CENTCOM – Sockpuppets for Disinformation & Propaganda

In 2011 CENTCOM was awarded a $2.8 million contract with a company, Ntrepid, for the purpose of creating “sockpuppets” to spread pro-American propaganda on social media networks. Fifty users – ten sockpuppets per user with the following protections in place:

  • Special secure VPN that camouflages ability to locate source
  • Static IP addresses to protect government entities from being identified
  • Nine private servers to randomly route attempts to locate the source, and
  • Virtual machine environment whereby the posts are automatically deleted at a given point to protect against hacks.

Operation Earnest Voice was the brainchild of General Patraeus who claimed that it was ‘an effort to counter extremist ideology and propaganda’.   Given that this is illegal in the United States, Patraeus pinky swore it would only be utilized outside of the country in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and ‘other Middle east countries. And CENTCOM as always stressed they never ever in a million years would do anything ‘against the law’.

When Mad Dog Mattis inherited this operation he decided to extend it to ‘regional bloggers’ targeting moderate voices – whipping them up and then flagging them as being hostile with corrosive content so that they would be removed by the media platform.

By definition, a sockpuppet is one who uses a fictitious online identity for the purposes of deception.   By contrast, a BOT is an automated account that repeatedly makes the same statement. These types of accounts are now universal and encompass governments, corporations, NGO’s, and ‘nonintelligent’ intelligence agencies…

In the UK the website Operation Earnest Voice claims they: “specialise in engineering consent and influencing the public opinion”.

They list their services as:

  • Deep Deception
  • Production of News Websites With Automated Content
  • Personalized Propaganda
  • Clone Audiences
  • Look-a-like audiences
  • Mobilization & distribution of fake accounts for fake traffic, fake metrics, message amplification
  • Information Warfare

And MORE…

The Fake News concept was launched by the Obama administration.   The purpose was similar to and likely copied from the Rothschild’s use of media propaganda in 1917 and forward – to call out all natural medicine and such affiliated doctors as “Quacks”.   The Quackery Campaign!  The purpose of which was to launch Big Pharma – quacks.

It Worked.

I recently researched a media content I had no knowledge of and was fact-checked as highly accurate with a conservative lean.   I almost left the site when I noticed the sidebar had posted the MOST reliable sources which included; Fox, CNN, NYT, BBC…   in other words Fact Checkers are part of Operation Earnest Voice!

And once again – this propaganda machine finds its source in the CIA and MI6.

Ntrepid is based in Herndon Virginia – the CIA gauntlet – although registered in Florida.  It’s CEO and Founder originally came from the CIA. It’s President is formerly DoD.   It’s chief tech came from the FBI and then Microsoft. Without divulging who or which, Ntrepid claims to work with 50 different global governments. They have no board of directors.

Initially created as a psyche operation, in essence, Operation Earnest Voice are the global information ‘distorters’.  

Information is Big Business, it has evolved exponentially beyond Operation Mockingbird and now encompasses an enterprise that has no source of truth – and has one solitary purpose – creating a false reality. There is no morality, ethics, honor, it is a machine of persons sitting about all day in front of a monitor and inserting a pre-conceived end result from any client willing to pay the price – much like a mercenary.

They work for money – not for honor.

They are used to promote racism, radicalization, political fakery, identity fakery, war fakery, and everything that causes us to ‘believe’ what we read and see.   A recent video was circulated claiming it was purportedly taking place in ravaged Ukraine.   It turns out the video was an actual movie clip.

The only means to attempt to crawl out of this Matrix of reality is thru blogs and sites which are targeted by these anti-fact fact-checkers.  In other words, if the liberals are targeting them, they are likely to be more factual than Matrix, aka CoVid.

It would appear that recently I became a victim of a sockpuppet.   Albeit a lesser value opportunist.   Hundreds of extremist posts onto my account that took him hours to post – and me hours to delete.   A more professional sockpuppeteer would not have spent so much time on one person – a waste of time and energy.

Facebook estimates Sockpuppets account for roughly 27% of their online accounts.   But that would be a FB definition – which is obviously faulted subject to its own affiliation with the sockpuppeteers, CIA and MI6.  Accounts They Cannot Delete.

FAKE NEWS

I am trying to understand the viewpoint of some of the more liberal media including The economist, The New York Times and the Washington Post. And like the demonstrations taking part by college students who chose not to even vote, the arrogance and hypocrisy elements are – difficult.

A journalist/opinion-op person who writes for The New York Times, is quite unabashed in his derision and choice of words concerning Trump. His latest barrage is about how “we can not just get along”… which of course was the Obama and Clinton mantra that he seems to feel only applies if his team wins!

While Trump is attempting to mend, journalists continue to divide. And for some reason Trumps’ attempts to mend are not met with grace, but instead even greater hostility, as though offering a hand was an evil thing.

To be sure, we don’t know exactly what Trump will do his first months in office. We do know that some of the more major issues including healthare, securing the border, and terrorism are at the top. But the mess left by Obama, the racism, the division, the daft teachings of our educators, are quite embedded and a generation of uneducated twenty somethings makes us gulp back bile.

But it only takes a few seconds to look back at previous articles written by this NYT man to fully embrace the hypocrisy. Hiss op-ed when the rave of election fraud was being discussed before the election was a vilification of the ‘fake news’ conspiracy lunatics. After the election, given his team lost, suddenly the shift is to declare ‘election fraud’!

I still believe that election fraud occurred. The problem? All the fraud that was uncovered pointed exclusively to the Democrats. All the fraud that was uncovered in the Obama election cycle – pointed to the Democrats. Reams of it. He denigrates Trump for not accepting his ‘Loss’ graciously. And in the end, this man makes a fool of himself.

The media seem to have conveniently forgotten the massive manipulation perpetrated at the highest levels for decades; Operation Mockingbird. The media that willingly colluded included, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Newsweek, Miami News and CBS. They were used because of their aggressive liberal stance and anti-Soviet rhetoric.

Then there was/is Operation Earnest Voice which specifically targets international social media censorship. It is funded as a propaganda tool.

There is sockpuppetry which has been used to extol one business while vilifying another. The concept is also used by the UK government, by journalists, and the EU governments, to create false accounts that lobby for a particular government idea or cause, when the lobbying is actually derived from the government itself.

There is Merkel telling the German media what they can and cannot print with respect to immigrant problems and related rapes and sexual assaults. That is media manipulation.

The BBC, state owned, which filters it’s content based on what the UK government determines is allowable.

These are the sources of “Fake News”.

So why is the new obsession all about vilifying Russia propaganda? Because that is in line with the EU and US propaganda…   It’s one propaganda vilifying another who vilifies another until there is no reality left. Just a bunch of puppets.   At some point, the train will either come to a screeching halt, or a complete derailment.

In the meantime, most Americans search and search for news that has some semblance of reality and not propaganda. Are their fake stories circulating? Of course! Unfortunately, more often than not, the source is a liberal format. Unfortunately, the demand for hate and vilification is more often than not sourced back to Liberal agendas. Why?

I believe the moral and ethical value structure that is embraced by our country has been corrupted. Too frequently, the Donna Braziles of the world justify their corruption as for The Greater Good, as defined – by them.   And they feel no remorse, no regret, just like the rioters destroying our businesses and our property.

It used to be that when someone was asked if they understood ‘right from wrong’, those that didn’t were considered mentally impaired.
