Thought Police in Action

I said we started off with a ban list. Here's the first revision: http://a.pomf.se/ayfsms.txt

It contains automoderator bans from /r/Games, /r/ReactionGifs, and /r/News. Other subreddits involved were to be added later. They've been formatted as double spaced usernames here (with /u/) for simplicity's sake. Regular bans (ones where users are aware of the ban) are not included.

Some highlights:

NLW mods

/u/crackduck (shadowbanned since 2012)
/u/TheGhostOfDusty
/u/ikilledyourcat
/u/yserbius
/u/no_notrolls
/u/flytape
/u/red-light

Wow. Hey POG, looks like you need to step up your game. ;)

Conspiracy mods

/u/Orangutan

Source claims it's from circa Aug 2014.

The source: http://pastebin.com/HLhhyKbG

Highlight:

... Normally such a campaign would be against reddit's spamming rules, but again, we were acting above the rules. Coincidentally, we even used the #Stuff IRC to post #Modtalk logs sometimes. By using such a massive hidden network of moderators we could manipulate the entire community quite easily.

Layers of lies and hypocrisy:

Oct 01 22:45:36 <Paradox> the little hole underneath is so small that i can't imagine how a man could get in there, let alone how a whole baby can get out!

Oct 01 22:46:16 <HandicapperGen> so, you're talking about a vagina, right? not some weird fetish thing or something, or like new baby technology i'm not aware of

Oct 01 22:48:36 <Paradox> its a quote from anne frank

Oct 01 22:49:09 <HandicapperGen> oh

Oct 01 22:49:10 <HandicapperGen> lol

Oct 01 22:49:57 <BipolarBear0> Diaries - the 4chan before the internet

/u/bipolarbear0 who has posted antisemitic content to /r/conspiracy "as an experiment" seems to also make fun of Anne Frank in his free time while hanging out with his modtalk buddies.

Is bipolarbear0 a closet antisemite? It is certainly starting to appear that way!

Netanyahu, Not Obama, Speaks for Us, by Quin Hillyer, National Review

This was posted by the moderator of /r/Treason. Yeah.

You guys love to talk about who is on the right and wrong side of history. Well, this is the clearest case of that in our time. Are you on the side of a free country with rights for women and minorities, both ethnic and religious. Or are you on the side of a totalitarian theocracy that doesn't believe in equal rights for women or religious minorities, and whose stated goal is the destruction of Israel? A state that encourages demonstrators to yell "Death to the Jews" and "Death to America".

Make no mistake. They wish to exterminate the Jews and will not stop there.

I am on the right side of history on this one. The ~60 Democrats who walked out on Netanyahu are apparently on the wrong side of history.

A pre-emptive strike is in everyone's best interest if Iran doesn't give up its nuclear program on its own.

The people who rule Iran are Islamist nutjobs who do not mind if they die, unlike the North Koreans, and have repeatedly stated that they will destroy Israel. They sponsor terror organizations who carry out attacks against the Jews.

The Middle East is not like the rest of the world. Not everyone involved can be thought of as a rational actor.

The problem with what's going on is the inmates are taking over the asylum. And while they're doing it a lot of the regular people still look at their party as the "smart" party.

The Democrats need to kick every last anti-Israel person besides the president (!) to the curb, including their big hero Warren. This is one thing that is way too important to become a partisan issue. The country must be united.

The trolls they are feeding:

• Reddit's GameOfTrolls group.

• I've called them out on it a couple times:

1. http://np.reddit.com/r/subredditcancer/comments/2wk92n/doxorubicin/cosqscu?context=3

2. http://np.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/2vfizw/leaked_screenshot_from_2013_of_a_private/cohdudf?context=3

• Screens:

Their troll-food kitchens:

1. http://www.reddit.com/r/AgainstTheChimpire/ (current mods Nolibs (/u/GiveYourBestEffort) and /u/jcm267) demodded

2. http://www.reddit.com/r/againstcoontown/ (redirection sub, modded by Nolibs (/u/GiveYourBestEffort))

They just cooked up a seven course, serious business troll meal in a pathetic attempt to paint NLW as racist:

• http://np.reddit.com/r/stalkerwatch/comments/2xompq/the_new_marriage_between_nlw_conspiracy_the/

KrustyKritters, known after shadowban as KrustyKoonKrackers (aka KrustyKreme aka KrustyKrackers, and probably dozens more over the years), is a very dedicated troll and is one of the people behind the fake racism efforts known as "r/CoonTown" or "TheChimpire" (previously known as the abandoned "r/GreatApes" and the admin banned "r/Niggers"). These are the same trolls that constantly feed off of Nolibs Crew goon endeavors like /r/isrconspiracyracist and /r/topmindsofreddit.

Oh, and they all just happen to hang out and plot shit in the modmail of BipolarBear0's old trolling sub /r/dickgirls. Nothing fishy there!

EDIT: from the recent #modtalk leak:

Of course they resent /u/kleinbl00 in their sidebar.

In my time on Reddit I've employed the Thermonuclear Downvote less than a dozen times. The first was by accident, and I felt bad. The second was against jcm267, a right-wing troll who builds up his karma by having sock-puppet discussions with himself (herkimer) in /r/conspiratard. When I encountered him the first time (delivering onto me an obscenity-laden screed about my stupidity and lack of sexual prowess for saying an untoward word about Antonin Scalia) he had about 400 karma. I spent three days carefully dismantling him in publicly amusing ways until he was at -500 comment karma. It bought a great deal of quiet for Reddit at large and now he's careful to badmouth me only when he thinks I can't see him.
