Follow the Code of Conduct
-
Do NOT report posts YOU don't consider creepy
-
Strictly Wikipedia submissions only
-
Please follow the post naming convention: Wikipedia Article Title - Short Synopsis
-
Tick the NSFW box for submissions with inappropriate thumbnails.
-
Please refrain from any offensive language/profanities in the posts titles, unless necessary (e.g. it's in the original article's title).
Mandatory:
If you didn't find an article "creepy," you must announce it in the thread so everyone will know that you didn't find it creepy

Showcase by Radiotopia did some good podcast episodes about it. https://www.radiotopia.fm/showcase/the-polybius-conspiracy
Aside: Did someone recently change the default Wikipedia page to the Greek figure?
I have a preview image in lemmy (memmy app) as from the urban legend page but it opens to true Greek one.
