charging an employee of a Russian troll factory known as the “Internet Research Agency” with “criminal conspiracy to defraud the United States” (related to election influence). These cases notwithstanding, Putin is clearly winning Russia’s hybrid war against the U.S. because Americans don’t understand how they are being manipulated.

REPEATING: "Putin is clearly winning Russia’s hybrid war against the U.S. because Americans don’t understand how they are being manipulated." - December 11, 2020

One of the main difficulties in countering malign Russian influence stems from divergent understandings of hybrid warfare. Russia considers hybrid warfare a form of conflict which includes strategic uses of economic, diplomatic, and influence operations, along with the use of military forces and espionage. By contrast, the U.S thinks of hybrid warfare as actions or tactics used before a conventional war. While the U.S. thinks it is managing pre-conflict aggression, Russia already considers itself in the midst of a strategic battle disguised as competitive aggression.

"because Americans don’t understand how they are being manipulated." - December 11, 2020

"a central part of a new system of political control. And to understand how this is happening, you have to look to Russia, to a man called Vladislav Surkov, who is a hero of our time. Surkov is one of President Putin's advisers, and has helped him maintain his power for 15 years [as of 2014], but he has done it in a very new way. He came originally from the avant-garde art world, and those who have studied his career, say that what Surkov has done, is to import ideas from conceptual art into the very heart of politics. His aim is to undermine peoples' perceptions of the world, so they never know what is really happening. Surkov turned Russian politics into a bewildering, constantly changing piece of theater." - BBC, Adam Curtis, year 2014

Let's go over that one more time:

"Putin is clearly winning Russia’s hybrid war against the U.S. because Americans don’t understand how they are being manipulated." - December 11, 2020

You know what happened less than one month after that statement was made by an establishment conservative think-tank declaring that Americans don't get the Internet and the mob mentality that Russia is inducing via hybrid warfare? On January 6, 2021, the United States Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., was attacked by a mob of supporters of President Donald Trump in an attempted self-coup, two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. They sought to keep him in power by preventing a joint session of Congress from counting the Electoral College votes to formalize the victory of the president-elect Joe Biden. The attack was unsuccessful in preventing the certification of the election results.

USA doesn't get how the "Internet Research Agency" and Surkov tactics work at all... from the linked article: "Russia has been waging a silent, “hybrid war” against the U.S. for years. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s goal: to influence American minds." - December 11, 2020

[–] LMDNW@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

Because Americans are entitled idiots with easily manipulated pudding brains. Heritage Foundation holds no small part of the blame for helping Trump and the other ideologues to foment discontent with the government by dialing in on the bigotries held by the idiot masses.

US has no "hybrid" options against Russia. Sanctions and confiscating Yachts don't prevent its high production levels. It has high gold production in addition to all other important resources and food. The Russian people know US to be evil aggressors in this war, and have a stronger determination to fight/resist than Canada does in the face of its own US aggression, because Canada has corrupt/bribable political leaders, and easily prone to division and gaslighting from those politicians.

Russia is accused of amplifying GOP division messages. It's unclear that US sources wouldn't be enough to create hate against immigrants, vaccines, trans/queer/diversity employment mandates, but GOP being thrilled by such hate, means they are by far the main responsible party.

Factual evil about the US, including admissions from politicians and mainstream media, and its BS propaganda that pretends to be informational warfare against Russia, but really is purely for domestic/western brainwashing, is general informational/factual warfare that democracies are more vulnerable to have truth influence them. US/west has still had remarkable success in maintaining anti-Russia propaganda. Israel and Iraq wars have far more detractors, and in Israel's case, truly extreme fascism is required to punish detractors from ruling class.

I agree. Russian population does not have the Apple iPhone / Apple iPad / Samsung Android / etc addictions of USA. Russia has much more domestic control of media systems. So it isn't possible to wage exactly same kind of war that the "Internet Research Agency" and Cambridge Analytica worked together on in late 2012 / early 2013.

US has no “hybrid” options against Russia.

Since year 2022 the IRA / CA content has all been fed into large language models as training material off the Internet. So Russia/Kremlin no longer controls this, and beyond the original 5,000 patterns the LLM systems can come up with any number of new variations. The only option is to teach "media ecology" and reason thinking to every person over say age 11 in society, a massive education campaign on how all people can distinguish fiction vs. non-fiction. Along the lines of Carl Sagan's 1995 book.

