/cbts/ - Calm Before The Storm

<Tactic 2: Topic Camping

Search a topic on Twitter and you will be brought immediately to the (((top))) results. Ignore these and proceed immediately to "Recent". These are Virgin tweet with few comments.

Virgin tweets are the best for guerrilla campaigns, because you can steer the entire discussion yet to unfold. Drop a meme and move onto the next one.

Always follow up when you get a (you)s . Your thread will snow balling the more people pile onto the discussion. Twitter's notification system is very good, use it!

I like to rotate camp between 4-6 topics at a time, revisiting each about every 2 hours throughout the day. Phoneposting is best for this, buy a burner cheap and don't put a sim card in it.

Always spread the love! Hit like button on EVERY reply and follow EVERYONE. This puts people off guard, always use kindness as a weapon. Make your opponent look like the irrational hater!

< Tactic 3: Images Trump Text

Whenever possible, respond with image tweets. Images take up more screen real estate than a line of text, and much more information is conveyed through imagery.

Format your pictures so that all the text can be read in the twitter thumbnail, so that users don't have to click to read your message. (see attachment for examples)

Unlike text, images can instantly evoke strong emotions (see attacment: kid's bodybag)

Memes are usually received well but don't overdo them. You may be accused of being alt-right or from 4chan, although this is changing as other sites begin to manufacture their own memes.

I find it useful to split-test memes and imagery to find out which ones get the most response (likes, replys, retweets)

< Tactic 4: Bait and Drip

I love this tactic. Drop a meme with some sort of error in it, and you will get guaranteed responses. Trump did this with his black crime stats tweet (see attachment) - I bait NFL fans by dropping an image of an empty soccer stadium in Dublin with the text #NFLboycott (see attachment)

Once people start replying, you can drop the real redpills. In my case I have a dozen images showing actual NFL football stadiums, fans burning jerseys, news articles. Every time a tweeter drops an excuse, I drop another pill.

Be patient, don't dump 20 pills all at once. Wait for them to take the bait.

Each new person that takes the bait automatically subscribes to your twitter chain, and will be notified of ALL future redpills you feed into the chain. Sometimes a chain will go on so long that up to 12 people could be subscribed to your thread for a comment they made days ago.

Thanks anon, it's nice to know someone is reading these. Consider this stuff a rough draft, it will all be polished and made more digestible before pushing to the other chans.

< Tactic 5: Crashing a tweet chain

Aged tweets often contain multiple established threads with many conversational participants. You can leap to the end of the tweetchain and drop a redpill, which will instantly be sent into the notification inbox of every participant.

Since a single tweet might contain several, dozens or even hundreds of separate threads, it pays to saturate a big tweet with many redpills. Have multiple variations of your redpill ready so that you are less likely to be seen by the algorithm as a spammer.

< Tactic 6: multi accounts and botting

it's best to work with several accounts, to allow each to "cool down" from a heated tweetstorm. If you spam redpills on just one account it is more likely to be noticed by the Algorithm and shut down. Personally I work with three primary accounts on three different devices. I use 1 burner phone, 1 main phone, 1 desktop PC. All devices have a unique, false identity. When one account gets shut down I can open another within minutes.

The Algorithm is better at detecting and shutting down bots than it used to be, but shitposters are still having success with follow-bots. I can get a new account up to 1000 followers within a week using the Hot Girl + Follow Bot combo. You can follow 1000 accounts per day safely. Unfollow accounts that don't follow you back

>>19268

I've been running 3 accounts off the same IP address for over a month now, and the only problena I have are due to "automated activity" - this does not even ban the account, but puts it in a state where you must verify using a phone number. I was able once to verify one of these accounts (now my main account) using a burner number on an android app but the vast majority of these numbers are flagged.

I also had a account restricted for "much harrasment" after I took someone's profile pic and wrote "hateful bigot" on it, and sent it back to her. ANY account restriction forces a phone verification and spells the death of my account.

One possible trick to avoid phone verification is to set the age of the user very young. This trixk for sure works on new google accounts. I have one twitter account aged 14 that has yet to be restricted.

Pic unrelated, new pro trump memes targetted at normie Twitter users

Lost another account today, but all the tweets stay live so its not really a problem. Twitter is littered with the corpses of my golems.

Dumping a few twitter friendly soy boy memes I was pushing a couple weeks ago. The Soy: not even once meme gets the best response, the pussy hat soyboy drawing I use when people question what a soyboy is. Have different memes for different purposes.

>come 18 Dec you'll have to be more careful, because they'll track you BY ANY MEANS THEY

great point, my anonymous friend.

