    A. I said cyber PSYOPS not warfare and there is an argument to be made that propaganda IS a form of warfare (Eg it is according to russian doctrine). B. There has been a distinct upwards trend in American cuntishness over the last 15 years, well more of a dropping of the mask.

      You never said the word psyops in any of these comments. What the fuck?

      If things have gotten worse in the last 15 years, I’m certain it is because of the state of the American psyche and not because of some foreign propaganda.

        Literally the last word in my first comment. Russia launched a psyop in 2009 aimed at causing unrest in western democracies

          Sorry. What thread do you think you’re on right now?

          Oh, I see. You just added psyops to the thread by saying you think NATO isn’t good at psyops on a thread about cyber warfare.

          Look, let’s just end the discussion. I don’t need people getting confused about which of us is the fool.

            If you look a little harder you’ll realise that post is unedited, but if you’re resorting to insults I think you know that. Apologies cost nothing, you can admit you didn’t actually read what I wrote before getting agitated.

              Sorry I didn’t realize you changed the subject so that you could steer the conversation towards absolving the USA of its centuries-long violent, racist, genocidal, jingoistic psychosis by blaming it on Russian psyops.

              My bad.

                    I conflated cyber psyops and cyber warfare as both being offensive cyber operations, which was sloppy and unclear of me.

                    I’m not excusing americas history of racism, imperialism and general douchbaggery. Only pointing out the stark reversal of the trend towards empathy and compassion (Pre 2010) back to full mask off racism and corruption (post 2010).

                    “Something” Happened in America during the 2010’s that drove a distinct increase in the amount of public support for racism and bigotry.

                    Now I am leaving this conversation, because it has become far more combative and emotional then I am comfortable with.

                    I genuinely hope you have a good day.
