<2023-01-06T08:58:33.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: I'll give you the rundown on Scalar. His bait post brought in a lot of DMs from accounts made after September, some trying to get him to break the law by offering medical advice, some trying to get him to share info on his online purchases to get more data points they can correlate to who he is IRL, and some putting curses on him. He decided to quit fedi because gay ops are inbound and fed presences is getting too high to have productive conversations
<2023-01-06T09:00:52.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: I deleted the post since I hadn't checked if he wanted people to know about his TG, turns out he's fine iwth it
<2023-01-06T18:44:50.000Z> Owl: Thanks for the intel, I'm just happy to have him be okay.
<2023-01-14T06:39:19.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Bot is crazy, best to not interact.
<2023-01-14T06:39:41.000Z> Owl: They say that bot is actually dangerous, but none really say how.
<2023-01-14T06:40:43.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Kiwifarmer, if she feels you've crossed her, she will try to ruin you
<2023-01-14T06:41:37.000Z> Owl: Kiwifarmer? STILL?
<2023-01-14T06:42:41.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: The whole graf is a pedo thing is a good example. Graf is not, but she feels because the instance allows loli it makes him one. He did it at the start of Poast at the advice of a mod who is no longer with Poast and turned into a tranny lover. Now he's stuck with it because if he changes the rule it will be blood in the water for all the retards who have come after him
<2023-01-14T06:43:23.000Z> Owl: graf clearly isn't a pedophile, what a garbage thing to say about someone. I hate Kiwifarmers so much it's unreal.
<2023-01-14T06:43:52.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: idk about still, I don't go there, just know that she is a nutcase with a record
<2023-01-14T06:44:18.000Z> Owl: I'm not putting up with Kiwifarmers. I have a vehement dislike for them.
<2023-01-14T06:44:19.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Which is why it's so dumb that for 2 years has been posting that he is
<2023-01-14T06:45:19.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Yeah, I used to be agnostic about them but after all the shit Poast went through I do not like them. Some of the most mentally ill people in the world
<2023-01-14T06:46:00.000Z> Owl: The amount of garbage that they start is /phenomenal/.
<2023-01-14T06:47:35.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Also the fact that its a way of laundering info for intelligence agencies. Get info on someone, dump it there, now it's public and there's plausible deniability that the info originated from a fed, now antifa or whatever goons or contractors can use it with impunity
<2023-01-14T06:48:54.000Z> Owl: See, PonyPanda said that once and I thought it was insane. And now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense.
<2023-01-14T06:49:10.000Z> Owl: Like how Twitter mobs don't "find" people. Intelligence agencies sprinkle in critical identifying details.
<2023-01-14T06:50:26.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Twitter and big tech both have a revolving door for intelligence agencies and government employees. When the administration changes, they jump over for a term, then go back
<2023-01-14T06:50:59.000Z> Owl: Very unsurprising. Lends weight to pessimism, but I'm still going to persist.
<2023-01-14T06:51:07.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: It's a massive web of corruption.
<2023-01-14T06:51:45.000Z> Owl: Which is why I wonder how long places like Poast have.
<2023-01-14T06:52:51.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Yeah, we're all just biding our time. The cracks are showing as the system is failing under its own weight, both in size and complexity, but also as the competent people are swapped for sub 90 IQ diversity hires
<2023-01-14T06:53:09.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Poast is a big target, there needs to be more instances
<2023-01-14T06:54:13.000Z> Owl: I've been thinking of kicking up my own instance. But I don't have the intelligence or downtime to manage such a thing. I'd like mine to be small. Carefully managed. Mugicha is an ideal model.
<2023-01-14T06:54:41.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: The influx of journalists also brings an influx of feds. They are here, but use the journalists as recon to see how the place works and integrate
<2023-01-14T06:55:22.000Z> Owl: It's only a matter of time before a journalist takes advantage of any kind of schism or a disgruntled member of the community to work their way in.
<2023-01-14T06:57:20.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Mugi is a good model: small, vetted users, closed registrations, and cannot be viewed directly.
<2023-01-14T06:58:27.000Z> Owl: I like Mugi. The people who post there are great as well. Originally I wanted to ask Nozaki if there was any way I might join since I am as of an hour ago hunting down a new instance to do my painting and owl-posting shtick from, but that's a failure to launch.
<2023-01-14T06:58:34.000Z> Owl: Thus I won't ask.
<2023-01-14T07:03:10.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Who says they aren't the ones instigating them. While right wing dissidents are good at infighting, a lot of the hell threads could very well be ops. Operation Gladio was basically that, post WWII Italy, CIA funded fascist groups. Lots of infighting but also killing commies lol. Myth of the 20th Century did a thing on it, it was called Years of Lead
<2023-01-14T07:03:34.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Graf would help you spin up your own. He helped Nozaki too
<2023-01-14T07:03:38.000Z> Owl: Bookmarked for research purposes.
<2023-01-14T07:04:04.000Z> Owl: Graf openly admitted to disliking me for whatever reason, so I'm not going to hang around his instance where that will likely lead to issues later on down the line. No hard feelings to him, but yeah.
<2023-01-14T07:04:09.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: Nozaki is still learning, he asks him tech support stuff pretty regularly
<2023-01-14T07:05:07.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: That may not stop him from helping you, his mission is to grow fedi. He kills two birds with one stone, gets rid of you and makes fedi healthier lol
<2023-01-14T07:05:24.000Z> Owl: Mind, I've never done anything to the lad but.
<2023-01-14T07:05:32.000Z> CaoCao@mugicha.club: He's an odd one
