Troll factory and information warfare

Troll factory and information warfare

Social media is a very important tool for propagandists

The major targets for troll makers are the respected person, who would give effect to information if they would re-share some propaganda. If those people would share propaganda, that contact with many people on the Internet. Many times the troll or political propaganda is looking very much "real" information, but if we would look at that data more careful, there is shared only one side views of the things.

The major thing in troll makers is to target their strike to the audience, where it makes the greatest effect. One of the biggest points of information operations is that when people are sharing false information, they are extending rumors, and this is the purpose of the troll makers. The prime target for those people are the centers of the social network, who are respected persons in their social network.

One idea is to benefit the obey, what those people face in the world. Because some person has respect, that means that people are not want to show that different opinions than this person has. So the troll maker wants to benefit the social position of some member of the social network. The idea is that when the person with respect would believe something, that thing would scale over the rest of the group.

If a big group of the people starts to believe or share something, they would get more and more readers to trolls. The big group of people has big social mass in social media, and that would deliver the information to many people by benefiting those social networks.

The thing is that the prime troll itself might be very easy to notice as the false information, but the idea of it is that other people will tell about that thing by using their own words. That would cause the effect, that the rumor becomes the truth in the mind of the people. If an adult people see some trolls, that person might think that is naive or shares only one part thoughts about the things, what is claimed to happen.

Children cannot separate right or wrong information

But when this kind of things is told to children, that thing would seem true, and if the troll maker is an adult or if that adult claims to represent some kind of official authority, would children believe this kind of things. And one of the best things, what Russian troll maker would tell to the youngster is being the member of FSB, "what is one kind of police". In this case, the propagandist claims to be the same kind of policeman like in some person in a police car in western society. And in the information warfare is used the same method as in some school harassment cases. There are many people, who have read the troll, and somehow they have pressed "like" by accident. After that, the troll maker would start to tell people, that some person pushes "like".

The idea is the same as in the schoolyard, where a group of youngsters is coming to some person and say, that if you are not saying "yes" we will beat that person. Then those persons would go to the teacher and say, that "here is a couple of witnesses, who are seeing, that some inmate has this or that opinion". The best way to notice, if the thing is a troll, is that there is used the threat of violence or some other kind of force. That means if somebody has a different kind of opinions, this inmate would just yell to silent.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme.

The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
