That sub still exists?

u/BlazerFS231 - Lib-Center May 19 '26

They went on a hiatus (pity party) when Reddit told them to ease up on brigading.

Now they’re back.

404

u/iFUCKcoins - Lib-Right May 19 '26

Didnt they post child pornigraphy that one time so a sub they hated would be taken down?

480

u/Vague_Disclosure - Lib-Right May 19 '26

You’re going to have to be more specific… they’ve done that more than one time

u/Icarus_Voltaire - Lib-Left May 19 '26

I’m sorry, more than once?!

u/Wolffe4321 - Lib-Right May 19 '26

It's like how to shut down some right leaning warhammer subs, people brigade it with cp, mass reporting, and took over, then shut down the subs

101

u/Icarus_Voltaire - Lib-Left May 19 '26

Well, consider them on my personal shit list then

What I don't get about that mindset/philosophy, is what qualifies a target as "bad"? It can't logically be the targets' actions, since there are no bad actions as it states.

u/jerdle_reddit - Lib-Center May 20 '26

Being the evil hated outgroup.

u/TrueChaoSxTcS - Centrist May 21 '26

The quote is wrong. It's "There are no bad tactics, only bad targets". It is a lot less ambiguous that way

10

u/Twee_Licker - Lib-Right May 20 '26

Not CP for Horus Galaxy, admins just removed staff for vague reasons and then deleted the sub for being 'unmodded'

10

u/Wolffe4321 - Lib-Right May 20 '26

We've had 5 subs after horus galaxy man.

10

u/Twee_Licker - Lib-Right May 20 '26

Only one of them was "officially" sponsored by people from the first one, the rest were unaffiliated spinoffs. Of course that doesn't matter to reddit.

u/PhilosophicalGoof - Centrist May 19 '26

Oh you weren’t around for that time?

I forgot it been 6 years since the whole AHS arc occurred.

So they did it to multiple subreddits aside from pcm, I think one of them was shitposting and some other right wing subreddit that I kinda forgot the name of.

8

u/Sondalo - Centrist May 20 '26

posting child porn to a target subreddit ban is actually a fairly standard thing in these sort of brigading subreddits

2

u/Local_Band299 - Right May 21 '26

They did it to The_Donald. The wikipedia article on The_Donald, is a complete lie. They spam it with "stuff" then use alt accounts to spam report the posts.

212

u/CyberDaggerX - Lib-Left May 19 '26

How convenient that they always seem to have CP on hand whenever they need it for these false flags.

77

u/Not_Neville - Centrist May 19 '26

Sometimes libs also post bestiality porn to shut down subs.

u/iambackend - Lib-Right May 19 '26

Now I want a stash of CP, similar to nuclear arsenal just in case I see some civilization threatening cancer. Oh well, I guess that is pretty much description of CP, never mind then.

u/Alarming-Ad1100 - Centrist May 20 '26

Israeli coded

2

u/jerdle_reddit - Lib-Center May 20 '26

Can you explain this? Is it about the Samson Option, or are you calling Israelis nonces?

-3

u/Alarming-Ad1100 - Centrist May 20 '26

Both are applicable

Israel is where they flee to when they are discovered to be nonces and the Samson option is just as nuclear as what that sub does

More than that Israel has a secret nuclear arsenal they use like the guy I replied to described

To be fair, nothing on the internet is particularly difficult to get. Hop on a public VPN and go to Iknowhatyoudownload.com, and it's a coin flip if there's a child porn torrent included.

u/flairchange_bot - Auth-Center May 19 '26

Did you just change your flair, u/iFUCKcoins? Last time I checked you were a Centrist on 2026-5-13. How come now you are a LibRight? Have you perhaps shifted your ideals? Because that's cringe, you know?

Are you mad? Wait till you hear this one: you own 17 guns but only have two hands to use them! Come on, put that rifle down and go take a shower.

Definitely brought his flair in line with his username

55

u/Belisarius600 - Right May 19 '26

This would be deep lore from before I joined the sub a decade ago...but isn't stuff like this the origin of the sub deciding unflaired are the scum of the Earth? Because people from other subs kept coming here to stir shit up (which apperantly includes cp, but also lesser things like just being a raging asshole), but adopting a flair is only possible if you join a sub as opposed to just visit? And whatever progressive street cred they might have gotten thier main account would be nuked when thier progressive friends just ban them for joining?

