Believe them or not, Russian hackers were openly bragging about using Cambridge Analytica...

...in order to influence US voters to Trump's benefit.

From my post this past July about "Putin's trollmaster" Konstantin Rykov and his postings on Facebook just days after Trump's election:

What was our idea with Donald Trump?

In four years and two days.. It was necessary to get into the brain and capture all possible means of mass perception of reality. To Win Donald in the election of the president of the United States. After that, a political alliance between the United States, France, Russia (and other states) and a new world order will be established.

Four years and two days is a very big time and a very small one. Our idea was crazy, but feasible.

In order for this to be clear, all possible forms of modern man must have been ".

Donald has decided to invite the special science department at Cambridge University.

British scientists from Cambridge Analytica offered to make out of 5 thousand existing human psikhotipov - a "perfect image" of a possible supporter of trump. Then.. put this image back on all psikhotipy and thus find the universal key to each and every one.

The development ended up cost $ 5 million. But! He got his hands on a secret super weapon.

Who's doing a p.r. ad.. will know what that means.

Remember how much money Clinton and "their supporters" spent on a campaign around the world? 5 times more than trump.

But who put 5 times Hillary in the network and became president? Donald Trump too.

It was further to upload these data into information flows and social networks. And we started looking for someone who could do better than others.

At the very beginning of Braves and romantic there was not much. Couple hacker factions, civil journalists from wikileaks and political strategist Михаил Kovalev.

The next step was to develop a system for the transfer of tasks and information so that no gebukha and nsa could burn it.

How can even people do not speak the language of each other, could exchange information quickly, understand each other with wise, feel trends and influence their development?

This system has been programmed for about a year. Another year went for tests and refinement. In the end. In a year with little, we set up "Mediafilʹtr" to everyone who was able to pull up our plot and on August 18, 2015 opened the trump-2016. Portal.

The original Rykov posting is still up at Facebook:

1. Thanks. This is incredibly enlightening.

2. "psikhotipov" means psychotype

There are apparently numerous systems of defining "psychotypes" such as classifications based on Myers-Briggs, or body openings, or colors, or shapes.

Interesting challenge for my fellow DU-ers: create a psychotype of the perfect Turd supporter. Ready, set..go!

3. I'd use the term "gullible" but I'm afraid it's not in the dictionary. nt

4. Just read the DU post about a Raw Story

Ex-CIA officer’s explanation of how vulnerable dotard’s campaign was to Russian influence. While extremely complicated in execution it all seems relatively simple in conception. The traitors here may have started as unwitting accomplices, but they sure as hell did not end up that way. By not enforcing the new Sanctions against Russia dotard is still working with / for them.
