We all know that the whole "banned for promoting hate" line is utter bullshit. It got banned because the powers that be over at Plebbit didn't like to have their own bullshit thrown back in their face, so the crybabies called in an AHS Tactical CP Strike which gave them enough ammo to shut the shit down. That brings a few questions to mind, though:

  1. Why the hell did the mods of the sub leave it set to open posting with no approval required? I mean, I get it, they want everyone to be able to post, but they had to know they were painting a target on their back. Leaving the place set to Moderated posting can completely nullify the usual AHS tactics.

  2. Where the hell are the posters from AHS keeping this stockpile of CP? I mean, one would think that the general authorities would be interested in seeing the user names and IP addresses of the people that perpetrate this filth over on Plebbit.

  3. Someone should set up a SuperStraight .win site, ASAP, if only to keep the idjits that want to run a smear against it from using it as a weaponized base.

Plebbit probably doesn't report for the CP to the authorities because they're in on it. They just shut down the sub, give out some token bans and call it a day.

I've often wondered if there wasn't some sort of shadow cabal behind that crap. I mean, it's pretty obvious that Reddit as a whole has a vested interest in keeping their strike force protected so it can continue to slap around any subreddit that the powers that be find even mildly opposed to their viewpoints, but that's a pretty deep rabbit hole.

Yeah idk if there's some kind of overarching organization to this or if it's just a manifestation of the ideology over multiple independent groups, but there's definitely organization to it. I like to think I'm quite skeptical but I can help but notice that these things seem to perpetually run together in a common direction.

It was a bit of a wild ride, so I had some trouble grasping the inclination of the founders/mods. Looking back now, with some of the things posted in this thread, I think it may have been pure naivete. My gut assumption was that it got picked up and thrown into popularity by guys from thedonald, it matched their sort of "energy" and interests. I've always thought they were naive as well, so I feel reinforced in my assumption.

It got a lot of attention for a while and now it can be used as a jab until it gets banned as hatespeech everywhere. So we'll at least see it once in a while even if there's no official group for it.

I think we all have some highly valid theories for this, but I'm personally not prepared to discuss mine in a coherent way. No matter your theory, though, it'll come down to a second question of "why are the perpetrators immune to the law".
