The Correct the Record whistle blower mentioned a reddit account of one of David Brock's employees. That account is a mod at /worldnews. ShareBlue runs that sub.

Thanks 4chan for confirming my suspicions.

4chan was the platform, not the source.

Sorry, it should have been "thanks anonymous user on 4chan for confirming my suspicions."

Much more credible that way.

It makes sense. I'm sure CtR makes them sign NDAs so what better way to post about them anonymously than on an anonymous board? He named names and gave details that checked out.

But you can be closed minded and shoot the messenger if you want to.

You see me as close minded, I see you as letting confirmation bias get the better of your common sense.

Ok then. I will agree to disagree with you on this.

You ignore the analysis posted by others confirming details. Stay sharp bro!

"Analysis"

Lol

Yup, that's the one. Last I looked at his post history, it was filled with ShareBlue links too.

Verify HERE. Look at Submissions by type and domain,

activity timeline, and activity by time of day.

He treats posting to reddit like a full time job. Largest contributor of posts?

Shareblue.com, over 250 posts from there as of 1/25/18.

Are you kidding? I stopped going there because I was tired of getting death threats and other garbage in my inbox.

Worldnews is more right then left

Compared to Europe/Canada/Australia, the US is very right wing. Even the democrats align more with the right compared to the these countries.

The reddit user base is mostly the US, followed by UK/Aussies/EU: https://www.statista.com/statistics/325144/reddit-global-active-user-distribution/

I suspect worldnews has a lot more international posters, but I couldn't find statistics. So a lot of it is just your perspective.

This is ShareBlues strategy. Pretend their far left agenda is centrist. The goal is to move the center left. Its a globalist effort. Beta males, less masculinity in sports, science as a religion, identity & gender politics. Everyone sees through the bullshit.

So... ShareBlue went and made all those countries more liberal in order to make the US left seem right? Is that the theory you are going with? Because you can't deny that those countries are to the left of us.

So you're saying we should be lobsters.

I for one, welcome our new lobster overlords! 🦀

Share blue isn't far left at all. They don't even really have a political ideology, they're just anti-Trump and anti-Republican. David Brock is just a hitman for hire, he doesn't really care what side he's on.

Being anti conservative puts them on the left side of the political spectrum. They pushed for identity and gender politics, ANIFTA and often sided against constitutional rights. They would certainly take neoconservative stances when their political party supported it. However those instances were rare.

Please link me one single share blue article that talks about antifa.

Don't get me wrong, Shareblue is absolutely a garbage source. But if you think they're "far left" you need to look up a political compass.

But actually, it's good. Keep calling mainstream liberal positions far left, socialist, communist. It takes away the boogeyman power of those words.

I'm a liberal. Keep blending the lines of progressive left with liberalism and you will destroy what is left of the democratic party.

CTR aka Shareblue have 2 operations. Social media shilling for agenda items (never let a crisis go to waste) and producing content. You seem to overlook the shilling operation. They don't just push their content. They push opinions. Read their playbooks.

Let me guess - their "playbooks" come from 4chan posts

Liar

Identity and gender politics are not pushed by the right? The GOP have defined themselves as the party of the christian white male. Just look at their representatives.

I would say they are slight left, but extremely sensationalist - to the point that even though I agree with them, I can’t stand them.

Share Blue's entire purpose is to bolster Democratic candidates and disrupt and divide right wing support. They are entirely a machine for the left and defined by their DNC ties.

https://archive.org/details/337535680FullDavidBrockConfidentialMemoOnFightingTrump

Most democrats aren't even on "the left." They're center, GOP is far right.

Hahahaha okay.

Electoral colleges don't really have a place on a political spectrum, but nice try.

IKR How dare the only party to win the popular vote but loose the election in recent memory be opposed to the system they rightfully feel has stolen elections from them. Especially since, except for a reelection in 2004, it's the only way they've lost a presidential election since 1990. Oh, and the fact that the last time it happened the scumbags on the other side got to steal a Supreme Court nomination. That's so fucking extreme.

Pretend their far left agenda is centrist.

I genuinely can't comprehend how someone who has any understanding of international politics can think that Shareblue, which people treat as synonymous with Hillary Clinton, is far left. It genuinely boggles my mind.

The Clinton's are notorious for taking the already-not-very-left American Left and bringing it to the center and further aligned with the right.

Anyone who thinks that Hillary Clinton, and thus Shareblue, is somehow far left obviously has no understanding of what words like left and right mean, especially outside of America.

