Putin Paranoia

Broadcasters say the Russians bent Brexit but about 78% of the tweets came after the Brexit vote on 23 June 2016

There is no doubt that Eastern Europe and Russia offer cheap social media campaigns.  My own experience suggests that the Remain campaign use Ukrainian social media trolls, amongst others, and it appears that those running PR Companies on behalf of Brexit used Trolling agencies that employed Russians.

The total extent of the "damage" is hard to estimate. The fact that this sort of social media activity is fairly mindless means that few social media users will have actually engaged with it. The Guardian suggests 419 Twitter accounts run by the commercial, Russian Internet Research Agency, that supplies paid social media intervention, were involved in Brexit campaigning.

According to the Guardian 'Prof Laura Cram, director of neuropolitics research at the University of Edinburgh, told the Guardian that at least 419 of those accounts tweeted about Brexit a total of 3,468 times – mostly after the referendum had taken place... "the content of the Brexit tweets overall was “quite chaotic and it seems to be aimed at wider disruption. There’s not an absolutely clear thrust. We pick up a lot on refugees and immigration."

She stressed that more research is needed to establish the extent of the tweets’ influence, and urged caution about drawing conclusions from the relatively small number of troll accounts so far identified. About 78% of the tweets came after the Brexit vote on 23 June 2016, she added.'

The fact that the Remain campaign also uses Eastern European trolling farms and used Lord Bell of PR firm Bell-Pottinger to make the campaign Racism vs Anti-Racism, when Brexit really had nothing to do with race, seems to have gone unnoticed. See  Big Business attack Brexit.

The most interesting feature of all of this is that the pro-Banker/Multinational broadcast media are using this story of Russian intervention globally without mentioning that many countries provide "trolling services".  The same "Project Paranoia" about the Russians is being spun worldwide.  This shows that the Banker/Multinational coalition are organised and very dangerous.  See Globalization.

The Internationalist Multinational-Banker coalition actually set up the Remain campaign in the UK.  Yes, really.  It was US funding that started the StrongerIn campaign  and Remain used foreign banks such as Goldman Sachs (a particularly dubious US investment bank) and multinationals such as RyanAir and BMW to spread Project Fear.  US President Obama even told the UK voters how to vote!

The Falklands have always been Argentine - Las Malvinas son Argentinas

"The Falklands have always been Argentine" is taught to every Argentine child as a matter of faith.  What was Argentina during the time when it "always" possessed Las Malvinas?  In this article I will trace the history of Argentina in the context of its physical and political relationship with "Las Malvinas", the Falkland Islands.  The Argentine claim to the Falkland Islands dates from a brief episode in 1831-32 so it is like Canada claiming the USA despite two centuries of separate development. This might sound like ancient history but Argentina has gone to war for this ancient claim so the following article is well worth reading. For a summary of the legal case see: Las Malvinas: The Legal Case Argentina traces its origins to Spanish South America when it was part of the Viceroyalty of the Rio del Plata.  The Falklands lay off the Viceroyalty of Peru, controlled by the Captain General of Chile.  In 1810 the Falklands were far from the geographical b...

Do Muslim women want to wear the Burka (Burqua)?

Do all islamic women want to wear burka?  Can a woman's freedom to wear what she wants oppress other women?  Are western feminists aiding a cult that is dedicated to the destruction of feminism?  I hope to answer these questions in this article.  I would much appreciate any comments you might have if you disagree with the article, especially if you have a feminist viewpoint. Here is a description of the problems of wearing burka by a woman of Asian origin: "Of course, many veiled Muslim women argue that, far from being forced to wear burkas by ruthless husbands, they do so out of choice. And I have to take them at their word. But it is also very apparent that many women are forced behind the veil. A number of them have turned up at my door seeking refuge from their fathers, mothers, brothers and in-laws - men brain-washed by religious leaders who use physical and mental abuse to compel the girls to cover up. It started with the headscarf, then went to th...

The Roots of New Labour

This article was written in 2009 but is still useful to understand the motivation behind New Labour - from the global financial crisis through the over-regulated, surveillance society to the break up of the UK into nationalities. The past lives of Labour Ministers have long been sanitised and many biographies that include their shady communist and Marxist pasts are inaccessible or removed from the net. The truth about these guys is similar to discovering that leading Tories were members of the Nazi Party. If you are a British voter and do not think that this is important then I despair for British politics.  Had these people taken jobs in industry their past might be forgotten and forgiven but they continued in left wing politics and even today boast of being "Stalinist" or International Socialist (or in Blair's case, Trotskyist ). Peter Mandelson (first Secretary of State and Labour Supremo): "Mr Mandelson was born into a Labour family - his grandfather wa...
