COINTELPRO Techniques for dilution, misdirection and control of a internet forum.

COINTELPRO Techniques for dilution, misdirection and control of a internet forum..

There are several techniques for the control and manipulation of a internet forum no matter what, or who is on it. We will go over each technique and demonstrate that only a minimal number of operatives can be used to eventually and effectively gain a control of a 'uncontrolled forum.'

Technique #1 - 'FORUM SLIDING'

If a very sensitive posting of a critical nature has been posted on a forum - it can be quickly removed from public view by 'forum sliding.' In this technique a number of unrelated posts are quietly prepositioned on the forum and allowed to 'age.' Each of these misdirectional forum postings can then be called upon at will to trigger a 'forum slide.' The second requirement is that several fake accounts exist, which can be called upon, to ensure that this technique is not exposed to the public. To trigger a 'forum slide' and 'flush' the critical post out of public view it is simply a matter of logging into each account both real and fake and then 'replying' to prepositined postings with a simple 1 or 2 line comment. This brings the unrelated postings to the top of the forum list, and the critical posting 'slides' down the front page, and quickly out of public view. Although it is difficult or impossible to censor the posting it is now lost in a sea of unrelated and unuseful postings. By this means it becomes effective to keep the readers of the forum reading unrelated and non-issue items.

Technique #2 - 'CONSENSUS CRACKING'

A second highly effective technique (which you can see in operation all the time at http://www.abovetopsecret.com) is 'consensus cracking.' To develop a consensus crack, the following technique is used. Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.' Thus the uninformed reader will most like develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'

Technique #3 - 'TOPIC DILUTION'

Topic dilution is not only effective in forum sliding it is also very useful in keeping the forum readers on unrelated and non-productive issues. This is a critical and useful technique to cause a 'RESOURCE BURN.' By implementing continual and non-related postings that distract and disrupt (trolling ) the forum readers they are more effectively stopped from anything of any real productivity. If the intensity of gradual dilution is intense enough, the readers will effectively stop researching and simply slip into a 'gossip mode.' In this state they can be more easily misdirected away from facts towards uninformed conjecture and opinion. The less informed they are the more effective and easy it becomes to control the entire group in the direction that you would desire the group to go in. It must be stressed that a proper assessment of the psychological capabilities and levels of education is first determined of the group to determine at what level to 'drive in the wedge.' By being too far off topic too quickly it may trigger censorship by a forum moderator.

Technique #4 - 'INFORMATION COLLECTION'

Information collection is also a very effective method to determine the psychological level of the forum members, and to gather intelligence that can be used against them. In this technique in a light and positive environment a 'show you mine so me yours' posting is initiated. From the number of replies and the answers that are provided much statistical information can be gathered. An example is to post your 'favourite weapon' and then encourage other members of the forum to showcase what they have. In this matter it can be determined by reverse proration what percentage of the forum community owns a firearm, and or a illegal weapon. This same method can be used by posing as one of the form members and posting your favourite 'technique of operation.' From the replies various methods that the group utilizes can be studied and effective methods developed to stop them from their activities.

Technique #5 - 'ANGER TROLLING'

Statistically, there is always a percentage of the forum posters who are more inclined to violence. In order to determine who these individuals are, it is a requirement to present a image to the forum to deliberately incite a strong psychological reaction. From this the most violent in the group can be effectively singled out for reverse IP location and possibly local enforcement tracking. To accomplish this only requires posting a link to a video depicting a local police officer massively abusing his power against a very innocent individual. Statistically of the million or so police officers in America there is always one or two being caught abusing there powers and the taping of the activity can be then used for intelligence gathering purposes - without the requirement to 'stage' a fake abuse video. This method is extremely effective, and the more so the more abusive the video can be made to look. Sometimes it is useful to 'lead' the forum by replying to your own posting with your own statement of violent intent, and that you 'do not care what the authorities think!!' inflammation. By doing this and showing no fear it may be more effective in getting the more silent and self-disciplined violent intent members of the forum to slip and post their real intentions. This can be used later in a court of law during prosecution.

