My guess has been that the lurkers here are interested in learning the truth about topics that are taboo in the corporate media, but they are afraid that they will be "outed" at some future point (an eventuality that is not unlikely) and so embrace discretion as the better part, or at least the easier part, of valor.

You’re absolutely right. I’ve exposed my IP and even shown my true face elsewhere. Nothing negative has happened. I’m out there and fighting for a better world, feels good man

I got ya! sharing is what it's all about . we have been down some rabbit holes!

That's good to hear! I lurk elsewhere 100%. I have tried to participate here when I have time and relevant information or thoughts.

I tell people not to underestimate their reach because those of us who lurk are still part of the process. We may not post but we will talk to people, and maybe connect dogs from other sources. It's a balance between free speech, anonymity, and sometimes just using the tech or format, and even learning how culture and context work in some forums... At least for me.

I don't believe you. Expose your credit card number and social security number, then I'll believe it.

Better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

I'll speak when I have something good to say whether it's good to say it or not.

Say some dumb shit, you are amongst friends

No need, there are plenty here that will say dumb shit for me and far more that will say dumb shit for themselves.

I'm like this in real life too. For years about half of the people in my small little town thought I was retarded because they had never heard me speak. The other half that had think I'm a complete asshole because I don't validate their opinions.

Then they find out who my wife is. She is an asshole. The rare alpha female that not only thinks she is right most of the time but, actually is, and can back it up.

Almost nobody likes us, a few hate us but, nobody fucks with us (anymore) and that's how we like it.

Omg what an awesome honest description!
How did the two of you meet?
People used to say dumb shit to me just to get my reaction because I was so black and white, and would say what I thought. I like this community because I think a lot of us are like that. We aren't going to process info through the veil of "culture" that media have us, we still have some processing skills grounded in real world observations. I'm sorry we end up odd ducks in our communities, but glad we have one here, even if it's under the common culture lingo of 17.

the truth is controversial.

Poal is better than voat.

100% agree

I liked voat, but am amazed that there was another place so similar to come to! I don't float around the internet to find boards like this. I used to love the old Yahoo chat rooms. I wish I had saved more offline from voat. I thought there was a lot of good info floating around at that time. There was a lot of discovery and correlation, and now we are seeing slow moving aftermath.

Am I a lurker or just a quiet type? Hard to tell.

[–] 2 pts

Nah, you just only want to post high quality shit, it takes time.

[–] 2 pts (edited )

Go fuck your self you nigger faggot, I will lurk in peace... Oops guess not. Lol jk of course

Edit: if I'm being honest the initial fear to post was the risk of any of these sites being honeypots to round us up but then I said fuck it who cares.

[–] 2 pts

Fuck you nigger! I'll lurk here like all I like.

Unfortunately majority of you cunts are different time zones so I'm always late to the party.

Or extremely early

I am in that boat. I just catch up in the mornings and evenings when I can.

A lot of GAW lurk here, it's a great alternative when you don't feel like wading thru all the recycled meme's and stickies. Quality over quantity.

[–] 0 pt

Nah, I work with those guys and they'd never lurk here.
