That's a relief! I admit it's hard for me sometimes to glean the meaning of some of the things you say, and I'm so surrounded by mania and maniacs and have been for so long that I can easily misread your intent.

We are living in a multi-layered landscape of professionally engineered psychological warfare, people's information sources are often both siloed and deeply unreliable, and the nature of Active Measures is that it uses the edges to attack the middle, which in the case of the 'left' gives us people like Jimmy Dore, Aaron Maté, and Russell Brand.

This does not mean that I think these people and the people like them are actually on the IRA (not the Irish one) or FSB payroll, but that they themselves are vulnerable to the same disinformational attacks that we all are, and feel compelled to share it.

I know this, because it happened to me.
