Leaked files expose Syria psyops veteran astroturfing BreadTube star to counter Covid restriction critics - The Grayzone
thegrayzone.com
By covertly recruiting popular YouTube influencer Abigail Thorn to counter growing opposition to UK gov’t Covid restrictions, psy-ops pros are bringing home the tactics they honed in the Syrian dirty war. Leaked documents have revealed a state-sponsored influence operation designed to undermine critics of the British government’s coronavirus policies by astroturfing a prominent founder of the BreadTube clique of “anti-fascist” YouTube influencers.  The project aims to conduct psychological profiling on British citizens dissenting against policies such as mandatory vaccination and […]

Philosophy Tube is cia/m16 because she promotes pro vax iniatiatives, they go after Shaun for making fun of Jimmy Dore and quote Caleb Maupin’s book on breadtube as if it were a legitimate source and not complete crank shit. This was written by Max Blumenthal too, no wonder Ben Norton jumped ship from this trashfire.

Also in typical Griftzone fashion the article is 1hr long so only people who want to confirm their prexisting biases will actually read the whole thing through.

And for any of the people who want to perform apologia for Blumenthal who for all intents and purposes is the Grayzone I am CIA MI6 FBI Mossad state department NED and whatever other intelligence agencies you can think of

      it gets even whinier when you take a look at the actual video, where Abigail discloses right at the start that the study it is based on was funded by Soros. There's zero incendiary rhethoric in there, there's not even usage of terms like "anti-vaxxer", the study uses words like "vaxine-hesitant" instead because they found that's a more accurate description for a lot of unvaxxed people. it's just a look at their attitudes and their motives. yet they had such a meltdown about it.

    Max Blumenthal is an actual anti vaxxer and grayzone was definitely funded in part by Russian money, just look at how fast the content dropped off after the Ukraine war and sanctions before it came back. (From February 18 to 4 March they produced no content).

    It's a shame because they actually had some really good articles on there and are still writing good stuff (their latest piece on Illan Omar is pretty good), but they had to go and tarnish their reputation like this.

    Like seriously this analysis is really good but no one will read it now without going "lmao it's redbrownzone cringe" when you share it.
