The Only Meddling "Russian Bots" Were Actually Democrat-Led "Experts"

ZeroHedge update on Hamilton 68, the ASD, and the fake Russian bot narrative

New Knowledge used Hamilton 68 to "simulate" the use of fake Russian bot accounts in order to influence last year's Alabama Senatorial election (Q Drop 2635). Zerohedge has written on Hamilton 68 a number of times, pointing out its invalidity as an analytical tool since it was released by the Alliance for Securing Democracy in Aug 2017 (see >>4513627). This new article is an update on a Feb article that has been amended to discuss the recent Alambama scandal, along with the flaws of the entire Russian bot narrative. Excerpt below (see CAP for the rest):

Cybersecurity “experts” in the United States have long alleged that “Russian bots” were used to meddle in the 2016 elections. But, as it turns out, the authors of a Senate report on “Russian election meddling” actually ran the false flag meddling operation.

A week before Christmas, the Senate Intelligence Committee released a report accusing Russia of depressing Democrat voter turnout by targeting African-Americans on social media. Its authors, New Knowledge, quickly became a household name. Described by the New York Times as a group of “tech specialists who lean Democratic,” New Knowledge has ties to both the U.S. military and the intelligence agencies.

The CEO and co-founder of New Knowledge, Jonathon Morgan, had previously worked for DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), the U.S. military’s advanced research agency known for horrific ideas on how to control humanity. Morgan’s partner, Ryan Fox, is a 15-year veteran of the NSA (National Security Agency) who also worked as a computer analyst for the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC). Their unique skill sets have managed to attract the eye of authoritarian investors, who pumped $11 million into the company in 2018 alone, according to a report by RT…..

This scandal is being perpetrated by the United States media and has so far deceived millions, if not more. The botnet claim made a splash on social media and was further amplified by Mother Jones, which based its story on “expert opinion” from Morgan’s dubious creation, Hamilton 68…..

God love you, Baker, I wish I could help. All I've got is this

>>4561372

By accident. I'm actually burnt out enough to be slightly….off my game. Thanks for pointing that out!

All i can do is laugh, you know?

>>4561548

I have; this is new information.

>>4561564

So sorry. I was on overdrive because of the author publishing same article with different title as an update and it turned into a clusterfuck; had to slow down so I can think again.

The first article (1-1-19) is brand new; it does add some info to what we know, although it's info-lite.

Ironically, it's the 2017 article–which is not in our archive as far as I know–that is full of useful info on Hamilton 68. It's Hamilton 68 that is a complete disaster–and it is coming out in a NEW VERSION any day now. It needs to be TOTALLY DISCREDITED. So it's important to know more about it.

Zerohedge has been trying to do this, but we haven't looked at it here much because it all started in summer 2017. Just didn't come up in Qresearch until now.

H68 is designed to shut down all conservative discourse–targets Breitbart, Zerohedge, etc. Us too. Because we sound like "Russian bots." Their idea of Russian bots.

That looks like the model I passed up for a nice Epson machine 10 years ahead of its time.
