I did mention that at some point yes.

This ... situation... is bigger than the current election.. but it's also bigger than Iran, if I may be so bold. This is the next step in 5th generation warfare.
Sigint is becoming signal/vs/noise war... the war is won by those who have some idea what's going on and can re-transmit better signals.

The mind wars have begun, and the spark, of all places, has been Iran.

The Twitter thing is wild (literally and) in that it is the parsing of messages from competing, some intentionally deceptive, lots of noise, but all together come together into something - - even the noise of babblers, panic, trolling and misinformation is like EVP.
Made me think of an almost impenetrable code to use Twitter against background noise: messages split across hundreds of thousands of accounts that will only make sense if read in a very particular sequence.
Of course, maybe that's what's happening anyway.

Agh, I think I just spawned a Qabbalistic Twitter Cult in my head.

Not to make light of people being hurt on the ground though, so:
