Stop whatever you're doing and listen carefully:
AFRICOM has announced the launch of a new psychological operation meant to influence Africans towards US interests by deploying a US army cyber unit to impersonate Africans online.
Its name "Drongo" comes from the African bird that mimics other animals so that it can steal their food.
That account trying to gaslight you on Twitter with "Traorรฉ is a brutal dictator", "The worst democracy is better than the best dictatorship", and "Stop blaming white people and hold your leaders accountable" may just be an American soldier carrying out his mission.
Use your discernment on the internet!
@omgsidewalks Correction: I still CANNOT believe humans were gifted a planet full of trees, fruit, water, animals and sunshine and then WHITE PEOPLE invented debt, capitalism and war.
Can The U.S.-Funded AI Propaganda Machine Target Africa?
