Americans Believe Russian Disinformation ‘To Alarming Degree’ <<< “Hearts and Minds of the Russian enemy” were won by Kremlin using Hybrid Warfare since March 2013, Cambridge Analytica payloads, “Operation Matthew 4:19”
“Russia and the Menace of Unreality”
“How Vladimir Putin is revolutionizing information warfare”
By Peter Pomerantsev
September 9, 2014
“At the NATO summit in Wales last week, General Philip Breedlove, the military alliance’s top commander, made a bold declaration. Russia, he said, is waging “the most amazing information warfare blitzkrieg we have ever seen in the history of information warfare.” It was something of an underestimation. The new Russia doesn’t just deal in the petty disinformation, forgeries, lies, leaks, and cyber-sabotage usually associated with information warfare. It reinvents reality, creating mass hallucinations”

Americans believe US disinformation much more. Obviously, Russian narratives that it is defending itself is not objectively disinformation, and fully understood by population and military. The mass hallucination that NATO is a purely defensive alliance and didn’t fully provoke war in Ukraine is out of this world surreal, and only possible by insisting that reality is the hallucination.

USA people created social media systems and trust and believe computer-presented Apple iPhone / Apple iPad and similar device information much more.

Russia has directly addressed The American People, We The People, what they are doing in February 2019. The problem is that in April 2025, you won’t find a single Lemmy user who is able to use search engines anymore, they are all so fixated on comment sections of Lemmy that their mind can no longer understand or comprehend any information outside their immediate fixation and expectations of Twitter-style meme-speak / Fox News language style. People are all mentally trapped inside the 5,000 alternate reality screen games / mental mindsets crafted by the psychologists and psychiatrists of Cambridge Analytica and augmented by Surkov’s students.

“Americans who worry about Russia election interference should stop focusing on such trivialities and instead realize that the idea that they have a choice over how they are governed is a mere illusion, Vladislav Surkov, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin, wrote in an op-ed published this week.”
“The illusion of choice is the most important illusion, the main trick of Western democracy especially…. The rejection of this illusion in favor of the reality that everything is predestined will allow society to reflect first on our vision of democratic development,” Surkov wrote. “Foreign politicians talk about Russia’s interference in elections and referendums around the world. In fact, the matter is even more serious: Russia interferes in your brains, we change your conscience, and there is nothing you can do about it.”

OBL claimed responsibility for 9/11. Doing so, made him more loved/powerful/influencial. Surkov living in your brain rent free is because you want him to.

I personally predicted the Arab Spring on December 16, 2009 and spent all year 2010 interacting on social media with people in Tunisia and Algeria and was relocating to live in Algeria on December 3, 2010 before it became a world famous hot revolution a couple weeks later. I then moved over to Amman Jordan in March 2011 to study the outbreak of Syria war and media ecology. I didn’t learn about Surkov until 2015, I have my own free thinking and ability to analyze what is going on, I use James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake and Marshall McLuhan’s work.

I’ve studied Surkov’s work, he is the only one capable of all this at James Joyce’s level. And Cambridge Analytica crafting the 5,000 alternate-reality screen games for Lemmy that they released in March 2013 that you are clearly inside.
Cambridge Analytica is usual oligarchy rulership service. Nothing to do with Russia. The divisiveness algorithm would exist in Fox news and facebook without any Russian contribution, but if Russian troll farms are cheap labour, the GOP hiring them is not Putin/Surkov’s responsibility to stop.
OP, is about NATO demonic diminishment of Russia. US psyops that normalize this demonism is the specific hallucination that must deny the reality of the Russian narrative on Ukraine war.
