This is some fucking Russia in Crimea level pretexting. Just completely insane.

Recognize the manipulation tactics used against YOU!

PRETEXTING: Trump's favorite manipulation technique!

Ask MS Copilot: Describe "pretexting", a psychological tactic for manipulation: Provide an excuse, ANY EXCUSE, for what you want to do!

They’re gonna try to claim that any BDS advocacy “supports Hamas”, then any speech critcising Israel as “supports Hamas”, then advocating for Palestinians to have life, liberty, dignity, autonomy, etc “supports Hamas”, & will be classed as “material support” of an FTO, pretexting deporting citizens

It is called 'pretexting' they are setting the stage

This is just one example of the PRETEXTING tactic for manipulation.
EXCUSE: "we must control illegal drugs entering the US"!

FACT: Tariffs have no impact on illegal drugs since drug traffickers do not pay tariffs on their illegal drugs.

Pretexting! Where Black drug dealers thought that they just got unlucky by randomly being pulled over by local cops while transporting drugs.

In fact: cops used Patriot Act to warrantless search their communications. Then cops pretended to luckily happen across the drug dealers! What constitution!🤡

Fucking love Sam, pointing out that language pretexting is needed to unwind all that unconscious bias the media is programmed to push is needed, and it opens up all the other misnomers that get shoved down our throats

So the Minority Report police are here now.

I love it when someone online takes an unhealthy interest into my finances. Can we say, pretexting for a scam?

Social engineering is the psychological manipulation of individuals to gain confidential information or access. It often involves tactics like phishing, pretexting, or baiting to exploit human trust. #SocialEngineering

#Pretexting is a thing, and #WindTre (too bad) knows it now.

The worst part? Yet to come.
My #PacketHunters for Baited.io, quite technical and worthy - not for #piangina.

What the influencers did is called pretexting. They spread fake stories to set up a scam. Just like phishing emails do when you are told to click a link to change your password or claim a prize. The email usually includes a convincing story.

Pretexting their future crimes by accusing Democrats has been a very successful information warfare strategy for the GOP.

The goal isn't to hack the software, but to hack the human trust that makes a business function. #cybersecuritystrategy #incidentresponse #socialengineering #pretexting #securityawareness #cybersecurity 2/2

Please read and share. Trump campained with making the war to Mexican cartels and even imposed stronger tariffs on both Mexico and Canada after pretexting it was in response to drug trafficking.
Hypocrisy and cynicism are his marks.
