It's not like knowing about clandestine methods of sharing info are going to matter any time soon, right? And definitely do not spend any time studying related material.

It would be more entertaining if you posted that on the tankie instances.

CIA propaganda!

Anybody is welcome to reshare it.

I would do it, but I now refuse to post anything political or historical in any tankie instance / community that contradicts the tankies’ alternative reality. If you so much as hint that you’re not fully onboard with their mad theories, you’re very quickly banned, and I’d rather retain the ability to post in non-controversial communities I’m interested in that are unfortunately hosted on tankie instances.

Only reason I know about Samizdat is because of Deus Ex.

Please be clear. Why are you sharing this?

I don't know how you measure success but I suspect your rates are less than ideal. My recommendation is to speak clearly and efficiently. Don't expect your readers to do all the work. Their time is important too. Good luck!

There's nothing wrong with offering tools, that a person may not have known about before, and which they may be inspired to make their own uses of. If I start making demands on what they "should" do, it may distract from how any number of people or communities might find use for it for themselves.
