Shilldar

Dispelling Disinformation tactics
Shilldar development and fine tuning thread.
Before we get down to the list of strategies, the following needs fo be said:
As seen in the fringe insurgency report we are growing stronger, smarter, expanding our reach into each corner of the world and society. They are most afraid of us working together. On that subject:
It's good we have many different movements.
A single uniform one would be easily controled and stopped. But the diversification also means that each person can contribute in their own capacity this way.
You need both soft organizations and you need hit squads
Creating memetics is as invaluable as the person creating irl presence and as the guy who is a soldier and is prepared to fight for the cause.
Sinergy is key.

Methods applied to stop us from achieving that are:
1) CHARACTER ASSASSINATION – (Psychological Warfare – discredit, distract, intimidate, frustrate, divide & conquer) – Disinformation shills (trolls) attack the character of leaders in a movement to discredit them, thus discrediting the movement. A main character assassination tactic is to highlight any negative or perceived flaw of an otherwise reputable person, whether true or false, to discredit him/her in an attempt to invalidate their viewpoint and make it appear baseless, for the sole purpose of detracting focus from the information they are sharing. Trolls often “make stuff up” if they can’t find anything real to highlight for this goal, after all, shills are paid liars. Trolls are hired to make leading or inflammatory comments for the sole purpose of baiting their targets to create a “controversial debate” where none truly exists. They often resort to the “Trojan Horse” tactic to elicit an emotional response from their targets, frustrate, and evoke hostility with the intent of twisting it around to make the person look volatile, a classic “character assassination” tactic to discredit people, making them appear weak and unstable. Trolls frequently provoke people into a heated argument, and sometimes will go so far as to “report” them as being a “threat” to get them kicked off the forum. Another trick these liars are taught to do is to use semantics to twist people’s words around and make it seem as though they’ve lied, to discredit them and works hand in hand with the Straw Man tactic. These are all character assassination attempts that you will easily recognize happening in social media forums once you become familiar with these tactics.

2) DEMANDING IMPOSSIBLE PROOF – The most common tactic used by online trolls is to “demand evidence”, then ignore it when it’s presented and continue to demand proof that is impossible for anyone to obtain. Regardless of credible data presented by their targets in public forums, trolls repeatedly deem it as “irrelevant” and continue to demand unattainable proof. The purpose of which, is to dismiss any and all legitimate information (actual evidence), found by those take the time to do real research beyond the disinformation site links, and to distract from the fact the trolls fail to present any credible information themselves. It also keeps their targets scurrying and frustrated, giving trolls the illusion of having the upper hand. Often, disinformation shills pose as a supporter of the truth, or “friendly folks on the fence” politely asking questions, in a sly attempt to later discredit the movement. Trolls posing as friendly allies will post long, incoherent diatribes on fake blogs & articles, or inflammatory comments, for the purpose of associating the movement with insanity. Other times they will act as “the voice of reason” to make it appear as though any presented data isn’t strong enough, and they offer to play “devil’s advocate” to “help” the movement, with the goal of rendering any and all data as invalid regardless of how legitimate the source; perpetuate doubt, and discredit the movement.

3) DOMINATE THE THREAD – Trolls interject themselves into productive web discussions in order to make themselves appear credible as though they have a “real” argument, where none actually exists. Their job is to create controversy and instigate a “debate” by pretending to be “a regular person with an opposing opinion participating in normal discourse“, when in fact, they are paid shills that get compensated to scour the net and attack awareness videos on youtube, blogs, articles, public facebook pages, and other social media forums; they also brainwash their followers to do their bidding, using “chemtrails” as their Manchurian Candidate trigger word. Trolls often post links from metaxxxx or conxxxxxscience regurgitating the generic science of how normal contrails are formed, inapplicable to weather modification and climate engineering activity. They try to lure people to those disinformation sites to attempt to convince them that the persistent, spreading streaks we observe in the sky are “normal contrails”, yet they dismiss any additional information on climate engineering with verifiable references found on scholar databases. Another tactic is to claim that to advocate against toxic climate engineering is somehow “taking away from more important issues” like cutting C02 emissions, when ironically, it’s the SAME cause, and if we connect the dots, it trails back to big biotech, oil, gas & coal funding climate engineering. The trolls relentlessly keep commenting on threads to dominate the discussion with the intent to keep their comments at the very top. They also vote their comments up and their target’s comments down, (if the forum offers that feature). This is evident when you become familiar with their methods. I have yet to see a disinformation shill post a reputable link, or any link, other than from those two disinformation sites or some equally generic source lacking verifiable references, or that pertains to what we observe happening in many regions of our globe. They intentionally divert attention away from credible documentation, dismissing it without due diligence. They often regurgitate harassing insults (especially on youtube), and repeat generic jargon about how water vapor condensation trails are formed, which has nothing to do with the persistent, spreading, lingering trails we observe covering & whitening the sky, blocking the sun, that is being done as scientific research, “field experiments”, the prelude to officially implementing global climate engineering programs.

