  • Опубликовано: 24 сен 2024
  • Vatnik soup is a Twitter thread series where Pekka Kallioniemi introduces pro-Russian actors and propagandists from around the world. This includes so-called “independent journalists”, politicians, military personnel and of course just regular grifters looking to make money. The series has introductions and deeper insights on how online propaganda and disinformation works and is spread. There are now 200 Vatnik soups, which introduce bad actors along with the strategies they employ to pollute the information space. As Pekka states: the first victim of war is the truth, and Russia considered itself at war with the US, and its perceived vassals, the collective West, EU, and NATO.
    ----------
    Pekka Kallioniemi has a PhD in interactive technology and is an expert on social media platforms, algorithms, and disinformation. He is a #NAFO activist, and runs a series on Kremlin assets, agents, and oligarchs, called vatnik soup.

    Very inreresting. Kudos for both Pekka and Jonathan. One thing that needs to be understood in the West is that the best way to fight disinformation (for now) is to decisively attack and interdict the sources of disinformation, financially and not only.

    I'm half British, half Finnish and my grandfathers fought (technically) on opposite sides, but I'm obviously immensely proud of both. My Finnish family always spoke disparagingly about Ryssä and I have as a consequence always been very sceptical about their intentions. Finland suffered from decades of media manipulation even from within it's own broadcasters and newspapers. A malign influence that was, at that time denied, yet later proven. If anyone knows what Moscow is capable of, it's the Finns, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Poles and, of course, Ukrainians.

      The Russians already have been doing it for many decades. Like sending operatives to universities on student visas to influence future government employees. In fact, I know one in Canada who was a student and recruited by such operatives became communist in 1967, visited Moscow in 1968 where was recruited by KGB. And lately he has been spreading Kremlin's lies about Ukrainians. I'm certain he has been getting paid since he bragged about 2 luxury cars he purchased.

There is NO comparison between US relationship w EU and Eu nations, and ru's relations with anyone, namely EU matters. Ru is the only nation on earth with its entire modus is not a political nation, it's as Satter says, a 'movement': Ru only is a thing bcuz of the stability provided by having the only large intell/secret-police org being relied on for all controls. Started sooo long ago and is now a very sophisticated machine. The world is wising up, since the very essence of the global economy is under medium and longterm threat by RU's ideas & related actions. game is over almost.

      The old rule is, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. God help us, when in November Mr.Trump and the Putin regime reign the world. As a German I know only too well how propaganda can manipulate people and how much time and energy must be invested in order to create an open minded population. Mind you, the Russian people has NEVER been a truly democratic people. But is that really the aim of imperialistic governments ? I am really worried what the future will bring to all of us.

    It is not totally true that the EU does not put money into countering disinformation. While it does not appear to have a counter disinformation unit, it does seem to fund such activities at a relatively low level through projects like Horizon However, I doubt that these projects are coordinated.
