Can you have fake social media accounts to spread propaganda online without doing it covertly? Is any nation transparent about doing that? I'd rather they didn't do it at all, but I expect everyone does and will because it's effective (when it's not obvious at least) and easy.
- dundarious 4y agoHaving fake accounts purporting to be real people is what’s covert, so I think we agree. I also agree that states tend towards such action, but there should at least be an antagonistic relationship with the security state apparatus. Instead, both parties (with minor blips over incredibly personal matters) love the FBI, CIA, etc.
