Information warfare continues. Thread. Republican voters are bombarded with readymade meals served by Putin's chef Prigozhin's troll factories and their affiliates. There are 1) "copy and paste" ready sentiments #disinformation #Elections2020
2) Anti-Biden, anti-Democrats, anti-democracy, "Soros", "Satan", anti-antifa, "COVID is a hoax", "pedophilia" themed memes and posts injected into Russian-speaking FB groups and spreading to the common information space.
3) A Facebook group hashtag Stop the Steal that spread election misinformation and incited violence grew to 350,000 members and FB shut it down. Russia Today(RT) hissed. Hashtag, posts and memes are still floating around
To be continued--ongoing thread.
4) Off FB, Trump's campaign is inciting discord elsewhere NOW. Supported by his base on Parler. It might be invisible to us but we must be aware.
Note: they do have a sense of humor! A reply to this thread, no less. Thank you, уважаемый Джин75

#Trump just pulled another dog whistle by claiming fake victory and fake fraud. Russians already called his victory and paved the “fraud” 👇🏼Beware of lawlessness.
His base is agitated and ready. We need to be aware that we are in the dictatorship/military coup zone.
And here is the cherry on top—Republicans file a lawsuit aimed at mail-in ballots in PA. As planned, see ☝🏼lawandcrime.com/2020-election/…

Neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups, including this, 👇 were actively attacking communities around the US in 2017 already. It is critical to see them in context: Trump and the Kremlin back them up. A short thread. 👇
September 24, 2017. A group of about thirty neo-Nazis in white polo shirts, khaki pants and white bandannas covering their faces assembled in front of the community center, with a banner “For Race and Nation; Blood and Soil,” they gave Nazi salutes, lit flares.
Patriot Front, the group behind the attack, shares a rambling document called a “manifesto” on its website. “An African may have lived, worked, and even been classed as a citizen in America for centuries, yet he is not American." More here: medium.com/@ZarinaZabrisk…

Thread:#Biden NY Post is a Kremlin "deza": disinformation. This tactic has a long history. During the Cold War, the KGB HQs worldwide injected "deza" into the public information space via Western mass media, often obscure newrepublic.com/article/142344…
For instance, in 1964, a conspiracy theory about JFK assassinations was fabricated by Newsweek correspondent with the KGB help. In 1983, a small Indian newspaper started a rumor that the U.S. government manufactured the AIDS virus. cia.gov/library/center…
3. These days, newspapers, tabloids and social media are all weaponized and used to inject the message into the public space. A false accusation is produced, visceral images (visual/verbal) are used, often with graphic sexual content, as in the case with Hunter Biden's laptop.

#ElectionInterference is one of the topics for #debates. Experts focus on leaks, hacks and bots as seen in 2016, but the main threat is overlooked. Russia doesn't just meddle into elections and referendum around the world,” wrote Putin’s aide Surkov. It meddles with their brains.
"Russia meddles with their brains, and they don’t know what to do with this altered state of mind.” The Kremlin is waging information warfare: corroding the idea of democracy and planting new pro-Kremlin thinking. The battlefield is the brain.
The goal is sowing discord and confusion in order to demoralize the West. Words are a military arsenal. Language is a weapon of mass destruction of ideas. This is the war of narratives. Trump's and Kremlin's narrative: Democracy is dead and elections are rigged.
