Astonishing.
Matt Shapiro, who is the operator behind the PoliMath account, saying he is all for unleashing “casual racism” on an unsuspecting American audience is altogether shocking and banal that it boggles the mind. While Matt’s comment may be in jest, it is exactly the type of content Musk has intended to spread far and wide on his tool.
Musk bought Twitter at the bequest of Peter Thiel, with the intent to recreate GamerGate and QAnon using the acquired radicalization engine. Much of that work requires users to be unaware regarding what they are involuntarily participating in, gradually normalizing seriously disturbing messages into ordinary content before ratcheting up the volume, the racism, the misogyny and stochastic terrorism, posted from the chief Twit’s account himself.
How does one make people stay for the hate? Lying about how safe things are.
Bots proliferate as do single purpose hate accounts, most supporting the radicalization process by amplifying bad content. What isn’t publicly clear is how many automated accounts does Twitter still remove daily. We do factually know that the numbers once supporting such efforts included over 2200 employees that were incapable or unwilling of handling reports in a timely manner, just at Twitter Safety, to around 20% of the workforce the company once had.
Twitter is and has always been dangerous. One reason it has been that way are key operators like Susan Portnoy’s KassandraSeven account, seen here pushing back against Musk after previously running PsyOps in support of Elon.
Private contractors such as Portnoy, are used to direct narrative, amplifying content and in other cases attacking and destroying. Susan generally does the destroying, attacking attacks similar to what she does above to Elon until she is able to get the target to engage. Musk isn’t a target, nor can Elon likely see his hired-goon act out to create an illusion of separation. He did after all likely use Portnoy to attack supporters of his former girlfriend, Amber Heard, after Heard obliterated his manhood publicly. In that several weeks long attack, Portnoy ravaged and harassed every supporter of Heard, several that were seemingly manufactured for the express purpose of taking her off target after her work was noticed by the PR team supporting Heard.
Elon above is also lying. Twitter has gutted its content moderation team, allowed dangerous accounts previously removed to return, and made many other conscious choices to weaken objective truth.
After Jim Stewartson and I both reported on Bari Weiss having console access at Twitter allowing her, and presumably other disingenuous “reporters” to be able to see anyone’s personal information, this Daily Beast article was written a month after to cover things up after the fact.
Seriously, check the date above and below.
Weiss misrepresents the DO NOT TAKE ACTION heading above. Libs of Tik Tok shown above on the console was protected as is Louise Mensch, KassandraSeven, Conspirator0 and a large number of accounts Yonder operates. Any action taken against those accounts needed prior approval to suspend or ban. Here below is what Weiss had added to the Daily Beast CYA well after the fact article.
The above is nonsensical without knowing Yonder operatives whose job on Twitter has been to control the platform narratives has been adamantly stubborn regarding this detail ever since Stewartson identified Weiss used a console. With Weiss telling the reporters to add such an obscure detail a month after the fact, when only access to the Slack system had been mentioned before by WaPo, is quite revealing, showing the association between Twitter Safety and Yonder is ongoing as believed.
One of those things that Yonder did for Musk/Twitter was this, also included curiously in the Daily Beast article:
Yonder, which had been caught previously under its older name, New Knowledge, built 10K Russian appearing bots in what was dubbed Project Birmingham, funded by another PayPal mafioso, Reed Hoffman, to follow Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore to give a false impression Russia was buoying him up. That secondary side-effect of having the money (100K) seeded through Hoffman, is that doing so created a false association that Yonder was propping up liberal causes. A third result is that the whole Russia-GOP thing the company used had a cumulative effect in regards to lessening actual Russia-Trump and Russia-GOP associations.
The thing though about narrative control is when the narrators have to dunk on the bosses, so as to not look so obvious when running PsyOps, or psychological operations.
Musk has been manipulating public perception for years if not decades using consulting firms like Yonder. With how busy I have been this past week spending much of that time in the car going cross country in-between two major family celebratory events, I would “likely” have completely missed this tidbit had it not been for Susan Portnoy. Thanks.
Headlines of Musk misleading Tesla investors with Tweets and videos to grossly boost his own personal fortunes were not the only PayPal Mafia news that should draw intense scrutiny from Federal investigators. Here is Elon’s partner in the whole Democracy demolition cashing out on another of their machinations.
The thing about Crypto, besides being a honey-pot for investment and criminal enterprise, is that the creators of the tech controlling the code hold all the power and control over the market.
I previously wrote about a Magic the Gathering player years ago selling out a large collection of the most valuable cards, with the only stipulation that he would need to be paid in BTC, not cash on Facebook. Doing so right before market manipulation caused Bitcoin to surge made whomever that was insanely wealthy, placing a “bet” that at its peak sale price before the big guns retired their tokens could have had a return with a multiplier of x250.
Thiel and Musk are literally robber barons of wealth manipulating public perception far better than Donald Trump did to remove vast sums of wealth from the economy and to direct that capital towards more ambitious ventures like Democracy-killing PsyOps.
