The OP article is a synopsis of a synopsis, now so shallow and devoid of nuance to be meaningless.

Russia and Iran have both undertaken cyber influence operations headed into the 2024 presidential election. In our last report, published on August 8, we detailed how Iranian cyber-enabled influence operations sought to undermine the Republican campaign through targeted hack-and-leak operations, covert social media personas, and imposter US news sites. In the past two months, Microsoft has observed a notable shift in Russian influence operations tactics reflecting the changing U.S. political environment. Specifically, we have observed Russia pivot towards targeting the Harris-Walz campaign, with actors disseminating fabricated videos designed to sow discord and spread disinformation about the new Democratic nominee Vice President Harris.

Source and an abbreviated summary from MS.

The lengthy report for those with the interest and technical competance.

Understanding propaganda, both external and internal, has become critically important to our collective future. Please, read more books: 1984; The Engineering of Consent; The Manufacturing of Consent. Then, do more than vote and engage others locally when doing it.

We’re desensitized by our usage in music and casual interaction. Racists are desensitized by their usage in hatred. The only people made uncomfortable are white moderates unwilling to do anything more than vote for the house n----r.

After Trump publicly supported a Venezuelan coup in 2019, in 2020 Silvercorp, a US corporation, sent 60 soldiers to effect the coup. Elon tweeted “We coup who we want,” because he’s socially inept and his various business interests would benefit immensely from stolen lithium. The coup failed.

Maduro may be a villain. But, arresting colonizers isn’t why.

Even mice can learn new things.

You’re supposed to understand that the vast majority of society are shallow idiots that’ve been misled by immersion in state-sponsored propaganda.

Then, engage the socialists and communists. They know what to do, why, and how. The last time we had the numbers for meaningful change was the late 1940s: Veterans of WW1 became armed socialists and communists which resulted in The New Deal.

Corporate personhood is what’s made much of this incarnation possible. If you want to dehumanize something then focus on the root cause.

That’s nice.

You shouldn’t expect me to waste time reading paragraphs after you’ve demonstrated your shallow understanding, kiddo.

You’ve invalidated my reasoning. Luckily, I can keep repeating my ageism.

Good luck with that, kiddo.

Revenue is quite an oversimplification of geopolitics in a heavily interdependent economic paradigm, kiddo.

The USA kills lots of people: Native Americans, African Americans, Arabs, Asians. We’re still doing it, now even to whites in Ukraine. It’s all to feed the military industrial complex, just as Eisenhower warned. War is why capital reserves for banks have been raised and why the Fed speaks of lowering the borrow rate. Admitting it is the difference between a patriot and a nationalist.

What false premise?

I don’t care which party takes advantage of the principles of the labor platform.

I need not read links to identify your false premise. The goal isn’t that a certain party win. The revolutionary isn’t loyal to party, only principle. It doesn’t matter which group of opportunistic assholes “win”.

Edited correction. Thank you.

You’re flat out wrong, likely rooted in ignorance of the system. Without choice on the ballot it can’t be voted for. The obstacles to access are far greater than winning an ideoloical majority.

Consider the alternative of putting the Green platform on every ballot in 2028, overcoming the first and largest obstacle maintaining duopoly. It takes only 5% of the GE popular. Then, watch as Democrats panic to maintain the “big tent” for four years.

I’m a triple minority. I’ve suffered assholes my whole life. Things got worse under Trump. But, that damage is already done. In this facet nothing changes for me if it’s Trump once again. I’m not afraid. We must think in terms much greater than four years.

Trump lacks the numbers, the budget, and the leadership. Much has changed in 8 years.
