    Sorry, I’m not being clear. Not that you can see general upvotes and downvotes, but I could see everything you personally have upvoted or downvoted. So if someone in a community I mod is downvoting everything, I could see that and ban them.

    Edit: Or maybe you’re saying that I can do that there?

    When I first got to the bad place, the russians were much more lax about admitting they were russian. That was right around when this was written. We would even joke about it and they talk about it being just a job and such. It was kind of hilarious and sort of innocent when you look back on it.

    I can confidently say it was definitely not US who was targeting me. It might have been paid for by US citizens, but it wasn’t US people. Chinese and russians have different vibes too.

    It’s from 2015, second paragraph for the first part and a little more down on the second part. A russian, I’m assuming, propagandist admitting to what and how they’re doing it.

    I knew on the bad place that they were targeting me for just argument’s sake, but I could never quite put my finger on the how or why. This explains it. They also didn’t seem to care if it was a small subreddit or a large one, they went after me relentlessly. I was the one who followed influential people btw, not the influencer.

    I think this is a good place to drop this:

    “Once we isolate key people, we look for people we know are in their upstream – people that they read posts from, but who themselves are less influential. We then either start flame wars with bots to derail the conversations that are influencing influential people, or else send off specific tasks for sockpuppets (changing this wording of an idea here; cause an ideological split there; etc).”

    The goal is to keep opinions we don’t want fragmented and from coalescing in to a single voice for long enough that the memes we do want can,…

  • This is going to be unpopular, but talking about Musk and his “thoughts” or making fun of him instead of what he’s doing, is feeding into the distraction.

    “The opposition party is the media,” Steve Bannon, who helped run Trump’s 2016 campaign, told PBS Frontline five years ago. “And the media can only — because they’re dumb and they’re lazy — they can only focus on one thing at a time.”

    So the solution, per Bannon? Overwhelm them.

    “All we have to do is flood the zone,” he said. “Every day we hit them with three things. They’ll bite on one, and we’ll get all of our stuff done, bang, bang, bang. These guys will never — will never be able to recover. But we’ve got to start with muzzle velocity.”
