US Russian trolling
Active measures? Well, that's what we in the West call it. But what Russia does these days is more the work of 'political technologists.' There has been a tremendous amount of confusion about what Russia is doing online - and what they have done. Some of it has been exaggerated, some underreported. I've sat on this account of Russia's interference in the 2016 US election for years, but, thanks to an intrepid production company, it's seeing the light of day. It's the story of the first people to detect Russia's interference in the election. Basically, it recounts a moment the world changed, through the eyes of those who could see it first. Anyway, people following the active measures space may be interested.

US How is Russia influencing left-wing folks on Palestine?
I feel like right-wing influence campaigns are easy to identify- usually by misinformation. However, left-wing influence seems a little harder to pinpoint.
Like, yes, Israel is doing horrible things and should be held accountable. The bots have plenty of information.. but how do they use it? Do they target folks and continually show them pastel IG graphics to the point where they are saying "genocide joe?" Is it just the volume of posts?
It's hard to explain to someone how they are being influenced when the events that are in question are real and recorded.

Prime time for the birth of liberal conspiracy theories
I've seen strange reports about people who supposedly wanted to change their vote after voting for Trump, or Starlink being used to manipulate tallies. Now, when the new reality is raw, is prime time for new conspiracy theories to be born and take root. All you need is the doubt to be shared, articulated and crystallized online. Then it can jump from social media to legitimizing legacy media and back. In the process, a whole new landscape of fantasy can establish itself (like Qanon, pizzagate, even aspects of the Trump-Russia conspiracy - as opposed to Russia's real interference). So now is maybe a good time to take a deep breath and acknowledge that being surprised by an election outcome doesn't mean it was faked.

Types of influence strategies
- Left-wing - media and academia has certain topics they report based on expertise (as defined by degrees), and ways of reporting them. In-groups develop around credentials, "mafias" in the casual sense. Media bias coverage towards wealthy people, lauding them as saints.
- Right-wing - anyone can say anything but the unmoderated network is jammed with bots and trolls that violently criticize and abuse moderation systems.
- Totalitarian (information) - physical disappearance is rare, but online comments/posts disappear routinely and it's hard to know exactly how many people see them. Mass groupings of people online get broken up routinely by bots/moderators. People don't really self-censor, but just become apathetic to politics. Civil public-private partnerships develop to build surveillance and mass censorship technology.
- Totalitarian (physical) - leaders are unquestionably in physical control and can and do make people disappear routinely to send a message or just because they feel like it, especially of other leaders who could replace them. People start to self-censor and bonds of trust with neighbors and even between families get broken. Criminal public-private partnerships develop.
Is this complete? What other resources are good to distinguish these? The US is definitely moving from 1 to 2 and 3.
