Nobody owns the trademark on the Awakening. This is bigger than any clique on the net, and it goes back to the beginning of the struggle between God and Evil. All the in-fighting, territorial behavior and efforts to control the momentum are just a screenshot of what’s going on in the world. (Past, Present, Future) This division slows us down.
Enough. If you all are going to act like a bunch of whiny children, we might as well shut down the whole movement and try again (if humanity lasts) in another 3 generations.
Mods and parties on both camps are clearly comprised, some outright and some by their own egoes. Solution: coordinate efforts. Keep each other honest. One new unit. We’re already awake. We need to get our shit together. WWG1WGA.

Couldn't agree more.....
But I do have to say I find the "Welcome to the Official GreatAwakening" Blurb on the side of this subverse somewhat triggering...who the fuck made this one more official than the one that is called /v/GreatAwakening?
I must have missed that memo

I agree, it’s very territorial.

Why did it take them till now? They knew the site they came from is compromised with censorship. They should have changed the name a bit since we already had the board. It would have been a nice courtesy. Now it looks like they came to shit on our shit. When in pig heaven it's best not to make waves in the mud.

I notice they took down the "Official" tag. It's a start.

Yes, I actually agree with this - I think one of the other mods wrote all of that. I removed it.

Excellent....now I can wwg1wga with no qualms! It's only a small thing but it kind of summed the whole episode up to me

Dont' worry nothing will be shut down, but it looks to me like people are generally moving to 8chan. I predict there will be a "home" of the movement, while these two subs here will be for discussions for voaters.

Missionary 101: Go to the people you want to reach and speak their language. I go to 8 Chan to learn, I go elsewhere to share. I will probably never post at 8 Chan.
[–] timurr 2 points 1 point 3 points (+3|-2) ago
Posting to 8ch isn't that difficult, anyway. I think it will happen organically, it's impossible to force people to stay somewhere. I just saw that lot of people ran away from voat, since they are probably not used to its culture. That's why I am guessing the main place will not be here.

Well shoot, negative nine. I must be over the target.

qmap.pub lists this one as the "official" replacement rather than v/GreatAwakening?
What is the name of the next 8chan board q will use? Thought I saw those listed in order somewhere. Should we make a v/ with that name for everyone to congregate or is this a limited hangout anyway and we better hope that a clean 8 chan board is ready soon?

Please pardon the stupid analogy, but having Boston AND Cambridge seems to work better than just having a bigger version of one or the other. I spend time in both - sometimes even going back and forth multiple times in the same day.

No worries, I like stupid analogies. They’re a little bit like sermon illustrations.
Boston and Cambridge - That’s all well and good for the enlightened. Imagine though if you were just born today. I wouldn’t feed you bread and butter from a plate. The kiddies can’t react the fruit with no ladder.

We are the audience yelling at the screen. Any one hear of the crystal skulls. People try to use them as crystal balls.