4) PRE-WRITTEN SCRIPTED RESPONSES – (cut & paste comments): Trolls are supplied with a list or database of preplanned talking points in a boilerplate format designed as offensive maneuvers and deceptive comments to create an argument for the sole purpose of deflecting from the truth because that is what they have been recruited to do. Geoengineering “chemtrail debunker” trolls are notorious for this, and note they never actually “debunk” anything. All they do is deflect from reality and try to CAST DOUBT and keep the “denial” tactic going so the profiteers of climate engineering and weather control can continue to suppress public outcry in order to continue aerial spraying of heavy metals and toxic chemicals into our global atmosphere, jeopardizing our health and future sustainability of the planet, and prevent us from uniting to take appropriate legal action to stop this blatant crime against humanity. If you pay close attention and track the trolls, you will see that they repetitively post routine boilerplate comments all over social media forums.

5) FALSE ASSOCIATION – The goal of “false association” is to associate supporters of the movement with negative labels such as “paranoid conspiracy theorist” or “anti-science” to make their targets appear crazy or ignorant, and ultimately discredit the movement. Trolls deliberately associate the movement with far fetched concepts like “big foot”, aliens, “moon hoax”, false flag conspiracies, etc., because of the associated negative connotations. The goal is to create biases and dissuade people from objectively examining credible information presented. This works hand in hand with #1 (character assassination), and the “Trojan Horse” troll (sidetrack opponents with name calling and ridicule, engaging them in a hostile argument to try to discredit them, also known as the “attack the messenger” ploy). Online trolls often call their targets derogatory names such as “chemtard”, “conspiratard”, “chemnut”, “ignorant”, or “liar”, attempting to invalidate anything they say regardless of the truth of it. Trolls often attempt to make it appear that their targeted group incites violence (tying in with character assassination). Trolls will post hostile comments such as “let’s shoot down those planes” on public forums such as Skyder Alert by pretending to be a supporter for the sole purpose of discrediting a peaceful movement.

Or you could just read the fucking sticky and lurk for 2 more years before posting.

6) FALSE MODERATION – The disinformation tactic of pretending to be the “voice of reason” in an attempt to move people away from what is clearly true, into the murky waters of “doubt” where the truth becomes “relative.” And, when that inevitably fails, they resort to antagonizing and goading people with insults, name calling, and bullying. They routinely chide and taunt people to harass them into emotional responses with the goal of making them look foolish or unstable in an attempt to deflect focus from their point and invalidate any credible data they may be presenting. Do not let them engage you in an argument and provoke you into hostility, because it is a deliberate move to discredit you. Refuse to take the bait.

7) STRAW MAN and “AD HOMINEM” ARGUMENTS – A common tactic is that the troll will accuse his opposition of subscribing to an obscure point of view, then attack that point of view (Straw Man). Trolls fabricate a “perspective” and then rebut it, regardless of the fact that his target never made any such comment. Trolls frequently use the Straw Man tactic, for example: “you’re a polluter and pro-fossil fuel, because all of your talk about climate engineering is taking attention away from the real problem of C02 emissions“. This is the kicker, it’s safe to say that humanity unanimously agrees we must end our dependency on fossil fuels and implement clean, sustainable technology for the future (that’s why there is a movement against climate engineering, “spraying pollution to solve pollution” is insanity), but the minute we state this in a reply we have “taken the bait” because the troll immediately shifts gears and attacks making it obvious it was a tactic to engage us in a fictitious debate to deflect focus from the dangers of climate engineering, (the aerially spraying of toxins into the atmosphere, wider reaching and far worse than the problem of ground level pollution). The troll uses conjecture, ridicule, and accusation to try and prove himself as credible by attempting to discredit others, and often exclaims, “you have no argument, that is just ad hominem”! Ironically, that is exactly what he is doing. The troll is trained to appear confident, unwavering, and that he is undoubtedly right, when in reality, it’s the exact opposite. He is a paid liar and his goal is to create doubt and keep the truth covered up. Some trolls have even begun to use environmental icons or the Guy Fawkes mask (symbol of Anonymous) as a profile pic and more realistic usernames now that we are becoming aware of their tactics. On youtube, the troll username, “Kevin Schmidt”, is a prime example.

