~ The Anon's Discernment Prayer ~
Dear Lord,
I pray that I may always know to identify the clickbait disinfo methodology, to understand its purposes, and how it targets me and your people.
May I realize that I, and only I, together with other anons, am your first line of defense in the disinformation wars.
May I recognize the deception in all of its forms, and stand strong against being manipulated, by putting good practice above reactive instincts.
May I expose the devil's deceptions wherever they appear, and in doing so, form a protective fence for those you are seeking to wake up; first to protect, and then to inform, so that your people can learn to think for themselves.
May it ever be so.
Amen
The PRS Disinfo Methodology
Step 1. Take some fact and mix with fake content. Create fake-ified bait.
1.a. Ensure that the facts pertain to that you wish to minimize or hide from public understanding
1.b. Maximize reaction factor by ensuring that the fake content is something that will trigger emotional engagement from those who understand truth on some level
Step 2. Promulgate said bait by targeting reactionary impulses in (people)
2.a. Establish and then utilize disinfo sites in the form of clickbait (aka dress the wolves in sheep's clothing)
Step 3. Use Hoax and Fact Checkers to discredit content on the basis of fake-ified details
3.a. The more you generate fake-ified news in order to muddy the waters and poison the information pool, the better
Step 4. Rinse and Repeat
- PRS = Problem - Reaction - Solution
Case Study
Recent Post by the august DiveAndBait referencing a Tweet that quotes directly from thepeoplesvoice.tv via an image.
At this juncture, an important question arises. Given information that 'presses all the right buttons' AND which is provided only via an image, with no sauce actually identified or linked, will more readers choose the option of simply believing (accepting) and then spreading? Or will more choose to track down sauce in order to evaluate the information?
The answer should be obvious: Many more will react and spread than will make the effort to evaluate. And by evaluate, I mean
a) identify sauce of information and associated credibility levels
b) identify facts and separate from fiction
c) discern motivation behind the information
Discerning motivation behind the Narrative Impact is the critical factor from the perspective of narrative warfare. It's the WHY that helps to define and evaluate the WHAT.
This is important because information (and disinformation) can be shared to inform and empower towards independent thinking, but it can also be shared in order to manipulate and direct the target along a particular path. So the WHY is important in evaluating the VALUE of the information, and the impact we allow it to have on us.
(Note: anons need to continually ask themselves: am I the former? Or am I the latter? Do I tend to accept information that confirms my biases, or do I track down the information origins to evaluate?)
Rudimentary Evaluation Exercise
So let's look at the SAUCE.
First, do you think that it's curious that this <ahem> wonderful article /<ahem> from The People's Voice, which purports to labels itself with a "Fact Checked" sticker. So, ask yourself this question:
Who uses fact checkers to assert authority and acceptance vs. Who asks people to check facts for themselves in order to promote discernment and independent thinking?
The answer is obvious to most anons.
So who IS the People's Voice TV?
The People's Voice TV was previously the Video Arm of the CLICKBAIT site Newspunch. Same old Sean Adl-Tabatabai, same old Baxter Dmitry, same old clickbait.
Who is Newspunch?
Newspunch was first created as YourNewsWire.com
https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/YourNewsWire.com
YourNewsWire.com rebranded itself as Newspunch.com in late 2018. Now, the Newspunch Website URL (click here: http://Newspunch.com) and links directly to The People's Voice. In appears, then, that YourNewsWire.com aka Newspunch is once again rebranding itself under another name: ThePeople'sVoice.tv.
YourNewsWire > NewsPunch > ThePeople'sVoice.tv
The same organization and content rebranded under different names were all founded by "Sean Adl-Tabatabai and his husband Sinclair Treadway" Sauce: Wikipedia, who were reportedly the first "married" gay duo in the United Kingdom Sauce: Daily Beast. YourNewsWire was described by (The Hollywood Reporter)[https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/hollywoods-hidden-alt-media-firebrands-1041157/] as the "Breitbart of the Left".
Wanna know moa? Dig deeper.
PAUSE: Wikipedia, the Daily Beast, Hollywood Reporter ~ it's important to apply discernment here. Just because these are Cabal-aligned sources doesn't mean we should ignore them. They provide information. The key is to apply a discernment rubric as described above:
a) identify sauce of information and associated credibility levels
b) identify facts and separate from fiction
c) discern motivation behind the information
Is This The WHY?
So think about it for a minute. An ultra-gay man-couple living in Los Angeles who were reportedly Bernie supporters... Do you really think these people have a genuine interest in promoting correct news and information about the Globalists, Hollywood, Cultural Marxists and myriad other areas that draw the attention of anons and people waking up via the Great Awakening?
What might be their motivation in YNW = NP = TPV?
What might be the motivation of these Globohomo aligned media reporting on and thereby 'promoting' YNW/NP?
Another paragraph in the wiki article provides a hint, imo.
A 2017 BuzzFeed report identified NewsPunch as being the second-largest source of popular fake stories spread on Facebook that year, and a June 2018 Poynter analysis identified NewsPunch as being debunked over 80 times in 2017 and 2018 by Poynter-accredited factcheckers such as Snopes, FactCheck.org, PolitiFact, and the Associated Press.
