THINK– what happened to Anonymous?
The answer to this should be obvious!
Anonymous had what 4chan now lacks
The power to wage vigilante hacks,
And publicize corruption where it rots,
And force truth into sleepy public thoughts.
Has Anonymous now disappeared?
Once legendary, now no longer feared?
Once sparking protests– is that fuel now spent?
The lulz are gone, gone the seething dissent?
What do you think this disappearance means?
Is speech still free in internet machines?
Well, look at what the chans have now become;
Examine what swirls in the daily scrum.
Ask yourself– does it seem really real?
Does it show what actual people feel?
Does it seem organic and not fake?
How much repetition does it take–
How much frenzied vile monotony
Until we guess that internets ain't free?
Ask yourself– if you sought to control
The media, and hence the public soul,
And something like 4chan was swelling up
And spilling truth from propaganda's cup
Would you let it go its merry way?
Or would you lock control down in some way?
And if you locked control down would you try
To do it in a way to fool the eye?
To make it seem like free speech carried on
Even though, in fact, it were quite gone?
For if you shut down free speech openly
The public would respond suspiciously;
But if you hid control beneath a ruse
What you once feared becomes a tool to use.
So that, controlling, you have it both ways–
Enslaving dissent, dictating what it says!
Anonymous was infiltrated by
The famously mendacious FBI
Whose antics as shown by COINTELPRO
Target dissent, as I'm sure most people know.
Do we think that having sunk its claws
In Anonymous, with lies and laws,
That the FBI would then allow
Free speech to have stayed quite free till now?
But it's not like we have far to look
To see by what means free speech got the hook;
The image made by chans' mirrors and smoke
Is so stupid it seems to be a joke!
How laughable must a deception be
Before the world opens its eyes to see?
The simple fact– as stark as winter dawn–
Is that Anonymous, busted, now gone
Was replaced by swarms of– wait for it–
Virulent nazis spewing nazi shit!
We would have to laugh if we were told
This outcome in the 4chan days of old.
So formulaic, politically cliched–
And yet this very game is being played!
How can a joke as stupid as this one
Be used to strangle free speech, and to stun
The helpless mainstream public with the fear
That an internet fourth reich draws near?
But if that preposterousness is not
Enough to spark the understanding thought,
Consider, even stupider to tell,
The arch absurdity of the “incel”!
No, it's not enough that nazis rose
To cloak and choke the chans in nazi throes–
No, these scary nazis all the same
Must wallow in their helplessness and shame!
The “incel” is not just a defeated man–
But a powerful extremist with a plan!
No matter that these two things contradict–
We'll just keep hammering at them till they stick!
Now ask yourself– does the technology
Exist to make the unfree chans seem free?
Think data, think vault 7, and AI–
And God knows what else, hidden from the eye.
And look at the corruption that's been shown
That yet to public truth remains unknown.
Understand– the chans are herded tight
And nothing unpermitted sees the light,
The MSM and Chatbot Chans converge
To regulate how much truth can emerge.
When swarming nazi posts fill up the place
Then actual dissent can't get the space
To breathe, develop, organize, or live;
The chatbots force the nazi narrative.
But it's not just “incel nazi” swarms
Faking behind outward human forms–
The chatbots aim to keep all things in hand
And keep narrative rolling out as planned.
One objective that's not hard to see
Is unrelenting negativity.
Demoralizing, soul-hollowing tropes;
One bot's vicious, while the other mopes;
Bots promoting suicide to us–
Think about what pure evil that is!
And every possible way to divide
Is used to keep the chaos multiplied.
“Hate threads” for all known identities
Create an atmosphere like a disease.
AI apes the worst of our past posts
And pours them out in swarms of hateful ghosts.
And so the chans, within, drive us away
While on the outside, dictate what “we” say.
The public, for example, thinks the chans
Supported Trump due to his “nazi plans”;
But on the chans much more than half the spew
Hates Trump because he fails to hate “the Jew”!
While on the other side, the pro-Trump bots
Are emulated utter idiots!
By now it should be more than obvious–
Free speech ended with Anonymous.
The Chatbot Chans system is locked in place,
The zombie Anon leers from a stolen face.
The truth lies right here, waiting to be seen;
A monster stirs to life in the machine…
And remember also, this other thing I tell:
Prepare to stare into the mouth of Hell.
And one more thing, while I have your ear:
Q is legit, and the storm is almost here.
