At this point I will give you a hint of the strategy I would like to share with you, because without asking for it, a bit of its success just came across my transom. As I type this, I am doing my (tedious) ComicsGate homework, by listening to one of the streams that some gaters are conducting right now on YT. And wouldn't you know it: they just dropped my name, and referenced the trouble Vox Day has been creating for ComicsGate lately, and the role I played in fomenting it. Getting THEM to feel threatened by YOU is where you want to be.

But one thing I have noticed about CG is that they appear to be having more fun, while their opponents, frustrated as they are but not knowing how to organize effectively against them, are angrier. Flipping the script on that dynamic is entirely possible. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

1 - If you post like Death Note with his nonsense you’re done in this thread. 2 - If your response to something in this thread doesn’t have something of substance in it you’re done. This includes ‘gently caress off’ or any variations of. If that’s all you have to add or think a post warrants then don’t post/ if you think the post is that bad that it warrants that reaction then report it and move on.

Death Ray posted:Getting THEM to feel threatened by YOU is where you want to be. Being outwardly, vocally rude and negative towards Comicsgate type poo poo going back over a decade online (including a large thread about what trash Mike S. Miller is when he sent me a PR e-mail about his Kickstarter) was largely ignored by the targets of my ire. When I asked Lee Weeks why he follows a Glastonbury Festival worth of alt-right ghouls (Drudge, Krauthammer, Dana Loesch, Trey Gowdy, Tucker Carlson, Jordan Peterson, Michael Ramirez, D&C, Jonah Goldberg, etc.) that got the attention of EVS and others who launched a coordinated attack on me for "attacking a private man with a family" and "trying to ruin people's lives" up to and including informing my employers that I stalk and harass people online ultimately leading EVS to spend over an hour warning me through DMs that all of my favorite artists are MAGA and that a Red Wave will crush me and all that I love. It still didn't change anything (my employers were unconcerned by the evidence, no one changed their minds). I guess I got one anonymous Comicsgater to stop following an explicit white supremacist Identity EVROPA style account they claimed to accidentally follow back. That was the big takeaway of those two days of my life. 420 Gank Mid posted:lmao havin' a normal one today Edge & Christian?

This seems like as good a moment as any to go back to an earlier point of mine and say that comparing moderation of online communities to Big Brother is real fuckin stupid. All online communities require effective moderation or else they inevitably begin to turn to poo poo, it's not like this is something that's only just been discovered, it's played out time and time again. If a community doesn't take the bare minimum of effort to chuck out the truly awful people then what happens is a feedback loop where more and more awful people begin to congregate there and decent people decide they don't want to deal with it anymore and check out, opening it up for even more awful people to use it as a platform. It's not eagerly lining up to gag on the cock of totalitarian hypercapitalism to suggest that maybe it would be nice if Twitter was more proactive about doing things like banning white supremacists, harassment movements, and other associated sorts of people instead of deciding that it's vitally important that they get to have an unrestrained voice in the Marketplace of Ideas™. Obviously the people in charge don't care about that unless it begins to impact their bottom line so I certainly don't think that Jack Twitter is going to be talked around into being a champion for truth, justice, and not calling Gail Simone a oval office, but in the abstract the thing which seems to hurt chuds more than any amount of rhetorical jiu-jitsu is being cut off from funding, soapboxes, advertisers, demographic relevance, and so forth.

Yeah, free speech absolutism online only ever leads to the platform being taken over by nazi gamers. It was irresponsible when AOL tried to hide behind it over the child pornography chatrooms in the late 90s and it's irresponsible now. The fact that silicon valley idiots who genuinely believe in the marketplace of ideas are in charge of the social media platforms everyone uses is a big reason why we've currently got a nazi problem.

Unfortunately, forcing others to engage bad faith actors "reasonably" or else just let them spew their crap in silence under threat of punishment (a policy that overwhelmingly discriminates against the not-bad faith people) to maintain a nebulous sense of decorum is not effective moderation (Not directly responding to your post, but on the subject of effective moderation) site fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Oct 13, 2018 |

I said not to engage someone who is purposely making GBS threads up the thread. This thread is not for you to engage in twitter like slap fights. If you have a problem with that then maybe don’t read the thread. And maybe realize that not everyone is on the forum all day. I have a job, a family, and a life beyond this forum. If someone is making GBS threads up the thread report it and wait. Don’t engage. And if that’s too hard for you to do too bad.

Death Ray isn't a nazi, but he is a smug, slimy prick and it's fine telling him to gently caress off when he brings nothing to the table but smarmy condescension and a promise to totally nuke the alt-right when he's finished creating his spirit bomb. I don't mind him coming back to this thread if he can manage to post without disappearing up his own rear end and chiding minority posters for being unwilling to engage with real nazis, but that's pretty unrealistic at this point.
