2013
Facebook begins to crack down on "hate speech"
>Following a campaign by 100 advocacy groups, Facebook agreed to update its policy on hate speech. The campaign highlighted content promoting domestic and sexual violence against women, and used over 57,000 tweets and more than 4,900 emails that caused withdrawal of advertising from the site by 15 companies, including Nissan UK, House of Burlesque and Nationwide UK. The social media website initially responded by stating that "while it may be vulgar and offensive, distasteful content on its own does not violate our policies".[90] It decided to take action on May 29, 2013, after it "become clear that our systems to identify and remove hate speech have failed to work as effectively as we would like, particularly around issues of gender-based hate."[91]

2014
>In February 2014, Facebook announced that it would be buying mobile messaging company WhatsApp for US$19 billion in cash and stock

2015
Facebook begins to filter "fake news"
>As of January 21, 2015, Facebook's algorithm is programmed to filter out false or misleading content, such as fake news stories and hoaxes, and will be supported by users who select the option to flag a story as "purposefully fake or deceitful news". According to Reuters, such content is "being spread like a wildfire" on the social media platform. Facebook maintained that "satirical" content, "intended to be humorous, or content that is clearly labeled as satire," will be taken into account and should not be intercepted.[110] The algorithm, however, has been accused of maintaining a "filter bubble", where both material the user disagrees with[111] and posts with a low level of likes, will also not be seen.[112]

Thanks for this post. How would you broadly categorise the situation? I would see it as, 1) the controllers, 2) the anarchists, and 3) the easily played. As the three broad categories.

1) is the deep state/mega corps even if that transitions from one group to another, capitalism just means those who acquire wealth = power over 3)

2) is the hackers, the leakers. Enemies of 1) and appealing to 3)

3) is everyone else along for the ride, following the next piece of titillation as they sleepwalk through life lead by the nose.

I ask this because any research needs a skeleton conceptualisation to drop the pieces into. Time lining as you have done is one type of skeleton.

Your timeline needs to include the dramatic impact of 4chan/pol/ on the US election. At it's farthest extreme those /pol/ fags might end up starting a war against evil groups that have been powerful for thousands of years!

Kek isn't finished yet.

The dust hasn't settled yet. I would like to start with a timeline between 2010-2015 first before we add 2016 and 2017 to the list.

It begins earlier and coincides with the latter trend on focus of Islamic terrorism. Islamic terrorism is a controlled opposition tied to the elite Arab nations, of course meaning backing from Israel. A problem is set up to gain power all the while the problem is not being solved until sufficient power is met. A dual edged sword.

My mistake.. apologies

Not accepted.

o-okay.

I see it as 1) The deep state, 2) Other state actors, 3) Conflicting Interests, 4) Useful idiots, 5) The rebels, 6) The general public/normies

1) Is the deep state/elite and their goons.
2) Is foreign actors such as Russia and China. It may be in their interests just to stir shit up. (I'm not suggesting Russia hacked the election, but there is evidence that they have given support to "Far right parties") https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/dec/08/russia-europe-right-putin-front-national-eu
3) Elites who's interests conflict with the interests of the deep state.
4) Think SJWs and Antifa
5) Anyone who is aware of what is going on and seeks to stop it.
6) Self Explanatory

Don't worry, I still love you, Vril.

>1)
Israel and Saudi Arabia
>2)
Julian Assange, Snowden, WikiLeaks (now compromised. This is evident now since the government has taken over the role of leaker, such as in the JFK files as well the new trail of bread cumbs type leaking (easing people into being under surveillance.)

Google Is Not What It Seems
by Julian Assange

>Eric Schmidt is an influential figure, even among the parade of powerful characters with whom I have had to cross paths since I founded WikiLeaks. In mid-May 2011 I was under house arrest in rural Norfolk, about three hours’ drive northeast of London. The crackdown against our work was in full swing and every wasted moment seemed like an eternity. It was hard to get my attention. But when my colleague Joseph Farrell told me the executive chairman of Google wanted to make an appointment with me, I was listening.

>It was Cohen who, while he was still at the Department of State, was said to have emailed Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey to delay scheduled maintenance in order to assist the aborted 2009 uprising in Iran.4 His documented love affair with Google began the same year, when he befriended Eric Schmidt as they together surveyed the post-occupation wreckage of Baghdad. Just months later, Schmidt re-created Cohen’s natural habitat within Google itself by engineering a “think/do tank” based in New York and appointing Cohen as its head. Google Ideas was born.

> Later that year the two co-wrote a policy piece for the Council on Foreign Relations’ journal Foreign Affairs, praising the reformative potential of Silicon Valley technologies as an instrument of US foreign policy.5 Describing what they called “coalitions of the connected,”6 Schmidt and Cohen claimed that:

> > Democratic states that have built coalitions of their militaries have the capacity to do the same with their connection technologies. . . . They offer a new way to exercise the duty to protect citizens around the world [emphasis added].7

> In the same piece they argued that “this technology is overwhelmingly provided by the private sector.” Shortly afterwards, Tunisia. then Egypt, and then the rest of the Middle East, erupted in revolution. The echoes of these events on online social media became a spectacle for Western internet users. The professional commentariat, keen to rationalize uprisings against US-backed dictatorships, branded them "Twitter revolutions." Suddenly everyone wanted to be at the intersection point between US global power and social media, and Schmidt and Cohen had already staked out the territory. With the working title “The Empire of the Mind,” they began expanding their article to book length, and sought audiences with the big names of global tech and global power as part of their research.

The DNC failed to see the internet coming, but others did. Bow to your masters.

Titans grow, titans reign, and titans die. Power is only an illusion that others give you. You only have a master if you make them your master.

REX-84. That was not an "exercise" by any means. It occurred, and Reagan aided it.