8) POSING LEADING QUESTIONS and “PLAYING NICE” – (with actual examples of real paid troll’s comments). When the internet shill realizes people are aware of his tactics, he will then try to play nice, act innocent, and pose seemingly “harmless” leading questions

The shill response to this is incredible. I haven't seen anything like this in a while.

autismo, take the dildo out of your ass and sage this "thread" you ABSOLUTE RETARD

Nice, you changed your ID. Figures a thread exposing shill tactics would get a response like this.

>>>/reddit/ is that way

By the way, top lel is acceptable on mongolian basket weaving forums such as this, not that you'd know.

I'm just bumping this thread because of the massive shill response, first by an obvious bot and then by israeli spergs.

I've noticed long "semi"-shitposts or Semi-copypaste . Where they say something interesting and then mix it in with a absolute nonsensical tirade of shit. Or they take a copypaste and then they slightly just edit it so it seems to fit the context of the thread.

Semi-shitposting or semi-copypaste is a new tactic of theirs. I like to call these shitpaste, it's not even a proper paste.

Another one is when they use Tor, and then reply to themselves. They do this to create something similar to shitpost: the shitnarrative

They create this shitnarrative as a way to make visitors unmotivated to stay in the thread, and make the thread seem too wierd and of low quality. The shitnarrative is very effective for derailing, and making sure replies stop.

I figured that was the goal of the shill currently shitting up this thread. Wanted to keep the thread bumped until it gained enough momentum from non-shills to keep itself alive.

I wish I could have archived it before mods deleted it.

Picking up the anti-Soros torch from Hungarian leader Viktor Orban, UK politician Nigel Farage is seeking to investigate fellow EU MEPs who support the controversial vision of the wealthy financier. But are Orban and Farage’s fears valid?
UK politician Nigel Farage, the prominent face of Brexit, is now concerned about Europe’s destiny. Addressing the EU Parliament this week, Farage provided some thoughtful ideas as to the source of the claims that Russia had somehow manipulated the Brexit vote, as well as the Trump election.

“Just last week, the electoral commission, in the UK, launched an investigation to find out whether the ‘Leave’ campaign took offshore money or Russian money,” Farage said.

"This came about as a result of questions asked in the House of Commons by one Ben Bradshaw, somebody linked to an organization called Open Society.”


But Farage, who seems to take great delight in agitating his fellow MPs, was just warming up. He went on to provide yet another example of an EU parliamentarian working on behalf of George Soros, this time against Hungarian PM Viktor Orban, who has accused the financier of seeking to create “a Europe of mixed population.”

“We even had last week Mr. [Guy] Verhofstadt lobbying on behalf of Mr. Soros at the Conference of Presidents in a battle that is going on with Viktor Orban, the prime minister of Hungary,” Farage said, pointing directly at Verhofstadt as he spoke.

“I wonder,” Farage continued, “when we are talking about ‘political collusion,’ I wonder if we are looking in the wrong place.”

Farage described Soros’s influence in Strasbourg and Brussels as “truly extraordinary.” And that influence looks set to increase dramatically now that Soros has donated the bulk of his wealth - $18 billion - into his Open Society pet project, which campaigns for open borders and supranational structures such as the European Union.

Farage concluded his short, fiery monologue with a weighty statement: “I fear we could be looking at the biggest level of international, political collusion in history.”

On the surface, there seems to be some legitimacy to Farage’s claim. According to public sources, Open Society European Policy Institute (OSEPI), the EU policy arm of Open Society Foundations, met with members of the European Commission on 44 separate occasions in 2016. And now that the organization has just been energized with $18 billion, it would seem apparent that that influence is set to increase.

