I haven't even gotten into any real arguments recently, it's pretty obviously from that post.

    Someone should actually DM this to Brace and see if he can turn it into an episode. There's definitely more to it than the r/CTH angle.

      the Chapo hosts would probably give him shit for it

      Now's the time because the heat has died down from the subreddit/Chapo host beef and "reddit censorship" by the CIA is a big deal, should be right up TrueAnon's ally, if they weren't spooks themselves.

      Edit: Unironically, Brace is a spook who went to Syria to negotiate with the YPG and give them arms on behalf of the US.

    can confirm the post was removed by "Anti-Evil Operations" according to the moderation log

        no, I believe it's the opposite. presumably Jayfeather69 is the reddit admin from the "Anti-Evil Operations" team that removed it. (I always have to quote that name because it's so fucking stupid and reminds me of Bardfinn ranting)

        EDIT: I misread it, Jayfeather's the user who posted it. but if I had to guess it was probably flagged for review because of having Ashooh's name in it and then manually removed

              I feel like it’s worse than that. If they’re competent (debatable) they might start monitoring for potential brigading. Again debatable that seems like it would take some manpower to monitor a different website?

                  Brigading is when you have the wrong opinion in a place where they don't want to see it. Also reddit is all about free speech.

          I wonder if it's a poor attempt to coopt antifa sentiments into an easier to liberalize anti-"whatever the fuck we say is evil" form

          Doubt it'll catch on though lol, but seems like that might be the idea

        That is what they call when a post gets flagged by a bot for being potentially troublesome. Then a human has to approve the ban. Maybe reddit considers ChapoTr*phouse a slur against landlords.

          The name "Jessica Ashooh" probably either automatically triggers a human review, or autobans anyone who mentions it outside of a whitelisted set of "approved sources", and then they just quietly deal with the people who get banned "for no reason"

        Yes. For a while, reddit has done most of the website suspensions with a bot. A first, the bot checked after you got banned from a subreddit to see if you were evading another ban. Now they have changed it to autoban based on certain words as well. My hunch is the name "Jessica Ashooh" (and any other agent Power Words) triggers a Banhammer as well. Sleuths should keep an eye on people talking about bans for random articles, as they are probably stupid/lazy enough to have the ban accidently trigger if some article gets posted that involves somebody with the same name as an agent or if some agent's name is posted in an unrelated article.

        Also, Chapo itself (along with Citations Needed, TrueAnon, Cum Town, Red Scare, Street Fight, and the Trillbillies) is a CIA operation and part of the reason they nuked the subreddit is that the hosts hate the sub and vice versa.

            Will's grandpa was a rat/traitor in the 1950s. Brace was in Syria negotiating arms deals with the Kurds ("an American punk/drug addict who discovered Marx in rehab" is a laughably transparent cover story). Tom Sexton worked for the Clinton Foundation. Everyone else is friends they've met/recruited. Most of them use the same agent/manager (EDIT: Charles Reinhardt, former defense analyst for Canada, not James, Nick has let his name slip on Cum Town episodes) who I imagine is kind of like the mission overseer.

              The Citations Needed guy takes Rockerfeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, and MacArthur foundation money. His media/PR office also has a location in DC. While not connected to the Chapoverse, Robert Evans works for Bellingcat.

              Pretty much every popular podcast has ties to something. Except ol' Dave Anthony. He's just a screaming ball of rage surrounded by spooks.

                I mean like... Its not enough to judge the content of the shows?

                I don't feel anything particular subversive in the topics of Citations Needed for example. In fact it's very good, very well presented and digestable insight into relevant issues

                  Robert Evans is a spook because he works for a place that receives funding from the government. Nima works for a company that gets funding from obviously deep state organizations and works with them. You can't have it both ways.

              Will’s grandpa was a rat/traitor in the 1950s.

              Unless working with the FBI is hereditary I don't know what the implication of this is.

              Brace was in Syria negotiating arms deals with the Kurds (“an American punk/drug addict who discovered Marx in rehab” is a laughably transparent cover story).

              Maybe? Stranger things have happened.

              Tom Sexton worked for the Clinton Foundation.

              I don't know anything about this guy or Trillbillies tbh, but having worked for the Clinton foundation in the past doesn't mean anything. What did he do for them?

              Everyone else is friends they’ve met/recruited.

              A few vaguely suggestive statements about some people and everyone associated with them is a spook? That dog won't hunt. A professional network of cross promoters doesn't require proposing a government agency's involvement to explain.

              Most of them use the same agent/manager (James something I think, Nick has let his name slip on Cum Town episodes) who I imagine is kind of like the mission overseer.

              I can't find any information about this. What else do you know about it?

              I'm not saying that what you're asserting is impossible and I keep an open mind, but if this is a good summation of the "evidence" then I'm not at all convinced.

                That he has family connections to the Deep State! Yes, a lot of this shit is "hereditary" via nepotism.

                No, but the sudden rise to fame along with the things I mentioned earlier absolutely fucking glows in the dark. The media coverage around Brace in Syria and around Chapo when they launched is extremely suspicious and feels astroturfed
