⚡️Nice journal reference here and citation to my work on Disinfolklore.
Does two things of particular value to me as a writer:
1. Is a record that I created the Portmanteau ‘Disinfolklore.’
2. Correctly categorises ‘Disinformation’ as a particular form of ‘Disinfolklore.’
Thus giving me the whole field (which I’d be too humble to have claimed too loudly) while confining all the work focussing on Disinformation to a local province or region of my field.
Prof Yolles cites my work, the result of @peterjukes visionary decision to commission for @BylineTimes an early piece on Disinfolklore in Byline Supplement. Work now presented https://www.Disinfolklore .com in a very innovative format. Thanks @peterjukes Thanks Prof Yolles.

⚡️ My Munich speech: Our Disinfolklore Universe ~
Battling Archetypes
It’s appropriate to be speaking about our Disinfolklore Universe at a Pirate Party Munich Security conference event.
Those who founded the Pirate Party get what I am about to speak to you about.
There’s a flow between on the one hand culture, art, films, literature about pirates and geopolitical security.
Those whom we entrust with securing our conditions of civilised life don’t seem to understand this. This is partly why they’re such easy marks for Russian and MAGA Disinfolklore.
They get wrapped up so easily in Russian or MAGA trolls, like flies in a spider's web, it’s very hard for them even to understand they’re trapped inside Old Thinking.
Today I’m going to offer a perspective on what I call our Disinfolklore Universe. And I’m also going to offer a means to escape the troll memes wrap us up inside when we fall for MAGA or Russian Disinfolklore.
None of this is easy. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t have all the answers.
Whenever you hear anyone talk about Disinformation or Disinfolklore as if it happens to other people. As if only stupid people fall for trolls. Whenever you hear chatter like that, be certain those people are easy marks for trolls. For MAGA and Russian Disinfolklore.
Today we live in a true Disinfolklore Universe.
The fabric of every dimension of our lives - work, personal relationships, life choices, fates - is infused with aspects of Druidey Don and Duncey Putin’s memetic onslaught.
Our Moods/Motivations/Intentions/Attitudes are being formed by what I call ‘Disinfolklore.’
Directly – through whichever media memes we consume.
Or indirectly, through our own minds and those of others, influencing us from archetypes created and evolving from Disinfolklore.
Batman and Robin are running America – you saw Elmo, Druidey Don, and the kid in the White House the other day?

⚡️Podcast | Pensées (122): US declares war against European Values.
United States’s newly published National Security Strategy is a declaration of war against those of us fighting to retain the post-World War Two legal and social orders.
When America states that it wants to “restore Europe’s civilisational confidence” Donald’s apparatchiks mean: we want Hand Maid’s Tale Europe.
We want the human rights architecture to be disassembled.
Our 1930’s archetype of Masculinity must be privileged over societies where discrimination against humans on certain protected grounds (sex, sexual preference, political views, national origins,…) is outlawed.
The United States has decided to “reestablish” “strategic stability” with Russia, which seeks to kill millions of Europeans. Having murdered around 2m people since its full-scale invasion and forcibly transferred more than 700,000 Ukrainian children into Russia, the credibility of Russia’s threats against us is high.
More sinister than that is the capture of US national security strategy by those inside America who wish to promote Russia’s political proxies inside Europe. Far Right and far left political forces in Europe operate with Russian funding and know-how. In Romania MAGA “data analytics” guy Brad Parscale boasted of helping Russia’s proxy to capture a NATO state, just before Romanian intelligence services published documents demonstrating Georgescu was cheating.
That time the Romanian government and its Supreme Court cancelled the election.
However, now America, in coalition with China (through its brainwashing TikTok) and Russia (together with its brainwashing Telegram Disinfolklore propagation App) are claiming, as a matter of National Security Strategy, the duty to “cultivate resistance” inside democratic European states to Europe’s priorities of maintaining and retaining the post-World War Two legal orders.
The credibility of these threats by America is bolstered by information this week that US is lobbying bilaterally European states to oppose loaning Ukraine €100b so it can accelerate its destruction of the Ruschist Nazi state.
Ultimately what this schizophrenic National Security Strategy is attempting to do is to embed, intensify and promote the troll that Europe is a basket case. It’s precisely the same immanence in Russian and Chinese anti-Western propaganda: archetype Europe and Ukraine as helpless.
Sadly, many inside Europe adopt this archetype and promote it. The solution is for Europe to act in concert as it it did against the United Kingdom’s three-year campaign to separate Ireland from its EU allies during the UK’s Brexit saga.
English ministers were dispatched by Cameron, May and Johnson governments to every EU member state repeatedly to importune them to abandon Ireland. The EU remained and remain united against such external enemies. Now as Joseph Borel, former EU high commissioner for Foreign Affairs recently opined “America is no longer our ally,” this situation must be more widely recognised.
In some ways the United States now is simply continuing its policy of rescuing Russia from its own funks.
Ukraine is the only obstacle. As it exhausts Russia’s army and continues, daily, to destroy every part of Russia’s manufacturing and fossil fuel infrastructure inside Russia, Ukraine has an opportunity to destroy the Russia state. It’s an opportunity which must not be missed.
5-6 sovereign states instead of the current so-called Russian Federation must be our endgame. America’s policy today - to save Russia- is an echo of Bush’s “chicken Kuiv” speech when he visited Kyiv to implore Ukraine to stay within the Soviet Union. Biden and Obama too did everything in their power to help Russia when it occupied Ukraine.
For example Ukraine was about to kill thousands of the retreating Russian troops from Kherson in September 2022. According to Bob Woodward’s reporting Biden prevented this because he was afraid of “WWIII.” …