Moreover, the Soros organizations published a pamphlet providing details on a list of 226 reliable “friends” who serve in the European Parliament. Farage said he would call on the parliament to set up a special committee to investigate the issue.

Who are Soros’ 226 EU ‘friends’?
In a 177-page pamphlet published by Open Society, entitled “Reliable Allies in the European Parliament (2014-2019),” 226 EU MEPs are listed and labeled according to their political orientation and views.

According to the pamphlet, “The presence of an MEP in this mapping indicates that they are likely to support Open Society’s work. Considering there are 751 members of the European Parliament, “reliable allies” of George Soros hold at least one-third of seats."

foot-soldier in the fight against Putin’
So what sort of qualifications does an MEP need to be included among Open Society’s “reliable allies?” A quick preview of the candidate’s description field provides some good indication as to what Soros expects from his allies, including a political philosophy that includes support of the LGBTI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and/or intersex) movement, open borders and an anti-Russia stance.

Among the 226 chosen, there is one Yana Toom, an MEP from Estonia, who comes in for a bit of criticism despite her inclusion. “Refused supporting the European Parliament’s first resolution on the Ukraine-Russia conflict in July 2014, and may be pro-Russia to an unknown extent (and, in that case, not necessarily an Open Society).”

For anyone who questions whether Open Society works directly against Russian interests, that single line should dispel all doubts. Moreover, it provides some background as to why Russia in 2015 banned Open Society from operating on its territory due to the threat it posed to the country’s “constitutional order.”

Another MEP on the list, Monica Macovei of Romania, serves as something like the golden mean for star-studded Soros status.

“Resolutely progressive; unquestionable ally of Open Society values; does not hesitate to go against her group’s instructions; however, can sometimes be described as a loose cannon with her own, uncompromising set of priorities.”

When reading such an assessment, one might get the mistaken impression that the European Parliament is designed to serve the will of George Soros and his highly controversial agenda, as opposed to the will of the European peoples.

What does Soros want?
To say that George Soros, who was born and raised in Budapest, Hungary, has an influence on the global scene, would be the understatement of the century. His excessive wealth allows him to finance a veritable army of organizations, many serving at cross purposes.

Indeed, Soros, 87, has been connected to movements and civil disturbances as diverse as distanced as Black Lives Matter movement in the US, to the Maidan uprising in Ukraine.

And nowhere has Soros’s influence been more felt than in the ongoing European debate over migrants.
It looks like the European refugee crisis, which has been blamed on the Syrian civil war, would not occur in its current intensity without the direct assistance of the Open Society Foundation.

Thanks to the advocacy work of the Migration Policy Institute and the Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants (PICUM), both Soros-sponsored organizations, the mass resettlement of Muslims from the Middle East and North Africa into Europe became the norm.

In fact, it appeared that the so-called “Merkel Plan” – the deal struck by the EU and Turkey – was the brainchild of the European Stability Initiative, “in addition to the largesse of George Soros’ foundations,” F. William Engdahl wrote in the Near Eastern Outlook.

Considering that the massive influx of Muslim migrants threatens to change the face of “Christian Europe” forever, and without any vote on the matter by the people of Europe, perhaps it is time to see exactly what kind of direct influence George Soros and his Open Society Foundation are having on European parliamentarians. After all, these are not the play toys of any one individual, but the representatives of an entire state.

You don't need a shilldar, just have some idea what you're talking about. Shills are people with opinions of their own, and their jobs can go from fun and fulfilling to soul-killing in one rhetorical flourish - assuming you're actually persuasive and not just being a git. The real kryptonite for shills is better arguments… I find that blunt disbelief also does some work in a pinch.

What's your opinion on listed methods?

/thread
Although, there's one red flag not mentioned: unnecessarily aggressive, antagonistic posts like . Holla Forums is a volk, and should strive to educate, encourage, inspire, and uplift other anons. Obviously call someone a faggot if they deserve it. I'm not even worried about tipping of the jews because, even if they wanted to, they couldn't even feign compassion or camaraderie.

Worth bumping to remind everyone what this travesty of a thread was really in aid off.

Kill yourself.

Honestly this guide is totally unneeded for the initiated. My eyes just totally skip over shill posts based solely on how they are formatted and the "feel" they give off just by looking at the block of text without reading.
Suppose its like when Neo finally is able to read the code of the Matrix, when it was just jumbled looking code before.
