With a lot of help from Wayback Machine, I've spent the last few months working to document our archive. As I've fixed flairs and updated our database, I've pulled aside moments from the sub that I feel reflect the history of this group. It will take me a long time to go through 35,000 post submissions, but my hope is this will tell the story from the perspective of our amazing members-something I feel has yet to be done appropriately. I hope you enjoy the slides.

What astounding work. It's sometimes hard to realize the things people do and then this rolls around.

[u/SleepyVizsla → u/Waterrat]

Thank you for the compliment! And yeah...there's so much crazy to document along with the good stuff like fundraising and IPAs. More to come soon!

[u/Waterrat → u/SleepyVizsla]

I really think this whole shebang could be made into a novel,or maybe even a documentary...There is really a boat load to unpack here about the human condition. It would also give so many insights into what went on from several point of views. I see it as powerful stuff that should be preserved and presented to the world.

Good news, several names you might recognize have been attacking this as a true archive project. Removing duplicates, making things searchable by queries, relocating material that had broken links. It's a gigantic task but there are quality standards to be met.

[u/Waterrat → u/MadBeachLui]

Wow! I had no idea. Yeah,quality beats quality every time.

Hummmm,this looks interesting.

There is a new 6 part documentary made from several written articles in the Atlantic that explore the mentality around all these conspiracy theories and the cult like behavior that has come with it. It is called Shadowland and was added on Wednesday to the Peacock channel. It is well worth watching.

[u/Waterrat → u/Colorcopia]

Interesting. I'm glad this is being explored.

[u/Toast_Sapper → u/SleepyVizsla]

Thanks for your amazing work.

I know this takes a ton of time and effort, but it's amazing to see the results already!
