It’s increasingly hard to know what is real, and what is true — these aren’t the same thing, and this segment goes into both. 🎥 Old clips...

I assume Iran is going to be retaliating with cyber & information attacks. Seems like their propaganda machine should be spinning. And AFAICT we have gutted state capacity to detect or fight an info war. Outside, X doesn’t seem to do shit w/bots anymore, & places like SIO were political casualties.
Truth Social is where POTUS announces bombing raids on nuclear sites now?

There’s a Little Lending Library at this campground, which is literally all Christian living books except for this random and surprisingly interesting history of Krakatoa, and a copy of Ender’s Game which my 11yo is absolutely devouring. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreies5pu47x7a6jvhqm63fzomf7zdajiezlzlww4pwdlnmv6yoeewcq

It’s increasingly hard to know what is real, and what is true — these aren’t the same thing, and this segment goes into both. 🎥 Old clips of past protests that are technically real make the rounds…passed off as something they aren’t 🤖 AI-generated clips or pics that *aren’t* real cause FUD RE:

The Mad King is calling for a Special Prosecutor to investigate election fraud… Days ago Benz went on John Solomon and said FBI covered up Chinese interference. Said EIP helped conspire to “censor” it. PAY ATTENTION. The bullshit machine is kicking into gear, trying to spin lies into reality. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreib5wiw5pexcremlmsn4534kdits4wq3pnqualg3ike5w7ih7cm45a https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreigrongx24xyk3rtfkctjl7opw4xb6ed5znv4v4ytcgiwf7reg4f5a
I was happy to be a contributor to this important project — a Handbook that aims to help scholars & scientists understand tactics autocrats use, and how best to respond. It covers practical tips for locking things down, advice for helping targeted colleagues, what to do if smeared, etc. RE:
