Among the core self-identified purposes of JTRIG are two tactics: (1) to inject all sorts of false material onto the internet in order to destroy the reputation of its targets; and (2) to use social sciences and other techniques to manipulate online discourse and activism to generate outcomes it considers desirable. To see how extremist these programs are, just consider the tactics they boast of using to achieve those ends: “false flag operations” (posting material to the internet and falsely attributing it to someone else), fake victim blog posts (pretending to be a victim of the individual whose reputation they want to destroy), and posting “negative information” on various forums.

Our country has morphed into East Germany.

The article mis-identifies the target of these techniques, stating:
” “hacktivism”, meaning those who use online protest activity for political ends.”
No. Hacktivists use computer hacking techniques for political ends. When investigated, many are found to be agents of foreign governments or transnational movements, like terrorist groups or subversive leftist organizations.
Governments have to be able to fight back against covert subversive groups.
Well, the Russians are doing it.

The government manipulates information and opinion overtly, so I’m sure they do it covertly as well. This from today:
