An anti-Trump Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal is planning to deploy an information warfare tool that received initial funding from DARPA, the Pentagons secretive research arm -- transforming technology originally envisioned as a way to fight ISIS propaganda into a campaign platform to benefit Joe Biden.
The Washington Post first reported that the initiative, called Defeat Disinfo, will utilize "artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the presidents claims on social media," and then attempt to "intervene" by "identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president."
Social media guru Curtis Hougland is heading up Defeat Disinfo, and he received the funding from DARPA when his program was "part of an effort to combat extremism overseas." He explained in an interview with the Post that he was unhappy that top social media accounts often supported Trump, and had effectively defended the president in recent days from claims that he had suggested Americans inject themselves with disinfectant.

Defeat Disinfo — And once again we see the name is the OPPOSITE of what they will actually do—which is to defend and spread lies and suppress the truth.
And I could scream every time I hear that lie about injecting disinfect. The President did no such thing. Nor did he say anything about drinking bleach.
I watched that news conference live. And after the stupid tweets, I watched it again. After a presentation about the effectiveness of sunshine and other things on killing the virus. POTUS said something like wouldn’t it be great if there was something which could be used to clean the body.
In fact there is an old therapy involving UV light:

In referring to ultraviolet light, Trump pointed to a proven medical treatment, says Thomas Fagan, founder of the Global Pandemic Consortium. UV light has been used in medical circles for decades to treat cancer, autoimmune diseases, graft-versus-host disease, and an array of other illnesses.
And POTUS never said people should do it. He merely said it should be studied to see if something new could be figured out. And I thought, well I’ve heard for years that sunshine is the best disinfectant.
Then some dumb reporter -who apparently thinks bleach and Lysol etc. are the only thing that disinfects—said Would you ever do that though—inject disinfectant or maybe he said bleach-don’t remember exactly.
The reporter asked the question of the guy who gave the report, but POTUS stepped in immediately and said NO-it would not be an injection.
It was a stupid A$$ reporter’s idea-not POTUS. I wish all these lying scum would be struck with an illness that takes their voice and renders them unable to write, until the election is over(and maybe longer). Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
And tested it on ISIS, claiming thats what it was for.
“Stanley McChrystal”
Can that useless POS please just up and cease existence in a tidy fashion somewhere?
Preferably in the communist hellhole of his choice, elsewhere and leave us alone?
Which is why so many of us feel that we are in the end times.
This sets the stage for world dominion by the antichrist as nothing else could.
Hmmmm
Sounds like a war against free speech and our electoral process. Is this legal, or does it matter because Commiecrats are doing it?
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Wondering if this is what hit my email?
DNC Suppression Of Free Speech with DARPA algorithms bump.
Unbelievable.
Looks like they sent out a (this past) Sunday memo directing ALL operators to say that the #BidenRiots are actually Trumps fault.
This sets the stage for world dominion by the antichrist as nothing else could."
Yes indeed! Well said...
I wouldn’t be a bit surprised. There is a total information war being waged against the right by the left. It is now a banning offense on Fakebook to post anything positive about Kyle Rittenhouse. As one small example.