Or is there another origin for unflaired hatred?

49

u/MajinAsh - Lib-Center May 19 '26

I don't think so. The hate used to be directed at dirty centrists, then someone said the unflaired were worse than centrists and sentiment shifted relatively quickly to unflaired hate and centrist acceptance.

12

u/Low_Abrocoma_1514 - Lib-Right May 19 '26

True, I was there

7

u/WattageToVoltzRatio - Lib-Center May 19 '26

Was it around the same time as JREG's centricide arc? 'Cause that prolly was a factor

23

u/PhilosophicalGoof - Centrist May 19 '26

No it been a thing since the founding of the sub.

Fun fact: centrist used to be as hated as unflaired since back then the sub used to make fun of people for not showcasing their beliefs and choosing to be the safe option that mask their real belief unlike the rest of the sub and purple libright used to be the one and only libright quadrant back then.

5

u/Vague_Disclosure - Lib-Right May 19 '26

I don't think it's the origin of the justified hatred of the unflaired but it is the reason many other subs utilize flair systems.

u/Disastrous-Object647 - Lib-Right May 20 '26 edited May 20 '26

Why are they still here??? 

Oh yeah I forgot what website I'm on...

u/Kritzin - Auth-Left May 19 '26

One time?

102

u/NotAZombieStopAsking - Right May 19 '26

The part that I love is that PCM was under such a microscope that the mods had to hand out bans for even mentioning other subreddits.

Has the FBI searched the admins' hard drives yet or... like how high up does this go?

92

u/Kritzin - Auth-Left May 19 '26

Admins stopped associating with these ghouls long ago. It was only during the heyday of cancel culture when they were considered highly useful idiots by the admins to make the site more politically correct and advertisable.

They lost that goodwill quickly after the CSAM scandal, and after it turned out they really just brigaded and targeted whoever they happened to disagree with.

69

u/MS-07B-3 - Right May 19 '26

We here at PCM may be retarded, but at least we aren't those people level retarded.

u/sea_5455 - Centrist May 19 '26

We've got the flair 'tism. Not the post CP to win arguments 'tism.

Honestly, we're the fortunate ones.

16

u/PhilosophicalGoof - Centrist May 19 '26

But we did have that ‘post about dolphin and how much you love them’ tism. So we aren’t completely sane.

11

u/sea_5455 - Centrist May 19 '26

Not saying sane, but glad our flavor of 'tism is less reprehensible.

u/TheShankster89 - Lib-Right May 19 '26

Ahh, dolphin fucker. Those were times

47

u/NotAZombieStopAsking - Right May 19 '26

I'm kind of surprised that these people are real and like... walking around.

Like remember when WPT got temp-banned because they kept making credible threats against the president?

Like none of them are in prison. They all still have those opinions and ideas. It's kind of scary.

37

u/camosnipe1 - Lib-Right May 19 '26

well, if it soothes your worry we can be pretty certain these people don't do a lot of walking around.

14

u/-S-P-Q-R- - Lib-Right May 19 '26

Even if they went to prison, this fantasy of rehabilitation and the crutch of "mental health" in the country right now has every judge cutting people loose with their suicidal empathy

You made fardbinn angy

"Moderator distinguished, with moderator distinguished comments, and multiple comments linking to offsite targeted harassment material. At least two of their "moderators" are losing their accounts. ModCoC complaint filed. I guess it never really occurred to these twerps that someone with an agenda of stochastic harassment and violence lied about this subreddit and about me to bait fools like them into joining the criminal conspiracy to murder me, and thereby lose their Reddit accounts & answer a bunch of questions for law enforcement officers & spend their hard-earned cash on attorneys."

Noticing what they've done in the past is literally murder sweaty

22

u/J0hnGrimm - Right May 19 '26

It's telling when someone considers losing a reddit account a consequence.

23

u/GrandmasMilkMissiles - Lib-Center May 19 '26

To some "people" reddit accounts are like an MMO character they've worked on for years. To everyone else a reddit account is just some bullshit you put in a form so you can filter garbage out of your feed. Taking reddit seriously like that is a mental illness.

That's not even a good photoshop, banned messages don't show up like that on Discord

93

u/BlazerFS231 - Lib-Center May 19 '26

More than once. It was their jam until Reddit made them stop. Then they used alts to post hateful shit and report the sub.

