response. I might kill you anyway. But not intentionally. Beating up geezers is dangerous to their health.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
I didn't say child pornography. I said underage porn. I'm not implying it, I'm just repeating what I read in your own posts. You have an obsession with pornography that is well documented on this site. Others have noticed that you like "barely legal" porn, which as often as not has teenage girls who used a fake ID to get hired. Porn producers are as seamy, unscrupulous, and degenerate as anyone you can imagine (and I'm sure you can imagine plenty of the sort, being the sort of guy you are). This wasn't an idle accusation, it was based strictly on what you yourself have posted here.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Yours is a distinction without a difference. Underage porn is child pornography old man. I have never said I look at kiddie porn.
Barely legal porn is 18. That is much of the pornography out there. 25% or so I'd estimate. And if any of the girls are underage I'm unaware of it. That can get everyone involved in a lot of trouble - so it is very doubtful it is common.
This issue between us is more a matter of you seriously stepping over the boundary into libel as you dislike me personally and have a serious dislike for pornography. I'm not especially into porn. Certainly not hardcore porn. My interests are understated if anything. And the fact that you are an old coot no doubt plays a role here. You are offended by pornography. That's fine. I'm not an unabashed apologist either. Even used to picket the stuff. But asking me if I'm looking at kiddie porn is very punchable. Be glad I'm not in your face right now.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
What a thin-skinned whiny bitch you are. You argue like a jew and cry like a kike. Go watch your underage porn, you degenerate and fuck off.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Now you get banned from another sub.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
I'm not allowed in your clubhouse? Oh, wah fucking wah.
Joe_McCarthy ago
If you were a decent human being you'd man up and apologize. But no, you're an old snot. Fuck off. You're banned from yet another sub.
TrialsAndTribulation ago
I've never heard of that sub. Never been there until just now. I do like this post, though:

WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
I don't know why you would defend censorship. There's no excuse for it. Furthermore, censorship invites those sorts of disruptions. Your post sounds like you assume it's the non-qtards that disrupt that sub, but why would you assume qtards would tolerate being censored? People on /qrv/ hate /greatawakening/ with a passion. One is the 8chan crowd and the other is reddit hugbox crowd.
It's also stupid to assume that the censor deals out censorship fairly and dispassionately. Nothing breeds resentment within a community as strongly as censorship does, and the censors always end up trampling on their own community.
Joe_McCarthy ago
@Crensch is not the most rational person I've met - so I'm sure some of his actions are excessive. But I also run a sub myself and know that sometimes there is a need for 'censorship'. You seem to be ignoring, or don't care about, the fact that we have a lot of, shall we say, psychos on Voat. They come in, they hurl insults, they deliberately post crap to disrupt the sub. You mentioned QRV. That place is continually plastered with tranny porn. No one wants to see that shit.
So the upshot is that if sub restrictions are put in place - there is probably some reasonable reasoning for it being placed there.
WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
I have qrv blocked but sometimes I stop over there to see what they're talking about. When I visit I sort by "hot" and have never seen tranny porn. If people have been posting it there then that must mean that /qrv/ is an example of things working correctly by letting the community use upvotes and downvotes as quality control.
Joe_McCarthy ago
I'm not going to spend all day digging around looking for tranny shit from QRV - but here are a couple of the threads:
https://voat.co/v/QRV/3698240
https://voat.co/v/QRV/3690978
It all gets heavily downvoted. But in that sub downvotes have no effect on SCP and CCP and are otherwise irrelevant as it is an anon sub. There's no 'censorship' there - so some jagoff disrupts the place with that stuff.
WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
The main purpose of upvotes and downvotes is quality control. Punishing the person who posted it by taking their scp/ccp away was just a side effect of making low quality posts, and doesn't really even matter anymore now that the scp/ccp thresholds for new posts are gone.
Joe_McCarthy ago
Are you saying having negative CCP no longer limits how much one can post?
In any event the voting system is basically irrelevant in QRV because it has no impact on thread visibility as it's an anonymous sub.
WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
It certainly isn't stopping the spammers like it did 9 months ago
