NATO / USA lost the Hybrid War that was launched in March 2013 against the World Wide Web.

  1. Kremlin brags that only 1% of the manipulation Hybrid War content has been discovered and removed. NATO has entirely been unable to defend, 99% flies under the defense radar of Five Eyes (FVEY).

  2. Russian military was able to completely get past USA FBI, CIA, NSA, and whatever else the Pentagon has. Competely unable to defend the population against Russian Hybrid Warfare. “For years, AIVD had access to the infamous Russian hacker group Cozy Bear. That’s what de Volkskrant and Nieuwsuur have uncovered in their investigation.” “the Dutch intelligence agency AIVD penetrated the computer network of a university adjacent to Red Square back in 2014, only to later realize they had tapped into APT29, aka Cozy Bear, one of the Russian government-affiliated organizations that penetrated the DNC and targeted other US government departments”. “It was Dutch intelligence operatives that hacked into some of Russia’s own institutions – including their closed-circuit television cameras.”

  3. Putin and Surkov’s “Operation Matthew 4:19” global manipulation of everyday people included turning social media consumers into Russian assets of the Hybrid Warfare who deliberately spread measles and COVID-19 virus during the pandemic. Johns Hopkins University and George Washington University validated evidence going back to year 2014.

  4. Absolutely no defense has been found against this Hybrid Warfare since it was unleashed in March 2013. “At the NATO summit in Wales last week, General Philip Breedlove, the military alliance’s top commander, made a bold declaration. Russia, he said, is waging “the most amazing information warfare blitzkrieg we have ever seen in the history of information warfare.” It was something of an underestimation. The new Russia doesn’t just deal in the petty disinformation, forgeries, lies, leaks, and cyber-sabotage usually associated with information warfare. It reinvents reality, creating mass hallucinations”

  5. It is not only leaders and public figures. The Kremlin created 5,000 artificial reality screen games (alternate reality media consumer screen games) in late 2012 / early 2013 with Cambridge Analytica psychologists and psychiatrists to induce self-harm, egoism, self-destruction, anti-humanism, anti-goodness, reactionary thinking in the population. “Британские учёные из Cambridge Analytica предложили сделать из 5 тысяч существующих человеческих психотипов - “идеальный образ” возможного сторонника Трампа. Затем… положить этот образ обратно на всё психотипы и таким образом подобрать универсальный ключик к любому и каждому.”, “Дальше оставалось только загрузить эти данные в информационные потоки и социальные сети.”

  6. Russia openly gloated after 6 full years since the alternate reality screen game deployment, in February 2019 that the American People, We The People, are mentally owned / that Russia manipulated hearts and minds: Americans who worry about Russia election interference should stop focusing on such trivialities and instead realize that the idea that they have a choice over how they are governed is a mere illusion, Vladislav Surkov, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin, wrote in an op-ed published this week. “The illusion of choice is the most important illusion, the main trick of Western democracy especially…. The rejection of this illusion in favor of the reality that everything is predestined will allow society to reflect first on our vision of democratic development,” Surkov wrote. “Foreign politicians talk about Russia’s interference in elections and referendums around the world. In fact, the matter is even more serious: Russia interferes in your brains, we change your conscience, and there is nothing you can do about it.”

    ProfessorOwl_PhD @hexbear.net : forcing me to go back and forth along and around our conversation

    I’m FORCING you, huh? you are extremely dehumanizing in how you don’t relate to people who don’t conform to your demands of social machine usage, trying to shut down my postings calling out Donald Trump’s egomania and mental manipulation by Kremlin and Cambridge Analtyica.

    By the way, reports don’t just go to you.

    Yha, I know that, I ran a Lemmy site and contributed code and have been building social media systems since 1984.

    By the way, reports don’t just go to you.

    You are still bullying and intimidating an autistic person with brain damage because you can’t tolerate their methods of using social communications and English to express ideas on Lemmy platform. Especially since in April 2025 in the USA autistic people are actively being targeted by the USA government, and you know there are very few places that allow open communicators on mass dehumanization and mental manipulation of Cambridge Analytica topics.

     

    You found a weak and disabled person using Lemmy in a way you want crushed, and you use your extremely talented communications abilities to punch down and crush anyone who calls out the pain and suffering caused by Cambridge Analytica, Putin, Surkov, and Donald Trump’s cults / Rupert Murdoch’s cults / Elon Musk’s media cults.

