Sanctions are just the hard/coercive forms of cognitive warfare that are visible on the surface. What's likely going on beneath the surface is the gaming of algorithms, the usage of 'digital personas', and more that seek to reprogram problematic individuals and groups of individuals from internalised "harmful" narratives.

Anxious!!

Last year I attempted to read Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell, but put it down: too much like sci-fi. Goodness, now it's here!

Humans are doomed for destruction.

As with everything in life, whether it concerns nature, (electronic) technology, politics, or any other field of study: the more you zoom in on (sub)domains, the more complex the observed phenomena seem to become.

The punishments the people in your article have to endure are real (experiences).

A UN Secretary-General who crosses the line will be publicly shamed - for example by being accused of sexual harassment - and consequently forced to resign. When his Under-Secretary-General repeatedly blows the whistle, he will face direct attacks on his life and that of his family. These are not fabrications, but first-hand testimonies.

Individual outliers almost always lose out in a large, multi-layered system.

Blocking the bank accounts of the group of protesting truckers in Canada is therefore one of the greatest gifts from the corrupt system to humanity. For as a result of this violation of fundamental human rights, at least a large number of vaccinated, (initial) believers have begun to question the narrative and, consequently, the system.

Great work, Mr Karat

I noticed that mainstream academic books on propaganda endlessly kvetch about Russian and Chinese propaganda, or even Qataris and Emiratis, but never about NATO propaganda... Ironically, this makes these books on propaganda an exercise in propaganda in their own right - by way of omission.