People, all the people, have to abandon their addiction to mocking, mockery of out-groups. That is incredibly difficult, I strongly fear the USA will not recover and will continue to fall into more and more anti-human self-destructive anti-science behaviors, as defined by Carl Sagan in 1995 as it has since every year since 2013 when the "Putin Media Invasion" started.

general informational/factual warfare that democracies are more vulnerable to have truth influence them. US/west has still had remarkable success in maintaining anti-Russia propaganda

I don't see that. Joe Rogan said just last month that he would rather go to Russian than Canada. I do not see people responding with discussion about what is bad about Russia, morality of good and bad. I see people just LOL LOL LOL LMFAO "Joe Rogan dumb" LOL, inside the Kremlin 5,000+ simulacra patterns of meme-speak. Calling people dumb and stupid is just a cult of out-group hate, it isn't actually teaching and educating. We need people to truly stop the mockery and focus on reality / truth / science, and morality of good. Not favoring "bad" like they are now.

98% of Russians have a smartphone. Some social media is blocked, but NYT is not. VPNs available. West blocks Russian media more than other way around. What separates Russia from west is not access to opposing narratives for those that seek it. It is tolerance for divisive misinformation. Democracy has morphed into craving the latter.

only option is to teach “media ecology” and reason thinking to every person over say age 11 in society

More people would realize that provoking a war on Russia is neither profitable or moral. Belief that CIA is truthful and wants everyone to be happy, and so "values based supremacy" justifies diminishing others with any and all lies necessary to keep you committed to the weapons and oil profits available from perpetual operation.

Joe Rogan said just last month that he would rather go to Russian than Canada

That is about divisiveness political issues, immigration, trans, vaccines that he somehow would feel a need to speak against in Canada, and fakes that he would have a harsher reaction than the welcome Tucker Carlson got for speaking BS there to a semi friendly audience. He wouldn't just go to UFC event to enjoy the event, he somehow needs to grandstand in Canada, where he wouldn't need to Grandstand against Russia policies. Political hacks, despite your wish for better critical reasoning skills, will have profit opportunity in disinforming their less acute adherents.

Yes, but they don't have the blind faith of everything in meme decoration. They don't have the graphic artists and talent like Hollywood / commercial arts. They weren't raised with Disneyland meme theme park and the level of content that Americans have.

More people would realize that provoking a war on Russia is neither profitable or moral.

We should be educating Russia, who is provoking a war? We should be giving lessons every day, all able-bodied Americans should be on social media and having video-conferences to Russians and teach them lessons from Malala and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. about good vs. bad. Instead of constantly entertaining themselves with superficial sports and kitten photographs on Reddit and Bluesky, people should be using the powerful Internet to educate and teach.

vaccines that he somehow would feel a need to speak against in Canada

... " vaccines that he somehow would feel a need to speak against "

Yha, I know the somehow, the Internet Research Agency since year 2013 in Saint Petersburg. "A significant portion of the online discourse about vaccines may be generated by malicious actors with a range of hidden agendas," said David Broniatowski from George Washington University. The researchers reviewed more than 250 tweets about vaccination from accounts linked to the St Petersburg-based Internet Research Agency (IRA). In February the agency was named in a US indictment over alleged election meddling. The IRA tweets used polarising language and linked vaccination to controversial statements about race, class and government legitimacy, the researchers said. One tweet casting doubt on vaccines that was cited in the study read: "Did you know there was secret government database of # Vaccine-damaged child? # VaccinateUS". Another that argued for vaccinations said: "# VaccinateUS You can't fix stupidity. Let them die from measles, and I'm for # vaccination!"

I personally telephoned the Pentagon and reported this pattern of insincere bullshit on Reddit in 2015, it was not reported in the press until August 2018. Surkov Student's and Cambridge Analytica have divised 5,000 patterns of this total mockery absurd and amusing idea patterns that are so irresistible Americans downplay and go LOL LOL at every opportunity. The number of people who have lost their hearts and minds to anti-science anti-reason thinking is massive. Joe Rogan is only one obvious example, and you can't see any of his fans speak up and go: "you know, that was covered in August 2018 in all the world press, even Fox News"

Cambridge Analytica is a western for profit divisiveness political engine. It's very hard to know how much right wing western politics vs IRA is responsible for right wing divisiness/success.

