1) Russian disinformation doesn’t act upon opinion. It acts upon people’s perceptions, by building narratives created to be compatible with their existing perceptions. Here you can see why this is an extremely effective method. Let’s continue.⬇️ Image
2) Because of this you see below, you can see why Russian disinformation that assimilates itself into MAGA perceptions is very difficult to defeat. Notice how the Hurricane Helene disinformation continues despite govt attempts to stop it. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
3) Here’s the entire article. When Russian disinformation becomes indistinguishable from MAGA ideology, then it becomes part of the accepted set of perceptions. Therefore, MAGA views criticism of Russian disinformation as an attack on MAGA itself. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
Image
4) See that circled part? That’s how some subtle and constant inputs of Russian disinformation acts upon influencing MAGA perceptions. It becomes “normal” and they don’t detect anything markedly different. Thus, they trust what they’re told. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
5) Here you can see why Russian disinformation created to assimilate into existing MAGA perceptions doesn’t need to be based on reality. So you can say, “the govt controls the weather” and no matter how absurd it sounds, it will be believed no matter what. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
6) So once disinformation is absorbed into the existing perceptions, it influences thoughts, then attitudes, then behavior. This would be key if you were trying to, for example, incite civil unrest or disorder. Or, at the least, resistance to the federal govt. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
7) You present a false view of the world to match their existing perceptions. They recognize it as “their own” and eventually this leads to action. People refusing help from FEMA, for example. Russia proved this disinformation weapon works during Hurricane Helene. Also⬇️ Image
8) Russian disinformation creates its stimuli to be compatible with the existing biases of MAGA within MAGA perceptions. Then the way MAGA interprets events will be based upon that. Therefore, FEMA=fed govt=bad=resist FEMA. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
9) By assimilating itself into perception, Russian disinformation becomes a psychological weapon. It can quite possibly destroy or seriously damage the social cohesion towards civil society of those who succumb to what it says and tells them to do. Let’s keep going⬇️ Image
10) Look at this one again. If you create a psychological weapon that assimilates into the existing perceptions of the target group, not even reality can necessarily change those perceptions. That’s why you see absurd things believed despite evidence to the contrary. Because⬇️ Image
11) As we saw here, once the psychological weapon has been successfully assimilated into the perceptions of the target group, you have these issues listed here. That is: The Russian disinformation is fully assimilated into MAGA perceptions and MAGA can’t tell the difference. Image

Current Russian disinformation motives. This has been going on for some time now.

1) The Trump administration has fired Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) staff. Now, Trump is going to tell you this is a “Democrat program”. I will now prove to you that it is NOT. So let’s begin⬇️

abcnews.go.com/Politics/menta…
2) SAMHSA helped create Arizona’s SMI program. In a nutshell, what it does is provide free behavioral health services to those eligible—regardless of income. It’s not means tested. Free meds, therapy, and so forth. Let’s continue⬇️ Image
3) The program is successful for many reasons. Now, the GOP has explained mass shootings by saying “we have a mental health crisis”. Yes, and this is how you fix that. You create programs like this. Let’s continue⬇️ Image

1) This order just came down expanding Trump’s illegal hybrid civil war against blue states. What’s a hybrid civil war? I’ll post the thread about it at the end of this one. I have this entire Trump order in this thread, so let’s begin⬇️ Image
2) This order is to these three officials. The Governor Illinois is not mentioned. And why? In Trump’s eyes, he is an enemy combatant until such time as he surrenders and submits to Trump. You will see that in the order. So let’s keep going⬇️ Image
3) So the order starts like this. They’re trying to make the case that they’re under a coordinated attack by hostile forces. Probably as a lead up to invoke the Insurrection Act. Let’s continue⬇️ Image

1) ATTN deployed National Guard personnel:
You will not be taking your kids trick-or-treating for Halloween. You will not be spending Thanksgiving with your families. You will be extended and you will not be spending Christmas with your families. Ask your Senators WHY.
And⬇️ Image
Image
2) Did you know you have the right to communicate with your Senators and Representatives? You do. And you should. Ask them why you are being used to intimidate lawful protests. Ask them why they are silent as this is done. You have the right to do this. And⬇️ Image
Image
3) This is but one resource. There are many, and if your chain of command—including the Commander-in-Chief have put you into this unconstitutional position, you have the right to tell your Senators and Representatives so. And⬇️

1) Trump is waging a hybrid civil war against the American people with the collaboration of red state governors. Here’s how this hybrid civil war works: The federal govt and red states are warring upon blue states and cities to force submission to Trump alone. Let’s see more⬇️ Image
2) Here, Abbott issues a threat boasting of the killing power of the Texas National Guard—and it’s a warning to the blue states who might use their National Guard to oppose them. But see that “our country” part? We need to discuss that next⬇️ Image
3) “Our” here refers to Trump’s and the red states. The blue states are the enemy. And so, “they defend” refers to the red states fighting the blue states to force them into submission as vassal states of the new Trump system of government masquerading as the former US. And⬇️ Image

1) When a government treats human beings like this, it becomes an enemy of humanity. Now, ICE hates being called Nazis, Gestapo, and fascists. But how can they be angry about having worked so hard to prove themselves to be that? They judged themselves to be that. Let’s begin⬇️ Image
2) This is child abuse, child sexual abuse, and sexual exploitation of minors by the State and its iteration of the historical totalitarianism secret police such as the Gestapo. Who gave the orders to do this? What Eichmann said, “Drag them out naked”? Let’s continue⬇️ Image
3) They loaded them into U-Haul trucks, which are not legal to transport human beings in. In fact, you can’t even transport animals in the back of U-Haul trucks. And I will prove that next⬇️ Image
