APES WHO ARE GIVING THIS AWARDS. BUY MORE STOCKS OF YOUR FAVORITE COMPANY OR DONATE TO CHARITY. I LOVE AUTISM AND ADHD AWARENESS ORGANIZATIONS. EDUCATION IS ALSO GREAT
A potential shill erased all his posts regarding negative sentiment on $GME earlier. I asked him why he had deleted his posts. He hit me with he did not.
<https://imgur.com/a/nC6NTfE>
This is an obvious attempt at gaslighting, which is a form of unethical manipulation.
Please, be vigilant out there, apes.
A very easy way to spot shills is by looking at their submission history.
Bot accounts or people making accounts to sell will go into subreddits that allow karma farming like WSB and [r/FreeKarma4U](https://www.reddit.com/r/FreeKarma4U/) delete those posts and act like it's because "they scrub their history". Fuck off.
NOTE THIS IS AN XPOST BELOW. I DO HAVE A TLDR OF THE FIRST ARTICLE I WROTE THO IF YOU LOOK IN MY COMMENTS
To get you started:

[How to Debate Like a Manipulative Bully](https://thepowermoves.com/ben-shapiro-debate-techniques/) --- It is worth pointing out that once you understand these tactics those who use them start to sound like whiny, illogical, and unjustifiably confident asshats.

[EthicalRealism's Take on Manipulative Tactics](https://ethicalrealism.wordpress.com/2013/08/30/manipulative-tactics/)
Any time you feel yourself start to get regularly dumbstruck during any and every argument with a particular person, remind yourself of these unethical and pathetically desperate tactics to avoid manipulation via asshat.
Also, as someone commented, a related concept you should know about to have the above knowledge be even more effective is Cognitive Bias and the associated concept of Cognitive Dissonance:

[DD 📊](https://www.reddit.com/r/GME/search?q=flair_name%3A%22DD%20%F0%9F%93%8A%22&restrict_sr=1)
Technique #1 - 'FORUM SLIDING'
If a very sensitive posting of a critical nature has been posted on a forum - it can be quickly removed from public view by 'forum sliding.' In this technique a number of unrelated posts are quietly prepositioned on the forum and allowed to 'age.' Each of these misdirectional forum postings can then be called upon at will to trigger a 'forum slide.' The second requirement is that several fake accounts exist, which can be called upon, to ensure that this technique is not exposed to the public. To trigger a 'forum slide' and 'flush' the critical post out of public view it is simply a matter of logging into each account both real and fake and then 'replying' to prepositined postings with a simple 1 or 2 line comment. This brings the unrelated postings to the top of the forum list, and the critical posting 'slides' down the front page, and quickly out of public view. Although it is difficult or impossible to censor the posting it is now lost in a sea of unrelated and unuseful postings. By this means it becomes effective to keep the readers of the forum reading unrelated and non-issue items.
Technique #2 - 'CONSENSUS CRACKING'
A second highly effective technique (which you can see in operation all the time at [www.abovetopsecret.com](https://www.abovetopsecret.com/)) is 'consensus cracking.' To develop a consensus crack, the following technique is used. Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.' Thus the uninformed reader will most like develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'
Technique #3 - 'TOPIC DILUTION'
Topic dilution is not only effective in forum sliding it is also very useful in keeping the forum readers on unrelated and non-productive issues. This is a critical and useful technique to cause a 'RESOURCE BURN.' By implementing continual and non-related postings that distract and disrupt (trolling ) the forum readers they are more effectively stopped from anything of any real productivity. If the intensity of gradual dilution is intense enough, the readers will effectively stop researching and simply slip into a 'gossip mode.' In this state they can be more easily misdirected away from facts towards uninformed conjecture and opinion. The less informed they are the more effective and easy it becomes to control the entire group in the direction that you would desire the group to go in. It must be stressed that a proper assessment of the psychological capabilities and levels of education is first determined of the group to determine at what level to 'drive in the wedge.' By being too far off topic too quickly it may trigger censorship by a forum moderator.
Technique #4 - 'INFORMATION COLLECTION'
Information collection is also a very effective method to determine the psychological level of the forum members, and to gather intelligence that can be used against them. In this technique in a light and positive environment a 'show you mine so me yours' posting is initiated. From the number of replies and the answers that are provided much statistical information can be gathered. An example is to post your 'favourite weapon' and then encourage other members of the forum to showcase what they have. In this matter it can be determined by reverse proration what percentage of the forum community owns a firearm, and or a illegal weapon. This same method can be used by posing as one of the form members and posting your favourite 'technique of operation.' From the replies various methods that the group utilizes can be studied and effective methods developed to stop them from their activities.
Technique #5 - 'ANGER TROLLING'
Statistically, there is always a percentage of the forum posters who are more inclined to violence. In order to determine who these individuals are, it is a requirement to present a image to the forum to deliberately incite a strong psychological reaction. From this the most violent in the group can be effectively singled out for reverse IP location and possibly local enforcement tracking. To accomplish this only requires posting a link to a video depicting a local police officer massively abusing his power against a very innocent individual. Statistically of the million or so police officers in America there is always one or two being caught abusing there powers and the taping of the activity can be then used for intelligence gathering purposes - without the requirement to 'stage' a fake abuse video. This method is extremely effective, and the more so the more abusive the video can be made to look. Sometimes it is useful to 'lead' the forum by replying to your own posting with your own statement of violent intent, and that you 'do not care what the authorities think!!' inflammation. By doing this and showing no fear it may be more effective in getting the more silent and self-disciplined violent intent members of the forum to slip and post their real intentions. This can be used later in a court of law during prosecution.
Technique #6 - 'GAINING FULL CONTROL'
It is important to also be harvesting and continually maneuvering for a forum moderator position. Once this position is obtained, the forum can then be effectively and quietly controlled by deleting unfavourable postings - and one can eventually steer the forum into complete failure and lack of interest by the general public. This is the 'ultimate victory' as the forum is no longer participated with by the general public and no longer useful in maintaining their freedoms. Depending on the level of control you can obtain, you can deliberately steer a forum into defeat by censoring postings, deleting memberships, flooding, and or accidentally taking the forum offline. By this method the forum can be quickly killed. However it is not always in the interest to kill a forum as it can be converted into a 'honey pot' gathering center to collect and misdirect newcomers and from this point be completely used for your control for your agenda purposes.
CONCLUSION
Remember these techniques are only effective if the forum participants DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THEM. Once they are aware of these techniques the operation can completely fail, and the forum can become uncontrolled. At this point other avenues must be considered such as initiating a false legal precidence to simply have the forum shut down and taken offline. This is not desirable as it then leaves the enforcement agencies unable to track the percentage of those in the population who always resist attempts for control against them. Many other techniques can be utilized and developed by the individual and as you develop further techniques of infiltration and control it is imperative to share then with HQ.

