ghostrek Posted June 5, 2023 Author Posted June 5, 2023 sorry it's not the girl I was talking about Saturday night but but it's a great question I had and I had a letter to explain it Quote
PhilosipherStoned Posted June 5, 2023 Posted June 5, 2023 I doubt he's going to take the time to explain psychological warfare to you.... What has you curious about it? Do you have a question about the history of Russian psychological warfare specifically or psychological warfare in general? Quote

A sound mind? The term psychological warfare can refer to a wide range of warfighting tactics, and what might be a good answer for one tactic might not help you at all in not falling victim to another. Based on the video in your OP however, you seem to have Russia's propaganda machine in mind. When it comes to propaganda especially the wartime/political variety you need to be able to identify key features or "tells" of the author and any biases they may have... Why do I feel like I'm pissing in the wind already? Quote

Why do I feel like I'm pissing in the wind already? Expand @PhilosipherStoned look one tactic doesn't always work against all threats no matter what form of warfare one is utilizing including psychological warfare Nope not really I have actually read up on the subject a little bit a little bit more focused in the World War II variety of psychological warfare and propaganda but yes I'm aware of the situation and there is tails I have noticed this. Wanted to tell is Russian propaganda always goes into conspiracy theory territory especially when it's targeted to the west. The bio lab story for example or the Ukrainian forces are made up of mostly neo-Nazis And other stories like that. Well yeah but go back to your first . But down I have noticed a lot of people I know buy into the Russian narrative which is frankly questionable. Frankly the Russian propaganda narrative is so shitty if it was given to Hollywood it would be ending up as an MST3K episode Edited June 6, 2023 by ghostrek 1 Quote