Now that Ukraine is handing its A** to it, Russia has dialled all its assets up to 11.
All over Europe and America and Asia its bots, political agents, Disinfolklore streams are dialled to 11.
Time for Ukraine to drop the bridge.

The Steppe Heritage is Ukraines and Indo-European civilisations.
All the temporary so-called ‘Russia’ has brought is murder, flood, genocide and ecocide.
ALL living Indo-European languages emanate from Mykhailivka in Ancient Ukraine 5,800 years before ‘Russia’ was invented as an idea in Kyiv-Mohylo Academy in the 1690s, a century before ‘Russia’ unlawfully occupied right-bank Ukraine and ever delusional declared itself an Empire.
Russian Culture, remember, doesn’t excuse its 250,000 War Crimes in Ukraine. It motivates them. Even you by illustrating a lecture about so-called ‘Russia’ with a map of Ukraine come a part of this when you annihilate Ukraine.
When are we going to start saying the obvious? There's a genuine European spring happening between all the bad news and hybrid warfare.
Romania, Moldova, Ukraine, Serbia, Hungary and Belarus before that.
Everyone in Europe wants to be part of something we take for granted. Support them and start believing.

⚡️Why We Must Brand "Russian Nazis" As Nazis.
First, there is no tactic the German Nazis used which Russia isn't currently using in Ukraine:
Mass Murder;
Scapegoating;
Ruschist army unit "Wanger" was founded by a Nazi; it follows a Nazi ideology (it sacrifices to Odin, for example); and after killing hundreds of thousands of Syrians Wanger has murdered 100,000 Ukrainians, vaporised Popasna and Bakhmut;
Dehumanising those they intend to murder;
Vaporising whole cities;
Execution of elites;
Forced passportization;
Forcible transportation of children, and grown-ups;
Death camps (Oleneivka);
Working Ukrainians to death;
Starving Ukrainians to death;
Trying to starve Africa;
Forced military service of Ukrainians against their fellow Ukrainians;...
I could go on, but anyone who has been keeping the receipts (as I have been doing here in 25,000 tweets seen by 60m people since 24th Feb 2022) feel free to add in what I've missed.
Second, Russia uses the term "Nazi" to dehumanise every single person in the Western world (including Ukrainians).
This dehumanisation is a signature far-right Nazi tactic.
Slaughtering dehumanised "enemies" (who are completely innocent of any crime) is easier for Russian Nazis.
How do we fight against this?
By making baseless accusations against us of being Nazis, Russia reveals its fear:
Russia knows it's a Nazi state.
This is why it's trying to close off the possibility of using that nomenclature to characterise its shameful behaviour.
Russia hopes to make it impossible for us to use that moniker to brand Ruschists and their Nazi tactics "Ruschist Nazis."
This way it hopes to be considered Not As Bad As The Nazis, even though in Ukraine in the places it has occupied those who lived through the German Nazi occupation call the Ruschist occupation worse.
We must fight rhetorical fire with fire. Leaving Ruschia to dominate the linguistic battle space is precisely why we're in this mess. Instead of calling Ruschia out on its genocidal rhetoric since 2024, we ignored it.
Russia decouples labels (Nazis) from their meanings, when it accuses the western world of being what we are not.
