Meta discovered Russia and China used social media to manipulate us … again. (via The ReidOut Blog)

detailing Russia’s manipulation campaign during the 2017 Women’s March in Washington, the dangers of inauthentic accounts poisoning public discourse has come more into focus. Meta’s report should light a fire under Congress to take urgent action before free will in politics becomes a thing of the past.Meta said the Chinese manipulation campaign involved Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and two Czech petition platforms.

Meta said the Chinese campaign focused on four “clusters”: criticizing U.S. foreign policy; attacking liberals from a conservative viewpoint; attacking conservatives from a liberal viewpoint; and instigating Czechs on a host of domestic and international issues. With the Russian campaign, Meta says it took down a “large network” of more than 60 websites “carefully impersonating legitimate news organizations in Europe,” including Spiegel, The Guardian, Bild and ANSA, an Italian news agency.

thereidout No shit Dick Tracy, how long have you known?

thereidout Facebook helped cheat the 2020 Election

thereidout Meta/Facebook is always putting profits first so there must be a money angle here. too?

thereidout You should detail some Western disinfo next.

thereidout 😅😅 meta will find anything US govt needs it to find

thereidout and profiting from each Russian and Chinese click Meta never 'met a' click they didn't like

thereidout Meta just discovered this? Ok

thereidout The six corporations that own 90% of all American media are doing a fantastic job of misinformation, disinformation, and suppression of news.

thereidout

thereidout Duh

thereidout When did they stop Meta was so focused on black/brown ppl & sprinkle of mega they never addressed how China & Russia manipulated social media

thereidout … and did nothing

thereidout The biggest culprits are US propaganda MSM like FB Twitter Meta. The govt even have a smear campaign against China made into laws. America will self implode as those lies, disinfo and conspiracy theories burnt itself up internally.

thereidout What? No way,no way,no way ...... wait,i knew that for years

thereidout Yeah, because 'Meta' would never even think of doing the same thing.

thereidout Yeah Meta!! You mean the Company that used hundreds of millions to influence Democrat candidates campaigns

thereidout No way.

thereidout Ok now do the United States.

thereidout You spelled facilitated wrong

thereidout Good! Your fake news.... Bought out with the white House.

JoeRaimondo

Can you please elaborate on how they're doing it? If they promote certain accounts or individuals then who?

'dIsCoVeReD'?! Zuckerberg conspired in it!

VickerySec “Meta discovered…” ?

And then there was you!

Wait till you find out about the main stream media

Ya think?

No $hit

Weird that no matter how many times it happens the discovery is always past tense.

Why are we concerned that Russia and China are flooding us with misinformation, when Fox and the GOP are doing the same thing?

karolcummins mopeng CiaranFarmer MsMariaT

karolcummins 😂 discovered…

Shocked!! Not!!

The hell you say!

I already know that.

All US company failures and distractions blamed on Russia and China. Ultimately, you're going to have be accountable for your own failings. Sorry, but nobody believes you.

They let it happen. I'm very happy to see Meta is losing altitude.

rUsSiA aNd cHina. More like Meta used Meta to manipulate us... again.

I.e., 'influencers'

So are YOU by promoting Populists!

Of course, Zuck spent $300 million for dem NGOs to pay for ballot traffickers, so that's probably worse

“Discovered” is a weird way to describe “took money to allow it to happen”

Bulk💩

Wait! There's another hoax? So many hoaxes. Almost as if they aren't hoaxes....

Meta FACILITATED Russia and China using social media to manipulate us. Fixed it for you.

No 💩, Sherlock.

Oh, shaveth my bollocks by moonlight, say it isn't so!

Started with Cambridge Analytica back in 15. And Facebook knows it. Good grief

Still took the money and looked the other way.

Yea no 💩! Zuck sucks !

😳really?Shock!!

Again? You mean China Joe.

Meta didn’t discover jack, it had full knowledge and is fine with it

Metanazi’s control speech. They’re afraid of organic spread of ideas.

And produced Biden.

Trump, Trump, Trump…

Our own military has people working online to feed us propaganda, they found the largest user base of Reddit was a MILITARY base and they were running accounts to spread and correct narratives

Is that not what MSNBC are doing as part of Operation Mockingbird? C'mon man, we're not fucking stupid.

Oh what a shock! As they line their pockets with their money. Only way their platform survives.

This is NOT a complicated issue. If a politician blatantly lies, make them immediately tell the truth under oath or repeat the lie and be immediately removed/jailed for perjury. If a news outlet doesn't immediately correct a lie, do the same and air it. IT'S NOT THAT FUCKING HARD

Meta continue pushing Europe war propaganda

The Biden administration is doing the same -

not me

Lol go to Fox News their comment section is all Russian and Chinese agents just typing right wing propaganda to each other, they don’t even realize the right wing base can’t read 😂

Lol what exact social media platform did they use to manipulate us?🤣🤣🤣

Found out or let them?

Again delete facebook insta all of it d3lete it.

gaslighting msnbc

You mean like your propaganda based news station did for liberals in 2020

Under Bidens watch? That's impossible. He protects democracy!

Has Meta discoverd that Meta used social media to manipulate us too?

Welcome to the party .. we've known that since the 2016 election

lol ok

Heres another good story to report on, Jamie Lee Henry - sounds like collusion to me

Duh?

Did Meta discover Meta used social media to manipulate the 2020 election? Asking for a friend

China and Russia doesn't manipulate me, you do.

I would be in favor of a law shutting down all political commentary on all social media 60 days before an election.

Where’s the “it’s Trump’s fault” bi-line?

TRUMP was right again unreal

Okay, but right wingers said this exact thing and were called conspiracy theorists. It's time you pull your heads out of your asses, hmm?

Quit Facebook y’all
