I 'know' that DSP has become a right wing Trumpette lobbying arm echo chamber that hates any mention that he's not clean and pure of soul and hates 'me' personally for espousing anything Centrist whatsoever but.. when even ultra loyal Faux News issues this report it should make everyone listen https://www.foxnews.com/tech/shocki...ter-social-media-campaign-against-us-revealed Shocking scale of Russia’s sinister social media campaign against US revealed Russia's influence campaign during the 2016 presidential election was a sophisticated and multifaceted effort to target the African-American community and sow political division among the public across social media platforms, according to new reports produced for the Senate Intelligence Committee. One report, which is 100-pages long, provides new context and details regarding the large scope of the multi-year Russian operation and the nefarious tactics it employed to exploit divisions along race and political ideology in the U.S. on a range of social media platforms, including Google-owned YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and on Facebook-owned Instagram. The shadowy effort aimed to support the Trump campaign, denigrate Hillary Clinton, suppress the vote, sow discord and attack various public figures. According to the report released on Monday, the massive operation reached 126 million people on Facebook, posted 10.4 million tweets on Twitter, uploaded over 1,000 videos to YouTube, and reached over 20 million users on Instagram. The report states that roughly 6 percent of tweets, 18 percent of Instagram posts and 7 percent of Facebook posts mentioned Trump or Clinton by name. However, Trump was mentioned roughly twice as often as Clinton on most platforms. The report, titled "The Tactics and Tropes of the Internet Research Agency," warns that the manipulation of U.S. political discourse continues in 2018. The report, which was commissioned by cybersecurity firm New Knowledge, Canfield Research and Columbia University's Tow Center for Digital Journalism, reveals that the Internet Research Agency (IRA), a Russian company owned by a businessman who is reportedly a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, hit on a range of themes and social issues over and over again across multiple online platforms, including Muslim culture, black culture, gun rights, LGBT issues, patriotism, Tea Party issues, veterans' rights, pro-Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein content, Christian culture and Southern culture and American separatist movements. However, the report says the most prolific, intense efforts centered on targeting black Americans and appear to have focused on developing audiences in that community and recruiting black Americans as "assets". "The IRA created an expansive cross-platform media mirage targeting the Black community, which shared and cross-promoted authentic Black media to create an immersive influence ecosystem," the report states. "The IRA exploited the trust of their Page audiences to develop human assets, at least some of whom were not aware of the role they played. This tactic was substantially more pronounced on Black-targeted accounts." The report also reveals the shocking scale of the disinformation campaign on Instagram, which is owned by Facebook. “Instagram was a significant front in the IRA’s influence operation, something that Facebook executives appear to have avoided mentioning in Congressional testimony,” it says. “There were 187 million engagements on Instagram. Facebook estimated that this was across 20 million affected users. There were 76.5 million engagements on Facebook; Facebook estimated that the Facebook operation reached 126 million people.” Researchers also note that in 2017, as the media covered their Facebook and Twitter operations, IRA shifted much of its activity to Instagram. “Instagram engagement outperformed Facebook, which may indicate its strength as a tool in image-centric memetic (meme) warfare. Alternately, it is possible that the IRA’s Instagram engagement was the result of click farms; a few of the provided accounts reference what appears to be a live engagement farm.” Set against this backdrop, the study warns that Instagram is likely to be a key battleground in the future. The themes selected by the IRA were "deployed to create and reinforce tribalism within each targeted community," according to the report, which notes that a majority of posts created by a given Facebook page reinforced in-group camaraderie. Partisan content was also presented to targeted groups in on-brand ways: for example, one meme featured Jesus in a Trump campaign hat on an account targeting Christians. Additionally, the report notes that the IRA co-opted the names of real groups with existing reputations among the targeted communities, including "United Muslims of America," "Cop Block, Black Guns Matter," and "L for Life." Researchers said this was possibly an attempt to loosely backstop an identity if a curious individual did a Google Search, or to piggyback on an established brand. The influence campaign began on certain platforms several years ago. The IRA was active on Twitter as early as 2014, prior to their efforts on Facebook and Instagram. However, since the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence only requested data from January 1, 2015, it's possible that some IRA content that appeared on Facebook or Instagram was simply not included in the data provided. The IRA also produced videos across 17 channels on YouTube beginning in September 2015, with most content related to police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. Meanwhile, a second report produced for the Senate Committee also paints a worrying picture of Russia’s influence campaign. The study by Oxford University’s Computational Propaganda Project and social media analysis specialist Graphika notes the scale of the social media onslaught. “Between 2013 and 2018, the IRA’s Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter campaigns reached tens of millions of users in the United States,” it says. “IRA activities focused on the U.S. began on Twitter in 2013 but quickly evolved into a multi-platform strategy involving Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube amongst other platforms.” Russia’s attempts to sow discord in society have continued long after the 2016 U.S. presidential election, according to the researchers. “IRA posts on Instagram and Facebook increased substantially after the election, with Instagram seeing the greatest increase in IRA activity.”
