Formerly, outreach posts were not allowed, because the main point of this sub has been investigation, we did not want to open the sub up to forum-sliding, and outreach is not included in the community-decided definition of the sub. However, since investigation seems to have declined significantly, and since we think a good portion of the community wants outreach posts, we are now allowing them. Note that Rule 4 still requires that all posts include some kind of link.

Hmmm, investigation has declined significantly. . . The reason could not be because everything of credible investigative substance is deleted is it????

Link is attached, and the is investigatory because the viability and credibility of the forum is in question by a well known member. But I appreciate you letting it stand as is.

Yeah, I wasn't saying anything about this post itself. I was just responding to VL's concerns, and letting people know we are allowing outreach/activism posts now (so long as they follow the rules).

So pretty much what needs to be done is we need a bunch of protesters on the streets with signs with pizzagate on them. So the news channels will hopefully have to pick this up and broadcast it state wide. Like the women's march. Make it about the children. Good civil parents will react to this like no other.

I think a more effective manner may be going very old school... Have a group coordinate on writing a 1 page well written, concise document that drives people to demand an investigation. Once this document has been readied it is shared here for everyone to get, print- and drop in every major city, suburbs, and rural areas on the same day, WORLD WIDE.... or at least nation wide. I don't see why it could not be done. We would all be sharing in the cost.

My initial reaction is no. The powers that be are ready to pounce on any group for any reason with their Black Bloc, etc people. Their aim is to wreak havoc, foment divisiveness and create division.

We'd get owned and used.

The community as a whole seems to strongly disagree with street protests, I can't believe the mods didn't shit this down for being general discussion, but I made several subs denouncing the protests which occured on March 18 and 25 respectively, but they went on with it anyways, my subs were mostly deleted minus this one

Did the victuras idea of an invited subgroup go anywhere?

I thought them [the street protests] a brave attempt to do something. Something MUST be done.

Makes me wonder why VL didn't just support a link on his thread before throwing the whole forum n under the bus, many comments and posts get deleted but I rarely see people crying fowl about a deletion who don't also get a chance for a submission discussing the deletion everyone should add their deleted comments to the archive deleted posts thread if there is real concern over censorship

I can't comment as to whether voat is compromised. I've had posts with links deleted regarding corrupt Judge's rapists sentencing, and posts without links regarding Gen Flynn's resignation get to stay. I definitely investigate less because unless arrests are going to happen, I don't need more convincing, and I'm not getting paid (selfish maybe), until people are arrested, there is no roi. As to what to do if arrest aren't going to happen? I don't know. I don't if protests would be enough to overhaul a corrupt worldwide system.

Upvoat, I agree, however I'm unsure if we have enough people for demonstrations at the moment. If we did, I think it's the natural thing to do.
