ATS was "loaded" with all sorts of people; men, women, young, old, many different 'categories.'
You do know that people can disagree with your UFO stories, or reject what you consider evidence, and NOT be "spinsters" or thought police, right?
While I have no particular love for "ATS ownership" the whole "hiring ****s" and agenda comment comes off as if you've got a personal "hurt" manifesting here.
I was a moderator on ATS too... are you accusing me of an "agenda" as well? Do you imagine I "went to meetings" to discuss "plans" or get direction on how to squelch the speech of the members? (PS... no one "hired" me.)
Or are you thinking it was all about you?
Thank you for teasing that out of the source material.
They have a "manually labelled list" ... the fact that a source is on that list means "it's fake." Doesn't that sound familiar?
The fact that "NewsGuard" is being cited as authority makes it less reliable, not more. Even marginally informed people like myself have read articles and or made threads about the "Newsguard" private enterprise and who uses it - and for what.
I offer an idea:
Profiteering, monetized, and unscroupulous operators can algortihmically assess the 'frame of mind' of any user by mathematically analyzing what they read online, what they post, and who they are linked to. The readily available "personal' information like voter roles, DMV data, "third-party data' all can be used to identify those 'users' most inclined and prone to react and share a certain kind of "editorialization."
We've all seen the "way" (particularly in monetized content) "media titles" and "content characterizations" of videos and articles are expressed to snag a user into clicking, or sharing. Article which flatly state things like "Scientists are hiding this,..." or "They are destroying our country!," or "Don't let them get away with this!," "They don't want us to know...!," and even "Share this before they remove it!"
Who is most likely to respond to that? Perhaps someone who is alarmed, who's opinion has been 'cultivated' by repeated and focused targetting via "algorithm."
Just a foolishly outlandish idea, I guess.

I dont hate ATS I loved ATS It explained much to me and was an invaluable resource. Especially SLED735 in the Paranormal Forum which was the shut down because it was too close to the truth. Then the Black Hats got control of all of ATS.

Also what Waterglass said would be true. It has a good chance.
There is plenty of misinformation online and in all platforms, not just ATS. There are many paid shills and you can easily spot them after sometime engaging with them. There are also people with strong personal convictions who cannot deviate from their dogma and argue until the end of times no matter the evidence presented.
For the rest of your post I say you.made me laugh.as what you said has been discussed extensively outside the ATS realm. It's coming from all directions as far as I know.
All I can write is that I dont ride with Satan nor am attemting to destroy the United States of America. Nor are you. God bless.