They are secret communists!!

Are you serious? American leftys are the biggest snowflakes on planet earth

Do you know what a non sequitur is?

Says someone who can't even spell or punctuate a sentence properly. American right wingers are pure evil, motivated by war, profit, and their false religion. You are just another sad brainwashed fool, it seems.

You are both so goddamn wrong. Both the self-proclaimed left and the right are stupid pieces of shit motivated by greed. So shut the fuck up with this constant bullshit that "your side is evil but my side is good!"

....you need to educate yourself

On top of this, Reddit users in general tend to be younger and more educated than the average, which both correlate with being more left wing.

Who cares? You should embrace people with different ideas. i'm a liberal who loves conversing with conservatives. Too bad all the conservative subs here are ban happy af

imho, both sides are guilty of being complete asshats unwilling to talk at all. Theres no discussion, just people being angry about "the other side".

I mean, I would count myself as a Liberal politically. But for some strange reason i feel a great pull to the conservative side due to the way i feel "the left" has just switched sides on some really imporant issues that i hold close to heart..

Theres no way to talk about this though. I just have to duck and cover, regardless if the shots come from "angry leftists" or "angry conservatives"...

Divide and conquer... right?

The biggest difference between both sides on reddit is conservatives can post on liberal dominated sub reddits like /r/politics and /r/worldnews (according to OP), but a liberal can't post on the big conservative sub reddits at all without being banned /r/conservative and /r/the_donald being the best examples

What are some important issues "The Left" switched on that made you lean conservative?

You don't find it funny and weird how you compare Politics and Worldnews with TD and Conservative? The first two are supposed to be neutral and unbiased. The other two have their political leanings in the name.

slowly inched towards believing we should censor hate / offensive speech

calling literally everything that goes against their views racist, islamaphobic, etc

forcing trans ideology forcefully onto society and demanding that people simply accept that women have penises and will share a locker room with your kid and if you object you are a bigot

I'm super pro choice but the left's talking points talking about a growing baby as clumps of cells is really counter productive

journalism is statistically proven to favor the left because mst journalists tend to be democrats. There has been a total destruction of ethical reporting over the last 2 years. It's really quite bad. Super charged words in articles labeled as news that should be in the opinion section is basically the norm now.

The left's odd embrace of all things islam while still finding it perfectly acceptable to consistently mock christians (I am not religious but i find it a bit alarming)

liberals have a desire for forced diversity that i believe is bad for general progress. I do not want women being promoted or put in power for being women. I want the very best women to fight their way there to prevent terrible women from encouraging an idea that women are inferior in certain roles

liberals are encouraging racial division and normalizing hostility against white people, particularly white men. This is harmful for obvious reasons butmostly I fear that it persuades people away from investing energy in self improvement and action to deal with their issues in life and towards focusing on a point of blame that absolves them of any responsibility for or agency in their lives

immigration - the left was not always so accepting of wide open borders. liberals are inching towards putting the rights of illegal aliens ahead of citizens - that is not how a republic functions. We can not properly prepare and plan a society if we do not know who is living in it using resources, spending money, committing crimes etc

Voter ID laws - it's insane to call this racist. If black people can not obtain an ID they need to stop voting democrat bc that shit is fucked up. Similarly, I'm annoyed by the idea that it is the duty of the state to make it as easy as possible to vote. In order for a republic to thrive and the rights of citizens to exist, the participants must take their responsibilities seriously. Using cash lotteries and seeking people out to vote seems counter intuitive to me. People who have no interest in participating in government are likely to be ignorant voters easily swayed by the people making it easy to vote. I do not see that as a good thing. People who vote because they understand the role their decisions has on the republic today and in the future, in my opinion, will vote in a way that is beneficial for all.

Trump - the left has become delusional with this guy, it's like the whole party has become the Tea Party of the left and it's a bit blinding and causing people to become (or at least sound) really fucking stupid.

FISA abuses - I'm anti Fthe FISC as a general rule. However, in my younger days, I was firmly planted on the left in large part because the party seemed adamantly opposed to the Bush admins overuse and abuse of surveillance on citizens. Obama really disappointed me by his expansion of and abuse of things I already saw as violations. I find myself ideologically aligned with Rand Paul pretty closely on this issue.

Dude you don't sound liberal/leftist at all. You sound like a closet, deep red conservative masquerading/concern trolling as a liberal.

