Articles & Happening Meta Discussion

Articles & Happenings is the third attempt at a news board on the Kiwi Farms. It is a cursed place. Every moderator who has been assigned here has resigned within a year. During 2016, the political crossfire was so bad it spread to different boards and culminated in me banning American news discussion entirely for several months. It has been deleted in its entirety twice. There is no actual discussion here, it's people posting garbage. It leans much further right than the rest of the site and doesn't particularly conduct discussion because dissenting opinions are dogpiled by a thousand memelords posting shit they read on /pol/ without any critical analysis.

The only rules that can be enforced are empirical ones with boolean violation answers. New threads must cite a real source directly and must use the headline of the article as a thread title without any editorializing. Articles must be archived in some way and must link to the original article. Replies that are one word or a reaction images are automatic one-month bans from the board.

I'm creating this now because it seems like this place is here to stay and is one of the largest areas of the entire site. I might as well throw in bare minimum effort to improve it. I don't even try to find mods for here because they will quit, without exception. I've added new prefixes ("Business" and "Crime") just now.

Discuss.


New threads should be made like this.

Forum sliding has always been the most retarded conspiracy theory this side of the Mandela Effect. Newbies or light users who don't lurk and don't get the culture necroing threads they were binging isn't a targeted conspiracy to drive whatever outrage bait got posted here out of view.

Ask whoever's behind this weekend's fed accounts. Either Langley is hiring anyone who can fog a mirror these days, or glowposting is the new trolling game after commie/catboy posting started getting ignored by the locals.

What if it's a sickening fusion of the 3? Catboi commie glowies? I know I said Langley as a metronym but I think Quantico is the headquarters of the FBI. Deffo think it would be harder to sway popular opinion on a forum like this as it takes time to get kudos from a trusted account whereas 4chan allows a baseline of anonymity and fast-paced slide threads to knock unwanted threads off the catalogue.
 
I'll bite: what the hell is catboy posting?

I am sure I will be very sorry for asking.
 
I'm posting from my thing, the question marks aren't meant to be there. Is cuck posting like literal or a right thing? I'm aware of the cuck meme just not cuck postimg

Langley is cia
Fbiis quantuco(at least that sounds familiar from silence of the lambs / Hannibal)

You are so close dude, if you can get just a little more autistic and incoherent no one will ever guess you're new.

@It's HK-47 could we get a library thread I guess of important articles to read.

Some idea I got from r/stupidpol when I used to frequent that sub. They had a sidebar with important leftists links or readings I guess.

I don't really know how that would make sense for the format of the board. I guess you could do a stickied thread at the very top full of links that are "required reading" but that's incredibly subjective and I wouldn't really understand the point. Everyone's pretty much bunkered into their politics at this stage and a literal wall of text isn't going to change anyone's mind.

The thing that's "converting" people away from the Democratic party right now is the Democratic party itself, not a thesis on why the Democrats are bad. Something like that would be more appropriate for Deep Thoughts, if anything.
