How can we grow our userbase?  There are lots of Discordians on sites like 4chan, yet very few of them know about this site.

The site reveals itself to them when their pineal gland has sufficiently developed. If they're still on 4chan it means they may profess to being Discordians, but in their hearts they are still very stupid people that browse 4chan.

I found Principia Discordia one random day on the Internet Archive and didn't understand it (it was in spanish my mother language), then I saw a video of a guy who was on psychedelics and talked about the Discordians and their weird customs and dogmas, like hot dogs on weekends and their obsession with the crazy bitch that live in the pineal gland and the number 23.
Then an anon on a Spanish chan shared a link to this site to me, and I ended up here.
And yes, ever since I got into this damn religion, I can't stop seeing the damn number 23, but the eyes seek and the mind confirms what it wants to find.
I haven't read the Illuminatus trilogy. I'd really like to read it in my language, as I speak Spanish.
>Also
as a result of the events in my life, I begin to stop being an atheist and start to believe that Eris is a real deity, I am always on the threshold of material and essentialist doubt, which makes me more agnostic every day.
RAW defined it as the final battle between Schrodinger's cat and Pavlov's dog. Although, to be honest, I am happy with this chaos.
>How to get more userbase
There's a lot of Discordians on facebook groups, i learned some thing there.
i like the jew Kabbalist meditations It seems like they're hypnotized and even use same methods as hypnosis lol

Discordianism is old news. It was popular among early hackers/late hippies, leading to it having a little influence on the early internet, but with the mainstreaming of the net, it's but an oddity.
Unless we change with the times, we'll be left behind. LOLSORANDOM humor died long ago, political polarity has increased and overall our anti-cultural tendencies are out of date with what the culture we're against even is.
If anything, the Principia is very much out of date, and was more of a funny oddity of its time. Its contents are useless if not a little interesting today. The more anti-authoritarian edge of the publishings  by principiadiscordia.com's staff doesn't really scratch the itch of today's society either.
I say we bury ourselves in esotericism and extreme seriousness, the joke being our unserious origins. I'm sure that'll appeal to the polarized political youth.

Oh no, shitternet will leave behind the good things that once were! Clearly the solution was to become shitternet.

>I'm sure that'll appeal to the polarized political youth.
The youth are less political than you might think.
Genuine anti-authoritarianism is not popular, but I think they yearn for it. Perhaps they will learn that bowdlerized social media protesting is not the way.

The amount of 23s I've been encountering lately have been off the charts. Offline or online, doesn't matter. If I were to try and post them all in that 23 thread I would probably get B& for flooding. Not sure what this may portend, but it's been a source of much amusement as of late.
>the Illuminatus trilogy. I'd really like to read it in my language
Surprised that hasn't been translated into Spanish yet. A quick search and there's German and French. Finnish even and yet there are so many Spanish speakers. A tall order, but something should be done about that.

¿Hay unos sitios web en español donde puede hablar de Discordianismo como aquí? Quiero aprender castellano y descargar memes por eso.

I agree many of the youth are still desensitized and nihilistic like in the 90s. The time for radical antiauthoritarianism is coming back. The hippie and hacker ways are more relevant than ever. Hell, look at how solarpunk is doing. There are young people out there, gay as all hell, breaking into corporate facilities to guerilla garden while on mushrooms. The wheel is turning.

I am writing my own holy book for my cabal(the A.C.U.L.T.) of ramblings, rants, theosophical theories, divine conspiracies, religious poems (all original); I've even pilfered content from this site under copyleft and preservation (i do try to give credit where it is due, but sometimes anonymity gets in the way), as well as free advertising for this site therein. It'll have memes and art, too!

Currently I'm debating with myself if I should scour old archive sites for some more Discordian content. I also debate if I should 'publish' it officially or just email the Library of Eris a free copy to post into their collection.

I don't really expect a big splash, even in the local community. If anything I'm trying to iconify all the chaos in my head. But if future readers like it, then that is well enough for me.

Nobody's saying we start making tiktoks, but we should be visible in a way that's more appealing than those ugly old hippies on facebook.
>Genuine anti-authoritarianism is not popular, but I think they yearn for it.
Everyone yearns to be the underdog, but we live in a time where people are more likely to choose an authoritarian solution to force their will through the bureaucracy of state.
It shouldn't be about pro- or anti- authority, but about enforcing radical will and rejecting conventional morality/culture. I just hope we can achieve that without inviting in morons who want to reject the very basic animal instincts, and start smearing shit on the wall.
I feel as if Discordianism became almost a kind of antithesis of itself, pleading about seeing things through a different frame, all the while many self-ordained discordians keep themselves busy with conventional politics, screaming about american elections and what trump or putin might be up to. Not very interesting.

Hola
i found it there
https://lamanzanadoradaeris.blogspot.com/2012/10/trilogia-illuminatus-en-espanol-nueva.html

The link to scribd is down but you can maybe still read some pages on the blogspot
https://illuminatusenespanolparteiii.blogspot.com/

This Argentinian dude do a lot of work around the topic of discordianism...
https://www.blogger.com/profile/06296974703476815061
Are there Erisians in Argentina? It seems like the guy went to all the trouble of creating the entire Discordian lore in Spanish from Argentina lol (Another damn victory for the country.)
However, I could swear that a publisher recently released a Spanish version, but it is not by this author maybe.
This is pretty much the only great imageboard left.  I used to love Uboachan, but Seisatsu turned it into a pedotranny Discord server and now it's dead as fuck anyways.  This site is dead as fuck too, but at least this site is still high-quality.  I just really wish that this place were more active.

we are. This website. The zines.
I schism with the belief that a fundamentally esoteric religion should market itself in any way besides that which aligns with its obscurantist ethos. Not My Cabal.
>It shouldn't be about pro- or anti- authority, but about enforcing radical will and rejecting conventional morality/culture.
What do you think "radical will" and "rejecting conventional morality/culture" are? What do you think they amount to in practice?
>all the while many self-ordained discordians keep themselves busy with conventional politics, screaming about american elections and what trump or putin might be up to.
Yes it's very unfortunate that politics affects us and deciding that you don't care is an expensive luxury. I have yet to see any discordians that truly believe these things to take primacy over the worship of the goddess Eris. Then again, I'm not hip to what the old farts on facebook are up to.
