The Dark Triad....or Tetrad? psypost.org/2021/06/new-ps… 
"narcissists are prone to overconfidence and deceit , hypercompetitiveness, reckless behavior, and risk taking and are perceived as bold, aggressive, and often even as discourteous" onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
"As social media and other online networking sites have grown in usage, so too has trolling – an internet practice in which users intentionally seek to draw others into pointless and, at times, uncivil conversations" neurosciencenews.com/drk-triad-trol…
"As all these examples show, though, the potential for Facebook to have an impact on an election was clear for at least half a decade before Donald Trump was elected." theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
“Fear induces withdrawal, stepping back, being cautious, fear and anxiety get us to stop and re-assess. ...we tend to seek out information that reinforces the idea that a threat exists—which is not necessarily the most accurate or objective information.” apa.org/news/apa/2020/…
Chapman does an annual round up of what Americans fear. Almost 80% fear corrupt officials...followed by a fear of a loved one dying at only 58.5%. Almost the same as "civil unrest" chapman.edu/wilkinson/rese…
One in three election workers feel unsafe because of their job. usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
"In 13 states, new laws or directives govern how race can be taught in schools, in some cases creating reporting systems for complaints... teachers and principals say, is a climate of fear around how to comply with rules they often do not understand." washingtonpost.com/education/2022…
“People react to fear, not love,” explained Richard Nixon, a scaremongering maestro whose cries for “law-and-order” were a coded message to white citizens worried about black crime. “They don’t teach that in Sunday school. But it’s true.” time.com/4665755/donald…
The brownshirts are coming to the "battleground" states" The politics of trolling and fear aka as terrorism is in effect. cbsnews.com/news/ron-desan…
Trump came into power using Chaos Theory. A system studied by gamblers and anarchists. "The study of apparently random or unpredictable behavior in systems governed by deterministic laws." Newton wept. oregonlive.com/opinion/2016/1…
1545 Gerolamo Cardano wrote "in times of great fear or sorrow, when even the greatest minds are much disturbed, gambling is far more efficacious in counteracting anxiety than a game like chess, since there is the continual expectation of what fortune will bring.”
Study of chaos extended to fiction. In 1975 Operation Mindfuck by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea in the Illuminatus Trilogy featured a midget Markoff Chaney as the fictional hero. The name refers to the Markoff Chain, a way to model stochastic chains.setosa.io/ev/markov-chai…
Politics is like gambling which has elements of chaos like combat. Management of chaos can be in real time by disrupting your opponent's planning. The Markoff Chain is also represented by the OODA Loop (Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) developed by John Boyd thestrategybridge.org/the-bridge/202…
The application of fear, stress, abuse and unpredictability against opponents are simply combat tactics. Yes Trump is vanishing but the strategy of chaos and brutal emphasis points during fear or weakness are not. They are here to stay. Learn them. backbonecampaign.org/ooda-loop-batt…
Use of chaos theory and exploitation in real time is being used by the UAE, Russia and other weaker nations who are gamifying foreign policy. A "game" that includes assassination, Trojan horses and false flag events to create chaos. Can America play? 19fortyfive.com/2021/07/the-ga…
Gambling, game and chaos theory is prevalent in use of artificial intelligence in drones and automated murder. A concept that translates into non state use of violence by technology. A computer can now game out the various effects of mindfucking in war. blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2017…
You will notice that Biden’s folks are OODA looping Putin. Instead of holding intel close they are publishing his plans. Sandbagged and ridiculed Putin has escalated beyond his abilities. reuters.com/world/europe/u…
Can Trump’s chaos theory be OODA looped by a bureaucracy? Probably not. Can the administration go outside the playing field to knock the players off the field? Absolutely. We did this to the Russians in Afghanistan using the Saudis. But for every action there are reactions.
The solution to Trump’s Tetrad Tantrums and chaos engine is to slide him out of the legal category and into the criminal category. Then it all makes sense. Mobs use unconnected chaos to survive. So does Trump. ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…
The problem with using F3EAD tactics (Find, Fix, Finish, Exploit, Analyze And Disseminate) to deal with chaos actors is that you get the next stupidest criminal promoted to Number 1. As General Flynn once asked me “Do you think we can kill our way out of this war?” Nope.
We all have to learn about how to counter the now standard practice of mindfucking and distorted realities. Amplified in war and politics using the electronic village of social media. We need to study the mind and how it is manipulated. But we don’t even teach geography any more.
Our best hope is that dark forces unite with our better angels to make fuckery too painful. Here is an example:
