(Anonymous) 2025-02-24 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)Re: Psyops - a heads up.
Put yourself in my shoes, would you honestly buy into any pitch like that?
Or would it read as cultlike?
I mean, thats assuming what you really want is for me to see the light, is that what you want? To change my mind and bring me into the fold?
Or are you content to simply have a heathen to insult and call blind and laugh at? Because thats another thing cults need. The dangerous knowlessmen. The outsider seeking to destroy you.
Either way, the onus is on you to figure out what you're hoping to get from me and to act accordingly

Re: Psyops - a heads up.
Just to ease you into it.
See, your propaganda and psyops are no more proof to me than some deranged 4chan schizo post would be for you. I weigh it, I consider it, I look at the source and the context, but if I find myself unconvinced, what can I do? You think personally fielding 300 "Its the truth you evil privileged idiot I hope you die shitting!" Comments will change my mind? This isnt highschool, peer pressure and insults are overrated. I'll note it, but it doesnt benefit either of us for me to respond to everyone.

(Anonymous) 2025-02-24 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)You are the one in the cult. And like every good cult, you will only dumbly follow your leader while he gets richer and and richer and you get poorer but that's okay because he's your leader. Objective facts don't mean anything to you because that's the devil's talk and the leader said it's wrong so it has to be.
I don't care if you "see the light" or get out of your cult - I have enough experience talking with extremists in my own country to know this is an exercise in futility. You will either die with the cult or get a really rude awakening once it crashes and burns around you.
Re: Psyops - a heads up.
Why comment to me if it doesnt matter if I leave the cult or not?
Is it because having the argument is important to you? Makes you feel like a good person? A hero to the noble cause to be seen putting a nazi in his place on fandomsecrets? So everyone knows YOU believe the TRUE things that are self evidently true? Maybe I'm off he mark, you want nothing from me, but you want something from this argument, what is it?

Well
1. I kinda dig the timecapsule, It's not totally unfun ALL the time, and its good for the soul to occasionally interact with people who hate you and relish in showing it. Not too often. And in the theme of challenging the propaganda you've absorbed you simply CANT do that in echo chamber, so its good for me, and maybe in a small way good for you too.
2. This place isn't quite as homogenous as it appears. To keep the 2003 theme going "The lurkers support me in email".
3. Theres always the slight possibility it'd help someone. There is a very public perception on this community that is... Well, frankly it can be a little brainwashy, in a "If you openly disagree with the majority we will fucking struggle-session you!" People might genuinely benefit from a little challenge.
All of that makes up about 7% of your answer. The biggie, the 93% was in the first commemt: I really genuinely sincerely wanted to know. There is literally no other community on the internet as dogmatic as fandom secrets (excluding specific fandom spaces, and I am not joining the Rick and Morty or Steven Universe ppl.) and I honestly wanted to know how people who spend their time in such a dogmatic place felt about the awareness that EVERYONE wants to use the internet to control the public to their own side deals with that little cognitive dissonance. As I say, I go with cinical grade paranoia and doubting everything, bit that wont fly alongside dogma.
It really seems like the answer is overwhelmingly "Denial, No U, and hostility". Although I grant that the hostility may be more of a me thing.

I am making no demands for what you must believe, I am inviting you to consider how quickly you accept absurd bulshit (lets take an easy one, show of hands who here still thinks the piss tapes are real?) And asking how you rationalise your sure and certain knowledge that every institution can be corrupted with money, and that there are people with money and political pull in every quadrant of the compass, with your iron fast belief that your side is exempt from manipulation?
Believe "my sides" propaganda or dont, Thats of no interest to me.
