Downvote Bots Fight Propaganda War

http://georgewashington2.blogspot.com/2009/01/downvote-bots-fight-propaganda-war.html

Government propagandists, their hired private contractors and useful idiots are creating "downvote bots" or scripts to bury stories which question the government.

Anyone who has posted news items questioning the government's version of 9/11, the government's unquestioning support for Israel, or a host of other topics has probably noticed that all of their recent stories get downvoted virtually simultaneously, which defies the laws of probability.

One free, simple scripting program to create automatic downvotes of certain topics or news posters is called "Greasemonkey", which is commonly used on large social news sites such as Reddit.

For example, there are some 2,480 hits for the google search site:reddit.com greasemonkey downvote. This is some 2,480 times that Reddit users are publicly admitting to using greasemonkey.

Propaganda agents obviously aren't going to publicly brag about what they are doing, and you can bet that their use of downvote bots is much greater. Moreover, they probably have more sophisticated software than Greasemonkey.

I call on programmers to figure out a way to fight this cyberwarfare propaganda.

Note: Greasemonkey has valid uses as well, such as blocking pop-up ads.

All media and social vectors should be used

All media and social vectors should be used. The battles on the social sites is important. We need to also have DVDs on the street. Etc.

Podcasts are important because they get the media out smoothly and cheaply onto computers and portable devices.

If we lose internet freedom we might lose youtube and google video.

Here (if I do say so myself) is an excellent compilation in Apple iTunes store, podcast and web format.

Best is to click through to the Apple iTunes store and subscribe. This will drive up the ranking. There is lots of other good stuff there.

Thanks.

Peace.

This is a problem as well

This is a problem as well with video social networks like youtube where 9/11 truth posts are constantly and continually attacked by bots, idiots, jrefers and their ilk.
Do people actually pay attention to downvotes? I wonder. I don't. The title of the post is generally what catches my eye.

911Blogger has a very healthy forum. Others: Hhhmmm

Apart from the professional opinion-warfare bloggers paid for by the defence industry, you also have large groups of organised opinion bloggers organized arround some type of ideological theme, like "Is it good for Israel?" Here is an example of a tool like that, that regroups +/- 40.000 users(!) : www.giyus.org ("Give Israel Your United Support dot ORG". Actually, when something gets voted down below viewing threshold, yes I think it can influence where the debate goes. We must choose our debates to be of high relevance.

What is of HIGH RELEVANCE right now is pushing for war-crimes charges on the persons we suspect to have been involved in the mass murder of civilians. This is in the news right now concerning the people who are responsible for the massacre of civilians in Gaza, and the abject bombing of the United Nations Relief agency in Gaza with White Phosphorus. One courageous group working out of Tel Aviv in this direction is : http://www.wanted.org.il/ehud_barak_en.htm There is not much to vote about on this, we must just get to work, while also not forgetting to gather factual evidence on the people we suspect where involved in the 9/11 political mass murders, people like Giuliani, Silverstein, Rumsfeld, Cheney, but also possibly the up-coming Prime Minister of Israel, extremist Likudnik Benyamin Netanyahu. It has been reported that Silverstein was on the phone with him on a weekly basis before the 9/11 attacks. We need to organize a point by point list of why we have strong suspicions that these people (and many others, connected to CFR, COG, PNAC etc, etc) were involved on a high level, as well as on a nitty-gritty Cover-Up level (NIST) of the criminal government sponsored mass murders. (see for inspiration, the site: www.wanted.org.il/ehud_barak_en.htm ) This would best be done in a Truth and Reconciliation spirit, to encourage the whole truth to come forward.

Truth, although painful, is healing. It is cutting out the nauseous pus out of a festering abscess. It is necessary, and it is urgent! Let us DO IT NOW!

Thanks for researching

about the downvote bots. I more often than not get voted down to zero on my posts at reddit.

Speaking of bots,

I'm a low tech guy but that suggestion to subscribe to Apple I tunes store from Free Truth srtuck me as kinda odd. As one who never watches commercials for how icky they make me feel....was wondering....??

Where did the Mike Connel story go?

only negative uses?

Is there any possibility of using this type of software for our purposes? -- say, to get Russell Tice's latest accusations more visible? Can we use the same weapon, different way? Or can it only be used in a negative way?
