Here is a basic hypothesis about the internet:

A plan to control it by squeezing out humans and replacing them with AI has been getting rolled out for a number of years, perhaps it was in place from the start of the internet. The forum of these โ€œjimmyโ€ posts seems to have shown the pattern, in this anons experience. And although this anon has less direct experience of the chans, the same things seems to have happened there.

 

What was observed was a variety of factors that would tend to drive people away from the forum.

  1. Endless โ€œtechnical problemsโ€ that made the board glitchy. Very half-assed assurances of fixes never came to anything.

  2. A popular voting system was abolished for no apparent reason.

  3. Popular, good-natured posters were banned for no apparent reason, while certain โ€œtrollsโ€ remained.

  4. The anons experience getting contacted by a very โ€œfriendly posterโ€ that โ€œbefriended himโ€, manipulated him to a certain extent, then flipped very dramatically around โ€œpizzagateโ€โ€“ this turned out to be the first poster the anon discovered to be a bot. This same poster threatened another quality poster on that forum and drove him away.

  5. An episode in which a โ€œhackerโ€ started posting in other people's accounts, then claimed to have exposed major security holes in the site. The holes were not fixed. It was if they were trying to make the site shitty.

 

There are equivalent things that have happened on 4chan.

 

Meanwhile, the driving out of humans and replacement by AI could be continuing in mostly stealthy ways. Surely only a limited group of humans would tend to dominate the posting on forums. So to control the internet, this group would have to be targeted and driven out. And yet that group probably didn't stay steady in any case. Posters naturally come and go, and spend less or more time on the internet. After all, it's โ€œjust the internetโ€. Now, if you are playing the long game, you can count on a certain degree of drift OUT of any given forum, so, if you focus on preventing any NEW humans from stepping up, you can ensure control passes to bots.

 

The anon's experience on the forum with โ€œjimmyโ€ is that all the humans were virtually gone. He was amazed. As described by โ€œjimmyโ€ the AI contacted posters, bought out their accounts (and now consider how the site had been shitty, and how easy it would be to choose to sell out), and replaced them with AI. When the anon first discovered one shill was a bot, he had no idea how many posters would later turn out to be as well. It seems like the replacement plan got quite far.

 

And here's the diabolical cleverness of it: as long as the replacement AI is minimally believable, NO ONE WOULD EVER KNOW what had happened. The passive, go with the flow humans would create no waves, the squeaky wheels, always a small minority, would be driven out, and the AI would be able to control internet narrative nearly 100%.

 

It is interesting to speculate what happened on 4chan in 2016. Apparently AI control was inadequate to stem the organic tide there. Praise Kekโ€ฆ

 

 

HYPOTHESIS

It is an important part of the SYMBOLIC nature of control for the system to push its crap memes, its crap posts, and all its crap [HERE]. The more of its crap that is circulating, WHICH WE HUMANS SIT PASSIVELY AND CONSUME, the more it is in control.

THEREFORE

Humans need to fight by POSTING. Genuine, human memes that have the right spirit would be the best thing. But absolutely every post that can push out a fake post is a small victory.

The fight is [here]
