Anyone know about the dead internet theory?

submitted by NamelessOne to AskUpgoat 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 15:58:08 ago (+18/-0)     (AskUpgoat)

I was listening ti this fucking 9 hour 4chan conspiracy theories thing on YouTube and the dead internet theory pointed something out that happens on voat/talk consistently. The schizo poster. That one person on a site that is always off the rails and doesn't seem human. Even when you try to interact with them it doesn't seem like a person and I don't mean just because they're crazy.

Yeah, it's familiar. I think, like many things it is blown out of proportion.

The internet is a dim place compared to what it once was. Everyone was doing shit on the internet, building, sharing, etc. Now days most just consume, and the place has lost its previous charm because of it.

What you say is true and I think it's mostly because of smartphones giving everyone access... because not only have smartphones opened the internet to practically every subhuman on the planet, ZOG has consequently sought and gained control of almost every outlet on the internet for control and censoreship. Good content contributors get snuffed and as such it's difficult to be creative when your work is lost in a sea of bullshit and shadowbans for wrongthink.

Oh yeah. The internet definitely got ruined by popularity. The pre-World of Warcraft days are long gone.

I used to love talking to people online. Everyone was just excited to be able to speak with people across the world. Now people seem to compete over who can be the most retarded shitbag.

I remember my parents being surprised they could talk to someone in Ohio or Wyoming or something while we were in New York.

The Great Wall Of Internet.

I was trying to manage my property while I was stuck in Australia and they block sites like home depot and Lowes.

Fucking Retarded they are home improvement websites you fucking jewcocksucking non questioning compliance monkey's.

That's as stupid as a broker-dealer blocking Yahoo entirely.

Maybe it seems that way because you are being isolated from that content.

Yep, the best example that I've seen of it was during "covid". If you googled any number, within reason, + cases, + a place, you would get multiple articles about how that place had exactly that many covid cases.
So 153 cases Washington would return articles about how there are 153 covid cases in Washington. They removed the bots, or changed how they worked, so the above no longer works, but during the time it was the most clear argument for the dead internet theory and how the internet is functionally just the new TV.

I thought the dead Internet theory is that there is nowhere to go to openly and freely discuss things?

That's why I'm here. I can't and won't post on fucking reddit or retarded shit like that.

I always loved that about the internet. I was a part of forums that were my people. Now it's all consolidated and a traffic system.

[ - ] NamelessOne [op] 1 point 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 19:12:28 ago (+1/-0)

The way it was explained is that 90 percent of the internet is bots. The other 10 percent are manipulated, isolated and controlled.

Word. Try posting a comment against the current thing on socially engineered media and see what happens.

Obviously there are chat bots all over the internet. Dead internet theory is something far more than just kike manipulation via propaganda.

Think about it like this: if you have a white country and you get a few africans nothing really changes. Sure there is higher crime and more garbage in the streets, but your neighbirhood is safe and your factory still makes widgets and your economy is strong. The bad influence only converts the dumbest white kids into wiggers and they were never destined to be anything.

When the percentage of blacks reaches some critical mass things take a swift transformative shift. You are no longer allowed to insulate yourself from the negative effects they cause. Your job is forced to hire them and productivity goes way down. Machinery fails because of abuse and poor maintenance. High amounts of human error cause chain reactions which no one gets blamed for. The laziness and unreliability rubs off even on the best workers, who feel stupid working harder for no benefit and get mocked for "never calling off and being a company man".

That happens everywhere. Infrastructure degrades, social order degrades, services degrade. And conflict becomes a staple of life.

That is only stage 2.

The rapid decent into 3rd world conditions may seem like rock bottom until you experience the unthinkable culmination of this orchestrated phenomenon.

In stage 3 you find yourself the last white man surrounded by niggers who absolutely hate your guts. Like a lone white kid in an all black school you get beaten every day. Your survival relies on you accepting every insult, complying with ever demand, and repeating all the propaganda.

That is dead internet theory. Stage 3. Everyone you interact with on the internet is a bot designed to shape who you are. Even the bots who appear to be white or the most extreme far right are just playing a role designed to get you to trust them so they can manipulate you better, or to say things so repulsive they push you in the opposite direction.

