If you cause panic then most of the big time vendors and suppliers are either going to leave or take a break for a while. Trump could then gather his forces to take us down.
What we need to do is spread the word. If people knew more about the darkweb, how safe it is compared to IRL situations or how much more economical it is, they would use it more. I'm not saying we should bring people in and be okay with them not knowing proper OPSEC, but we do have the numbers and we need to take advantage of that. We should also be open to teaching new people.
Mods leaving, Angel leaving, talks about Dream and AB getting shutdown and exist scamming, all this calls for a change. More people need to come in, more markets need to open, this place hasn't reached its peak. The economy for drug distribution and grey market activities will never go away, LE has to realize that, there will always be people that will pop up and start their business when they see a gap in the market. What everyone should be doing (us and LE) is to make it safer for people to use and share without the scare that it could be cut with levamisole or fent.
What JoR did was good, although he didn't do it properly (by making TMG the spotlight), he brought in a wave of new people into the deepweb. We need to create a new hype, we need to get more people in here like never before. It forces LE to spend more resources it could be using for other, more important things and it builds our community into a more global one. I noticed there isn't a lot of representation from Asian and South American countries on the big markets, maybe we can change that. I just saw a thread about a good Argentinean vendor, I bet that fresh peruvian cocaine has a lot less levimisole than cocaine from Europe. There is such potential for growth in those areas. We need to have a revolution.
Yes, to be honest. I mentioned this in a comment the other day.
A recent example of this tactic being used could be seen during the US Presidential debate, on both sides.