PUTTING SHILLS ON BLAST, A CONCERNED /BIZ/NESSMAN HAS COME TO SNITCH ON HEDGIE SPYS. MORE INSIDE.

TLDR FOR THE ADHD CHIMPS: THERE'S FUCKERY AFOOT AND I HAVE THE SCRIPT.
First off, before I begin, I want to be 101% clear on the matter. I come from /biz/, you guys know where that is. This is my first Reddit account ever, and I feel a little dirty even setting foot in here, but what is done must be done, and the record made clear... Even if it may seem cringe inducing or alien to you all. I am here because I am sick and tired of the Games being played with us by corrupt businessmen, and they have overstepped their boundaries, and have begun to attack us in our own /gme/ General. What I am about to say is more than speculation, because the amount of people being banned from our threads over trivial matters and even complete fabricated reasons have been on the rise.
It began a couple of weeks ago, when our Moderation and Administration decided to put our their need for Janitors to monitor the threads. A Janitor's place is to watch and make sure people do follow our loose rule system. We are not some Monstrous place where all manner of ill intent is allowed to fester, but is instead a place where freedom of speech is supposed to be unhindered, and the individual is left to sift through misinformation and outright lies to find the nuggets of truth. We have our own culture, yes, and as alien as it is to people like you here on Reddit, it is what we use to pick the outsiders off from the regulars. It is almost a cipher language in and of itself, for all of the grotesque contents of the vernacular involved. We have noticed a large uptick in the amount of people who do not fit in. That in and of itself is a normal, expected occurrence, as the site we call home gets increased traffic to relevant boards when relevant situations rear head.The issue was, they were obviously not here to ask questions about the stock. For the past 3 months, /gme/ has been the busiest thread on /biz/ by a wide margin, with people coming from the woodwork to lie about very easy to understand information, to insult us and belittle us, and generally attempt psychological warfare for the sheer sake of disrupting our thread cohesion and convincing people to sell. We thought, just maybe, for a second that it was our own, but we noticed a severe uptick in anti-Semitic commentary, which, while the home site is known for... /biz/ itself has more of a problem with Indian Coin scammers, which do their part to try and fleece people of their hard-earned money and gains. The Administration has done nothing to stop this from happening, and the amount of policing on /biz/ for years has been abysmal.Why do i bring this up, you ask? Because after the Janitorial Acceptance letters went out, policing in the threads of /gme/ and ONLY /gme/ went up exponentially. If you do not believe me, all you have to do is go to the current thread now, and look back through the archived ones. You will see nothing but blaming a "hugh" and "Jannies" for our problems, in customary abrasive manner. Hugh was an anon who showed up and tried to Threadsplit(A process by which you slow traffic and conversation by diverting attention using multiple threads of the same name.) the general, and using his either an IP spoofer to mass report people, or having connections now with our administration, started reporting anyone who did not agree with his threadsplitting, drama inducing narrative. After all, at the end of the day, people just want to talk about stock, yes?We managed to get unbanned, some using proper means, others just dodging it with sheer tech savvy, and pushed him out before it got too bad, and he has since been silent.But when the acceptance letters for Janitorial staff went out proper, the bans jumped up 10000000000%.People are getting banned for non-issues, they are getting banned for being on topic, they are being banned for speaking UP about people getting banned unfairly. **Today, before i ate my own threeday over a non-issue, i even watched someone's post on the 1000% increased volatility being bullish be outright deleted within seconds of my refresh of the page.** Don't think you are alone in this reddit. We may not agree fundamentally on the underhive of the world and the people in power, and we may not agree on alot of things.But we can agree one 1. And that is why i came here to snitch and tell you all that /biz/ as a whole has been compromised and you are not the only people being targeted by the hedge fund menace.
To close this rather girthy post, we normally don't get so much space to make our points known, i will close with this: **Me and several others believe that all of the /biz/-Reddit friction has been a psyop from the hedge funds to keep us from working together, as the amount of people who show up to shit on reddit and redditors despite being where the brunt of our GME data is mined is legitimately staggering.**People who have been there for the last three months can vouch for me, though i do not know if they will have the spine to do what i have, and take the leap into an ocean they never dabbled in.I am tired, redditors. I am tired of being harassed and bullied by people who don't even attempt to read the truth, they know they will just be paid for spamming bullshit, and when we found ways to counter this bullshit, they stepped overboard and began using our own sites reporting system to stifle conversation and theorizing because they know otherwise, they cannot stop us with "Karma" and "Downvotes" like they do here.
I will not be silence, Hedgies. You can shut me up, you can kill me, but you cannot stop our voice from being heard if it hits the mainstream. I'm not asking for a signal boost, i'm not begging for your help.I just want them to know.**We are coming for your bank accounts, citadel. You messed with the wrong people, when I buy /biz/ and the homesite i am going to purge every single stain you have left on the site, and bring back the freedom we, and /REDDIT/ deserves.THE INTERNET IS MEANT TO BE FREE, AND I WILL NOT STAND ANYMORE FOR THE ABUSE OF SITE FEATURES FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF CENSORSHIP.**Buckle up, because i'm not done exposing your underhanded tactics to the world.
BELOW, you will find an image of *SUPPOSED***methods used by banks and the hedgefunds to dismantle online communities, we believe that these are what has been used to collapse /wsb and several other communities to keep you all from coordinating prices during the moon.**I may not be an ape like you all, but we Gibbons have been screaming in the trees for a long time, and it's about time the Apes and Gibbons teamed up, don't you think? You don't have to believe me, but I'm not the type to just go someplace and lie. I want to get rich like the rest of you. I'm just tired, Reddit. And you should be too.<https://imgur.com/a/vvEPZpi>

