Leave the ruins where they fall…

Current interests are mcyt (the realm, mcsr, and lifesteal). Rules are don't be a bigot, if you are you get blocked. Wowie im 21

WELCOME

atp this is mostly an mcsr blog. there will likely still be some other smp stuff (lifesteal, decayed and decrepit, and the realm if it ever returns) but its mostly mcsr.

There used to be shipping here, there isn't anymore.

I love talking about fandom culture, sustainable agriculture and aquaculture (and fishing), and on occasion politics as well. I am a poet and a writer and so I post that stuff sometimes as well. if you want to chat about any of that send me an ask!

I post fics, art, and headcanons and other such things so stay tuned. I have a big multi-chap fic called Deadspace that is a sci-fi au based on season 5 Timejump that you should all go read.

I am a nosy bitch but I try to avoid discourse and I work on a policy of block and move on.

with all that out of the way! enjoy ur stay!

Do y'all not remember the russian spies that plagued tumblr??

[professor-doc-emeritus]

this site has been on a noticeable decline from the moment they expunged the russian chaos agents

[eternal-fractal]

Tumblr had what

[40ouncesandamule]

I like how the consensus on this site was that despite being a constant dumpster fire of failure, the one thing the admins were able to successfully figure out was an international espionage ring orchestrated from the kremlin as opposed to thinking maybe, just maybe, they banned a bunch of funny black people because hillary ate shit in 2016

[soothsaying]

uhhhhh no this really happened and it was not a conspiracy to ban a bunch of funny black people, unless you mean the fake black people the troll accounts posed (source: npr) as

[trueconfessionsofacurvygirl]

It’s really fucking weird that people are pretending this didn’t happen.

I can specifically speak about lagonegirl as I was a follower. They never spoke to their followers. Their posts all had a similar format to Vox posts at the time. They would leave a written funny comment on their posts turns out those were taken from Twitter users and written out like it was their own words. The many popular Black tumblr users rebloged the posts and added more funny comments and post would get widely shared.

I’m starting to wonder if this is a new Russian scam. Get people to belief it didn’t happen so they can do it again.

[mikkeneko]

having sorted through the replies on this post, there are two camps:

1. people saying yes, russian psyops on social media accounts were totally a thing. they copied real content (which could be traced back to their original sources) but edited and modified in ways that helped them shape the conversation in the direction that served their purpose.  source: here are 5 sources documenting it

2. people saying no, russian psyops was never a thing.  uhhhh, duh! pfff, you believed that? cringe. OBVIOUSly fake. 

[thirtyknives]

I gotta add they were on *all* the damn socials, it’s just that Tumblr hoards its old junk whereas all the others only want new content front and centre. If we didn’t sift through our ashes so much we’d have forgotten, too.

[jellyfishdirigible]

Oh yeah I forgot to add before this fell out of the queue, obviously no one thinks staff figured that out on their own. It was a massive international intelligence operation that also included facebook, reddit, twitter, instagram, youtube, buzzfeed somehow, and teams of competent professional intelligence analysts.

Afterwards the inquiry concluded that the russian trolls (of whom several were in fact indicted) specifically targeted Black voters to divide and undermine their vote

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-49987657

Russian trolls' chief target was 'black US voters' in 2016

A Senate intelligence report says no other group was more targeted in the 2016 election.

They piggybacked on BLM

We’ve lived through such interesting times, haven’t we?

[asteroidtroglodyte]

[without glancing up from my Library Book about History]

Ok guys you do know that every major Empire employs PsyOps pretty much 24/7, right?

The United States Cyber Command is a fucking agency with a published budget.

China’s combination Space Force and Cyberwarfare Army was formally launched in 2015. These agencies have full-time employees, you know? This is what they do.

Russia has been big into telecom as a vector for Imperial directives all throughout the history of the technology and they did not miss a beat when we switched from analog to digital.

Every time there’s a big election, there’s folks on some government payroll on every social worth a damn trying to steer the conversation. This isn’t even new! It’s just another branch of Propaganda, really, which all Empires engage in. They did it with television. They did it with Radio. They did it with newspapers. This is basic Statecraft.

Cultivate Skepticism.

There are far more players to this game than just Russian Trolls, and this year is an important one. Tumblr is a small pond but something is sure to show up. Be wary. Stay calm. Fact check.

Stay safe out there.

tumblr isn’t considered a social media because everyone on here is just talking to themselves