    ::: “Asperger’s Children: The Origins of Autism in Nazi Vienna – review. The story that Hans Asperger saved autistic children from the Nazis is exposed as a myth in Edith Sheffer’s new biography”“Asperger did not protest about his more senior Jewish colleagues’ exclusion. Aged 28, he became the head of the Curative Education Clinic within Vienna’s prestigious children’s hospital. Sheffer writes: “In May 1938, Asperger began to work for the Nazi state as a psychiatric expert for the city’s juvenile court system. He also applied to consult for the Hitler Youth.””

     

    why do you have so many prepared links and statements?

    AGAIN, you are trying to “punch down” and shut me down on Lemmy with your extremely high talent levels of communications that I don’t conform, that I’m atypical, that I’m autistic and don’t behave like other people.

     

    ::: _______________
    “English, strictly speaking, is not my first language by the way. I haven’t yet discovered what my first language is so for the time being I use English words in order to say things. I expect I will always have to do it that way; regrettably I don’t think my first language can be written down at all. I’m not sure it can be made external you see. I think it has to stay where it is; simmering in the elastic gloom betwixt my flickering organs.” ― Claire-Louise Bennett

      You are still bullying and intimidating an autistic person with brain damage

      No, bullying and intimidation is when you go cross site searching down peoples previous comments to add replies directly related to the previous discussion. Bullying and intimidation is replying to someone across many comments, while continually editing those comments, in order to stop them from being able to keep track of what’s being said - I haven’t seen a comment about me doing that in the first place, but the “still” and inbox notices suggest it’s down there somewhere.
      Anyway, I’m not fucking impressed by you playing victim - this is classic DARVO, denying that you’re harrassing me in other threads, attacking me with accusations of ableism, and then reversing victim and offender by accusing me of bullying and intimidation. It’s absolutely disgusting that you’d hold up your disability as an excuse for such behaviour.

      your extremely talented communications abilities your extremely high talent levels of communications

      It’s not a talent, I’m also autistic, but instead of throwing pages and pages of irrelevence at people and telling them to excise some meaning themselves, I directly say what I mean.

        I’m also autistic

        You clearly have never developed compassion and comprehension and use your autism as a way to force conformity by leverage of the computerized “Report” system to shut down those you disagree with.

        I teach about remedial morality since you can’t tell good form bad, over on !RemedialMorality@lemm.ee

        t instead of throwing pages and pages of irrelevence at people

        Just because you can’t comprehend something in 15 seconds of your mental power that I’ve been working on since 2009, does not make it irrelevant. You keep PUNCHING DOWN over and over and over.

        DARVO stands for “Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender,” a manipulation tactic used by abusers

        Now you claiming I am the abuser. Exactly what Russia says about Ukraine initiating the war that Donald Trump parrots.

        There is NOTHING being published here that is in support of ANY government system, this is a human person criticizing billionaires crushing “the Little Guy”, but you want this post shut down and reported it. YOU are the attacker against “The Little Guy” criticizing Donald Trump in the White House of April 2025.

          The report system is meant for reporting rulebreaking or harmful content. You, on the other hand, have been trying to shut me down with a classic Gish Gallop of useless information.

          that I’ve been working on since 2009

          It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been working on it, it’s just noise that you expect me to be able to interpret in the same way as you did, make the same connections you did. I don’t have some special insight into how your mind works, so what you’re actually doing is blocking me from interacting with you by mystifying your thoughts.

          Now you claiming I am the abuser

          Yes, that’s why I explained the acronym by breaking it down to the constituant parts and relating them to your behaviour. It is transparent and I am not going to accept it.

          this is a human person criticizing billionaires crushing “the Little Guy”

          Get over yourself, this is a one-man crusade against Russia that ignores decades of american imperialism in favour of a basic “russia bad” narrative. Nobody else posts, almost nobody comments. There is no organic grassroots community here, it’s just you astroturfing.

          edit: Why the fuck does my inbox already say there are 3 more comments? For fucks sake, they aren’t even on this thread. edit 2: OK, Sparrow’s being so contrarian with the harrassment they’re flirting with nazi apologia, so I’m absolutely out.

            You, on the other hand, have been trying to shut me down with a classic Gish Gallop of useless information.

            You are using Gish Gallop as a “thought terminating cliche”.

            You keep trying to avoid understanding of the topics that are global and about the human brain, and making this about “Russia bad” bi-polar 1-bit thinking, no, Russia is people, human beings, and you only think in national terms and power terms.

