    Yea, but the premise is REALLY believable. It’s something that would just fit the stupid of this years headlines.

    Following the successful US air strikes, Netanyahu has also discovered that Mossad agents found copies of the Epstein client list in Gaza, Hezbollah, and Syria.

    Hezbollah

    Lebanon?

    I know it’s the onion, but really, wouldn’t several countries have a copy of the list by now?

        Double agents, hacking attacks, who knows what the chain of command custody was on the hard drives cds and thumb drives they cut out of epsteins safe when the fbi raided his Manhattan townhouse mansion in ‘19. Intelligence agency assets are not very scrupulous people, their main motivators are money and self preservation

        Wow, what a rabbit hole. This person has a website selling tape, but with massive subsections detailing their abusive childhood, struggles with alcoholism, and then page after page of highly personal info, genealogy, conspiracy, freemasonry… you name it. This is like time cube all over again. I hate to say it but it looks like they are struggling with psychosis or something.

              Now there are entire subreddits full of it.

              It’s not the same.

              Old internet was conspiratorial and fascinating, like being in an alien a zoo. People were nuts; I’d want to have an IRL beer with them but not tell them where I live. Imageboards and such like that still exist, of course, but its mostly out of sight I guess.

              I just flipped through an imageboard pursuing something else and got a taste of that. Like, 5GB zips full of crazy documents and rants, a literal Hitler worshipping /pol mod, but you can see the nuggets of truth they’re orbiting around.

              Reddit and especially Twitter isn’t the same. It’s feels like all the users are manipulated into groupthink and (I refuse to have this term robbed from me) virtue signaling, especially when not anonymous. There’s nothing interesting if you dig; just some poor sap parroting professional influencers in their engagement algorithm bubble, nothing about whatever life crises sucked them in, nor the sheer manpower they put into building their little internet frontpage.

              And to be blunt, Lemmy is nice, but also feels this way sometimes.

                  I didn’t either, really. I get what you meant in Reddit subs, yeah, and I’ve seen it too.

                  I guess I’m just obsessed over the distinction of algorithmic vs “natural.” Imageboards and such have pretty crazy audiences and such, but other than that, they don’t have the same patterns or auto feeds to steer people. You fall into the hole you choose.