No offense, but i don't see how anyone who was ever a leftist or liberal/progressive within the last 40 years would ever use your right wing talking points to describe liberal positions.

It's not uncommon for people to become more conservative as they grow up. The biggest reason I started to move right was consistently being disappointed by politicians stealing and wasting money meant for programs I supported enthusiastically that are intended to help the poor and needy.

I was a literal moveon.org person who financially supported PP, protested GWB and had all the bumper stickers and everything.

You on the other hand sound exactly like a modern liberal by making a comment with zero substance to support the argument you are making.

I've become more conservative as i've gotten older. I just don't use conservative/right wing talking points to describe my opposition to my former beliefs.

You missed the forest for the trees, I think. You're not quite getting it

forcing trans ideology forcefully onto society and demanding that people simply accept that women have penises and will share a locker room with your kid and if you object you are a bigot

Just noticed this line. When did a trans person break into your home and hold you at knife-point until you accept the fact they exist?

Never, when did I claim that they did. I also didn't claim that trans people were forcing anything, I am referring to "the left" in general.

I am mainly concerned with the increasing desire to suppress dissenting opinions and a desire to criminalize speech. It's fairly fundamental part of liberalism to champion freedom of speech. It's mainly liberals that I see supporting the ideas that are essentially suppression of speech they find hurtful or offensive.

And the way you are phrasing that actually proves my point. The whole adoption of using terms like existence and violence to describe people who have an opinion on anything related to transgender people is extremely alarming. I do not deny anyone's existence. I resent the fact that discussion surrounding changing laws, regulations, and definitions and a desire to compel certain speech and criminalize others is increasingly censored.

I know you exist, I see you and I can touch you and have no issue calling a trans woman a woman. I do certainly take issue when nasty trans women tell me to suck their dick but lots of cis women piss me straight off too. What I can not tolerate is you equating someone's refusal to call a person a woman as denying their existence. I'm a cis female. There is nothing that someone else can confirm or deny about me that calls my existence into question.

Same with violence. It's not used in a context that is intended to communicate a strong emotion like a violent reaction. I often see it written as "literal violence."

These are my issues and to be clear, as of yet, no trans person has broken into my home. If one did, I'd be happy to serve them a drink and see if they wanted to rewatch the marvelous mrs maisel with me.

Just did a Google search on something random and saw this thread, your posts on here have put into words down to a key the kind of stuff that's been pissing me off lately. You made good points in a non-hostile way and ofcourse someone comes at you calling you out for making a fallacy even though their comment is also a fallacy. It seems like people don't realize that calling someone out for making a fallacy only when they disagree with your opinion is the definition of a strawman.

Being from the nordic countries, my "left and right" aren't really your "left and right".

We have something.. or well.. something talked about often called a "Opinion corridor". Its supposed to represent a long corridor with different rooms you can enter and talk about certain things. One door has "immigration" one has "cultural identity". And the likes.

One thing that has happened is that most of these doors have been figuratively locked. Talking about Immigration is racist. Talking about your own cultural identity (aka 'muh white people') is racist, maybe even fascist. Talking about #MeToo out of the aspect of males that doesn't contain the phrase "Im sorry for being male".

The thing about "the left". Is the systematic shutdown of free speech. I was like that when i was 13-14. Thought punching people who thought "wrong" was ok. But as i grew up, i grew fond of the saying "I might not agree with what you say. But i will fight to the death to support your right to say it". And it constantly rings true for me.

I want, as a liberal person, you might even call me a socialist. To be able to talk about anything and everything. And not feel ashamed or accused of "wrong think" because the topic is sensitive or it "hurts feelings". Hell, i've got loads of baggage i feel i cant talk about, because the subject matter is simply "wrong".

I feel, that we've moved away from "everyone is equal, no one is better than anyone", completely. And it damn sucks.

Highly respect what you're saying here. Makes a lot of sense

there is a huge difference between a sub that is literally named as conservative or liberal being partisan than a formerly default sub that is put forth as the worldnews sub.

So, basically, you think how a sub is named means they have to affirmative action your opinions in?

But not your conservative subs "cuz thats our safe space".

Agree or disagree with it, people who make those boards have a right to run them as they see fit.

The liberal ones are very ban happy too, trust me.

Worldnews is known for being more right then left.

News flash, most of the modern world is pretty liberal and basically every country outside of Russia and China think Trump is a complete joke. So youre not gonna see a lot of love for him on world news.

