Lol, lmao even
If you think the conspiracies weren’t politically motivated, you didn’t dig into who was “controlling the Libor/NSA” deep enough. Especially with anything money based, it always came back to the Jews. Like, for decades of looking into this shit, it’s always been at the back of these conspiracy theories. Also, they had to hide their power level so much more up until, so it was easier for the naive to not see what they were really doing.

Oh yeah, those shitgibbons are always lurking around the margins looking for an opportunity. It’s an eternal problem, and another actual fascist conspiracy is driving it right now. Fuck Stephen Harper and the IDU.
Most discussions about Libor in the early slashdot/digg/reddit fora were not ethnically aligned, the craven ones got downvotes at first. I never read any upvoted threads about NSA abuses that referenced hate speech. No one notably mentioned Jews or other hate targets regarding UFO coverups until space laser MTG. I also think those posts and threads were downvoted and moderated at first.
A lot of the r/conspiracy discussion in the early 2010’s still had quite a few left-leaning anti authoritarian participants, buoyed by recently being right about some large actual conspiracies, and they were numerous enough to repress obvious racism. It didn’t become a lost battle until the Q brigade showed up.
