Platformstrawmanculture

Platformstrawmanculture is a term used within contentinternet describing how mainstream digital platforms algorithmically amplify superficial or intentionally distorted strawman portrayals of others to drive engagement. Participants exchange simplified, emotionally charged hivemindidioms, resulting in polarized echo chambers where each side continuously throws these rhetorical "snakes" at opponents, emphasizing exaggerated or absurd portrayals rather than genuine opinions or thoughtful critique. Within this commodified environment, piggorgons opportunistically gain visibility by participating in repetitive ideological conformity, while authentic contributors become algorithmically throttled. Platformstrawmanculture explicitly reveals mechanisms of the Gorgon System, exposing processes of historical revisionism, lack of epistemic accountability, and intentional denial of the benefit of the doubt in a culture of commodified emotional labor. It functions within contentinternet as a linguistic tool to highlight and critique the deeper ideological dynamics known as Gorgonwars, demonstrating how mainstream algorithms incentivize superficial narratives and discourage authentic intellectual exchange.

piggorgon

PigGorgon is a bureaucratic enforcer of hivemindidioms in GorgonWars, characterized by its rigid imposition of linguistic and ideological conformity. Unlike other Gorgons who unconsciously perpetuate idioms, PigGorgon institutionalizes them, ensuring that deviation is met with active suppression. This figure operates through legalistic justification, presenting its enforcement as "reasonable moderation" or "necessary oversight," even when it contradicts broader principles such as free speech. PigGorgon relies on hivemindidioms to rationalize its actions, dismissing contradictions by invoking overarching values while preventing genuine dialectical engagement. Emotional authority plays a key role in PigGorgon logic, where subjective feelings, such as personal offense, become the basis for determining what is acceptable discourse. This reliance on personal sensitivity rather than reasoned debate allows PigGorgon to frame ideological policing as a neutral or benevolent act. In its strongest form, ManBearPigGorgon, this entity not only enforces idioms but actively eradicates deviation, ensuring total submission to the prevailing linguistic and ideological structure.

bro 1: isn't it funny how there is an archetypal similarity to how piggorgon actually look?

bro 2: nah man its just a coincidence, but yeah i guess it is funny.

platforming strawmen

Pretty much how the internet started to work once it was accepted that you can kick out people that don't agree with you from your online community. As a result of a culture of 'de-platforming' and censorship, what actually started to happen was that people started to platform "strawman" - intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat rather than engaging with an opponent's real argument - instead.

"Internet today is just a bunch of platforming strawmen"
