Often, an enemy will subvert a foe through the use of psychological propaganda, ultimately (sometimes after a long time) shifting the popular mindset to suit its purposes.

The USA has used the airplane-dropped leaflet method for a long, long time. What do you think those leaflets say? It's almost always about why the existing government is corrupt and has committed treasonous acts, etc.

Therefore, what if the proliferation of conspiracy theories via the internet, the core of which are rooted in anti-establishment sentiment, is the work of your enemy?

After all, it's not as if the North Koreans or Russians (as examples) can fly airplanes over your neighborhood and drop anti-US-government pamphlets in your yard.

But they CAN deliver it right to your computer screen.

I would completely agree with what you said OP, if you used the term "our enemy", instead of "your enemy".

I could literally interpret your message as an anti RT thread. ;))

I would think that "enemy" is subjective to the reader, thereby making it "their" enemy, whoever they believe that to be.

Yes but not from opposite countries, from the elite. All roads lead to Rome. They're the official armies and the rogue ones ,they're every path.

However truth is more important than lies. Seeing through them and waking up within to hold Peace and Love and see a better world.

The proliferation of conspiracy theories and the documented efforts of anti-US actors to foment those theories is 100% information warfare.
Watching people here gobble that shit up is one of the saddest things I've ever seen.