We should be educating Russia, who is provoking a war?

You are suggesting Russia is responsible for Ukraine war, instead of being provoked. That is exactly where Russians have the correct view on such misinformation. It's like asking Canadians to understand what assholes they have been to the US for past 50 years disinformation, and how they should accept their destruction.

I know Russia started the war. There were meetings all throughout 2013 and launched in February 2014 as "hot war". The IRA went online in March 2013, preparing people to downplay it. Trump says Ukraine 'should have never started' war in Ukraine Trump made the remark while deriding Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, whose country was invaded by Russia in February 2022.

It's called "winning the hearts and minds of the enemy of Russia".

It’s very hard to know how much right wing western politics vs IRA is responsible for right wing divisiness/success.

I give Vlad Surkov all the true credit. You can see my hashtags all about giving Surkov credit:

If you study Vlad Surkov's fiction storytelling and match it up ... Under the pen name Dubovitsky, Surkov has published a number of works of science fiction, including the “gangsta fiction” novel Okolonolya (“Near Zero”). Surkov initially denied that he was the author of Okolonolya and wrote a preface to the novel stating, “The author of this novel is an unoriginal, Hamlet-obsessed hack.” Surkov was subsequently discovered to be, in fact, the author with James Joyce's Finnegans Wake, you see Surkov is the only player in the world capable of pulling off this deep level of monomyth storytelling patterns. Vlad Surkov is 100 years past Edward Bernays / NYC.

www.LazyWake.com - "Finnegans Wake is the greatest guidebook to media study ever fashioned by man." - Marshall McLuhan, Newsweek Magazine, p.56, February 28, 1966
War and Peace in the Global Village is a 1968 book by Marshall McLuhan and Quentin Fiore. It contains a collage of images and text that illustrates the effects of electronic media and new technology on man. Marshall McLuhan used James Joyce's Finnegans Wake as a major inspiration for this study of war throughout history as an indicator as to how war may be conducted in the future.

::::: _____________
"Joyce is, in the Wake, making his own Altamira cave drawings of the entire history of the human mind, in terms of its basic gestures and postures during all the phases of human culture and technology. As his title indicates, he saw that the wake of human progress can disappear again into the night of sacral or auditory man. The Finn cycle of tribal institutions can return in the electric age, but if again, then let’s make it a wake or awake or both. Joyce could see no advantage in our remaining locked up in each cultural cycle as in a trance or dream. He discovered the means of living simultaneously in all cultural modes while quite conscious.” — Marshall McLuhan, from the book “The Medium is the Massage: An Inventory of Effects” by media analyst Marshall McLuhan and graphic designer Quentin Fiore, and coordinated by Jerome Agel. It was published in March 1967

It's not possible to blame Russia in 2013 for war started in 2014. The big Ukraine events in 2013-2014, are getting screwed by EU/IMF on a trade deal with EU. While there were mild Russian sanctions during that process, it involved a good alternative trade/support deal from Russia that could legitimately be sold as a win for Ukraine. The Euromaidan BS response was definitely a US sponsored movement. Ending in protests, blag flag mass shooting of protests, and then coup over Yanukovych. All of that is direct US sponsorship. Direct fomenting of secessionism/Crimea liberation by treating Odessa Massacre like Trump gets to treat Jan 6 2021 insurrection, persecutory laws and pension suspensions.

Even if you need to seek a 2013 Russia planning connection to eventual war, that planning could still have been defensive, and the overwhelming US finger and foot prints on Ukraine has to overwhelm any such connections.

I didn't just Fall (Tim F) off the Turnip Truck... You think you can just make statements to me and I blindly accept them as commands?

"This fusion of despotism and postmodernism, in which no truth is certain, is reflected in the craze among the Russian elite for neuro-linguistic programming and Eriksonian hypnosis: types of subliminal manipulation based largely on confusing your opponent, first developed in the US in the 1960s. There are countless NLP and Eriksonian training centres in Moscow, with every wannabe power-wielder shelling out thousands of dollars to learn how to be the next master manipulator. Newly translated postmodernist texts give philosophical weight to the Surkovian power model. François Lyotard, the French theoretician of postmodernism, began to be translated in Russia only towards the end of the 1990s, at exactly the time Surkov joined the government. The author of Almost Zero loves to invoke such Lyotardian concepts as the breakdown of grand cultural narratives and the fragmentation of truth: ideas that still sound quite fresh in Russia."