We have vast empirical evidence that, since Feb 24th 2022, Russia has been practising at scale and as a matter of strategy Nazi tactics.
Russia is using the Nazi accusation as a tactic to dehumanise those it plans to murder, torture, deport, maim.
Therefore, Russia has opened itself up to being similarly accused, if actual evidence of Nazi tactics exists.
And it does in Ruschia's case, but not in ours.
Let's, then, reattach "Nazi" to its proper meaning: anyone who engages in Nazi tactics is a Nazi. All Ruschists are Nazis.
Empty accusations that the whole of Western world (including Ukraine) are Nazis aren't acceptable.
Nazi as a signifier must be attached to a harmonious meaning.
In our case, we aren't Nazis.
In Ruschia's case they are Nazis because they use Nazi tactics as they wage a war of aggression and genocide.
I understand that calling anyone a "Nazi" is a huge step.
As someone who visited Auschwitz I understand how disgusting the German Nazis were.
Yet, since Feb 24th 2022 we must face what our enemy - the z ruschist Nazi- has done, and what it plans to do to us.
It's 1939.
Every day Ruschist state TV and senior officials threaten nuclear attacks which are genocide against us.
So taking into account the last 510 days of data, we no longer speak of "THE" Nazis.
Today, we speak (in the past tense) of "German Nazis" and (in the present tense) of "Ruschist Nazis."
By labelling an Other as "Nazi" Ruschist Nazis, like Medvedyev, thought we wouldn't notice the Wanger Ruschist Nazis and Medvedyev and Putin's own worship of the Nazis.
We reclaim naming rights for Nazis, from Ruschist Nazis.
⚡️On Russian Nazi 'Death Camps' for Ukrainians.
Oleneivka, of course. Azov warriors murdered by a Russian Nazi Thermobaric bomb.
Now, Russian Nazi gulags.
It's 1939. The trajectory is quite clear, to those who care to understand.
It has been quite clear since February 20th 2022 when the US ambassador made these warnings:
"Specifically, we have credible information that indicates Russian forces are creating lists of identified Ukrainians to be killed or sent to camps following a military occupation."
Now we know that Russian Nazi Wanger forces executed the kill lists in Kyiv region, murdering the mayor of Mostyn, her husband, and their son just days before Russian Nazis were defeated in the Battle of Mostyn and retreated. As many who lived through the German Nazi occupations of their villages have attested the Russian Nazi occupations are much worse.
Meanwhile, the "comical" Disinfolklore characters of Medvedyev, et al distract with their nuclear trolls and Chef Apprentice vs. Magister Putin soap opera, and mythical Belarus camps for Wanger Nazis.
The killing continues. An 87 yo man injured in Orikhiv and a 40 yo man killed by a Russian Nazi Iskander missile this morning.
As Sebastian Haffner wrote in 1939:
"There are few things as comic as the calm, superior indifference with which I and those like me watched the beginnings of the Nazi revolution in Germany, as if from a box at the theater. It was, after all, a movement with the declared intention of doing away with us. Perhaps the only comparably comic thing is the way that now, years later, Europe is permitting itself exactly the same indifferent attitude, as though it were a superior, amused onlooker, while the Nazis are already setting it alight at all four corners.”

