If you are pained by external things, it is not they that disturb you, but your own judgement of them. And it is in your power to wipe out that judgement now.

Complaining does not work as a strategy. We all have finite time and energy. Any time we spend whining is unlikely to help us achieve our goals. And it won't make us happier.

#US / Israel Secretly Targets U.S. Lawmakers With Influence Campaign on Gaza War
#NYT's Sheera Frenkel reveals a covert influence campaign orchestrated by Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs to sway American public opinion and U.S. lawmakers on the Gaza war. The campaign, which began in October, used fake social media accounts, artificial intelligence-powered chatbots, and fake news sites to promote pro-Israel messaging.
Key Findings:
1. Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs commissioned the operation: The ministry allocated approximately $2 million to the campaign and hired Stoic, a political marketing firm in Tel Aviv, to carry it out.
2. Fake social media accounts and AI-generated posts: The campaign used hundreds of fake accounts on X, Facebook, and Instagram, posing as real Americans, to post pro-Israel comments. ChatGPT, an AI-powered chatbot, was used to generate many of the posts.
3. Targeting U.S. lawmakers, particularly Black Democrats: The campaign focused on over a dozen members of Congress, including Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Senator Raphael Warnock, and Representative Ritchie Torres, with posts urging them to continue funding Israel's military.
[...] The campaign focused on more than a dozen members of Congress, including Representative Ritchie Torres, left, and Hakeem Jeffries, the House minority leader.
4. Creation of fake news sites: The campaign created three fake English-language news sites featuring pro-Israel articles, which were then promoted on social media platforms.
[...] The campaign also created three fake news sites with names like Non-Agenda and UnFold Magazine, which stole and rewrote material from outlets including CNN and The Wall Street Journal to promote Israel’s stance during the war, according to FakeReporter’s analysis. Fake accounts on Reddit then linked to the articles on the so-called news sites to help promote them.
5. Sloppy execution: The operation was criticized for its sloppy execution, with profile pictures not matching fictional personas and stilted language used in posts.
