    Cognitive Combat - China, Russia, and Iran’s Information War Against Americans

    Conservative supporters show higher susceptibility to Russian disinformation: survey

    US justice department says it disrupted Russian social media influence operation
    https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/09/politics/russian-bot-farm-propaganda-justice-department/index.html

    Yes, you may paranoid but they ARE out to get you.
    Essentially, "chaos to the enemy" is their philosophy...and its not just the US.
    And certain groups feed into it more.

    1. we NEED prevention...take is serious and invest into that...constantly
    2. we need to figure out how to punish and strike back. (if they can attack without consequence, then it won't slow, it will grow/accelerate)

    Not a hot war, think of it as a police action...subtle but painful, so they know to not break the trust because they will be "arrested" and "jailed" (not literal, of course)

    We cannot ignore or neglect anymore, there's too much damage and too much provoking anger and hate. It's unbalancing us.

    FBI searched homes of two Americans with ties to Russian state media

    OMG!
    How long has it taken to get to this point??? :oops:

    This was from 2016 !!!

    The FBI is pathetic for this case. There's GOT to be some type of inside conspiracy/bias element in the FBI for it to linger this long.
    Now granted, with Biden's new "god given" immunity powers and the fact he doesn't have to campaign and be politically sensitive, he can FORCE the FBI players to finally light a fire and shoot from the hip.

    Please let them go full Hollywood on these Russian rats.
    And hopefully they're also drilling down on the LARGE scale influence and corruption of our politicians and VIPs (likely paid thru by cryptocurrency...likely not even Bitcoin, but some tiny Russian ruled one, they pay for bribes thru)

    I've seen how nefarious the anonymous capabilities of the internet are, in just the corrupted take over of a tiny pharma company way back in 1997
    I can imagine what Russia (and China, Saudis, NK, Iran, etc...all the bad seeds) are doing in this day and age, with the tech at their hands.

    If I know them better, they've been getting away with it for so LONG, the arrogant fucks are likely being sloppy about it. (like a real-life, Mr. Robot level conspiracy and activities)
    Layers upon layers of deceit and obfuscation ...just rotting our countries efforts and lawmakers and other VIPs

    Russia is likely JUST one bad player. (a whole world of them)
    God knows what they're doing on the daily, throughout the world. (the US is not the ONLY target, they go after everyone, like Spectre in the Bond movies)

    Now, being a cybersecurity expert, who's done this on a deep-level...Biden's administration can not only go no holds barred on their asses, getting things
    But Harris can do so too, and do it with a justice orient mind and skill...again, no limits, granted by SCOTUS
    This would be a great help for getting to the rot. (the TRUE swamp)

    And it's not if, but WHEN, Quantum Computing comes about at a commercial level, it will break open ANY cryptocurrency coin like a hot knife thru butter. (like the movie Sneakers)
    IF the US or an ally develops it first.

    They'll be lifting a huge rock with the slime of bugs, mold and fungi underneath.
    And then you'll be seeing MANY people getting prosecuted and jailed, making Robert Menendez's trial looks like nothing by comparison.

    Let's hope that Biden/Harris and the new powers and tech can amputate the foul infected legs of this insidious web of lies and corruption.
    It would be about damn time. :confused:

    And anyone, who's taken $$$ for bribes or ethically compromised, or inappropriately biased toward radical groups, is meat for the grinder of justice.

    It's a race to rid us of the rot. :eek:
    Russia being one of biggest cockroaches...but not the only one.

    And PLEASE let it not be slow. :rolleyes:
    Expedite these corruption executions.

    'Knock it off': US announces sweeping crackdown on Russia over disinformation efforts

    That's great! :cool::)
    What took y'all so friggin' long??? :mad::confused:

    This seems to be a pattern with all government activities.
    They're a giant, they have a big hammer...but they're slow as sloths.

    No wonder they got away from the giant with the golden goose. :rolleyes:

    ----

    Oh yeah, NYT announced Iran is doing the misinformation too.
    I'm sure China is...NK ?? Yep ...etc and so on...
    It's getting crowded at this circus.
    Next thing ya know, the leopards will start eating faces.

    Make ya a bet it's not JUST misinformation and propaganda.
    They just arrested a Chinese agent in NY govt, doing racketeering, intimidation and influence peddling.

    It's likely also direct influence and bribery, done thru cryptocurrency, NFTs
    (hey, didn't the Trumps just get into this??? Coincidence?? Nah...it ain't new...been going on awhile, the Trumps are just clumsy, sloppy and late to the game)

    I wonder HOW MANY officials, politicians and VIPs have been corrupted and compromised???
    It's like friggin' Mr. Robot. :eek: (but I'm sure the original showrunner and writer knew this...just didn't have proof)

    And that's what it comes down to, PROOF.
    But spies live for fog, ambiguity and obfuscation.

    We're just a bunch of oblivious suckers, waiting for proof. :oops:
    "Pics or it didn't happen"
    Well, they just feed on that mindset...

    American creating deepfakes targeting Harris works with Russian intel, documents show

    Russia, stirring the pot and muddying the swamp waters even more....
    In the mix yet again...trying to fuck with another election. A running joke that's no joke.