October 20, year 2011. Peter Pomerantsev

Not a word of your reply addresses Marshall McLuhan's 1968 book, Vlad Surkov's published fiction writings, James Joyce's Finnegans Wake level of monomyth deconstruction. I think you don't grasp at all what McLuhan was saying in "War and Peace in the Global Village" in 1968, how a University of Toronto NATO Canada professor was spelling out Vlad Surkov's year 2011 methods way back in 1968. "manipulation based largely on confusing your opponent, first developed in the US in the 1960s. There" ... !EchoLand@lemm.ee

So far, you seem inside the Surkovian simulacra patterns of responses. As if you do not understand the Kremlin's 2013 war Against Reality

It’s not possible to blame Russia in 2013 for war started in 2014.

It’s not possible

“In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the masses had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true." -- published 1951 - want a song to go along with that year 1951 quote? ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKwsiXOAVvk

Have you studied monomyth cults? Joseph Campbell's "Comparative Mythology"? Bill Moyers, former White House director? Middle East religion patterns of "alternate reality"?

It’s not possible to blame Russia in 2013 for war started in 2014.

This is the Kremlin misunderstanding the Arab Spring December 2009 to December 2010. I was THERE on Facebook. I married a woman from the Arab Spring and had my wedding in December 2010 in North Africa. The Kremlin + Cambridge Analytica in March 2013 mind-fucked the whole earth because they don't grasp Finnegans Wake! Please FORGET WHAT YOU KNOW - Chicago music rock band, Styx!

That's the real true problem of the world. People think bad things are hilarious and funny. Morality issues of being attracted to self-destruction of earth, wrecking good, etc. Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Vlad Putin, terrorists, murder, killings LOL LOL LOL amused all the time on social machines.

slandering of Russia. Wild accusations and blaming them for every bad thing

The bad things are people's attraction to hate, dehumanization, morality problem.

It's only useful to identify that it comes from Russia to understand it. The lack of morality education in domestic Russia is a threat to the world, if they decide to set of nuclear bombs or spread other weapons of mass destruction (diseases being the cheapest and easiest) because they are attracted to LOL LOL amusement and mockery of humanism, it doesn't really matter where and which nation it matters that nobody bothered to help people understand morality of good from bad.

All human beings can become monsters and choose bad and avoid good. The concern is the entire world. Technology to wreck good keeps advancing, it's what is in people's minds and attraction to bad that's the threat to every person on the planet.

Did the fascst ukraine coup and the war they started, hardly reported on by the moral west, come from Russia? Did Trump unilaterally break all the decades old missile treaties and put missiles in Romania or keep arming ukraine bcs he's a 'Russian asset'?

People think ELon Musk's ideas about empathy are good, for example.

Your incoherent ramblings and your fixation on Muskrat don't interest me either.
You are definitely trying to lecture me, and in a pretentious way at that.

You fail to see that what you're posting is propaganda in itself.

no, I noticed this 2013 war was huge and not just a social media trend and in 2015 I contacted the Pentagon personally to inform them there was a massive new anti-reality warfare underway (monomyth based). I haven't "Shut the Fuck UP" about it since year 2015.

It all started in year 2013.

Rot in hell, and as soon as possible.

You have been manipulated to dehumanize people, just like Donald Trump, Elon Musk, MAGA, Fox News audience, to strip morality. Yuri Bezmenov's four steps, demoralization, destabilization, crisis, and normalization. (n a 1983 lecture, Bezmenov explained how the Soviet Union had a very long-term four-step program for destroying America from the inside out) Demoralization: This phase involves the long-term process of demoralizing the target nation. Tactics include the infiltration of, and influence on, the target nation’s educational system, media, politics, and culture. The aim: to alter the population’s perceptions of reality, creating a generation of citizens who are unable to recognize or resist the subverter’s ideology or objectives.

genocidung Palestinians, droning brown people, regime changing countries, etc… I’m gloating at the hypocrites in that awful country now getting a taste of their own medicine

"in that awful country" - hey, Palestine has a very young demographic, and gloating about how they suffer is very popular on social media systems, but not values of dehumanization I support or encourage. Your morality really needs to be worked on, you can not tell good from bad. You just here to cheer on the suffering of those very poor and young people with shitty education in Palestine? "that awful country now getting a taste of their own medicine"... it's one human race, one Pale Blue Dot for all of us. It really isn't fun having people thinking it's good to wreck other human beings.

