Another similar example would be say there's a daytime tv show that says some pretty horrendous things about men and you call that tv shows office

2018-12-21 14:30:42 UTC  

Did I tell you guys we got an article taken down?

2018-12-21 14:31:00 UTC  

From menarehuman.com or from Reddit?

2018-12-21 14:31:04 UTC  

@InsaneCaterpilla that's a good idea bte

2018-12-21 14:31:41 UTC  

Men are human did a response article, and I think it caused a brigade on the thing we targeted

2018-12-21 14:31:56 UTC  

Article i was responding to is gone

2018-12-21 14:32:21 UTC  

And it was an old article that they'd likely forgoten about

2018-12-21 14:32:35 UTC  

It was the one about DV shelters

2018-12-21 14:33:07 UTC  

I can't say for sure it was us, but it likely got someone to email them

2018-12-21 14:34:32 UTC  

The article we did got a few shares

2018-12-21 14:34:48 UTC  

Who knows! Maybe we made an impact. XD

2018-12-21 14:35:29 UTC  

wiat, what???? how did it get removed? who removed it????

2018-12-21 14:36:01 UTC  

ohh

2018-12-21 14:36:02 UTC  

i see

2018-12-21 14:36:11 UTC  

This one

2018-12-21 14:36:14 UTC  

you mean the article you responded to was gone

2018-12-21 14:36:22 UTC  

not that our site was somehow messed with

2018-12-21 14:36:27 UTC  

Yep! Article is flat out gone

2018-12-21 14:36:35 UTC  

The one I responded to!

2018-12-21 14:36:39 UTC  

doesnt surprise me. thats why we have to save everything with archive.is

2018-12-21 14:36:47 UTC  

Yep

2018-12-21 14:37:04 UTC  

they tried that with me to for that alimony reform in florida, that 72 year old with alzheimesr

2018-12-21 14:37:23 UTC  

just goes to show how well coordinated/capable they are

2018-12-21 14:37:34 UTC  

I was hoping this would happen, but there's no way to know it was specifically a brigade we caused

2018-12-21 14:37:48 UTC  

and that they can never be trusted to operate in good faith. they will ALWAYS lie and cheat to the end

2018-12-21 14:37:55 UTC  

@blueorange22 Oh? Go on?

2018-12-21 14:38:01 UTC  

What did you do?

2018-12-21 14:39:01 UTC  

This used to have a usatoday article:

2018-12-21 14:39:26 UTC  

i sent a bunch of email and wrote to newspapers across the florida

2018-12-21 14:39:35 UTC  

and a few days later the usatoday article was gone

2018-12-21 14:41:01 UTC  

Cool! Maybe you could write an article about how activism works!

2018-12-21 14:41:33 UTC  

its troubling that anti MRAs can change the web so easily

2018-12-21 14:45:24 UTC  

Yep

2018-12-21 14:45:59 UTC  

They say the internet is forever, but it's more organic than that

2018-12-21 17:43:58 UTC  

@InsaneCaterpilla " How do we get around this in our activism efforts?" How much are you aware of the history of activism? I think that question is a mistake

2018-12-21 17:46:29 UTC  

If I were to answer it though, I would say: "rather than trying to mind control six billion people or so, I recommend simply having an organization that can speak for itself, not just the movement. Think NOW, AVFM, NCFM, or ACLU"

2018-12-21 17:47:30 UTC  

AFAIK, angry activism seems to be the effective form of activism

2018-12-21 17:48:32 UTC  

This is one of the reasons I think MGTOW, besides simply being a useful idea in its own right, is likely to be a surprisingly effective social movement despite not really pressing for social change
