Comments on The Nobody Threads Part 1
I will be returning the focus to the election interference issues in later posts but for this one I want to say some things about The Nobody Threads. Although I wasn't there in 2010 when they began, I did read a lot of those from that period of time up until about 2016 when a lot of old threads were purged. It was around this time that The Nobody fell more out of use as a term at GLP and threads began to be called Anomaly threads instead. It seemed to be confusing for people, as some were not sure what the connection was, if it was the same topic or content, etc. To be blunt, it was a term I jokingly introduced at GMG to differentiate between the other posts, it was not meant as an endorsement or acceptance of the threads.
Another splinter forum, Conspiracy Outpost, which was ran by former GLP members, really expanded on the term further in the context of their own interpretation. That forum, like others, tried to explore and expose the connection between the threads and the Tavistock Institute, a NGO that engages in psychological research and publishing. Tavistock Institute is based in the UK, and a disclaimer upon entering GLP refers to the site jurisdiction as Jersey, UK. Mentioning Tavistock at GLP leads to a ban, often automatically. It is also curious to note that GLP bans for specific keywords, usually these are topics but GLP also bans users for one particular slur while letting others be posted freely, and I know I'm not the only one to have found that unusual. I have a lot of evidence of some predatory behavior that went on there but I'll leave that for some later posts.
Now, one common theme among splinter forums like COP is that they had a falling out with GLP and usually over their practices. These splinters also tend to make mention of Tavistock more explicitly, especially because one cannot at GLP. One of the leading theories is that the threads either started as a form of research by Tavistock or later came to be studied by them. This is extremely questionable given the gaslighting and toxic elements in the threads. It was these elements I wanted to speak more in detail about that will take a more in-depth series of posts to describe, along with demonstrable evidence.
There were some posters, at least two, who claimed to have M.A. in psychology, and there was another individual who was studying as a psychology major. I witnessed an ongoing feud between these people which led to the latter individual being forced off the site, harassed off site, and it is believed that at some point their pursuit in psychology was sidelined. The manner of psychologists cannibalizing each other like that was extremely abhorrent to me. I find it to be a sign of weaponization of psychology of the most sinister kind, something I do not want to see enabled or spread through civilization, which is another major reason why I am doing this expose.
While it is possible those two individuals may not have been real psychology, the harassment against this third person was very real, or if somehow that was orchestrated then it only means worse things for all of this. I've seen similar treatment of others. Generally speaking, the threads are very much used to gaslight and harass people, whereby people either do so anonymously or through accounts that are clearly in some kind of inside connection GLP. The whole point of the disclaimer that refers to jurisdiction in Jersey UK seems to be a kind of legal shield to allow the online harassment to perpetuate. Some of these people seem to believe that if one goes to that site, that the site has carte blanche to say and do whatever they want to people. They act as one is a guest in a home of theirs, with their rules.
But I disagree, and so one of my aims is to increase the awareness of these threads so that learning about them doesn't have to involve going to protected platforms with people thinking they can get away with that, putting the discussion in other platforms where these same people have no control. The other element that is absolutely worth emphasizing is that data of the users being at stake while the site and thread management have this data at their disposal. By viewing the sites, they acquire IP addresses, spread cookies, and perhaps other spyware. In the information economy in this day and age, more things about people can be identified in a way connected to these digital markers. What these people are doing are playing around with people's personal information and using it against them to harass them whether onsite or offsite. The difference in approach to harassment can vary according to the person, occasion, or place. If the discussion of these threads reach platforms these people cannot control, then they can't steal the data as easily either.
Additionally, as referred to in posts about spyware on phones, this site and these threads may have been used a vector for introducing software either like Pegasus or Pegasus itself. When coupling this with the election interference components, this all spells out something very bad for Westerners. I intend to bring this to light.