            That’s why when I quote Dr. Martin Luther King Jr you can’t understand and say it is “useless information”. Because you think this community is about nations winning a war.

            No, humanity, 8 billion people have lost to this Hybrid War and Cambridge Analytica creating 5,000 artificial realities. This isn’t about USA vs. Russia, it’s about mass dehumanization of all people in all nations, the entire Pale Blue Dot.

            You use active measures to shut down what you don’t agree with. I’m still here, because I know what happens to people who say “love all people”. I understand your motivations to tell others “go kill yourself in a woodchipper”, you are anti-compassion, you are anti-goodness. You want to promote hate and killing of those your ego system disagrees with. That’s not a Russia vs. USA issue, that’s a problem of 8 billion people on Earth issue, everyone.

            John Lennon: murdered

            Malala: Shot in the head

            Jesus: Nailed to a Cross

            Dr. Martin Luther King Jr: Murdered

            You can’t stand the idea of someone with brain damage calling out that the world is heading towards mass dehumanization at the hands of brain damage, that I am a cannery in the coal mine of Planet Earth / Pale Blue Dot. And you want that message shut down.

            You can’t process the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr quotes you claim as “useless information”.

            No, I do not expect that. Repeating:

            that you expect me

            NO - I DO NOT expect that. You are the one in egoism who wants to shut down postings and communications you can’t immediately grasp and comprehend with zero effort. YOU are the one attacking and PUNCHING DOWN on someone who is faltering to communicate with the world.

            that you expect me

            I specifically created the !BabelTower@lemm.ee Lemmy community to educate you on that topic. “Tower of Babel”, to SET EXPECTATIONS that this takes many years to comprehend. It isn’t trivial, it isn’t easy, it isn’t simplistic.

            I do not expect that you traveled to Africa and Middle East in the Arab Spring and spent years studying conflicts between the major religions to know what Cambridge Analytica has done with the 5,000 artificial monomyth religion patterns they unleashed in March 2013. It isn’t trivial or easy simple subject like a Spongebob episode.

            There is no organic grassroots community

            That’s why you need morality lessons. You treat people as numbers like Elon Musk does with DOGE. You dehumanize people using logic computer thinking. You need to learn humanism, compassion, morality, urgently.

            Your compulsive action to shut down messages on Lemmy about Cambridge Analytica using the “Report” system, are symptoms of you having been mind-fucked by Cambridge Analtyica and lacking self-awareness of the mechanics of it.

            Repeating: You need to learn humanism, compassion, morality, urgently.

            You count that my messages don’t have a community like Elon Musk followers on Twitter / X media platform, you use counting as a method of measuring morality. That’s a mistake and you need to learn why. By your measure, Donald Trump has good morality and good ideas, because he gets lots of mentions on Lemmy media systems.

            There is no organic grassroots community

            You use counting…“a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right”

            “Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong to throw our lives away in riotous living. No matter if everybody in Detroit is doing it, it’s wrong. It always will be wrong, and it always has been wrong. It’s wrong in every age and it’s wrong in every nation.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

            That’s just a start, you need much more than that one lesson.

            Sparrow’s being so contrarian

            I have to come along to read your edits, you can’t bother to message me directly with an update or new message.

            You off to death-wish people and tell them to “kill themselves in a woodchipper” on Lemmy today? Shut down people who are in pain and suffering because of all the fucked-up social behaviors in USA who are trying to teach morality to USA people who clearly lack understanding and comprehension of what “good” means, as they flock to Twitter / Elon Musk / RFK Jr / Donald Trump / Rupert Murdoch for learning of morality.

            Your “kill yourself in a woodchipper” messages on Lemmy you don’t consider the “report” feature for, but when someone posts a CNN article about Donald Trump - you use the Lemmy “report” feature.

            No, I am not. I have extreme brain damage and you can’t grasp a single thing I have communicated, and you seem entirely unable to grasp and comprehend that the topic here is Donald Trump and Cambrdige Analytica and people who dehumanize using systems such as Cambridge Analytica has.

            this is a one-man crusade against Russia that ignores decades of american imperialism in favour of a basic “russia bad” narrative

            No, you do not comprehend in any way shape or form. This is about Cambridge Analytica and psychologists and psyciatry and world religions, James Joyce and Marshall McLuhan. You clearly do not follow or understand.

            this is a one-man crusade against Russia that ignores decades of american imperialism in favour of a basic “russia bad” narrative

                Not only does the court case change nothing

                are holding up an irrelevent court case as an excuse.