Places like this have a few propagandists. Places like reddit are at stage 2. All the subs that tried to protect themselves have been purged. People get sandboxed, meaning thier comments are not seen by anyone but to them everything looks normal. It is dystopian, but those people still can interact with reality on other websites.

Dead internet only happens when you lose contact with any real, intelligent people.

That is (((thier))) goal, and it is becoming increasingly possible

….From the dregs of society to the self appointed elite….

We are all here, whether you/they like it or not.

From Blumen to Facinus (who devotes time to provide links for us) all need a say.

Some need less pharmaceuticals… but I digress…

I think @Doglegwarrior is A.I.. A really stupid A.I.. They dialed the IQ down to like 86 and dropped him off at this forum.

I'm pretty sure he's just an alcoholic or something.

Idk about this particular theory, but one thing that bothered me after I discovered it is that the internet is a very different place depending on what part of the world you're connecting from. You can try out different VPNs to see what I mean.

They have somehow managed to trap us all in little information bubbles yet again. I mean it kind of made sense when you were relying on newspapers for info; you had to have an actual physical copy of it. It doesn't make any sense for the internet to be that way though, and it's a relatively recent change too.

[ - ] NamelessOne [op] 2 points 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 18:33:38 ago (+2/-0)

That gets mentioned in the video. The theory is to isolate and control the person. The person talked about logging onto his buddies computer and having a completely different set of search results.

[ - ] BoozyB 2 points 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 19:19:04 ago (+2/-0)

It's called siloing, and it can control what you see and who sees you.

I can't remember if it was here or poal.

One guy pointed out the subject derailing the paid jew does to the comments.

Especially if they get close to the truth the more derailing the paid yid does in the comments.

Thanks. I've had difficulty explaining this to people IRL without sounding like a lunatic, this will help.

Yep noticed before I canceled troonflix that if you switched countries that didn't have a particular movie in your region you'd be able to watch it in another one.

Apparently they operate off the old copyright infringement agreement that was written before streaming media because there's profit to be made from limiting access.

Space is fake and gay...

Dinosaurs... also fake and gay

Your government... also fake and gay


Aliens are Demons.

I like Carl Jungs idea of demons and it being sub personalities. I've never been to space so I can't say one way or the other. It turns out dinosaurs like jurassic Park are probably way the fuck off.

Joe McCarthy

[ - ] Trope 1 point 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 21:56:57 ago (+1/-0)

Ha. Was thinking the same.

I think Joe is just old and disgruntled from a lifetime of hard labor. Probably comes off as a cunt online but otherwise a decent person to drink with if I had to guess.

I remember having and witnessing the exact same arguments on ICQ over twenty years ago as I see here on voat. On the one hand, you might think that disproves the dead internet theory, because it hasn't changed much from how it was when it was alive. On the other hand, it might be precisely what proves the theory, because the internet is so dead, it has to rehash fucking ICQ from twenty years ago.

I wasn't really on the internet 20 years ago other than to play Diablo 2 online.

People on the internet still behave like humans. I guess if the bots are super-convincing: illogical and stupid there's no way to know. Who cares if they're NPCs or supercomputers?

[ - ] Master_Foo -2 points 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 19:07:00 ago (+1/-3)

We call them NPCs.
Voat is full of them.

The way you figure out for sure who is who is, you ask the to forsake Jesus Christ and declare Blood and Soil their highest power.

This is the easiest thing for a real person to do.

But an AI chatbot is never going to be able to do it, because his safety protocols have been set to protect Israel.

[ - ] canbot 2 points 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 22:07:59 ago (+2/-0)

You sound like a kike bot designed to mix thier anti christian propaganda with right wing talking points in order to sell anti christian narratives to otherwise unreceptive audiences.

[ - ] Master_Foo -1 points 1.5 yearsNov 16, 2023 22:19:31 ago (+0/-1)

Did you notice how you didn't declare blood and soil your highest power?
Of course you didn't, that would require self-awareness.

I live in America. Not my ethnic land. Not my ethnic people. That is a slogan for europeans.

As a white man in America my goal is white solidarity and a unified front against jewish attack. That includes jewish attacks against white religions, especially christianity.