    At least Biden is in charge now...and they're finally aware and on top of it to do counterintelligence.
    Russia has really wrapped itself around the radical right in America (a bunch of useful idiots)

    Putin's policy...any chance to create chaos and instigate trouble. He does this for many nations, in truth...it's just the America is his favorite target to spitball.
    Bullies will bully. :mad:

    But he and his cronies have a PhD in fuckin' with people...and going full Iago to the US's Othello.

    Make ya a bet, when Quantum Computing comes real (2 yrs from now) ...the cryptocurrency it hacks open will show TONS of bribes and influence, mostly to radical right players.

    Russia, China, and Iran are escalating online influence efforts ahead of US election

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/29/technology/election-interference-russia-china-iran.html

    All I can say is, TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE :mad:

    NYT and all the media should be ashamed of themselves...All the bad guys have been fuckin' with our stuff for YEARS !!!
    Only diff now, the US powers that be are now prepared a bit, at least.
    They should have been more, Biden should have emergency funded sealing up the gaps. He knew, Obama saw...sat down with Chump literally in the WH back when he won.
    And the bad guys have been doing it WAY past just Chump. Muckin' with tons...propaganda, false fronts, BRIBES, etc.

    For them to announce it days before the election is absurd! :rolleyes:
    It should have been banner headlines months ago.
    A long narrative.

    The NYT and the others are complicit.
    Put the nation at risk.
    Yes, they have a responsibility.
    They aren't an island...they OWE the nation facts to prevent tyranny.

    If only to save their own tails...what do you think tyrants, dictators and Chump would do once in power???
    Look at Pravda in Russia for example... :confused::eek:

    Idiots. :oops:

    NYT paywall.

    The interference has been reported by TMNM,
    but not nearly often & in depth enough.

    Russia Escalates Election Interference Tactics, US Warns

    No use being an asshole unless you can prove it. :mad:
    Not just Russia, but China, Iran, NK, etc...any group or nation that wants to instigate chaos in the US. It's the flavor of the month tactic for the bad guys to do to ALL nations they want to mess with.

    But to be honest, we probably do this to them.
    And the allies who don't want Chump are likely assisting in counter-intelligence activities and related white hat hacking.

    Again, the US was surprise by the audacity of Russia+ in the election that got Chump in the first time.
    They're not surprised any more and they're more than likely doing FULL countermeasures. And keeping it quiet so as to not look political.

    As a cybersecurity expert, I'm know of the layers of battle and back & forth that is now going on in the digital world...and nefarious influences in real life.
    Most of the people in all these nations are oblivious. (and with my new masters in analytics and forensics, I'll be diving deeper. Even on the Quantum Computing pace when it emerges. (Thanks for the paycheck or invoice :D)

    We'll see what happens.
    Maybe they'll reveal what happened.
    They haven't revealed much of what Chump has done so far, believe it or not. Things I'm aware of with my inside connections.

    Should be interesting.
    Hopefully we give them a black eyes...and a kick to the nuts.
    They deserve is for being the asshole they are.

    Russia ‘suffering 2,000 casualties a day’ as Kursk counter-offensive falters

    Russia ‘suffering 2,000 casualties a day’ as Kursk counter-offensive falters

    Good, I hope y’all drown in your own tears.

    And BTW, if y’all pissed, git rid of Putin
    He’s putting a crimp in your style
    And putting you in your graves early.

    Besides, only 1 crazy global megalomaniac at a time. :rolleyes:

    And Putin just got his apprentice in as the US president.
    (obscure reference, see what I did there?? :p)

    Y’know what happened in Star Wars.
    That shit plays in Russia too…it translates. ;)

    And it’s only fair, America just in a leader, a hybrid of Jar Jar Binks and Jabba The Hutt. :mad:

    I don't know...right now, the Russians are losing 2000 a day.
    And the North Koreans helping are getting buried too.

    A lot people don't know, it's the Ukrainians that stopped Hitler, not Moscow. They're tough bastards.
    And NATO with or without the US isn't going to let Putin any further...Not with the UK and France...and Turkey having nukes also. (there's a reason why Russian never took Turkey, besides NATO)
    And I'm sure Israel would throw their hat into the ring. China while is fine trading for oil and other stuff, certainly won't get involved with Nukes or Europe. Besides, they've got India and Pakistan to worry about. (both with nukes too)

    Basically, I see the US withdrawing from NATO and Europe will have to stand on its own. (but now with Finland and Norway added...and the Baltic Nations too)

    Putin is overextended, running out of peeps, even with prisoners, this is why NK is there...and he's losing ships left and right.
    He'll probably save face and sue for peace, leaving it "as is" where they are.
    But I doubt the Ukrainians will go for that...Russia has stirred up a hornet's nest. And they won't back down, especially after so much damage and death.
    Again, the Ukrainians are tough.

    Besides, Chump is going to have to deal with the $$$ and influence/power of the military/industrial complex...too many large companies, are making bank in weapons, bullets and supplies.
    Chump was able to stop Afghanistan because we had already conquered and calmed it mostly, except for rebel areas.
    Ukraine is a full war money maker for these folks.
    And one thing Chump gets is $$$, especially if he's getting kickbacks for his "presidential decisions".

    I think Putin has bitten off more than he can chew.
    and even he's tendrils around Chump may not counter the pressures of other US money makers.

    We'll see.