China, Russia and the US are the only real world powerplayers. No one cares what the EU has to say.

The EU cares. So do a lot of Americans. So sorry man, world news doesn't like Trump.

Explains why they are in a self-destructive echo chamber.

Some times people have genuine opinions. You should get used to that.

Nah between the media and all the leftists propaganda determined to find fault with anything Republican related it is near impossible to listen to it without a roll of the eyes

Yeah you're not gonna like the rest of the world if you're a huge American conservative. The rest of the world doesn't agree with you.

Neither does much of reality.

We all live in reality big guy. People have different opinions. It's a cute jab bit it's meaningless.

Uh huh, the Earth is 6000 years old and climate change can't be real if it's snowing in Denver! The frogs are gay cuz they let Caitlyn Jenner into a woman's bathroom in Target and giving rich people more money while cutting your social safety net magically raises poor people out of poverty! Yeah!

Wait what? I agree with you on all those things.

And? Who gives a shit? Seriously, you may be too dull to see it but "politics" in Reddit is just a bunch of monkeys (the right and the left) talking about something that is way above them. Seriously, do you think that you have any power? Do you think that world leader give a shit about what you think? No, so you and your opinions can just fuck off. Go ahead, be an SJW or a fascist for all I care, you're just building your sense of grandeur even though no one gives a shit about what you have to say. "The rest of the world doesn't agree with you" Great, it really affects my life if some libtard in her mom's basement

Also, the other guy is right, no one cares especially if it comes from tiny ass European countries.

I really appreciate that you try your best to find the best thing about republicans given the massive amount of shit that they do. It is commendable, but you are living in that fox news universe, it's not real.

You sound butthurt there buddy

Just because someone has power doesn't mean that they're right. The reason most conspiracies exist these days is that they're perpetuated by people in power who are above the law... by respecting their power, you're giving them more ability to conspire against you.

The OP seems to care enough to make a post about it

The EU operates as a single market in major trade deals and they have a higher gdp than anyone. Try again

Not the US. Nice try.

Sorry, not sorry. http://static1.businessinsider.com/image/5592e2236da811de0e37e6bb-1200-900/cotd-eu-us-china-india-gdp-ppp.png

You are also forgetting large part (certainly over 50%) of USA residents

Despite every poll and the election results saying that clearly isn't true. Trump's supporters are more passionate, but there definitely aren't more of them than opponents.

Correct The Record, Media Matters, Share Blue.

I don't know but I wish people would stop posting not really important local shit on it. 'five injured by firework in some australian town' was one I saw on it last night.

Because Shareblue bought subreddits like /r/politics /r/worldnews and is probably behind 90% of antiTrump subs. Reddit was desperate to make a profit and likely sold certain subs to highest bidder to become propaganda machines.

So you basically believe that only 10% of the anti-Trump (or even just not pro-Trump) content on Reddit is fake? Really?

They banned me and accused me of being a Bigot

They have control of the mods. Lefty's love the mob mentality and narcissists love to congregate.

I'm guessing you missed the r/conservative thing yesterday and the entire td subreddit?

I missed nothing. They are talking about r/worldnews now. Quit trying to go off script.

"Lefty's love mob mentality"

This right leaning sub banning all dissent is irrelevant.

Just say people love mob mentality or stop being a partisan fuck.

If you're upset about Trump posts you can just filter them out.

Bernie can still win.

It's far right. Very pro-Russia

You get banned fairly easily if you have an opinion that doesn't align with liberalism or whatever wacky thing they have transformed liberalism into these days anyway...so it's super filtered to only allow left wing conversation

It's one of the many subs that the establishment locked down in the effort to pass TPP.

That sub is probably getting overrun by the shills now. It’s got really bad

All media is liberal as fuck

Because the entirety of reddit is heavily controlled. Powermods take over control of every subreddit they can get their hands on to make sure the narratives are suitable for advertisers, and for the people who pay them.

First, consider that the tech sphere as a whole has tended to be fairly Left-leaning. Just going off of general trends. Throw in a bit of pack mentality and confirmation bias, and since a lot of people's exposure to the internet started with Leftist values, they tend to keep those values, and then in turn pas them on to others. Now look at the number of Left-leaning news outlets compared to Right-leaning ones. So you have people with an overall trend toward a Leftist perspective, getting information from predominantly Left-leaning sources, on a subject matter where people tend to draw strong battle lines and compartmentalise.

So there's your answer.

