Well, I was writing about it years ahead of any public acknowledgement by Facebook, which came before the IC report.
That's because I study unconventional warfare and constantly came into contact with their content.
All of my family members and friends did, too.
One medium sized YT channel can have several mio subscribers. Why wouldn't it be possible to collectively create a following of 127 mio on FB?
And all of them ended up brainwashed as well.
Hell, my grandmother thought Europe had entirely burned down.
She literally thought Europe was gone.
Physically gone.
lul
And she didn't believe anything to the contrary, fought with me tooth and nail.
bahahahaha omg
And my mother became a radical leftist by following IRA pages, too.
But did she turn into a lesbian? That is the real question <:thinkgon:560211224923734026>
This shit isn't funny, man.
The active measures campaign is substantially on a greater scale than ever was performed during the Cold War, back when the Soviet Union was still around.
The Cold Cyber War
Listen our country has been disunified since the revolutionary war. The civil war and the 60’s
I believe those to be caused by internal factors rather than Russia or any other outside force
But the point is, they're not here to support any one ideology, rather they're perfectly content with creating and amplifying the messaging of all ideologies across the spectrum and entirely conflicted narratives on the same events, to disrupt our consensus on the very perception of world events, assuring our inability to perceive reality as it is, which in turn ensures we're unable to act within our interests.
That's not caused by internal factors, however.
Disinformation and controlling how people perceive the world, that's not internal.
Yes it is
That's an exercise of force that works on any population, even their own.
Mass media was biased
Even in the 60’s
Same with the universities and colleges
Indeed, but they're simply exploiting the openness of our platforms in this case.
I mean, it doesn't benefit you, regardless.
It goes against your interests.
They're radicalizing the very people you oppose.
I’m not pro open media either btw
I’d like a intranet
Any place where an overwhelming amount of young people and/or upper/middle class women go will inevitably turn left wing because those two demographics are, by nature, left-leaning.
I did a little bit of lobbying for that a few years ago, when all of this hit a peak, @snake.
I've since changed my mind, however, as USCYBERCOM now has the authority to eliminate their networks.
Trump signed off on it.
And the upcoming budget includes a major expansion of the requisite investments and policy changes we require to ensure sovereignty.
You work for the feds?
Yeah, I voluntarily cooperate with them all the time.
