Redneck nazgul explained why the PPJ operation was hilariously inept and I didn’t see it quoted in any of the funny threads so I’m linking it.

I’m not quoting it here because it’s long, not funny, and it’s in a locked thread so I’d have to reformat it.

e: Small correction: making the first bullet point of things wrong with the operation “1. We used a goon.” is a little funny.

Probably Magic posted:

A few months ago I told C-SPAM I was not alt-right. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and the evidence tell me it is not. As the Tower board reported, what began as a strategic opening to alt-right discord deteriorated, in its implementation, into me posting Nazi poo poo. This runs counter to my own beliefs, to administration policy, and to the original strategy we had in mind.

I can barely tell what’s going on also but from some of the threads quoted above:
1. There’s an off-site discord full of Nazi goons that are harassing non-Nazi goons.
2. The mods/admins tactically infiltrated the discord by sending moderator PPJ, artfully disguised under the assumed name “PPJ” to gain the trust of the Nazis by posting nazi memes and permabanning leftist C-spam posters.
3. C-Spam posters said “what the gently caress”
4. The whole operation is revealed.
5. The covert ops team is furious that their deep cover source got burned.

Summary: We must be careful what we pretend to be, because we are what we pretend to be.

Turns out the mod that everyone on the mod staff was going to bat for was posting in a Nazi discord, they knew who he was, he was making jokes to "fit in", and he was there to "help protect goons from harassment from the inside" by reporting some of it back to the intended targets of the harassment

nobody yet knows how many mods knew but uh, "mods knew" is an actively true statement this time

This is the callout thread. Screenshots in the OP.

PPJ posted some of his own as he goes out in a blaze.

There are more hiding in the currently open threads in C-SPAM and GBS.

Note that there are two very different threads with the same title of “Hello, posters of cspam.”

Has actually been theorised that this ridiculous scheme explains a lot, including why there haven't been many new mods in a while- they wouldn't mod anyone who might blow the whistle.

The funny thing is, this technically qualifies as a goon project.

Hey Jones. We knew who you were when you joined, we just posted with you in good faith because that's how we do.

Here's your discord ID posts over time friend. Since you joined our discord you posted way more frequently here than in any of your own discords, or on SA. I'm sure all of it it was just because you were pulling one over on us CHUDS, but in that time you had a lot to say.


It probably would surprise you that some of your fellow WTT posters were gay/trans (and nobody cares its just posting dude), but the funniest thing is when people started accusing us of deleting your posts, when you were the one deleting them, and full backups of the things you tried to erase remain online.

Anyone who makes off jokes is a literal Nazi, anyone who says the Bad Words is a nazi is hitler etc so throw me under the bus already to satisfy people who have, in the immortal words of Infrateal, "clearcut their own junk, reduced to prowling public showerdrains for clotted pube whorls, a shaker of sea salt in one hand and chopsticks in the other."

1. There’s a chat room on the Internet where people post pro-Hitler thoughts.
2. They also say mean things about Somethingawful posters and plan to harass them.
3. The somethingawful moderator team sent a moderator to this chat room to gain information from the chat. This was done to prevent Somethingawful posters from being harassed and to identify the chat room regulars and ban them from Somethingawful.
4. This moderator entered the chat room using the same screen name as his Somethingawful name and started posting Pro Hitler stuff to fit in.
5. Something awful posters accuse the moderator of being Pro Hitler.
6. The entire scheme is revealed by the moderator team to prove that he is in fact only pretending to be Pro Hitler
