COINTELPRO Techniques for dilution, misdirection and control of a internet forum
Technique #3 - 'TOPIC DILUTION'
Topic dilution is not only effective in forum sliding it is also very useful in keeping the forum readers on unrelated and non-productive issues. This is a critical and useful technique to cause a 'RESOURCE BURN.' By implementing continual and non-related postings that distract and disrupt (trolling ) the forum readers they are more effectively stopped from anything of any real productivity. If the intensity of gradual dilution is intense enough, the readers will effectively stop researching and simply slip into a 'gossip mode.' In this state they can be more easily misdirected away from facts towards uninformed conjecture and opinion. The less informed they are the more effective and easy it becomes to control the entire group in the direction that you would desire the group to go in. It must be stressed that a proper assessment of the psychological capabilities and levels of education is first determined of the group to determine at what level to 'drive in the wedge.' By being too far off topic too quickly it may trigger censorship by a forum moderator.
I'm sure you've noticed
This, fren! Have a bump!
How are you holding up bro? Half the threads around here have
Absolutely based and saved. Sad thing is ones who are effected from shill brainwashing won't even recognize that they are effected even if they read this.
Should be memetized tho.
Checked.
Have one for the digits.
Yes newfriend here they're called slide threads
Check those digits
Fine so far, thx! Keeping a bit out of the Schusslinie while harassing glowies of opportunity. They really don't send the brightest bunch, those doubleniggers. ;)
FPBP. Thanks, user. Saved the graphic for future use.
Where do you find those glowniggers? I personally stay out of (pretty much) every thread, due to them being absolute shite. I might just spam mongolian throat singing for shits and giggles, who knows
>If we didn't stand a chance (((they)))) wouldn't be doing this.
Exactly.
>mongolian throat singing
Patrician taste, fren! They tend to pop up in the few "reasonable" threads that are up right now ... trying to either inject their narrative or divide et impera. Often chink shills, sometimes your typical Dem if the topic is somehow burger-related. Also some of the "usual suspects" you sometimes see in Kraut/pol/ ... annoying flies mostly. You notice them, their writing style seems artificial and they try too hard to steer a conversation.
Isn't introducing the possibility that a forum is being intentionally targeted by propagandists and shills an effective way to induce paranoia and doubt among legitimate members as well?
>enabling schizos who think this site is full of paid bots, schizos, Jews, etc
kys
keep your voice down or else they’ll call you a shill
Checked
I'll make sure to check them out, if anything, i'll take the piss out of them
Anons know who the shills are, for example . He's trying to gaslight anons, to no avail
Fuckers give up easily if met with resistance. Likely a do-not-engage policy so they don't look like idiots if someone smarter than them picks them apart. Tend to trigger a forum slide if things get too hot, at least I noticed threads were they have been "beaten" to suddenly sink into oblivion.
Look at the state of catalog. At this point does it matter? I mean having a paranoia doesn't really mean that threat is not real.
Oh you're wrong, this is a disinformation technique. To quote from "Twenty-Five Rules of Disinformation":
6. Hit and Run. In any public forum, make a brief attack of your opponent or the
opponent position and then scamper off before an answer can be fielded, or simply
ignore any answer. This works extremely well in Internet and letters-to-the-editor
environments where a steady stream of new identities can be called upon without
having to explain criticism, reasoning – simply make an accusation or other attack,
never discussing issues, and never answering any subsequent response, for that would
dignify the opponent's viewpoint.
Eh, by now it is a full panic reaction that we are witnessing. Narratives are coming apart too fast.
I agree. Yas Forums has broke the spell, and we were in a planning/investigative phase until the "/leftypol/" raid
Then the fuckers are definitely sloppy ... those I encounter actually try to argue with you for a while, yet very poorly. Seen them succeed against "softer targets" though ... they likely expect to primarily encounter normies. Seen hit&run too though ... tend to softly "poke" those to see if they engage.
26. Regardless of the thread topic point out Joe surprise finger blasting members of his staff.
Every successful psyops has one weak spot: overexposure. Newfags aside, we've seen too much of this shit on constant low boil in the last years. Many might not be fully aware of it but they are getting "immune" to the bullshit tactics. Similar to the gradual drop in efficiency of their media monopoly.
Yup, noticed, people keep taking the bait though.
This is definitely a distraction, but for what reason? What i noticed (outside Yas Forums):
1. pastebin's search function is gone
2. /rpg/'s pastebin is gone
3. /rpg/ is gone from 4plebs as well
4. The Trump bleach distraction is ineffective
5. Media disinfo is ineffective
>we've seen too much of this shit on constant low boil in the last years. Many might not be fully aware of it but they are getting "immune" to the bullshit tactics
No kidding, i've become immune to agitprop, and much more
Ah, they are scrubbing (or blocking) pastebin?! Not suspicious at all! :D
The bleach story is quite a disaster I'd say ... forced as hell and ineffective. Distraction nevertheless, so in those regards it still worked I guess. What definitely fails is the pro-China, pro-WHO stories ... here and in the forums of the media. Gates shilling is backfiring too, even with those who think that Trump is a complete moron. Funny to watch. In the end they just speed up the clownworld idea even in the complete normies. That is not ... uhm ... healthy for an elite if a severe global recession is just around the corner. ;)
Kek! :D
Wasn't COINTELPRO mostly meant to puppet both sides into conflict?
>pic related
I wonder how we can fight back. Maybe gathering anons in generals. With highly 'general'-ized content, there's no need to engage with them, and distractions are useless.
You should visit nbg for some live specimens. Didnt even know these techniques are well l documented. I just figured them out myself, neat
wtf is going on here
Currently I see no better option than just staying with "business as usual" ... shitting into a bottomless pit of excrement achieves exactly nothing. ;)
