From my experiences on Twitter with various anonymous accounts parroting the state department line, and US military doctrine for total domination of the battle space, I am absolutely sure they are doing this either via a contractor, ally, or inside cyber command or DIA etc. The 2012 NDAA removed the ban on US domestic influence operations.

You gotta remember. These guys used to do COINTELPRO (and never documented stopping it either). You think they won't troll people on the internet?

- jstarfish 3y agoIt's not a good look for us to be promoting international adoption of the internet while being caught using it to commit subterfuge abroad. I've never heard of any such domestic department myself. Like the rest of our intelligence work, I assume we outsource that job to the Israelis.
- nocsi 3y agoYou can see exactly who is performing the work based on defense contractor job postings matching sock puppet programs. Spoiler: a lot of agencies have a program need for this type of thing
- tehjoker 3y agoCan you elaborate? That's so interesting.
