It looks like
smashthebutlercult/ Exposing the Science of Identity Cult: Don't believe the lies of Chris Butler is simply a news aggregator like so many on the internet. The RSS feed you personalize on your computer is one. The
Drudge Report is probably the most familiar and influential (news aggregator) counter-media site (with Matt Drudge as its curator).
I don't see a problem with posting Flash's stuff as long as you give proper attribution and links. This just gives Flash more outlets to be seen, read, and taken seriously.
The issue is that some of us have spent years researching and hours writing content regarding Butler. It's a thankless job where it seems that 'no good deed goes unpunished'. So we won't take kindly to someone posting our hard work without attribution and links.
There are tons of news aggregator sites, usually with a targeted niche or issue. The key is not to publish the whole article, but some high interest paragraphs with a
prominent link to the original work. You don't need the author's permission to do this, but it's nice if you ask first. The aggregated sites with the most influence and punch follow ethical guidelines. They don't make up shit and they don't steal content (full articles).
Doing an anti-Butler news aggregator site is difficult because unlike other sites dedicated to huge topics in the news, there is not a lot to post about Butler's group at this time. Drudge and others can post 10 -20 fresh news stories an hour!
smashthebutlercult ~ If you want content for your site, set up your own interviews. Quote and reference the vast amount of testimony already in existence on this forum alone and write your own thoughts. Have you had similar experiences in the cult? Can you validate or agree with some of the things you have read on this forum or on other blogs?
Or more powerfully, share your own experiences within the cult. Why are you so intent on exposing the cult? What got you in the cult in the first place? And how did you get out? What was harmful to you personally by being in the cult? Do you have concerns about retaliation from the cult for any reason? There are a lot of ways to tell your story without revealing your identity.
In the past, good blogs and websites "outing" Butler have come and gone because they crossed legal lines or were afraid of a backlash from the cult. And then there is also the risk of Butler Cult members who pretend to be "anti-cult" for awhile only to attempt to discredit legitimate posters. They also start flame wars with people who have presented the most damaging evidence. That has happened here on the CE forum. Over the years we have seen all sorts of brainwashed trolls try to prevent the exposure of their ass hat guru.
Everyone has their own opinions, perspectives, and action plans. We don't always agree on everything, but we have learned to get along and play nicely. What we all agree upon are the very real dangers of cults and cult leaders. We are all of the same opinion that the Butler Cult is a secretive and dangerous operation. We don't take this lightly. Nor will we suffer trolls ever again on this forum.
