Context: #AdvocacyUKInstituteForStrategicDialogueISD "Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, jurisdictions and tech platforms around the world have taken steps to prevent or limit the spread of Russian propaganda internationally. There is, however, an additional constraint hampering the efforts of Russia and its supporters in spreading disinformation: language.
This Dispatch investigates a coordinated network of volunteers working to translate existing Russian-language propaganda and disinformation about the war in Ukraine into over a dozen languages. This includes content from pro-Kremlin influencers, particularly the controversial Ukrainian blogger Yuri Podolyaka, as well as Russian state media sources. The volunteers, who have branded themselves 'Info Defense', operate Telegram channels for each of the target languages. They also administer specifically-branded Info Defense accounts on YouTube, and disseminate their content across the major international social media networks through a multitude of smaller accounts.
The significance of this network is at the base level in which it functions : a grassroots, relatively decentralised and cost-free network for the translation and distribution of propaganda. This model may appeal to both state- and non-state actors seeking to promote narratives and content to international audiences, and is likely to pose a challenge for platform content moderation efforts....
In a video message promoting the newly formed translation network, Podolyaka elaborated on the role which he saw himself and his supporters playing in support of Russia's war in Ukraine. He spoke at length about the way in which media coverage and information about the war in Vietnam helped to deplete domestic support for the war in the US, ultimately leading to the US's defeat and retreat from Vietnam. According to Podolyaka, if the public in Western countries only knew that Russia was really fighting against evil Nazis in Ukraine, they would force their governments to abandon the fight, as they did in Vietnam. 'This is the truth that they want to hide from their societies, and our task is to bring this truth to them,' he said." https://www.isdglobal.org/digital_dispatches/the-info-defense-network-crowdsourcing-soldiers-for-the-information-war/ #IRLYouTuberYuriPodolyaka #2022_InvasionOfUkraine #PhenomnPropagandaDisinformation #ToponymEuropeUkraineDonbasDonetskPeoplesRepublicDPR #ToponymEuropeUkraineDonbasLuhanskPeoplesRepublicLPR #HandleTelegramTheEyeOfTheStormTEOS #HandleTelegramTheNodeOfTime

The network's successes are still sporadic - a few tweets have reached viral influencers, and a few dozen videos on YouTube channels have garnered significant followings - but, for the first time, its content has had measurable reach. Moreover, the audiences it has reached are widespread and include influencers in Latin America, Pakistan, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong. Combined with the sheer scale of the network, and the fact that it has reconstituted itself after repeated takedowns, these features mark Spamouflage as a persistent and increasingly assertive online presence with a limited but growing ability to engage real users." https://graphika.com/reports/spamouflage-breakout #PhenomnSpamouflageDragon

#WebsiteHuffPostAmandaTerkel "In his 10-minute speech to the conservative Heritage Foundation in Washington on Thursday, Scott kept saying the word 'woke' in that same cringeworthy way some people are still using 'da bomb.' (You know who you are.) 'Americans in flyover country have had absolutely enough of this woke elitist nonsense.' 'The woke left wants all of that gone. They want to end the American experiment. They want to replace freedom with control.' 'Democrats know they can't win with their crazy woke ideas.' 'They're going to say I'm not woke enough, and I'm not serious.' For what it's worth, no one is going to say Scott is not woke enough, because anyone who could be considered woke - i.e., someone who cares about injustice and inequality - likely isn't using that word anymore. But indeed, Scott might face some questions about how serious he is." https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/senator-rick-scott-woke-progressives-left_n_6245e32fe4b068157f74946b #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundation #MetaphorWarfareUnderAttack #NarrativeWarOf1812USUK [wikipedia] #NarrativeWarWWI #NarrativeWarWWII #NarrativeWarKorean #NarrativeWarAmericaVietnam #PoliticsCommunismColdWar

"...and we have to recover that we have to remember that it is not our job to take power that's not our job our job is to remain fast around moral imperatives that we do not compromise on it is our job to defend a dispossessed working class it is our job to defend sick children it is our job to defend those uh who are being uh tortured abused and killed in countries like Iraq and Afghanistan because of our rapacious and out of control War economy and we have to beginning be willing to get up and make personal sacrifices on behalf of these moral imperatives even if at first we become parias that is the only hope left anybody who's foolish enough to think that going to a ballot box at this point and voting for a Democratic candidate is going to change anything um I think is as is is living in a universe that is as non-reality based as the Christian right and if we can recover that ethic if we can understand that Rebellion or resistance is a way to safeguard our own Integrity our own individuality if we can look down the long term and say maybe not in our lifetime but we will carry this for the generations that come after then I think we can speak about Hope but if we refuse to do this if we remain passive and complacent then I think both our nation and finally the ecosystem that sustains human life is doomed" (17 October 2010).
