(Thread) I joined twitter in 2015 to follow Fat Dan from ESPN boxing. The election was heating up and I started to take an interest in politics. I watched some molyneux vids and learned how the media had lied about Trump. I followed alot of maga accounts and a new world opened up
After awhile I saw that there was really no depth to these characters and kept digging and sorting through to find those people who offered up the unfiltered truth, rather than empty slogans. PizzaPartyBen/Milo were edgy, I followed them for awhile.
For those types the theory began and ended with Trump, no real analysis of what was happening to our society, and no solution beyond the "God Emperor". I found Ricky Vaughn persuasive, but sometimes a bit too rough around the edges. I wasn't ready for much of what he said.
Battle Beagle really appealed to me with his plain, facts only, nrx style, that showed graphically how race influences society. Everything clicked for me when I encountered John Rivers. Once I read his tweets there was no turning back
He not only described the way society had decayed, but most importantly he talked prescriptively about what should be done about it. From an information Warfare stance. He said "don't talk about black crime, talk about interracial crime, that will jolt people awake"
Every day I would get home after class and log on to learn more, to see just how deep the rabbit hole went. One day I logged in, checked my TL and saw JR hadn't tweeted. I went to his page, he was gone. Suspended. This was rare at the time so really caught be off guard.
He came back a few days later and the TL was on fire everyone boosting him, I replied to a few tweets welcoming him back and he followed me! I heeded his strategic advice, made infographics of interracial crime and began replying with them to news articles, debunking their lies.
He got suspended again. And each new account, would last less time than the one before it. Me and many others (AI, Blondie etc) were small but growing into our own, doing what we could to fight info war, interrupting the enemies lines of communication (propaganda) in real time
By that time I had become more fond of Ricky Vaughn and others but John Rivers was always the go to, "new info dropped, gotta get John's input on this". One night he told us all "if I get suspended again I'm not coming back".. I begged him to reconsider, he was too important
It wasn't long before he got suspended again. He stayed true to his word. That was 5 years ago. I vowed that so long as I was physically able I would stay on here and keep spreading information anyway I could.
I spent time outside of school (then job) reading theory and found new interesting people to learn from, Flintlox, Frogwave, Cursed, SomeFellow etc. I always kept my own attacking style, btfoing commies/libs and the media directly with facts and logic
This style of engaging meant constant shoahs. But I always remembered my vow that I would never stop, that anything was better than nothing, and if I could just wake up one person a day, that it would all be worth it, network effects would eventually take over and we'd revolt
Anyway. I've been doing this for 5 years now, day in and day out. Maybe it had little effect, i'll never know for sure, but it was all I knew how to do. And I wouldn't trade my time with all of you for anything in the world, I mean that.
Soon the time for info war on Twitter will be put to an end. I could go to gab. But there's many better men than me there, including John, that have been waiting to pick back up where they left off when the new refugees come flooding. When I'm suspended here, I won't be back. end