⚡️Revolutions in Paris, DC, Berlin: Turning, Then Righting
The hero needs a damsel. If there is no damsel in distress, well, no bother. You distress one. Then you ride in.
The movement I want to bring into our minds is turning, then the straightening. I am going to keep saying it.
Turning, then righting. I want to embed it, so that when our minds are being turned by someone, in real time, we recall this little mantra.
Turning, righting.
When you see a revolution on the streets of Paris, whether in 1789 or today, that is turning. And then comes the righting of the turning.
Think of a wheel. The wheel is turning, with a Tr- in it, the consonantal pair. When it stops turning, it is righted. You have a wheelwright who fixes it. The wheel was turning, then it was broken.
There is a riot, perhaps, or an insurrection. Then someone rights it. The wheelwright rights the wheel.
So you create the chaos, which is the turning. Then you purport to save it, to solve it, which is the righting.
The riot is the turning. The strong man who says I will lock every rioter up, or indeed the strong woman leader who says it, I will lock the far left up, that is the righting.
And because the hand that offers the righting was behind the turning, the righting is his to offer.
Think of a wheelwright who plants stones or nails on the road. Think of running a business that fixes tyres. You guarantee yourself plenty of custom by putting nails on the street.
The hand that offers the righting was behind the turning, and he is ready for it, because he planned it.
The oldest shape of the trick is the damsel in distress. France is in distress. Europe is in distress. russian Disinfolklorists love the motif, and I have written about it often.
The hero needs a damsel. If there is no damsel in distress, well, no bother. You distress one. Then you ride in.
America was great. You say it is not great. You convince people it is not great. In fact you make it ungreat. You degrade America. You distress America, and then you say you are going to save it.
There is an abhorrent cultural meme I have spoken about before, the men who call themselves pick-up artists. They nag their victims.
Your nose is a bit too big. Wow, I am surprised you ever had a girlfriend, because you are pretty ugly. Then they use that vulnerability to hook the person. That is the micro level.
On the macro level we are not used to this. We are not used to it in geopolitics. We are not used to it in politics. We are not used to people arranging riots like the January 6th insurrection and then riding in to supposedly fix it. We are not used to countries carpet bombing, let us say, Syria.
Imagine a country like russia, which was having problems in Ukraine in the summer of 2015. It decides to carpet bomb Syria, which it starts doing in September 2015. That provokes millions of migrants, because nobody wants to die. The migrants come into Europe. They cause political chaos. And the people who ride to the rescue are PiS in Poland and Orbán in Hungary. Germany had a lot of problems. Merkel invited them in, legalised a million migrants and more or less absorbed them.
Now we have the AfD, supported by russia, riding high in the polls.
You cause the distress, then you purport to solve it. You cause the distress, then you sponsor political movements like the National Rally, you offer them massive loans, and then you purport to solve it. The same trick in Reform. It is a routine.

Reading stories like this is so disheartening. It makes me realize that, decades later and despite everything that’s happened, the West still hasn’t learned a thing about Putin or Russia and remains so easily manipulated.
At one of the tensest points in Russia's invasion of Ukraine, two Americans teamed up with a former GDR spy to stop nuclear war. They just needed to tell Putin.

When you see a revolution on the streets of Paris, whether in 1789 or today, that is turning. And then comes the righting of the turning.
Think of a wheel. The wheel is turning, with a Tr- in it, the consonantal pair. When it stops turning, it is righted. You have a wheelwright who fixes it. The wheel was turning, then it was broken.
There is a riot, perhaps, or an insurrection. Then someone rights it. The wheelwright rights the wheel.
So you create the chaos, which is the turning. Then you purport to save it, to solve it, which is the righting.
The riot is the turning. The strong man who says I will lock every rioter up, or indeed the strong woman leader who says it, I will lock the far left up, that is the righting.
And because the hand that offers the righting was behind the turning, the righting is his to offer.
Think of a wheelwright who plants stones or nails on the road. Think of running a business that fixes tyres. You guarantee yourself plenty of custom by putting nails on the street.
The hand that offers the righting was behind the turning, and he is ready for it, because he planned it.
The oldest shape of the trick is the damsel in distress. France is in distress. Europe is in distress. russian Disinfolklorists love the motif, and I have written about it often.
The hero needs a damsel. If there is no damsel in distress, well, no bother. You distress one. Then you ride in.
America was great. You say it is not great. You convince people it is not great. In fact you make it ungreat. You degrade America. You distress America, and then you say you are going to save it.
There is an abhorrent cultural meme I have spoken about before, the men who call themselves pick-up artists. They nag their victims.
Your nose is a bit too big. Wow, I am surprised you ever had a girlfriend, because you are pretty ugly. Then they use that vulnerability to hook the person. That is the micro level.
On the macro level we are not used to this. We are not used to it in geopolitics. We are not used to it in politics. We are not used to people arranging riots like the January 6th insurrection and then riding in to supposedly fix it. We are not used to countries carpet bombing, let us say, Syria.
Imagine a country like russia, which was having problems in Ukraine in the summer of 2015. It decides to carpet bomb Syria, which it starts doing in September 2015. That provokes millions of migrants, because nobody wants to die. The migrants come into Europe. They cause political chaos. And the people who ride to the rescue are PiS in Poland and Orbán in Hungary. Germany had a lot of problems. Merkel invited them in, legalised a million migrants and more or less absorbed them.
Now we have the AfD, supported by russia, riding high in the polls.
You cause the distress, then you purport to solve it. You cause the distress, then you sponsor political movements like the National Rally, you offer them massive loans, and then you purport to solve it. The same trick in Reform. It is a routine.

Several missiles hit the factory, and the entire area is filled with smoke.
It's likely a repeat of the operation, similar to what happened in Orel
