     @greycat I have inside knowledge that the US military contracts for projects to do mass propaganda but they get around the legal restrictions by not doing it in English. The Smith–Mundt Modernization Act of 2012 opened the door for this whereas previously it was completely banned for them to target domestic audiences

     @feld @greycat

     The 👀👀👁️ spy on each other to get around the "no domestic intelligence gathering" and then they share the data.

     That's why they were so excited when they signed "Sharing information to stop the terrorists" a few years back.

     @greycat do you mean the CIA influencing our "democracy" or other countries' "democracy". For a lot of people it was never categorically bad, you just don't do it to your own people (we do tho lol)
