https://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/today.phpIt's an old conspiracy site that used to be quite good back in the day. However,it has slowly descended into normie tier rep/dem political pablum in recent years.
For reasons that are still unclear it appears that it just went full free speech mode. New owner took over recently and a few days ago all moderators and many long time members were banned.
People are speculating that it was hacked. Or the new ownership fucked up some code update. Or new ownership purged shill mods. Or feds took it over. Nobody really knows.
Topics like the JQ or pizzagate were never allowed there and quickly and quietly shoa'd along with users who brought them up. Interesting timing that this event coincides with the Israel dust-up. Scanning through some of those Israel threads the resident glownoses are very apparent.
Anyone familiar with this site and what's going with it? I've lurked there off and on over the years but never made an account due to the obvious censorship of certain (((topics))). Now it seems those restrictions are gone for reasons unknown.

That's the thread about the protocols I was talking about. In the past anything resembling that would be scrubbed and the user banned up until the last couple of days.

It could be just the new owner/admin fucking with people to find out how gullible their conspiracy cattle have become or simply trolling them. That seems to be the most benign option of a whole host of options. No idea what it is but I'm enjoying my popcorn.

Here's one of the former mods kvetching about getting nuked. He mentions augustusmasonicus in a positive light who appeared to be one of the main shill mods on there, at least as I understand it. Perhaps this could end up being a positive development for the site. It's interesting to watch the competing narratives develop even though I do lack context of who is who and background knowledge since I never participated there.

Ah, just looked it up and it went offline. The woman who ran it died, apparently.
