How to destroy a newsgroup with minimal effort |
Beginning in the last week of September, 2004, Usenet saw a steady
series of posts from 'Voice of Truth' or 'Words of Truth'. Rather,
these are reposts of articles penned by various theologians -- a
cut'n'paste job. These articles, which have predictably provoked
endless commentary from Usenet's ample supply of atheists (a group of
avid posters second only to the rabid dogs of alt.binaries) are
consistently sent to two newsgroups; alt.atheism and
alt.fan.noam-chomsky. Other groups are included as the topic deems
appropriate.
'Truth' never bothers to reply. The damage is done with a single
posting. The machine that is atheism cannot help but take the bait,
easily generating hundreds of bickering posts as everyone jumps at the
opportunity to tell the world about their beliefs or lack of. A
cross-posting to, say, rec.org.mensa insures that the topic receives its
minimum requirement of fuel to keep the theists and the atheists
squabbling endlessly, as if humankind's oldest debate will somehow be
resolved on Usenet.
What has been accomplished with these posts? The atheists are still
atheists. The christians are still christians. But one of Usenet's
most critical and dissident newsgroups (and I'm not talking about
alt.atheism) has been nearly silenced by this clamor -- six weeks before
the world's most important political decision in at least four years.
Now, I doubt that we are going to solve the God riddle in the next two
weeks, but we are going to decide on a direction for humankind (or least
a substantial chunk of it). 'Voice of Truth' is nothing but a newsgroup
saboteur, albeit a very effective one. There are more important things
than your personal struggle with existence. So please, people, if you
don't believe that the Lord is your shepherd, stop acting like FUCKING
SHEEP!

In all the years I've been coming back to this group there have been trolls
and people telling others not to respond to trolls. Both are constants.

In article <sXvgd.200$KL4.156@trnddc07>, says...
What has been accomplished with these posts?
What is accomplished is that Voice of Untruth's theistic nonsense is
refuted and summarily shoved back up his ignorant ***** where it came from
in the first place. It doesn't matter if dumbfuck theists aren't
convinced. Their arguments have been been destroyed and their failure
to cogently respond only makes that more clear.
The atheists are still
atheists. The christians are still christians. But one of Usenet's
most critical and dissident newsgroups (and I'm not talking about
alt.atheism)
Well Chomsky is okay, if that's who you consider an important dissident.
He is an atheist too, as you probably know.
has been nearly silenced by this clamor
Welcome to the real world, sweetie. Theistic morons have been trying
to produce superstitious sound and fury signifying nothing for lo many
millennia.
-- six weeks before
the world's most important political decision in at least four years.
I suspect that there is some kind of connection, dontcha think?

weeks, but we are going to decide on a direction for humankind (or least

Hardly. These kinds of trolls come and go all the time.
There are more important things
than your personal struggle with existence. So please, people, if you
don't believe that the Lord is your shepherd, stop acting like FUCKING

We've already mastered that, but now we need to get the theists to
refrain from it as well.

I understand your frustration, believe me, but I'm afraid you're pissing
into the wind. The majority of alt.atheism denizens don't respond to Voice
of Truth after the first couple of threads, where we learned he's not
interested in intellectual and interesting dicussion. However, a few
outspoken and sensitive people here will always reply often enough and
angrily enough to disrupt newsgroup traffic as Truth hopes. Not only so,
but it takes two to tango -- there are regulars of alt.fan.noam-chomsky who
perpetrate the same behavior, as in all the newsgroups Truth periodically
cross-posts to.
I can't quite figure out whether you're suggesting that it is atheism in
particular that provides the catalyst for this kind of sabotage (which is
demonstratably not true), or calling for those who feed trolls to stop
doing so, which is a call that's been made probably millions of times every
day since the dawn of the Internet and has never had results. Either way,
this isn't going to get any results, and even if all of us atheists decided
to believe in God, the tactics of posters like Truth would still work as
well as they do now.
Of course, in this case most of the angry posts come from atheists, since
Truth's trolling is directed at atheists and will get the most anger from
that area. If Truth were trolling about Chomsky, most of the disruptive
posts would be coming from *your* newsgroup. If Truth were trolling about
Christianity the anger would flow from the Christians, or if it were about
Republicans, it would be the Republicans shouting and turning red in the
face.
This is what happens when a troll gets loose. You can't stop it, and you
can't blame the target group just because some of them get offended when
someone tries to offend them. That reaction is natural in ANY group, and
yours is no exception. The best you can do is work with solutions that
minimize the damage -- solutions like killfiles.
Of course, there's always the chance that *you* are merely a troll, and
that by posting this, I'm helping to perpetrate *your* sabotage. Your post
was certainly offensive (as it would have been to you if I had said similar
things about you), but right now I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt
that you don't intend it that way.

Thanks for the rational reply. You're right -- your newsgroup was set
up to ***** me off, so I apologize for venting my frustration at you
instead of the troll.
Since Truth has managed to open a dialog between alt.atheism and
alt.fan.noam-chomsky, perhaps we can thwart the troll and turn this
discussion into something useful.
You (American) atheists have an interesting choice to make in this
upcoming election. Who do you plan to vote for; the Methodist or the
Catholic?
Are you frustrated that your political choices always seem to be folks
who have succumbed to the fallacies of faith? Do you think that arguing
theology at the grassroots level really has any effect on the political
leaders propped up by millions of Catholics and Evangelical christians?
If so, is there any evidence of this?
Maybe the Europeans among us have something useful to teach the
Americans who seem to be lagging in the secular department...