This negative Barbara roper narrative is FUD.

Alright, I saw a post at the top of our sub out with god damn pitch forks because of the SEC's newest senior advisor, Barbara Roper.
I went over to her Twitter and holy shit, bad actors and shills are all over with really negative comments.
The number of posts quoting her in Feb are sus. I totally agree that if those were really her words, that's bullshit. But we've been shit on for months by everyone. The MSM, financial fuckers, you name it. Why does this matter now?
Anyways, I did some digging and found some DD on her.
Wall Street doesn't like Barbara Roper. This is why they're using her quote back in Feb to paint apes as a pitch fork mob mentality.
I do wanna bring her testimony to attention about the 2008 crisis to outweigh the negative narrative people are posting about.
Also, I keep getting downvoted and shit on by people. It's jacking my tits hard that they don't like this.
<https://consumerfed.org/testimonial/testimony-of-barbara-roper-on-wall-street-and-the-fiduciary-duties-for-the-senate-judiciary-subcommittee-on-crime-and-drugs/>
"What we and other banks, rating agencies and regulators failed to do was sound the alarm that there was too much lending and too much leverage in the system -- that credit had become too cheap.‖2 What comes through from these statements, however, is that Wall Street, while accepting some responsibility, views its role as at best secondary. They were simply market makers, according to this account, bringing together buyers and sellers, and providing liquidity to the markets -- doing --God's work,‖ if you will.
The evidence, however, suggests a much deeper culpability. Wall Street's blame is not simply that they failed to recognize risk building up in the system, or failed to adequately sound the alarm when they did recognize that risk, or failed to warn their customers against doing things that were harmful to those customers' interests. Wall Street's blame is that, in their pursuit of the profits that fed their multi-billion-dollar bonus pools, they abandoned any sense of responsibility to ensure that the products they developed and sold served some economic utility or served their clients' interests or benefited anything but their own bottom line.
This reality was on full display in last week's hearing before the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. As the Subcommittee noted in its release in advance of the hearing, --Goldman and other investment banks played a crucial role in building and running the conveyor belt that fed toxic mortgages and mortgage-backed securities into the financial system.‖ Documents released by the Subcommittee call into question Goldman's efforts to portray itself simply as a market maker serving client needs.
