Posted on: June 9, 2025 at 11:50:03 CT

1. Notify a small subset of posters of intent to disarm a conservative poster and attempt to be classified as conservative by said poster solely through the posting of socialist ideas and rhetoric.

Sources used include Jason Stanley, Slavoj Zizek, Todd McGowan, Karl Marx, Yanis Varoufakis, Noam Chomsky, Simone Weil

2. Identify posters whom the conservative subject bashes the most and target their responses for the strongest attacks using socialist ideas and rhetoric. These posters served as a control group as they correctly identified the socialist nature of the posts being made by the experimenter. MIZ45 proved to be the most challenging as he figured out the intent of the experiment early on risking exposure.

Initial posts in the experiment generated the usual insults from the subject of the experiment. But it was observed quickly that the subject lessened the most common insult “minnow matt” by including a positive comment in the body of the response. Experiment conductor started receiving positive private messages from the test subject showing the experiment was working.

Experimenter identified fascism as an attractive topic to the test subject and began a series of posts on fascism from socialist sources drawing positive comments from test subject. Likewise a campaign targeting posters with labeling them, the contents of their posts, or their support of Trump as fascist using socialist rhetoric about fascism proved successful in disarming and finding support from the test subject.

End result of experiment focused on promoting socialist ideals:

Conclusion: Test subject shows a considerable alignment with socialist ideas. The promotion of socialist ideas altered the perception of the test subject’s view of the experimenter. The use of a self-described conservative label does not match with the political alignment of the test subject. The test subject is socialist.