Faux News saying 'anything' negative about Trump is extraordinary In concert when they 'do' play fairer they get listened to more. Even by the likes of me. Now, who's still denying Russian collusion by one of their bank's larger customers??
hell no your summary is summarily dismissed shitty jobs are for slaves, yes. everyone employed is not a slave shitty job does not equal employed employed means to be brought 'into the fold'. slavery is evil but not because of reasons people think slavery strips you of your humanity over time by you i dont just mean you but your generations to a point where it damages your society we have way too many slaves right now the ratio is all jacked up when that happens the employed start killing off the extra slaves one way or another self-employment is one ideal, sure for many, this is the only way to be free but the clearest example of the ideal is the corporation a body of people that move together with the head as if it is one being people who enjoy each others company and can BE a company, together. where everyone is employed and there are no slaves where the employed are in the fold where they share the same vision as the head of the table where they are all pulling in the same direction not because of the yoke put upon their neck but the yoke put upon their heart that yoke makes them bring up the rear knowing that those in the front won't let them down the front always gets to the glory first, then they move on for greener pastures but the rear gets to sit in it and live the glory and if the front falls the sons of the rear step up and pick up the flag that is the immortal system most of us are born into slavery or we sell ourselves into bondage shit we give ourselves away to all sorts of slavish lifestyles the point is not that you are enslaved the point is what are you going to do about it? the first step is to have a plan of action how can I liberate myself from slavery, how can I be raised up even while I work in customer service? btw 'jobs' is the biggest scam in the history of the world. you want to create opportunities for people to help you succeed. that way you are indebted to them for their help. if not for them you would not have success and therefore you know and you feel a duty and respect for your employees but if all you have for me is jobs jobs jobs then that is slavery whenever i hear politicians pandering to black people about how they will get them more jobs I cant help but lol you know why we have a war on unemployment? because too many slaves out there not working and there is a type or a form using Greek terms, or a ghost or a spirit using biblical terms... that cannot stand to see another person not work while you are working. there is this huge stress created in the hearts of some people when they know that this other person is not working while he has to go to work everyday i have seen that kind of hate those were the slave drivers of the past the whip crackers! the only point you possibly maybe sorta understood was my point about going west but I think that was merely by accident because this is the end of the royal road. unless you believe that west of la paz the pacific ocean hides the old road to the city of peace. you know the problem with north, south, west, and east? they are like your GPS not always accurate you might think you are standing in the west but did you look up in the sky to the star in the north? is it straight overhead or is your view askew? before you finish the race you must first know your pole position.
how else can you be free if you are not a slave? only a slave can know freedom if you have never been a slave then you have never known freedom and the life you have probably felt like slavery which is why you had to rebel at x-teen. just like only a sinner has need for a redeemer but nobody wants to think they a slave or be called one just like nobody wants to admit they are a sinner that needs to be redeemed funny we dont like to be slaves yet we all have a proof of purchase number how else you gonna know when your ticket is called?
Slavery is liberty Liberty is freedom Freedom is merica Merica is slavery Slavery is all of us All of us are slavery
https://www.dangerous.com/49809/hal...stage-for-money-at-adult-gay-bar-in-new-york/ Kid needs to be taken away from parents Parents should be thrown in prison and placed in gen pop Everybody involved with the exploitation of this kid needs to be in jail and placed in gen pop This is horrific Let me guess, homophobic and/or transphobic tho, right I'd guess that poor kid has probably been sexually abused most of his life, fucking disgusting. There isn't a place in this world for pedophiles, no safe spaces for them even though democrats are trying
Of course they are, how dare I state your thoughts with less riddle? The nerve. LOL So true we agree fully Yep, this is the only thing that 'can' happen with massive consolidation of wealth For this I remain forever in debt to @LAdiablo's dad living that life lesson. 