I'm not convinced that "12th salty meme battalion" shitposting from their secure basement (moooom it's called a SCIF!) really have a similar experience to anyon

I'm not convinced that "12th salty meme battalion" shitposting from their secure basement (moooom it's called a SCIF!) really have a similar experience to anyone described in the post. On the other hand, there is definitely a universal information warfare experience, I think (so, I agree with you). All the 90's hackers I know used to think it was about the bits and bytes and buffer overflows and making the computer do stuff - and got blindsided when it turned out the important "battleground" was and still is in the human mind. At least until the power goes out. All that stuff will be worms and pre-established access and will happen really fast.

> "12th salty meme battalion" A.k.a. the British Army 77th Bde? [0] Remote pilots flying Reaper / Predator vehicles from their home bases are another example that would be interesting to study. They fly missions that can involve lethal Hellfire attacks for a few hours a day and then 'go home' to their families.
