What the fuck happened here?

Ever since the debates ended, I've seen nothing but shitty bait threads, blatant shilling, /b/ tier shitposting and only a few threads with actual civil discussion.

I feel like we're being raided.

It's pretty clear that our mods aren't doing enough to clean this shit up, but I think Hiro's consensus threads on /qa/ were a step in the right direction. But until new rules are made, we need to find a way to get rid of this low quality content.

I love this board. I've been lurking here since the great SJW shitstorms of 2014 and I've come to appreciate /pol/ as a bastion of free speech in an era that needs it the most.

So, /pol/acks. Today I ask you not what your board can do for you, but what we can do for our board.

Recap:
Apparently I heard Shillery raided this board after the debates. They admitted to doing a day after. But huffinton post picked up hillery shills and pasted blatent lies in the Huff Post. it said something about the alt-right and pepe hating trump now.
CTR is all over this board. One post said that the moderators got bribed 40-60 bucks a week to look the other way for shills.

Also google 4chan's twitter.

There is also some shit going down at the senate where the net is supposed to be given over to the globalists.

Good question, I tried
Filling threads with junk posts = banned
Complain about of topic threads = banned
Overusing filter to block most threads = boring
Making threads that were relevant = slid of the board
Making better content = banned. Off topic

I'm back to filtering and hiding threads because 3 day bans are no fun.

I've never really gotten the sudden hatred of GG this site has nowadays. Yes, it's irrelevant now, and yes its base is primarily Reddit.

But you're forgetting that it was a huge wake-up call for a lot of people on the left's insanity and it was arguably the first successful rebellion against SJWs.

We are, don't doubt that for a second.

But this is different than your SRS/Reddit raids or Gamergate exodus. I've been noticing some patterns that suggest WAY more sophistication than just angry cat-ladies trying to shitpost our Siberian hair-weaving annex.

Been collecting screenshots for a couple days now. Trying to see if I can put something together that doesn't come off alex jones-tier, but we'll see.

CTR is real and we're no strangers to internet censorship or attempts to SHUT IT DOWN. Most likely it's AstroTurfing that's started to grab hold of the influx of newfags. All I can say right now is be wary of people saying things like

>"Hey /pol/ let's turn X into the new pepe!"
>"pepe's dead, Y is the new nazi meme!"
>"Can this be a meme guys? COME ON GOGOGO"
>"Let's turn Z into a nazi symbol and send it to the ADL! It's for teh lulz!"

Mods have been pruning these types of threads but I see one or two pop up and get a hundred or so posts occasionally. There was a johnny bravo one up a few hours ago.

A poster from spain and switzerland are in these threads a lot so just another thing to look out for.

Keep in mind too that we've been all over the news lately so you have your usual reddit/newfags but you also have people from other boards hoping on the shitposting train as "revenge". Keep in mind /pol/ is a boogeyman on boards like /co/ and /v/ that are basically reddit colonies at this point.
>>

>>90927529

It's been tier shitposting since /pol/ harbor last year.

Also it's been bait threads since Trump became the clear frontrunner in the primaries. Only after he won the primaries did CTR go full mental on this place

In short. Where the fuck you been?

It's not about memes or 4chan, it's about targeting us. Sure you can censor or shut down a website, but that just means anons will find a different board site. There's no shortage of chan clones already.

It's the removal of anonymity that you should be wary of.

>"Look at all these disgusting trolls and their nazi pictures!"
>"See look at how they want to turn everything into hate!"
>"I bet they wouldn't be so smug if we knew their identity"
>"Welcome to 4chan, please sign in with your gmail/phone # and remember to post safely!"

Obviously that's not how it's going to play out but you can see where i'm going.

Reddit is different.

-First off they already require creating an account to post. Sure you can make throw aways but more and more you see requirements of phone #'s, links to facebook or other forms of ID to even make email accounts. That's assuming the person even bothers to go through that.

-There is a record of your post history, where you went, what you looked at. All available at request from site owners, which has been done before.

-Shadowbanning

So on and so forth. Basically there is already a large degree of moderation/control reddit users are susceptible to. That doesn't mean they aren't being target too, all forms of social media are. But the degree of true anonymity 4chan has (relatively speaking) is what makes it a less subtle target.

More sites are requiring gmail, especially as Google continue to grow into more of a bloated behemoth than it already is.

Again if it's not that then it's facebook or your phone #.

Even having Windows 10 is a huge invasion of privacy and will only become increasingly so as more companies integrate all forms of online media and entertainment in the name of "convenience". It's not up to us to say "Lol install Gentoo fagget", it's about making people get more and more aware that the Nanny state is not a meme. It's fucking terrifying how ignorant people STILL are on how easy it is to find out who you are and every dirty thing you've said or done.
