WaPo - Technology once used to combat ISIS propaganda is enlisted by Democratic group to counter Trump’s coronavirus messaging

quote:

A new Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, is planning to deploy technology originally developed to counter Islamic State propaganda in service of a domestic political goal — to combat online efforts to promote President Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president’s claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across the country — in some cases paying users with large followings to take sides against the president.

I thought we called these celebrities? Paid shills to spread Liberal propaganda.

But why does it matter so much?
quote:

The initiative reflects fears within the Democratic Party that Trump’s unwavering digital army may help sustain him through the pandemic, as it has through past controversies, even as the economy craters, tens of thousands have died, and Trump suffers in the polls.

“digital army“ nice way of dehumanizing voters. Democrats haven’t learned a thing from last election.

These people are straight up losers.

Since the PAC is paying for content from “influencers” i wonder if they be required to disclose who is paying them for each tweet/post

Where's the person who actually had the nerve to argue with me the other day about the left censoring everything.

We have this weird faction of people who DO believe that the media is corrupt, but who, at the same time, don't think the leftist machine filters our "science", in terms of what is published and promoted. They think it's a wacky conspiracy theory that the left would promote fake science, even though they know the left controls 95% of the media and entertainment narrative, easily.

Now we see that military technology is being deployed by the left to do what? Control the narrative.

Wake up, people!