Snopes, FactCheck.org, PolitiFact, and the Associated Press.... These are all organizations connected via the (barf) IFCN, aka the International Fact-Checking Network. For some interesting tidbits on their connections, see this post: Checking Out the Fact Checkers ~ A Preliminary Dig circa. 2018
What should be very obvious to thinking anons is that NewsPunch and its various forms are perfect fodder for the Fact-Checking organizations of the Cabal to shoot down, debunk and thereby discredit in the eyes of the Matrix walkers (the asleep sheep) any content about the various issues that anons work so hard to red-pill the normie world on.
We can reasonably posit that the intent here is not merely clickbait ($$$), but also by inserting fake-fied tabloid-like information into an otherwise important red-pill area, The People's Voice (aka Newspunch) both redirects anons attention, activates reactive responses, and diverts real attention from the real WEF agendas or bona fide red pills that will not only wake people up, but activate independent thinking and discernment.
In other words, Newspunch Et Al play perfectly into the PRS Disinfo Methodology I cited above.
There is another tangent here: We should realize that the "Fact-Checkers" gain authority and trust in the normie world ONLY when there is garbage and fake-ified information for them to debunk.
In his comment to the aforementioned post, Fatality directly alludes to this methodology in action when he writes:
Note, that they didn't call them "Information Warriors" so if you go out with wording like that you're going to be sent here, and they'll screech "fake news!"
https://greatawakening.win/p/16b5lWbheX/x/c/4TsavlgffBg
To corroborate this fact, notice how a search for "newspunch" on Google brings up plenty of debunking sites instead of the actual Newspunch site itself?
https://www.google.com/search?q=newspunch
It's the old hegelian paradigm. Problem - Reaction - Solution (PRS), and in the narrative wars, disinfo clickbait sites like Newspunch and ThePeople'sVoice.Tv provide really wonderful "problems" and "reactions" to which the GloboMarxists and Cabal want to offer the solution.
Anons really are the first line of defense when it comes to the disinfo operations of the globomarxists.
The Kicker
You may have not noticed it but a) the Tweet In question from Bernie's Tweets does NOT link to sauce, but only provides an image. However, there was a tweet from the same account of August 2022 which actually linked to sauce. https://twitter.com/BernieSpofforth/status/1560216089086332930. Which means that the story was at least first published in August 2022.
Notice also how the Newspunch/PeoplesVoice article published in April 2023, is essentially regurgitating information from a 2020 newsrelease from WEF.
So, in Nov 2020, WEF was going to
".... recruit(ed) 110,000 information volunteers, and we equip these information volunteers with the kind of knowledge about how misinformation spreads and ask them to serve as kind of 'digital first-responders' in those spaces where misinformation travels,"
That was 2 and a half years ago. 30 months ago. And The People's Voice is (re)publishing an old article about it now AS IF IT WAS CURRENT. If that doesn't tell you how clickbaity this is, nothing will....
And in case you haven't noticed, the WEF is increasingly a massive failure, because more people and more nations wake up every day to the COVID19 Scamdemic and the Vax Hoax.
Corroboration
If you want to actually check out NewsPunch's history of clickbait and fake-fied content, you'll have to look it up on an archive site.
https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/newspunch.com
One thing. Notice here how the frequency of archiving dramatically sped up in 2018 and 2019. If the frequency of archiving is any indication of penetration of Newspunch into the Information Sphere, then is it a coincidence that NewsPunch's activities (appear) to have increased along with the growth of the Great Awakening?
Here's an example. Just read the headlines.
WEF Says US Must Implement ‘One Child Policy’ For White Families
Trigger much?
Hillary Clinton: ‘People Who Identify as Women Are Being RAPED by Man-Made Climate Change’
Is that what she wrote? So if not, then WHY exaggerate and hyper-sensationalize it?
problem, reaction, solution.
CONCLUSION
It's instructive to read through and analyze such Clickbait Articles, to apply the discernment rubric. Notice that such articles take certain factual elements (i.e. quotes) but then mix them with fictional or distorted aka fake-fied headlines etc. What might be the purpose of doing that?
For one, it hyper-activates the clickbait value with embedded emotionally attractive nuances that draw in those in the Awakening or partly awakened spheres.
Because most of us are actually hyper-emotionalized. We've been fighting an information war for one, two, five, or 10 years. Veterans are less likely to be taken in by such methods, but if you are war weary, emotionally on edge, or even outraged, then such tactics are well designed to exploit your vulnerabilities.
Being resilient to such attacks and deployments is something that all anons need to constantly work on. To do so, we need to understand the PRS methodology, how it is applied to clickbait that targets those who are awake on some level, and how to counter it by applying discernment along the 3 axes: source, fact vs. fiction, possible motivation.
And to that end, I shall offer a prayer....
Q3038
Decide for yourself (be free from outside opinion). Decide for yourself (be objective in your conclusions). Decide for yourself (be true in your own beliefs). Decide for yourself (be open to following the facts). Decide for yourself (be strong in defending your beliefs). Decide for yourself (be resistant to blindly accepting fact-less statements).
Great post, while we are all aware of the tactics used against us, it never really is a bad idea to go back and refresh the memory on said tactics.
Even though I come across information like this often in different boards across the years, it always hardens my reserve a little and keeps the mind focused on the prize.