7 startups and 30 years later I've employed 120-140 humans who's lives mattered to both of us Agreed again having been part of some super dynamic teams over the years that 'changed the world' in their own way Yep we agree again.. provided the entity survives that long and...? Having a plan is indeed a start but merely the first pebble of a path forever long. Always uphill at that but the view... Yep so true again. Every single time some blowhard in politics or media touts such nonsense you have thus been notified that they know shinola Yep once again. You best quit claiming that we're arguing LOL Yep again. Alas the blacks that I'm personally friends with could care less for they are in elite enough tax brackets that this is nothing but troll bait to them too. Still your truth is agreed. Yep we agree hugely this time. I too have seen it too many times. Mostly displayed by the ignorant of organizational value but by kismet positionally empowered. #whiteprivilage ssshhhhh... OK cheap insult pandering to the unwashed DSP masses granted but still I offer that you should better differentiate our thoughts before claiming how little "I" understand. My friend it is wise for each of us to acknowledge that we use the other as a 'straw man' in our replies. Most should also recognize that I use @LAdiablo for the same illustrative purposes.. however lost on DSP readers...who loath me for doing so Yeah we agree again although I hesitate to offer the obvious truth of #whiteprivilage yet again even as it applies I came from very po' folks, broken family yada yada aside but was inspired by two very keen entrepreneurs early in life each of whom shaped my view of making each day 'not' a job, not a slavish duty to some other mans dreams. May I point out yet again that you claim I grok little of your platform and yet you do a better job of laying out mine than most. I thank you, once agin, for your willingness to apply free floating neurons to the current issues of Life when so many care so little.. except for self validating memes.. LOL
Wow man that is fucked up. This is a sick damned world we live in. Taken away is not enough to these scum of parents. General population truly is also not enough. I'd gladly blast you over other posts but I'm with you 100.00% on this one. Kids are not meant to endure this shit.. man this steams me.. How can this have been published and no one arrested yet?? ARRRRRRRGGGHH FUUUUUCCCKK!!!! Who are these people.
Much improved Cap. Just tone down all that white priv mumbo jumbo because duh. You know of Juan Gabriel? He was the Elton John of Latin America. Dude is super gay but never talks about it and is super conservative. But he is the most obvious gay guy in the world. It's not even a secret but nobody ever brought it up to him. When some press guy that didn't understand actually asked him personal questions about his private life he would laugh and just say that things that are self evident don't need to be explained because that is for silly people who ask questions whose answers everyone already knows.
Why TF are they applauding his being 'the youngest drag queen' ever?!?!? I'm not getting a sense that the parental units 'support' his interests and tastes so much as they are profiting madly off of him.. which pisses me off. Next WHO WATCHES THIS DRIVEL?? So three tranny drag queens adore him? And ... So? How is 'that' worth televising? Also I couldn't see any reason to watch past the tranny's giving him makeup, condoms, dance lessons and a Prince Albert piercing coupon The entire video was disgusting
I got you bro So do not confront whites acting like hypocrites pretending that white privilage doesn't exist because that would be like asking a flaming gay singer about being a flaming gay? It's obvious. Dude once in a while you make perfect sense.
Super dumb comment that we defeated ISIS. I don't view ISIS as a person or a group but as an idea, an idea that must destroy western civilization and I do not see it going away, ever. ISIS may be weak now but they will recover and plot a massive terror attacks against us then we will be back again. I may be reaching a bit but with all the talk of the military building the wall and him reallocating funds around so congress doesn't need to pass the spending, this seems as though he's just trying to reduce the military spending in Syria and use the funds saved to build the wall. If that is the case I wish they would just state it and not the dumbass statement that ISIS is done because they aren't and never will be. Only way we keep them weak is with our presence and support with our "allies" in the middle east. I don't know if I want our troops in Syria or not but this is a weak look for Trump.
even gay friends are saying this is way over the line but hollywood and academia has long been soft toward pedophilia so really not so surprising this is where its ending up revolting and disgusting
Luckily Trump for all his faults does not care if he looks weak if it gets in the way of his agenda. He cares of course, but he plows on. That is a good character trait.
i know what you're saying and i agree at the same time the people have rarely spoken louder than they did when they voted the man in and now he has this solid wall of voting democrats that will never allocate a dollar toward the wall as well as the repubes who don't want the wall either since it doesn't make cheap labor as easy i don't know why in the fuck we are even in Syria tbh but if thats how he gets the money around these scumbag senators then so be it could have left out the defeated part i hope he really sticks to his guns and shuts down government and whatever else it takes controlled immigration is the way it needs to be i don't think many people are considering how close this country is to civil war
Trump is never building a wall. He never was. Its politics. While folks rail over the wall for 4 years he gets other shit done. The wall talk will also get him money for other things he does. And ultimately the wall will just be more fencing. You really think all those Texans are gonna let Trump use eminent domain to cut a wide berth through their pastures to construct the wall? The wall requires massive infrastructure to get huge trucks and other equipment to the building sites. That will destroy a lot of grazing land and artificially 'fence in' cattle who will see roads as boundaries. The wall cannot be built. Our border is not a clean line. It is all politics. As far as war. War is hell. Our guys get to come home for a bit. Before hell week starts again for them.