I understand, I've done it myself. It's just hard to tell sometimes
whether someone is deliberately trying to cause harm or just venting
understandable frustration.

Certainly ;)
You (American) atheists have an interesting choice to make in this
upcoming election. Who do you plan to vote for; the Methodist or
the Catholic?
As far as I know, very few atheists actually care about the
candidate's religious affiliation. Now, that may sound like an
attempt to color atheism in a better light, given that Bush's
religious beliefs are undeniably an issue in this election,
*especially* for atheists and agnostics.
But the important point to consider is that it is not what Bush
believes that most atheists take issue with (I say 'most', because
atheists who oppose Bush are by far the majority of atheists in this
country), but what he intends to do with those beliefs. A person's
private beliefs are, in my opinion and that of most nonreligious
people that I know, a personal matter that is really none of
anybody's damn business. It *becomes* our business, however, when
we're told that we have to believe the same -- for example, when
we're forbidden to issue marriage licenses to gay people because
Bush's religion says it's immoral.
If Bush and Kerry both went to the same church in the same location
every Sunday, I think very little would change about the average
atheist's attitude towards the candidates. Ultimately, more
atheists support Kerry than Bush because Kerry, a religious man,
believes that secular issues are the province of the government and
religious morality issues are the province of the clergy.
Bush believes that anything one believes to be true is the province
of the government -- and seems limited only by the fact that he
isn't a dictator, because his personal values certainly seem to
place no limit on his activities. It is this that turns most
atheists off of him, not his religion.
If you haven't guessed, I'm voting for Kerry ;)
Are you frustrated that your political choices always seem to be
folks who have succumbed to the fallacies of faith?
Does it frustrate me? Yes. Does the tactic work? Brilliantly.
The average American has been brought up to believe that religious
faith in general, and Christianity in particular, is the sign of a
morally upright human being, and that if a person without strong
religious faith shows a strong moral compass, it is despite that
lack of faith, not because of or parallel to it.
Among those tolerant of nonreligious worldviews, the general
attitude in America is, 'Atheism is bad, but don't condemn all
atheists, because some of them manage to be good people anyway.'
The implication, of course, is that if you meet a good atheist,
great, but don't count on an atheist you meet being a good person.
For this reason, very few Americans would vote for an atheist, even
Americans who claim to be open-minded.
This isn't a black-and-white, atheist-or-Christian matter, either.
In general, the candidate who is most outspoken about his/her
religion is perceived as the man of greater faith, and by extension,
the one most likely to be reliable and moral. Thus, on his
much-vaunted faith alone, Bush holds a significant advantage over
Kerry -- not because Kerry isn't religious, but because Kerry
doesn't push his religion into the public eye as much as Bush does.
A candidate who keeps his religious and political lives completely
invisible to each other, as they do in Europe, would be like a
breath of fresh air. I find religion fascinating, and I will seek
out religious people just to talk to them, but when religion becomes
part of our government, I get very uneasy, because I've seen what
religion in government can do. It shouldn't even be something you
consider when deciding who to vote for, and it bothers me that a
worse leader can get the job just because he 'has more faith'.
But I also know that in modern America such a thing would be
impossible. Therefore, I accept the candidate's discussion of their
religious beliefs as a necessary political expedient, and judge them
by their actions, not their words. It's frustrating, but it's
bearable.
Do you think that arguing theology at the grassroots level really has
any effect on the political leaders propped up by millions of Catholics
and Evangelical christians?
If so, is there any evidence of this?
To be honest, I think it does -- if we do it right. It's a long, slow
process, and I don't think we'll see results very soon, but how can we
possibly promote tolerance except by talking to the average person? I
think that if we can argue rationally and reasonably, without alienating
people unnecessarily, and at least convince people that we are intelligent,
rational, moral people, then in time people will accept us.
Is there any evidence of it? Not really. That is, none except that in the
past, when a society has learned tolerance, it's been because the average
person became more aware and concerned.
Maybe the Europeans among us have something useful to teach the
Americans who seem to be lagging in the secular department...
Oh, I'm sure they do. But Americans aren't listening very well right
now...

I tried setting up a filter to kill all threads crossposted between the
groups, but it doesn't work for some reason. In alt.atheism we're used
to a heavy volume of trolls, and it's getting more dificult to filter
them. So some of us amuse ourselves and others by taking pot shots.
We've also lately had a rash of trolls from a guy who uses similar nicks
- and changes them weekly, thereby popping out of all but the most
sophisticated killfiles. I'll watch for the chomsky group in the headers
and if I feel compelled to take a shot I'll trim it.

Ugh. I prefer Kerry because I despise Bush. I wish Ron Reagan Jr. would
run, but an atheist stands a worse chance of being elected president than
a Muslim.

No. Despite the valiant efforts by supporters of the US Constitution,

If you think that *newsgroups* are somewhat important and

The real political importance of the Net is on the blogs.

everything x-posted at all).

on 29 Oct 2004 in alt.atheism, Gabrielle Rapagnetta dropped trou, farted,
whirled, then shouted:
Now, I doubt that we are going to solve the God riddle in the next two
weeks, but we are going to decide on a direction for humankind (or least
a substantial chunk of it). 'Voice of Truth' is nothing but a newsgroup
saboteur, albeit a very effective one. There are more important things
than your personal struggle with existence. So please, people, if you
don't believe that the Lord is your shepherd, stop acting like FUCKING
SHEEP!
Shhhh, quiet! We're playing with the troll.