                The greater issue is the entire World Wide Web users / media systems users. people keep turning to the courts and people with guns, law enforcement, instead of asserting goodness and morality education on social machine systems like Bluesky, Lemmy, Reddit, Mastodon, TikTok, YouTube.

                There are people gong around posting messages on Lemmy saying “kill yourself right now in a woodchipper”, and I think that kind of dehumanization via machine systems and media systems is at the heart of why so many people are at each other’s throat.

                All hate is bad, the problem goes way beyond trans-gender… people hate each other over different religion storybooks, different messages on Lemmy, different HDTV news networks, different eye color, different hair color, skin color, national flags, you name it.

                The problem is the law and courts do not have any law that says “Love your enemy”, "love one another’, “teach compassion and teach love”, instead it’s mostly about men with guns, prisons, none of that is asserting goodness.

                Why aren’t we all using our free time on social machines to stop playing games - and address what is important: every day promoting that all hate, in every place, no matter gender or skin color or national flag or geography, is self-destructive and bad for humanity like Malala does?

                You come into this community, and you do everything you can to attack the messenger and insult them and mock them, everything you can to make a total mockery of serious topics.

                The posting was: Fact check: It wasn’t ‘in jest.’ Here are 53 times Trump said he’d end Ukraine war within 24 hours or before taking office | CNN Politics

                But all you want to do is attack Stephen Gutknecht, because you can’t stand someone small and brain damaged is begging for help in getting Donald Trump off the world stage and treatment for the brain-damage caused by Cambridge Analytica.

                You are anti-compassion crusader. You are an anti-humanism “active measures” agent. You are here to shut down and discourage in every way you can find that someone discuss the mass psychosis psychology issues of what is gong on in April 2025.

                 

                You want to take away this topic, remove this post: Trump sometimes emphasized that he was speaking literally, scoffing at critics who said he couldn’t end the war that fast. “I’ll get that done within 24 hours. Everyone says, ‘Oh, no, you can’t.’ Absolutely I can. Absolutely I can,” he said at one July 2023 rally in Iowa. He said at a Pennsylvania rally later that month: “Before I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after we all together win the presidency, we will have the horrible war between Russia and Ukraine settled. It will be settled. The war is going to be settled. I’ll get them both – I know Zelensky, I know Putin, it’ll be done within 24 hours, you watch. They all say, ‘That’s such a boast.’ It will be done very quickly.”

                I am absolutely not taking lessons in morality

                You clearly can’t take lessons in moraltiy, everything you have done in your life up to now you have avoided them. You clearly thing using Lemmy to tell people to kill themselves and messaging “Kill yourself in a woodchipper” is a good thing and you can’t even see that extremely clear situation is bad.

                You avoided Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, you avoided !Malala@lemm.ee

                You only see things in terms of your own self and Stephen Alfred Gutknecht in this conversation, you have “active measures target fixation” on me, and are unable to see the morality problem of death-wishing on lemmy machine systems to use woodchippers to “kill yourself” wish.

            You clearly can’t comprehend any information outside your filter bubble / echo chambers, and go around doing active measures to tell people to kill themselves in a horrific way with a woodchipper because you don’t want your ego to encounter love and compassion for all humans on all the earth.

What I didn’t know that day is that Bannon wanted to fight a cultural war, and so he had come to people who specialized in informational weapons to help him build his arsenal.” ― Christopher Wylie, Mindf*ck: Cambridge Analytica and the Plot to Break America, 2019

            t they’re flirting with nazi apologia

            Yha saying ALL hate no matter if Nazi or ANY OTHER HUMAN person on the ENTIRE EARTH in ANY TIME PERIOD. You have a massive literacy and reading comprehension problem. You are reactionary and shallow.

            My message you said is “nazi apologia” is a quote from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr in 1954, i’ll reproduce it here:

            “Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong to throw our lives away in riotous living. No matter if everybody in Detroit is doing it, it’s wrong. It always will be wrong, and it always has been wrong. It’s wrong in every age and it’s wrong in every nation.”

             

            nazi apologia

            Your book burning tactics of trying to have postings on Lemmy “book burned”. You are the one behaving like a Nazi using mental manipulation of people, trying to have content shut down and removed that you don’t agree with (which is what Nazi Germany did in 1930’s burn books they did not agree with). And you know what content you wanted shut down? Discussion of Donald Trump being insincere about Ukraine.