Censorship. It's the only way leftist ideology can thrive.

There is no source for news that isn't biased. Only thing you can do is read a news story and verify it the best you can. Unless Trump Russia is in the headline, you can safely ignore that. I've clicked on 10,000 of those articles and have yet to see a shred of evidence, it's like buzzfeed clickbait at this point.

Don't trust a single news story, ever, until you can absolutely verify it's authenticity. We have been lied to way too many times to trust the MSM, no matter if they lean left or right, they all lie too much.

r/worldnews has a zionist shill at the reigns.

Talk about anti-Zionist points in an Israeli shill-post, and see how fast you are banned.

Social media in general is run by left wing progressives that follow groupthink. Companies like Google and Twitter discriminate against conservative employees, and they alert their staff when right wing people are visiting their premises. I'm a centrist so I'm not shilling for either side, but the groupthink and discriminating people based on political affiliation is some 1984 shit. It's only going to going to get worse now people are self censoring themselves because of political correctness. 4 of the major websites, Google, Facebook, Twitter and Reddit are all left wing, which is fine because it's a free market and people don't have to use them. The problem is the blatant censorship of opposing views and opinions of people that use them who aren't left wing. The main issue I see on Reddit is abusive admins who have a bias. With Google/Youtube, Facebook and Twitter it's the echo chamber problem, people are just having their biases reaffirmed. All the sites should remove upvotes and allow for more anonymity for those that want it so we can cut down on the virtue signalling. We would get a more honest reflection of society too if people can speak their mind without fear of being labeled a bigot, racist, sexist etc. I don't want some cesspit social media with true racist views about things like skin colour, I just want to be able to discuss ideologies, but some seem to be off limits.

As an impartial, genuinely... I will get hate from everyone for being that way.

Reddits upvote/downvote system rewards one way of thinking more than multiple opinions or any kind of critical thought. I think the term circle jerk is really appropriate when describing some of the behaviour seen.

To expand on that, if you dont toe the line in reddit you get caked in either negative counter arguments that dont really go anywhere because most of the time its just someone vomiting up something they read earlier but didnt really think deeply about, or simply just get hated on.

I feel at one point this method struck at ideals that genuinely harmed or caused grief like homophobia or racism. But over this time has become quite polarised and in an ironical way has become what it wanted to get rid of.

It has not happend yet but slowly you can see how a right wing opinion is being shamed and pinned to extremes, without really seeing that there are more extreme leftists.

TLDR- The whole system is massively polarised and no one knows for certain what is true anymore because Critical Thinking was not taught on an international level, but why should reddit care... Its almost authoritarian.

Leftist ideology plays into the hand of the elite billionaire globalists who want a one-world government, which would mean complete totalitarianism and control.

Conservative ideology is very critical of a large Federal government and tends to lean towards nationalism; and these ideas threaten the plans of these elite embracers of a New World Order. Conservative ideology also tends to support traditional family values, for instance that there are only two genders: male or female. This also threatens the globalists because there are already too many people on the planet. They want to reduce the population drastically. A convenient way to achieve this goal over a short span of a few centuries would be to break the traditional family structure so that less people are reproducing (this happens through a multitude of facets: feminism, homosexuality, a diminishing of he role of the mother in the family, and by keeping wages just low enough that both parents in a household have to work full-time to in order to barely scrape by). But I digress.

In short, yes. World Politics is definitely being censored. And it leans very, very hard left because leftist ideology happens to be the perfect farce to trick people into accepting a one world government. All I can say is these people don’t give a shit about us. They are out for themselves and they think they’re really fucking clever. We are on to them now, thanks to some very courageous heroes that have risked their lives and well-being so that we might be able to know the truth.

Bingo

IMHO a worldwide consipracy exists to push left wing ideals around the world to further the centralization of world power under one overarching power structure.
Trump is the anti-thesis of this "conspiracy".

You can hate him, or you can love him, but if you think your voice doesn't matter now imagine how it will matter in a one world government.

It's probably just YOU being rightwing that makes you think /worldnews is left news. I don't mean that as an insult and I'm not messing with you. I think it's just perspective.

I missed nothing. They are talking about r/worldnews now. Quit trying to go off script.

The EU cares. So do a lot of Americans. So sorry man, world news doesn't like Trump.

Just because someone has power doesn't mean that they're right. The reason most conspiracies exist these days is that they're perpetuated by people in power who are above the law... by respecting their power, you're giving them more ability to conspire against you.