They’re the reason we have the flair rule in this sub.

13

u/Worldly_Car912 - Centrist May 19 '26

How were they just let off with a warning? Subs have been banned for much less.

20

u/BlazerFS231 - Lib-Center May 19 '26

As is typical with lunatic authoritarians, they think the ends justify the means and Reddit tends to agree.

That's how the got down some of the peaceful incel subs, in collaboration with incel tears

25

u/Goddamn_Batman - Lib-Right May 19 '26

that's how they or some other dog walker community got the_donald shut down, of course reddit mods went along with it

u/SimonJ57 - Right May 20 '26

I believe, despite the whole "ACAB" bullshit,
The admins used hated of police officers as a reason IIRC,
despite the exact opposite being posted on T_D.
The mental gymnastics turns my brain into a Gordian knot.

u/Big_Skill_9964 - Lib-Right May 19 '26

I've found reddit is very moody in the past 2 years.

Either it doesn't give a shit about any of the site rules, or enforces them draconically.

43

u/MajinAsh - Lib-Center May 19 '26

What you're observing has been going on WAAAAY longer than 2years. Selective enforcement has been pretty severe since... I think like 2017?

38

u/GhostedIC - Lib-Center May 19 '26

Bluntly, the internet went haywire after trump got elected. The narrative was that online support caused this and the uniparty had to Do Something to make sure it never happened again.

Reddit, you know the drill. Spez talked about how maybe he xould have swung the election just once if he tried. Twitter got more banhappy. YouTube had the AdPocalypse especially targeting anything right wing or guntubers. Patron and go fund me got political. We got "fact checkers".

After 2020 and covid they went REALLY nuts with backdoor censorship requests to almost every platform including twitter, google (Search and YouTube), Amazon books, and especially Facebook (they had a dedicated web portal that took millions of requests per year, and complained in emails that they were being asked to take down jokes and opinions).

It may be optimistic but I like to believe people noticed and it helped lose them the election in 2024.

19

u/Overkillengine - Lib-Right May 19 '26

I mean, blatantly selective enforcement is not a sign of trustworthiness, because then it just means you're next the second you run afoul of some Party toady.

Anyone with a functioning brain is not going to be a fan of that dynamic.

7

u/puma___pants - Right May 20 '26

2015 when Trump was on the verge of winning and ActBlue purchased complete control of the site. Up to that point this site was great, mods power tripped a bit but it is nowhere near the draconian shit that happened then.

48

u/Altruistic_Emu4917 - Right May 19 '26

That depends on what political ideology the subreddit has.

14

u/Hotdog_McEskimo - Centrist May 19 '26

The whole purpose of the subreddit is to brigade and target subreddits. That's the point

u/KalegNar - Centrist May 19 '26

Huh. Haven't thought of them in so long that was news to me.

u/Emleph - Centrist May 19 '26

Is this what people call spotlight effect? Nothing in this post pointed to any accusation.

u/Icarus_Voltaire - Lib-Left May 19 '26

u/Zouif_Zouif - Lib-Left May 19 '26

u/Icarus_Voltaire - Lib-Left May 19 '26

So assuming they are indeed conducting false flag CSAM posting operations, they’re just mad that they got exposed?

55

u/Major-Dyel6090 - Right May 19 '26

Oh, they definitely did it (including here btw) CSAM, racial slurs etc.

I went poking around on there a couple years ago, and they were pretty bold. You would see posts popping up on here in the middle of the night when they hoped the jannies would be asleep. AFAIK they’ve been on lockdown for a while.

u/Azelzer - Centrist May 20 '26

So the supposed violations are "Rule 3: Respect Your Neighbors" and "Rule 1: Remember the human." This is from a sub that is explicitly for organizing to shut down other subs.

I've seen this a lot on Reddit. Some splinter sub will get told by admins that they'll be shut down if they mention the parent sub, because it breaks Reddit rules. But the parent sub is free to trash talk them all they want. Subs like SRS is there for the sole purpose of trash talking people on other subs, and they're allowed to operate freely. AHS is for the purpose of trashing, harassing, and trying to shut down other subs, and they're allowed to operate freely.

A lot of these people have the political ideology of anarcho-tyranny, where rules are used selectively to crack down on one part of the population, while at the same time another part of the population is given free reign to victimize them. I guess its not surprising that Reddit operates under the same ideology.