            You have some kind of pro-Russia pro-Dehumanizing agenda on Lemmy media this shut down that people learn about the dangers of meme patterns that manipulate the mind.

            It doesn’t even matter WHO released it, the meme patterns take on a life of their own. People become addicted to living in alternate reality and are unable to relate to people in competing systems of thinking, including scientific thinking of real reality.

            You can’t be bothered to understanding the concept of a “Media Cult” that goes beyond any human originators, how messages and symbols themselves can take over populations. !MediaCults@lemm.ee

            Nobody else posts, almost nobody comments.

            I really don’t want other people posting, this is a narrative that takes years to understand. This isn’t a meme community of free for all content.

            Again, you are using counting as a basis for morality of “good”. By your thinking, Rupert Murdoch must have good media content all over the world, because he has high counts of reaction comments. You really need morality teaching and understanding.

            Nobody else posts, almost nobody comments.

            So you see someone who clearly explains they have massive brain damage and are on their deathbed, unable to communicate with the world, doing the best they possibly can and you want to “Stand Up For Big Guys”, the popular content that Donald Trump generates all over Lemmy, mocking and mockery. You think popularity is the same as goodness. That Donald Trump “orange skin” and “poopy diapers” is good content because it has huge ratings on Lemmy. That’s the kind of thinking you are applying, anti-morality.

            Nobody else posts, almost nobody comments.

            Dr. Martin Luther King Jr was the first to finally grasp the World War Two problem shortly before he got his Doctorate Degree in 1955. In 1954, he expressed the problem of your methods of counting as a basis of immediate morality / popularity:

            “We have adopted in the modern world a sort of a relativistic ethic … Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong to throw our lives away in riotous living. No matter if everybody in Detroit is doing it, it’s wrong. It always will be wrong, and it always has been wrong. It’s wrong in every age and it’s wrong in every nation. Some things are right and some things are wrong, no matter if everybody is doing the contrary. Some things in this universe are absolute.”

             

            How do you know that in 2027 when I’m long dead, that people won’t be more interested in finding out exactly what Cambridge Analytica did and why so many in the USA were bamboozled and confused as to the morality of Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, RFK Jr anti-autism, etc?

             

            “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” ― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, year 1995

        I’m not fucking impressed by you playing victim

        Yha, you made that clear with your entrance into the posting and reporting it, that you aren’t impressed that my communications is human enough for you, so you want me shut down using machine systems, computers, to crush a human person you find “not fucking impressed by”

        I am the victim of Cambridge Analytica, Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, Putin, Surkov - but you only want me to behave as if I’m not in extreme mental agony and doing my best on my deathbed to beg for help to the world that this shit stops.

        You want to silence me for declaring I and my friends in the USA are victims of the Cambridge Analytica and Russian warfare, that my brain is all fucked up from it, and families are broken, people divorced, children disowned by their parents, children unable to go to family gatherings for Thanksgiving and Christmas because so much hate caused by Cambridge Analytica psychologists and psychiatrist and people unable to get health care or even comprehend why everyone in USA is behaving in mass dehumanization values. You want anyone standing up to the cause of the problems shut down, today and now, on Lemmy communications systems.

         

        I’m not fucking impressed by you playing victim

        I see you play games on Lemmy, that you are a gamer. I’m not a gamer, I’m not playing games about being on my deathbed and hospitalized a dozen times over what this shit does to all my social relationships since March 2013.

         

        This is not just a story about social psychology and data analytics. It has to be understood in terms of a military contractor using military strategies on a civilian population. Us. David Miller, a professor of sociology at Bath University and an authority in psyops and propaganda, says it is “an extraordinary scandal that this should be anywhere near a democracy. It should be clear to voters where information is coming from, and if it’s not transparent or open where it’s coming from, it raises the question of whether we are actually living in a democracy or not.” - https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/may/07/the-great-british-brexit-robbery-hijacked-democracy

         

        “The display, which was called ‘Can Democracy Survive the Internet?’ was dedicated to a ‘global election management’ company called Cambridge Analytica. Cambridge Analytica claimed to have gathered 5,000 data points on every American voter online: what you liked and what you shared on social media; how and where you shopped; who your friends were… They claimed to be able to take this imprint of your online self, use it to understand your deepest drives and desires, and then draw on that analysis to change your voting behaviour. The boast seemed to be backed up by success: Cambridge Analytica had worked on the victorious American presidential campaign of Donald Trump; it had also run successful campaigns for US Senator Ted Cruz (twice); and others all across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019
