PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL NETWORKS

PART 3 - PSYWAR JOURNALISM

PSYWAR IN OUR HOMELAND - JOURNALISM

Tonight in Part 3 of our 10-Part series, I’d like to do a “reaction” video to the 1st Special Forces Command online discussion on Military Civil Affairs and its impact on our Constitution and and the damage we’re causing to the freedom of press, which they’re tasked to protect and defend from all threats, foreign and domestic. 

This is a short clip from my live studio interview with Alex Jones (Infowars) on August 14th, 2020, following the arrest of American journalist, Millie Weaver.

INFOWARS

I’ve identified connections to Infowars and the Military Industrial Complex are everywhere, beginning with my arrival at the Infowars studio in Austin, TX. where the studio sits in the middle of Austin’s MIC district near the airport.

Leading up to and following the events of J6, I noticed a very deep, almost competition for influence and money being spread around in DC post-2020 Presidential election with the “Stop the Steal” movement. An incident at an event around Dec. 12th went viral, showing what appeared to be Alex Jones threatening a cowering and fearful retired Gen. Flynn. It was embarrassing to say the least, and within a day, Flynn appeared to have “blinked”, doing an interview with Alex Jones in a room at Trump International Hotel. 

Numerous “conspiracy theories” surround the death of journalist Michael Hastings, some of which I think have merit, but lack actionable evidence. Joe Bigg’s, a friend of Hastings from the Sandbox, initially spoke out publicly about Michael’s death, but later seemed to quiet down after joining team Infowars, later to be arrested for his actions on J6.

LEONI & LINCOLN GROUP

As you will see in the email later between myself and the incoming IOTF commander, Maj. Brad Burris, I found myself on a contract working for Leonie Industries in Kabul surrounded by fraud, waste and abuse. Not knowing who to turn to for advice, I reached out to Maj. Burris, who was previously the IIA chief for the JPOTF (Joint Psychological Operations Task Force, Baghdad).

PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL NETWORKS

GHOSTS IN THE MACHINE: PSYWAR - PART 2

In part 1 of our 10 part series, I touched a bit at first on a more archetypal, origin’s story and then showed a few clips from the U.S. Army 4th Psychological Operations Group (4th POG) out of Fort Bragg, and some of its surrounding organizational structure, like the 8th POG, which the 4th now falls under, as I understand.

I also touched a bit on my personal experience providing contract support to the 4th POG, Baghdad, Iraq, 2007-08′. During that time I worked for Maj. Brad Burris, the IIA Chief on the PSYOP program I was providing contract support for. Brad later went on to be the commander of 8th POG. Altogether I spent from 2007-2010 largely supporting contracts under 4th POG, with the exception of a contract I worked for IOTF (Information Operations Task Force) Kabul, providing many of the same IT services.

I respect the sacred oath I swore with my clearance, and have no intentions of violating that. What I speak about is what’s happening right here, right now, in the USA, and I’m not even sure the Army understands what they are doing or the problem. That is what we will continue to explore in Ghosts in the Machine: PSYWAR – Part 2

NARRATIVE WARFARE

Why is misinformation is more important to some than facts? It’s all about IDENTITY & MEANING, and what roles they play in telling the story.

15 Minutes: You want to increase dissonance between the narrative for your adversary, and increase resonance between our friends and those we favor. You need to bring on side together and pull the other apart within the framework of the same story.

20 Minutes: Pathologizing the narrative [victimhood] – Convincing the target they’re a victim. Common recruitment techniques.

35 Minutes: The Meaning Map – the message matters!

38:10 – The MEME’s.

40:00 – Most American’s don’t trust America. That is a statement I agree with, but don’t these PSYOP guys that are known for spreading misinformation and disinformation understand they are part of the problem, as they try to figure out a solution?

47:30 – Counter Messages & Counter Narratives; a bad idea? Offense narrative = putting your own message out instead of theirs. Providing an alternative meaning within your own context is more effective than just saying they are wrong, because there is often enough evidence to support their claims and just countering the message won’t help change their minds. Agree with their narrative, but tell it in a story that shows your way is better for the target.

51:30 – The Outpost

58:00 – “Narratives change over time, much like rivers change their course.”

PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE IN THE AGE OF SOCIAL NETWORKS

ShadowGate 2 – Key’s To The Kingdom

As the New Year fast approaches, I wanted to take a moment to outline FreedomStream.TV and The BERGY-BIT’s focus going forward into 2023 – PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE; aka PSYOP, in military nomenclature. For thousands of years, humans have been perfecting the manipulation of others minds and emotions, but recent emerging technologies over the last few decades has created a new vulnerability on a global scale to humankind like no other that has come before us as a species.

From the advent of the telegram the game was changed. Gone were the days where geographical constraints limited the ability for mass dissemination of information to a limited audience that would then require additional mediums, like newspapers and leaflets to propagate down to its intended target demographics.

Newspapers and leaflets had their own limitations as well being the communication with your target was essentially one way, with a limited ability to generate feedback from the target that would allow you to tailor your message to more effectively expand your overall influence.

Today, social networks provide both a platform to disseminate your message and generate immediate feedback which you can then use to more effectively target masses of people, usually without their knowledge of the planning and often times deception that was used to create the message your target engages. We can build predictive behavioral profiles today pulling in data from hundreds of sources around the world, using artificial intelligence to know exactly what message you need to send to exactly what group or groups of individuals you are targeting. 

For the next two-years leading up to the 2024 Presidential election, The BERGY-BIT will be focused on PSYOP used by our government, corporations, military, lobby firms, politicians and other non-governmental organizations to influence our perceptions of the world around us.

You want to talk about voting machines stealing elections, there are plenty of grifters pushing that false narrative; we will not, because it serves only to distract us from the true threat of psychological warfare and the tactical, coordinated influence operations, which are the one-and-only true threat that faces our species, more so than famine, nuclear weapons or any other form of kinetics.

We need to wake-up quick!  

IT'S THE PSYOP, STUPID

Drawing from James Carville’s famous line, “it’s the economy, stupid,” I thought we’d try to use what has worked in the past here by some of the pioneer’s of “dirty tricks” and influence. Why reinvent the wheel, right? 

PART TWO

GHOSTS IN THE MACHINE - PART 1

This is part 1 of a 10 part series where I will be providing commentary, criticism and reporting on the use of PSYOP by our government and military.

For 3-years (2007-2010) I provided contract support for the 4th Psychological Operations Group, primarily on contracts in Iraq, and CENTCOM in Tampa, where my military unit, JCSE, just so happened to be headquartered. 

While in Iraq, I spent nearly 8-months providing contract support to then Maj. Brad Burris (see attached DoD memo by Burris), who was the in-country IIA chief for the 4th POG’s IIA (Interactive Internet Activities) operations out of Camp Victory, Baghdad.

Although I will NOT violate National Security by discussing anything classified, the decision by the 8th PSYOP to use YouTube as a means of dissemination, whatever their intentions, has compelled me to provide a voice in opposition of this new, bold PSYOP on American’s to justify their use of unethical and immoral “weaponization” of facts, using truth with the same impact on your target as a kinetic response, just without the “boom”.