Baby-talk afraid to discuss how the world works. Everyone you disagree with is crazy, right? Muslims call the Jewish crazy, Jewish call the Muslims crazy. Very old game of media ecology. The United States of America White House isn't acting crazy and attacking Canada and trying to take over Greenland. No, the guy on Lemmy who is citing intelligent people from December 2020 about Russian information warfare today in April 2025 - he's the only mentally brain damaged person, right? So trivial, so flippant, so simple-think. A thought-terminating process you got going on with your brain. Like MAGA and Fox News audience, "liberals are all mentally sick and need medication".

In Germany in year 1933, did they all go off their medication? Or do you only speak in Twitter shit-bird Tweets of Elon Musk's X media platform? Did Cambodia believers in science and reason thinking all go off their medication when Pol Pot took over in 1976?

“When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; culture-death is a clear possibility.” ― Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business, 1985 !BackTo1985@lemm.ee

Medication doesn't fix these problems. Germany 1935 social trends of an entire nation isn't addressed and fixed with medication.

You need serious psychological help. You’re having a crisis

You better believe it! This nation needs extreme help from every psychological educator, every psychiatrist across the world! In April 2025, the Untied States of America Mass Mind is in wild egomania, talking about military force against Canada and Greenland, people are going nuts and insane over Elon Musk and Tesla motors, wrecking things. It is crazy in United States of America.

When I was in North Africa, Algeria, for the Arab Spring outbreak in December 2010, it was not even 7 out of 10 on the mass mind mania behaviors, and when I moved over to Amman Jordan for the outbreak of the Syria war in March 2011 - It was still around 7 out of 10. Right now in Untied States of America, the level of public behavior / mob mentality is at like 8.5 out of 10! I'm beyond words to describe how crazy and wild in anti-humanism and Elon Musk X egomania / Fox News HDTV egomania people are behaving!!!

You need serious psychological help. You’re having a crisis

PLEASE HELP ME! We need to deal with this crisis, ASAP! It's already too late for many people, we have to rescue as many as we can! Call to arms, teach as much as you can about cult deprogramming.

And I don't have time at the moment to talk about QAnon cults!

Nothing gives me more pleasure than that pure evil country destroying itself.
A gift to the world.

Bloomcole: Nothing gives me more pleasure than that pure evil country destroying itself. A gift to the world.

"more pleasure than that pure evil country destroying itself" - hey, Palestine has a very young demographic, and gloating about how they suffer is very popular on social media systems, but not values of dehumanization I support or encourage. Your morality really needs to be worked on, you can not tell good from bad. You just here to cheer on the suffering of those very poor and young people with shitty education in Palestine? "more pleasure than that pure evil country destroying itself"... it's one human race, one Pale Blue Dot for all of us. It really isn't fun having people thinking it's good to wreck other human beings.

“I couldn’t understand what the Taliban were trying to do. “They are abusing our religion,” I said in interviews. “How will you accept Islam if I put a gun to your head and say Islam is the true religion? If they want every person in the world to be Muslim, why don’t they show themselves to be good Muslims first?” ― Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban, October 8, 2013.

You are cheering on the failure of the United States of America, "country destroying itself" and you think I'm unhinged?

blocking you now

I call this information warfare tactic "Mock You, Block You". A turd little dumb-ass comment is made in reply to serious topics, and then the person proclaims THEY are blocking you. When they are the person with the turd little comments in the first place. This is MY posting on Lemmy. All you have done is say dumb shit. You just want the conversation to be a total mockery, which is what the entire USA is in year 2025, a total mockery.

Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag . com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change "the climate of discussion." "If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there's an article that's critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don't bother to comment," she says. "You don't participate. It's a way of just driving discussion away completely," she adds. "Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work." - year 2014
