Maybe you missed the 'defence' part?

  That's defense of the government apparatus in the same sense as “Continuity Of Government” — not defense of constituents themselves.

  Friend, I accept that there is a level of snark, when it comes to this stuff, but even rudimentary check of the website in question[1] will tell you that there are two pieces to this program: - ACTIVE SOCIAL ENGINEERING DEFENSE (ASED) - LARGE SCALE SOCIAL DECEPTION (LSD) I presume you are being snarky about ASED. I was thinking about the other one. https://www.usaspending.gov/award/CONT_AWD_FA865018C7886_9700_-NONE-_-NONE- https://www.usaspending.gov/award/CONT_AWD_FA865018C7886_970...

    Where are you seeing that there’s two pieces? I’m only seeing it referred to as one program there. I’m not a govt contracts expert so by all means let me know what I’m missing.

  Was the Patriot Act patriotic?

  Right, just like the DoD is "defending" us.
