lying serves power. when you have the power to create reality, you can distort it with little consequence. the truth is on our side. we have no need to pretend.
It’s true. Being pro Palestine and/or critical of Israel is very dangerous because the truth is ugly. Which is why I think it’s worth thinking about getting ghouls into real trouble with fake screenshots of them acting like a human being i.e. criticizing Israel, calling for support for Palestine.
If done correctly and smartly, it not only gets their asses grilled by their Zionist employers, friends, neighbors, etc. but if they are negatively affected by simply (falsely) being against genocide, that is additional propaganda for us because it exposes the absurdity.
Information warfare is an important aspect of any conflict. It’s not just lies about the enemy or atrocities. We can weaponize the truth.
If you need further clarification, just imagine going around pretending to be some neocon celebrity and being anti Bush and anti war in 2004. Your career is as good as dead. That’s the goal here. Or imagine this headline but related to some some actor getting blacklisted because a fake twitter account impersonating him said to stop bombing refugee camps.
Who said anything about AI or Spam bots?
I took it as being more vocal
You are being too generous
AI bots that debunk common talking points like the bot in r/TheDeprogram would be sweet. Especially if they could be deployed on social media sites 🤔
Not spam, but lies and slander to get genocidal freaks fired or companies tank in profit. Have a fake screenshot of them giving the most milquetoast critique of Israel and watch their social circles turn on them
However see my comment here for a different framing https://hexbear.net/comment/4645519
It’s only a lie in terms of who’s displayed as supporting what. But the truth of genocide will get them in trouble.
A difference is that Leftists usually don't care to or don't have the money to sue someone for slander or libel.
I don't think Zionist corporate ghouls would have a similar hesitation.
An explicitly marketed ComradeBot would be cool as hell though. Just hypertrain some LLM on the entire written corpus of Marxist works and HB/Lemmygrad posts and let people interact with it. It can't do a worse job than Western leftists already do.
Less for "convince the public of whatever point" and more for "explain dialectical materialism using language a 10 year old would understand"
I agree. We need to be more aggressive so people know there is an alternative to the two major parties.
Intentional or not, you are
As the very image in the OP demonstrates, lying discredits you when you are caught, and "don't get caught lel" isn't a strategy.
Communists should use the truth if they believe in the people, rather than lie to the people to manipulate them, thereby positioning yourself above them.
Yeah, lying is a terrible, terrible strategy. Absolutely ridiculous that the above comment has any support.
"They lie so we should, too" is the same logic as fighting fire with fire, fighting capitalism with black capitalism, etc.
