oh right this is the crypto one

2018-09-18 22:01:21 UTC  

Steemit is the crypto one

2018-09-18 22:01:25 UTC  

Minds is fine tho

2018-09-18 22:01:29 UTC  

First its the Intellectual Dark Web, now its the Alternative Influence Network

2018-09-18 22:01:38 UTC  

I think Styx said that everyone with an audience + countersignals the mainstream is a potential target

2018-09-18 22:01:39 UTC  

ha

2018-09-18 22:01:51 UTC  

AIN sounds more Big Brotherly

2018-09-18 22:02:03 UTC  

How dare there be alternative sources of influence?

2018-09-18 22:02:16 UTC  

ya they can point at the "AIN" like a marvel badguy

2018-09-18 22:02:27 UTC  

Other way around

2018-09-18 22:02:37 UTC  

You can't villify AIN without looking like a nutjob

2018-09-18 22:02:40 UTC  

With that wording

2018-09-18 22:03:02 UTC  

AIN = Actual Intellect Network? 😛

2018-09-18 22:03:11 UTC  

i beg to differ, that wording is catchy

2018-09-18 22:03:14 UTC  

Wew

2018-09-18 22:03:14 UTC  

thats what they do

2018-09-18 22:03:16 UTC  

catchy

2018-09-18 22:03:19 UTC  

it gets in your head

2018-09-18 22:03:31 UTC  

so you think, oh ya that ain thing

2018-09-18 22:03:34 UTC  

they said it was bad

2018-09-18 22:03:36 UTC  

It's a nice term because no one actually wants to be called "alt right" except Richard Spencer

2018-09-18 22:03:36 UTC  

Its not really, and you've missed the point

2018-09-18 22:03:37 UTC  

AIN just sounds like a dog trying to eat fast

Ain ain ain ain

2018-09-18 22:03:46 UTC  

lol

2018-09-18 22:03:48 UTC  

What's bad? Alternate influence

2018-09-18 22:03:51 UTC  

But everyoen wants to be an "alternative" to the mainstream media because the MSM is fucking garbage

2018-09-18 22:04:09 UTC  

Telling you what to think is our job

2018-09-18 22:04:32 UTC  

You know, the sentiment that got them into the shithouse in the first place

2018-09-18 22:05:31 UTC  

i cant believe it took this long of a paper for that study

2018-09-18 22:05:43 UTC  

seriously should have been like 2 pages

2018-09-18 22:05:52 UTC  

Someone was telling me once that the Internet was founded in the first place to get fringe discussion into a space it's easier to monitor and control, to avoid a repeat of the Anti-Vietnam War movement.

2018-09-18 22:06:08 UTC  

And it wasn't just a response to the launch of SPutnik as the popular history goes

2018-09-18 22:06:09 UTC  

that is what every study is like

2-3 pages of actual info, 50 pages of just filler

2 pages of references

2018-09-18 22:06:11 UTC  

get em tim

2018-09-18 22:06:38 UTC  

Tim this isn't an academic paper. It's not journalism. There isn't any sort of standard to pass and as far as they're concerned there's nothing to correct because you belong on that hit list.

2018-09-18 22:07:15 UTC  

the man is blunt but he has a point

2018-09-18 22:07:33 UTC  

at best

2018-09-18 22:07:41 UTC  

maybe tim can get his name taken off

2018-09-18 22:07:50 UTC  

Why would they do that?

2018-09-18 22:07:54 UTC  

but there wont be any official announcement of the retraction