Technique #6 - 'GAINING FULL CONTROL'

It is important to also be harvesting and continually maneuvering for a forum moderator position. Once this position is obtained, the forum can then be effectively and quietly controlled by deleting unfavourable postings - and one can eventually steer the forum into complete failure and lack of interest by the general public. This is the 'ultimate victory' as the forum is no longer participated with by the general public and no longer useful in maintaining their freedoms. Depending on the level of control you can obtain, you can deliberately steer a forum into defeat by censoring postings, deleting memberships, flooding, and or accidentally taking the forum offline. By this method the forum can be quickly killed. However it is not always in the interest to kill a forum as it can be converted into a 'honey pot' gathering center to collect and misdirect newcomers and from this point be completely used for your control for your agenda purposes.

CONCLUSION

Remember these techniques are only effective if the forum participants DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THEM. Once they are aware of these techniques the operation can completely fail, and the forum can become uncontrolled. At this point other avenues must be considered such as initiating a false legal precidence to simply have the forum shut down and taken offline. This is not desirable as it then leaves the enforcement agencies unable to track the percentage of those in the population who always resist attempts for control against them. Many other techniques can be utilized and developed by the individual and as you develop further techniques of infiltration and control it is imperative to share then with HQ.

Couldn't resist posting this as the ground slides beneath my feet and I can hear the moss growing over my bones. There was a clear sky.

And talking of plots and schemes, just look at this:

The Existentialist Cowboy 22nd June 2009
American Airlines Exposes Bush's Big Lie: Flight 11 DID NOT FLY on 911!
by Len Hart, The Existentialist Cowboy

American Airlines itself is the source for information that AA Flights 11 (North Tower) and 77 (Pentagon) did not fly on 911. These flights are critical to the government's crumbling cover up! Without those flights, Bush and his murderousco-conspirators will have to revise the big lie. They will have to concoct yet another cover story from the ground up! A cover up is on the brink of collapse when those guilty of capital crimes and high treason either turn on one another or are forced to revise the lie!
Here's another interesting snippet on that fascinating subject dated 22nd June 2009:

Kurt Sonnenfeld : Exclusive interview
9/11 FEMA videographer at Ground Zero goes public
As official videographer for the U.S. government, Kurt Sonnenfeld was detailed to Ground Zero on September 11, 2001, where he spent one month filming 29 tapes: "What I saw at certain moments and in certain places ... is very disturbing!" He never handed them over to the authorities and has been persecuted ever since. Kurt Sonnenfeld lives in exile in Argentina, where he wrote "El Perseguido" (the persecuted). His recently-published book tells the story of his unending nightmare and drives another nail into the coffin of the government’s account of the 9/11 events. Below is an exclusive interview by The Voltaire Network.
This is a good thread. It needs to be brought to the top and examined thoroughly. As MSM just becomes a distraction tool for the stupids, the real nitty-gritty is being done in the blathersphere. The fats know this, and are employing their pay-per-post Sturmabteilung in the strangest places.

I'm kinda disappointed that we haven't gotten them here... yet.
Oh darling Waldo you're back!

There were a few tears here, I confess, when you went to the woods.
Though I am sure the trees had much to tell you.
Are you there still?

The trees in Holborn told me so much, it was terrible. They have been shorn, their meanings no longer clearly made manifest in the London air, translating grey into green amid their symphonies.
Our greatest teachers of thought and being
brutalised on the public streets,
their meanings no longer clearly made manifest,

if I could tell you what I saw, how different everything feels,
I hardly dare speak
I hardly dare move
I hardly dare lift my camera.

I didn't dare lift my camera, crossing an enormous junction in Holborn one evening, wondering how I had got the date so wrong, thinking about the peculiar pruning in Red Lion Square that ravished the private shady spots and blotted privacy out here and there with trees bereft of the balance that had taken them tall and made them magnanimous.

And there at the junction was a bus approaching in slow and almost stately staggers as they do. It was the only one, so clear to see, the notice that said, no, it couldn't be, it didn't surely?

