META is their Achilles heel

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

In order to sow discord I believe our best efforts will be set at undermining their confidence in their ability to govern their own "society."

The mod system didn't work for them on DU2 because too many complain it was an "old boys network" ...especially the feminists.

On DU3 they have juries and MIRT but META is where they go air their grievances and boy do they have grievances! Most of them center on juries and MIRT either being too heavy-handed or no heavy enough. Case in point: the gay mafia and the feminists are showing just how impossible it is to satisfy their demands and still have a functioning society. The more they try to control what words and phrases are acceptable to be considered a part of polite company the more coarse and acrimonious their debates become.

The best means for disrupting them is to encourage them to be them. They go to META not to discuss issues but to bitch about how issues are discussed. If they cannot effectively discuss any topic then nothing in their agenda advances.

Develop your moles. Wait until the account has reached the golden 1000+ posts and then become a META regular. Don't fight against liberal orthodoxy - ENFORCE IT. Make them live by ever absurd, mewling, petty and over-bearing rule they wish to impose upon their betters.

And smile while you're at it.

I hang out in META often and follow your rules, except I slipped up recently... but I am working my way back to being a good little DU follower.

What's MIRT stand for?

Well, those of you with moles will have to keep me up to speed. I can't do moles, the stupidity would so infuriate me, I'd be booted before I even got to double digits.

Good idea, I've been working this angle for a while now as well. Find something that the FEMINazis and Lavender Mafia can work with, something that will get under their wretched pathetic liberal skins. The best way to engage is to call people out in a "let's you and him fight" kind of way. Calling people out for using the wrong pronouns, the best one in recent times is calling people out for using the phrase "butt hurt", that's usually good for taking a thread sideways for a good 40 to 50 posts.

There is now a thread in Meta about your OP here.  None of the responses are all that interesting, just the regular moaning about anyone/everyone who isn't them, marching down the road in lockstep.  Meta thread here ->

Some interesting responses - they are beginning to eat one of their own for his/her audacity

And vote to LEAVE IT on juries.  Many times you have to do it without explanation, but that's OK.

Currently the DU program is set up to seat jurors if you are going from forum to forum.  I can't find the quote from the admins right now, but I read on the site that at one time the juries were randomly selected as members were moving from thread to thread.  The primitives complained they were being called to jury just as they started reading a new thread, so Skin's set up up where they now get called to duty when they move from forum to forum, what he called being interupted as your on your way to find something to read.  So if you bounce from forum to forum, you'll get more juries.

Not always! It's hilarious when a nadin post or a Pedro post gets hidden. Just don't vote against them every single time.

Skimmer, and probably the liquidation squad, can see your voting history.

Skimmer could rarely give a damn, but for the liquidation squad, it's their life.

I expect people here to use their noggin about it.  Point is try to leave as many as possible.  The reason the person alerted is because they want it removed (with a few exceptions of people trying to immunize their own posts or the posts of a comrade they like, which is a different topic.).

What trips me out is how smart they think they are, yet they still haven't learned the difference between "troll" and "mole."

Oh dear.

It seems I've upset a number of my DU friends.

It is amazing how they move to commands of the puppeteer.

No.  We demand comedy.

Now give, stupid.

Like a school of minnows.  Tap their environment and they all seem to dart, unquestioning and without thought, in the same direction.

This, of course, from the smartest-est people in history.

When you had young children you told them about Santa Claus.

Now you can tell liberals that liberalism works

And the smiles on their retarded little faces are just as precious.

The frowns that occur when it all unravels is even more satisfying to see.

You should take over in META, if you have an account. It's simply chock-full of goodies.

Consider this gem:

98. I see that you gave an overview of issues important to you as a gay man

that you feel that the President fumbled. I don't, however, see any indication that you are aware of the real world war on women at the state and federal level that is the underlying cause of frustration and anger that the women, and some men, are expressing on this board.
 
You are the one who needs to reflect.

Notice how he cites the "War on Wimmynz."

Now this war is wholly a fabrication on their part. They wanted free birth control and when people told them to pay for their own crap the sound bites evolved from "Free birth control!" to "They're gonna take our birth control away!"

IOW they framed the argument so that the as-yet-unachieved outcome was actually the de facto starting point and anything to the contrary was framed as taking away.

But now they are beholden to this narrative.

It doesn't matter that it is absolute horse shit from beginning to end they HAVE to maintain the fiction.

And they maintain it so well they now have convinced themselves of it.

And it is killing them.

No society can survive under the rules liberalism would impose.

That they have endured as long as they have is because we have served as a bulwark. But there comes a time when our actions to preserve what we have serve to prop up their dysfunction. Margaret Thatcher noted that socialism worked fine until you ran out of other people's money. Societally speaking we've been paying into their system by trying to defend our own.

That's not to blame anyone for a natural and proper response to a threat but we've now lost the political debate decisively. To maintain our bulwarks in society at large will only delay the decay that is inevitable. Look at liberal bastions such as Detroit, Chicago, LA and NY. They're hell holes.

It is time to stop allowing the liberals to scam our social capital. Make them live by their rules. Don't go CTer or any extremist nonsense but hold them to their speech codes and baseless moral preenings.

Shove it down their *******ed throats!

With a smile.

I am bunny! Slayer of meta!

Did you notice that not long after I wrote this thread Skimmer & Co LLC nuked the meta forum?

Dance my little puppets.

DANCE!



When I wrote the OP a month ago I said:

Most of them center on juries and MIRT either being too heavy-handed or no heavy enough. Case in point: the gay mafia and the feminists are showing just how impossible it is to satisfy their demands and still have a functioning society.

Today I bring you evidence of the truth of my words.

I was watching Firefly all last night so I did not see this when it originally posted over at AoSHQ but here it is:

Horrifying-Slash-Fascinating Video of Cultural Marxists Screaming At Each Other Like Mental Patients

—Ace

It's a real scene, Man.

And there's even a Part 2.

I wrote over at the other place:

[T]he main problem here is that we have three Major Players who each claim to be the Most Marginalized. Whoever is the Most Marginalized is permitted, according to the rules of Leftism, to say whatever he or she likes without challenge and have his or her assertion simply accepted without any backtalk.

And the problem is that Lesbian Avenger, Shirtless Transgendered, and Gay Guy/Lesbian all claim the status of Most Marginalized simultaneously and ergo argue that each one's Unquestionable Truth must trump all others. Which leads to a lot of frustration and confusion among all the players, as literally none of them can fathom why their "I Win" trump card isn't being honored.

Be sure to check out the links in Ace's post.
