>>21052809Gamergate was the start of the downfall because that's when the moderation positions became mostly glowniggers on a shut-it-down mission, but it truly went to complete shit in 2016, with CTR & Shariablue paid shills who started the massive spamming of 1pbtid shithreads to sink real breads, on top of the plebbit migration of billions of migatards boomers after the r/the_dolan pruning.
The final nail in the coffin was when all said boomoids fell for the (((trust the plan))) CIAniggers' psyop and transformed into their final golemoid form : the Qtard.
Actually there are few extra nails on the coffin, like Unit 8200 who sharted countless bots to spam BBC breads, etc.. but at this point 90% of good posters already were gone and/or didn't bother anymore.
That's sad because right before 2016 elections, /pol/ had a really comfy time who lasted about a year, where memetic warfare was in full display, kek worshipping, and digging anons who were really efficient at unveiling tons of kikery. That's when the jews & glowies understood we were a real threat to them, and thus why they spent tens of millions USD to kill few boards and fully locked mods positions until the end times.
