Wylie on Brainwashing : “One thing you want to do is identify the type of person you could exploit and undermine them psychologically. They’d find people who were less resilient psychologically… you essentially tried to exacerbate distrust and paranoia.” forbes.com/sites/jeffkauf…
Cambridge Analytica weaponized propaganda that was spread via operatives planted into Facebook groups. People thought they were talking to their peers. They were fooled. It was a military op.
CA took data that we provided via online surveys, Amazon wish lists, our Facebook posts, shares and Twitter likes and retweets and built profiles to target us. They fed us comments that affirmed our beliefs and comments. They intensified emotions and created division.
People heard Trump say “it isn’t a campaign- it’s a movement” and they agreed because they really FELT like they were part of a ‘huge’ cohesive group. They believed others were feeling the way they did....be abuse their views were validated by bots...
Wylie saw the similarities in military manipulation in dealing w terrorists and the way regular citizens were being deceived, manipulated, undermined, exploited and coerced. He became a whistle blower and started exposing the brainwashing.
