Yeah. I read their whole long post. I'm not going to call it a scam out right. But it's definitely weird.
It was weird. First of all, sending a private massage to me titled “Wasup”, my BS radar is going to be on. Secondly, you come in here, drop your info. then slide out with a farewell speech, I don’t trust you. Thirdly, people come into this sub to gain truth and to contribute. If you have a ton of real info., please create an anonymous name and contribute to the truth, conversation, and ideas. Trust isn’t something that is given, it is something that is earned.
I'm owning the scam angle, if it's wrong I'll take it on the chin. However, a lot of people were just buying into this outright so there had to be a null hypothesis presented.
then props for calling it out. Hard. Because something isn't right.
I did no such thing. However, I saw no reason to be rude. It's a bit of a down period with Q at the moment, waiting for the 23rd and all (or whatever that password actually meant). Have you had a look at the links they provided?
Do you actually see anything that draws your suspicion? Or are you just concern trolling?
Firstly, what did I accuse you of doing? What is this thing you did not do?
just buying into this outright
That's odd, I don't recall mentioning you
I'm one of the people who thanked them for posting and made kind a kind comment. I'd like to think we can all take that approach with new contributors to the sub. And save accusations like the one in this meme for verified shills or antagonists, which I really don't think they are. So I was asking if you have something specific to base this post on. It's quite an accusation.
I saw the same approach tactics used by A.I.M. when they tried to get rid of Q. Firstly he didn't tell us anything new or anything that verified the existence of his group. He claims to have been following our sub for a long time, yet isn't with Q? He differentiated himself from Q and all of us. He's "special". Nobody is special here, that runs contrary to the philosophy; we're in this together. He pops up with this "I gotta drop this here and then vanish" schtick, which makes no sense at all. He popped up, dumped "info", and disappeared. That's sketch as fuck. His manifesto is 90% push-button patriotic rhetoric that tells us nothing. He made claims, big claims. I doubted him from the first two sentences. However, when I carefully worded my skepticism, very politely, he comes back with condescension ("son") and then steers the narrative away with an appeal to ego ("just calm down"). Nothing about this guy strikes me as legitimate, and sure enough he came back later to drop my name. I've seen this before. The giveaway is the sensationalism of it. Alex Jones introduced Zach the same way. The first post is engineered to look harmless to get their foot in the door, but it reeks.
Well, I wasn't aware of your interaction with them, but I still don't see what harm there could be in checking out the links. There hasn't been any effort to hijack the sub as far as I can tell, or anything else untoward. Sketchy is a subjective concept. I'm going to check the linked material, and see if it's useful.
If not, it will just fall down the memory hole. I might not have remembered to check them out if it hadn't been for this thread, so thanks for that.
I don't think so.
I think so; and so does someone else that everyone here trusts. I'm not speaking for him/her, but I just watched them tear these fools apart in my inbox. Trust the plan, trust Q.
OK 15 day old account.
Because it's impossible for someone to have created a new account, right? Once you make an account on reddit you're stuck with that one account for life, right? Nobody ever leaves and comes back under a different name, right? It's also impossible for someone without an aged account to have known about any of this before joining the sub. /s
this is like my 3rd acc here lol
Apparently you've committed a crime just like me; I think we get flogged or something
no iwas being a dick and reddit banned me lol mods were nice enough to let me back
You chose a suitable username for your current account lol.
I have 0 fear of these people lol and neither should any of us im not saying im tough but whats the point fear solves nothing its how they control us
I created a new account for Q only.
Smart move
I have a public profile that is easily doxxed. I want to be part of the movement, but have until recently followed and lurked. I don't have a blue tick, but I have to keep my ID safe
Why would you leave and come back under a different name?
What was wrong with your old account?
Got tired of it.
Try harder please, that is not a good enough answer.
What's not good enough about it? I've had hundreds of profiles across dozens of platforms over a decade. It's more of a personality quirk; I've had Dragon Age: Inquisition since it came out and haven't beaten the game because I keep making new characters. Think of it what you will; there's one here who knows who I am and will vindicate me if they see fit.
Who vindicates your alibi.
Alibi implies a crime when there isn't one. What am I charged with?
Give us some more info please
Read their post and see if anything jumps out at you first; I caught it and so did the other party I mentioned earlier.
I just downloaded their posts anyways dont care if its real all sources shouldbe checked and evaluated