And now I wonder if it did say that, because I didn't dare to lift my camera. I didn't dare make the many rapid movements required to extricate my camera from its place of safety because I didn't want to draw attention to myself.
That is the way I feel about the cameras.
There are so many cameras.
And I wanted mine and didn't dare get it
because

I didn't want strangers in some shiny control room saying who's that? She looks too cocky, go and sort her out. But I bought cherries and surreptitiously spat them into the street,
although I am sure its an offence

And Lara knows I stopped on Waterloo Bridge spitting cherry stones into the Thames, and thinking of her, wondering how to answer her question.

The notice on the bus, was it "Be evil"? Was it?
Oh Em- this ol man's jus fine for a grumpy ol man. The trees hadn't much to say... either that, or I have forgotten how to listen. The Big Sea Waters look a lot healthier... but I saw no ships at all. Unusual for this time of year.

I tried to find the origins of this article... not much luck. DID find it listed on many Freeper-type sites. Buncha Elmer Fudd dickheads. I DID see this mentioned several times: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones They're really on about Socawists and gun contwol... and those wascwwy "cowectivists,"and they have no fucking idea what that means any more than they did "communism." Just re-channeling their cold-war programming until the Paulitos come out of the woodwork again. I believe the "libertarians" set fire to that "collectivist" meme... I heard El Paulo use it many times... and I wish they had it all up their ass with a flaming bag of feathers.

THIS is a cool video: http://www.therealfoodchannel.com/page/18.html and it's my theory that all that fat is going to their heads. Got back to all-Jacko-all-the-time MSM... concluded that most of our "media" is just like animal fat. Went to an energy fair, it was cool. Found out that many of the wind people are VERY skeptical about the Mariah-power vertical turbines. Bergy seems to be cutting the mustard. Stayed the night in a hotel... and the fat-box was playing Sundy-morning nattering heads.

Oh, they were on and on about the Iranian "elections," and the irony was so thick, I couldn't find my danish. Finally, I couldn't stand it... and I asked a couple old energy hip-pies at the next table: "...can you believe ANY of this??" Naturally, they thought I was talking about veracity instead of irony. Just then, one of the heads was blathering about the "...militarization of the Iranian population." Oy!!! I asked how many Iranians had yellow-magnets on their cars and how many places they had bases. Poor old dudes got really uncomfortable... especially the ones I was sitting with... looking around the room to see if any of the normals heard me.

The normals were WAY too busy stuffing their faces and brains with shit. The idea that "elections" aren't "real" is... as ms waldo sez, "outer-space shit." You'd do better talking about martians. Or angels. "Fake elections" is so far over-the-top, I believe it explains a lot of things. "We control what goes on in this country," sez one of the energy boyz. Oh really? sezzeye, how long have y'all been energy activists and how has THAT been going over the last 30 YEARS? "Wull... when more people find out about it..." sez they. Oh really? sezzeye, how many people were against the bail-outs... and what did "they" DO? Or let's put it this way... how many of us think the occupationS are a bad idea... and have "they" left any of those places yet?? That was it. We had to leave.

You can speak your mind in the land of the free.

I catch myself saying, "Oh Really?" a lot these days.
Now here is a link to a simply wonderful
interview with the lucid and svelte Annie Machon
, who is riding to our rescue on a white horse, reminding everyone how things should be done by doing what's right and being true. An intrepid soul.
MI5 Whistleblower Speaks Out: The Inner Workings of the Secret State.
http://911blogger.com/node/20356
Annie Machon, Cambridge Univaersity Classics graduate, has worked in the areas of counter-subversion and international terrorism within M15. After becoming aware of gross mismanagement and state-sponsored murder, Machon resigned and blew the whistle. Machon stands with experts in many fields who believe that there are serious problems with the official narrative of 9/11 that need to be investigate.
I've posted this again because I think it's important, and I'm not sure anyone noticed it the first time. What she says is very interesting indeed.
