I've been convinced one particular regular voat user is FBI or affiliated w/ some govt. group. You can find plenty of stories where the FBI infiltrates groups and creates "terrorists" to prosecute. In some cases they've targeted the mentally ill and in other they've offered exorbitant funding to encourage a manufactured threat. Just search it. There's no shortage of cases. I'm thinking of a particular and constant voat user that regularly encourages violence and regularly escalates conversations to death threats. I can't be the only person that has noticed this cunts pattern. Do you know who I'm talking about? When voat went down I honestly thought this cunt had created a case.
Yeah, I mean the internet is pretty low tier for convo. It's why it's best to find the smaller communities online, find people you respect and have a discussion.
I see a lot of people getting back into old hobbies which require face to face socialisation. D'n'D, board games, book clubs.There's even meet up groups you can go to for discussion, or you can start your own. I'm involved in a few. I'd recommend it, get to know people, get involved in conversations. Be sure to invite along opposing views with a commitment to civil discussion though otherwise it just gets boring if everyone agrees. Even if you are trying to "reach the masses" you can do a lot just by interacting with the smaller groups. 7 degrees of separation and all that.

That is the taste I was left with. That is also why I am here, on Phuks, spreading broccoli memes. Even with just shitposting I find myself getting a better conversation out of people here than anywhere else on the internet insofar as right now.
And that is a huge disappointment to me, when I would spend hours cultivating my thoughts in my head for a post for the night. I would spend all day thinking how I could word things correctly, what topics were best suited to the discussion, and how I could try and "reach" the masses.
I would then post my content and sit there just watching the condensation build up on my beer. Nothing ever happened. People didn't have genuine feelings almost. Its like we were all just living in a time warp, simply larping ourselves away to the horizon. I sincerely wanted to reach people, I wanted to inform people of the banking cartels, the hidden groups, etc.
But nobody has time for that, I guess. People just want to talk mad shit on the internet, get a few laughs out of the ordeal, then wake up and forget it ever happened. Fucking SOYLENT GREEN type shit! I hate it!.
And again, that is why I am here, on Phuks, posting broccoli memes.
