Skeptische Aktion - The #SkepticismPlus "Task Force" Info Dump: https://mega.nz/#!ku5RACpC!EouiOs5THU8-PzS71RWI2q9UkwGZlSTRkl-M5mrpC8c https://twitter.com/BravingRuin/status/942074856664977408 https://idsv.co/siv Additional Info: https://pastebin.com/raw/LTv3dzpP Op Artwork: https://imgur.com/a/LdD4d https://imgur.com/a/su1ue >Kraut & Tea is running a secret discord server called The Task Force, with a crew consisting of various skeptic youtubers, a "science team," and fanboys acting as "detectives." Many of the skeptic youtubers within The Task Force will be speakers at the Kilroy "free speech conference," such as Youtubers Jeff Holiday and Wizard of Cause. The server even includes Kilroy organizer "Based Mama." They have also brought in a New York Times journalist. >The stated goal of the server is to "debunk racists," but in reality, much of the server's activity involves cult-like plotting against Kraut's enemies and collecting information they use to smear and potentially dox those enemies. There is even a "hit list" of right-wing YTers and personalities, from people as small as Braving Ruin and Alternative Hypothesis all the way up to people as big as Black Pigeon Speaks, James Allsup, and Baked Alaska. Many of these people do not even discuss "race realism" as a regular subject, and so the motivation for Kraut's crew seems to be ideological, rather than academic. >So far, the smears have primarily been directed at one main target: JF GariƩpy, although the "dossiers" on myself and Alt Hype are updated frequently as well, mostly with out of context quotes and dishonest accusations. There are clear instances of Kraut's lackies posting dox or bragging about doxing people, and there are individual text threads dedicated to each target. >There are several hours of audio/video recordings and dozens of screenshots. Many more screenshots could potentially be derived from the videos, as the entirety of the server has been screen-recorded. The footage has been cropped and occasionally edited to protect the identity of the leakers, since Kraut and his goons are insane and have shown themselves willing to smear, mass flag, and possibly dox people they don't like. But the most astonishing thing of all is that they actually have a New York Times journalist in the server, by the name of Amy Harmon. She is a pop science writer for NYT, and they are looking to marginalize "the alt-right" or whatever by having her publish a piece. Many of the involved youtubers have professed a dislike for the mainstream media, but now they go running when they think it will help them in an ideological goal.
