Just saw this post today. It's pretty fucking suspicious, honestly, but it did give me an idea for a cool topic that's perfect for this kind of site. Specifically, I think social media is insanely susceptible to manipulation. And I know that we all know this. We're all big boys and girls. But how often do we actually notice it when it's in front of us?

I think the days of bots making accounts and spamming sites is (mostly) over, but in its wake, we have this sneaky asshattery. And honestly, I don't know what's worse. See, this is the kind of shit that Sanctuary has to compete against in the big wide world of the internet. I'm not gonna lie, I've actually been tempted to employ some of these darker but more effective methods of marketing, but I absolutely refuse to be just as bad as the competition when it comes to stuff like this. We will make it and we will make it without resorting to shady shit.

Sometimes the ends don't justify the means.

social media is not susceptible to manipulation. the consumers (specifically used that word) with weak minds and minimal ability to form their own coherent thoughts of social media are susceptible to manipulation.

this is all the jews fault.

no. really. kikes invented the subject known as 'propaganda' but repackaged and renamed it to 'advertising' to seem less ominous and foreboding...which is exactly what it is because its nothing more than manipulation and mind control. this is why the 'schools' dont teach anything other than how to be a good prole, follow the rules that the aristocracy lays out, and dont even think of trying to think without being told what youre going to think.

Hardly worse than "fashion", which makes people buy pricey, useless, made in China for $1, backed with unproved claims, trash because other people have it and they don't want to be seen as not capable of having the last trash too.
precisely. part of the base human emotional need to feel theyre a part of the group...to fit in...and to be accepted by the rest of the herd. its sad from the perspective of modern times, but this is a programmed instinct from a few hundred thousand years ago to ensure survival of the species...now being hijacked by the kikes as a means to peddle their filth and wring every last shekel out of the goyim.

its sad that only about two hundred years ago if a child of 14 or 15 left her bedroom showing any skin other than her arms...and this was during a hot summer...she would most expeditiously find herself in the village square wearing the nice comfortable stocks.

hell...it wasnt even a hundred years ago that if a woman exposed her ankles, even accidentally, or was seen smoking, she was considered a whore. the jews are to thank for that. seriously...a kike is the one that made it socially acceptable for a woman to smoke cigarettes.