I've developed an Opera build that should alleviate some or all of the tracking concerns and allow the shitposting to continue uninterrupted. I recommend starting with my build and tooling it to your needs. Run this browser alongside your current browser, I don't think a website can go spying on the cookies from other browsers installed on your machine, but maybe an anon can correct me if i'm wrong about that.

<shitpost build: Opera

Why Opera? Because it comes stock with a FREE VPN from SurfEasy Inc in Canada (see pic 1) you can enable the VPN in the settings menu, and you will know it's working when you see the VPN indicator beside the address bar (pic 2)

I've tested the VPN a little, and it is very nice. It's very fast, and the IP address changes with each refresh. I was able to open a twitter account in under a minute without any issue (see pic 3) normally you would fill out the entire profile to make it look fully legitimate, but I only opened this account to test the VPN. I don't know yet if shitposting through the Opera VPN makes the account more likely to get flagged by the Algorithm, but i'll report back on my findings once I know more.

Unfortunately posting on 4ch using this VPN is disabled. I haven't tested any other site yet.

Here are the links to the different addons that comprise my Opera build, and a brief description:

http://www.opera.com/download

>the main browser. windows and mac

https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/opera-adblock/

>adblock because ads are pukey and a major source of tracking bullshit

https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/noscript-lite/

>blocks ALL javascript. This makes any site an absolute pleasure to use, until you need to interact with it in someway. It comes with a whitelist of major sites. You will have to turn javascript on for most sites if you want to comment or create an account.

https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/ghostery/

>block trackers. I block advertising, social media and Site analytics trackers. (see pic 4)

Once thing I haven't been able to find on Opera self-destructing cookies plugin. Other browsers have them. Still allows cookies, but destroys them after a short period of time. A brilliant workaround to the "must enable cookies" bullshit on many sites.

Opera also doesn't seem to have twitter follow bots, however since it's based on Chromium, it may be possible to install some of the chrome plugins. I'll have to test that later once I find the name of the follow bot I like.

>>23805

I just tested the Opera shitposting build on 8pol - and it worked beautifully. I posted three times in the same thread, which means I posted from 3 different IPs, but my ID stayed the same. It must be tied to the machine not the IP address.

< Tactic 7: Show, don't Tell

Show don't tell is a powerful writing technique you'll see used in novels, news articles, tweets, youtube videos, and any other communication medium. It's far more persuasive to show evidence of a point, than to simply declare that point.

If you are arguing with somebody who is TELLING and you are SHOWING - you will ALWAYS win the argument.

Perfect example: the most common critisism of the "It's Okay to be White" message is "no one ever said it wasn't!" - thats a TELL response, a declaration without evidence.

Instead of TELLING your conversational opponent "the media says it all the time" - SHOW the evidence. I use pic related 1 and pic related 2 (and many others) to SHOW that indeed, "It's not okay to be white" is an extremely prevalent message. You can tweet or post the image in response. It's so effective you don't even really need words. At most you can say "no one?"

< Tactic 8: Questions not Statements.

No one? What about this? Is this OK? Where did you read that? Can you show me? Who wrote that? Can you post some examples? Ok, just one example? etc, etc, etc,

Questions are powerful. They allow you to direct the conversation, and with the right questions, your opponent will defeat their own arguments themselves.

Never be condescending with your questions, they have to come from an honest place for someone to take them seriously enough to respond.

< Tactic 9: Play Dumb

I really can't stress this next point enough. PLAY DUMB. Let your opponent think they are the teacher, and you the idiot student. Everyone thinks they are smart as shit so this is an easy scam to pull off. I like to LARP as a danish or polish ESL student who does not understand US culture.

Make your opponent(s) explain why antifa violence is good, or why whites are bad, or why everybody hates trump in this country but not in """"my"""" country. They can't accuse you of being an alt-right shitlord if you honestly just don't know shit and can barely speak english. Being dumb also gives you an excuse to ask LOTS AND LOTS of questions.

>Just set up a gab.ai account with the same name.

absolutely not. There are NO normies on Gab. Every tactic listed here is intended to influence normies, while blending is a normie.

>Let your followers know. After 18 Dec, everyone (who matters) will migrate …

As I've already stated, these strategies are not dependent on having followers. If you already have a following, try to keep it, and use alternative accounts on Opera VPN for guerilla twitter.

Did you know demons fear the cross? Infographic related.

>>42797

You could stretch and say a thicc cross is an unpacked cube, but the cross is primarily a holy symbol.

The cross was originally a roman torture device. It is a "holy symbol" because Jesus was killed on this roman torture device.

OP here, under a different ID.

Yes! in fact i got a lot of my ideas from that chart and /cfg/ originally.

I have another file about connecting accounts, and a converted txt file with more detail about psyops and botting.

And just for fun, the most important book ever written on propaganda.

A page from the PDF pamphlet I am putting together based on these techniques.
