I think koolaid got really mad and tried to make it clear that it was flavor aid, a true lack of taste and nuance

Yes as a service. So that their customers wouldn't have to disable the antivirus to run mining software.

I'm starting to go completely off the deep end. I have been watching videos by a guy called plagued moth who does investigative pieces on gore videos from the dark corners of the internet. The first crack ping was him mentioning about the suicides of NYPD police adjacent to the Weiner investigation and that there was a chance that the frazzledrip video was real but wasn't a satanic orgy conducted by Hillary Clinton, just some Epstein level fuckery.

He's now doing a dive on World industries because a video everyone thought was a creepypasta referred to as after-school special is real, is connected to another what was assumed to be creepypasta called world industries, and the people who have seen it are reasonably confident one of the people in the video is John Podesta.

Are any of the octopus or le cerq investigators collaborating with the lost media and deep web explorers because just recently some strange connections have started being found by chance and I'm wondering if there is a dam about to break.

Lol I watched some of this video and I stoped the exact second he cited the 4chan post in the "lets create fake lost media" thread as proof that it existed, he connected a literal 4chan troll with some vaporwave marketing poo poo and thinks he's found the cabal, loving retard

Lmao so he grew up on an army base, developed the first antivirus software while paranoid as poo poo due to excessive LSD abuse, and made millions selling said software to Fortune 500 companies all over the USA? Dude was an op for sure

*edit* he was also severely abused by his father while living on the army base. His father ended up committing suicide

That is not the exclusive use of synchronicity in Jungian theory. Also Jung was definitely wrong about it being a cause of symptoms - it's a feature (pattern recognition and meaning-significance-attachment) of psychosis writ large.

I mean the whole point of the video is that he conflated in his memory a vid he saw that's real with a half remembered post from 4chan that is a hoax. The music video includes actual child abuse video snippets, one of which is from that real vid and the full length version seems to have Podesta in it.

The interest for me is a lot less in this actual video than if those communities are communicating with the true anon crowd because there is probably a lot to be gained.
