#Microtargetting
@Hex

Agree, altho Facebook has been accused of microtargetting individual users with political content and the EU has gone as far as to ban political advertising on FB outright....but 'My nan's on Facebook, otherwise I'd never use it'.

People have a choice and still choose to engage.

In that documentary, it's all about the gym, meditating and even withholding semen, testosterone and channeling anger into specific areas of the far-right's machine.

We may also call this, microtargetting or an iteration of it.

The dark side of wellness: the overlap between spiritual thinking and far-right conspiracies
Extreme right-wing views and the wellness community are not an obvious pairing, but ‘conspirituality’ is increasingly pervasive. How did it all become so toxic? By Eva Wiseman

Holly Valance is the perfect example there, a familiar face can grant a lie the ability to become the new truth and often without examination of that they output. It becomes a sort of psuedo-cult within a larger movement, a form of microtargetting, just in material form.

Yes! It’s a trap to label them all racist. People are drawn into the alt “reality” of the RW, using aggregated data & microtargetting, based on emotional appeal. Some are absolutely racist while others aren’t even shown the racist stuff, being sorted algorithmically into echo chambers. It’s poison.

Yeah it cooks the brains of old dems toward complacency just as surely as it radicalizes rs. The magic of microtargetting. Someone needs to conduct a study of the feeds of prominent dems on x...

Yes,but parents aren't all Super(wo)man, or fighting for survival or believe the BS themselves. Éven after 16-20 also no real pushback to what was clearly not happening in the dark or suddenly. Microtargetting infeastructure. Bipartisan + media guarded the status quo + nobody was held accountable.

This is an insane lack of digital literacy. This is an insane lack of critical thinking.

We have adversaries that do not like us. They can push stuff towards targets via microtargetting.

We have political factions and subcultures with similar capabilities.

PR firms too.

You really need to listen to this.
It explains why some of our loved ones inexplicably wanted what Drumpf was selling. Microtargetting of messaging is a great evil.

No one wants to live in a mafia state, but here we are.
Some of my testimony to European Parliament about my assessment of the organized crime syndicate (mafia state) problem and how they collaborate across borders to degrade democracy, leveraging social media, perceived grievance, and crypto-meme markets.

They're chasing a median voter. Farage et al are microtargetting.

Humans cannot handle the power of microtargetting, alnor can they handle the power of curating their existence. America especially has a rather virulent strain of main character energy and a good majority of our problems track back to digital rugged individualism.

They want these ideas into the minds of the young as quickly as they can. So they're firing on all cylinders to achieve a change in the collective state of mind, crushing community spirit and replacing it with selfish individualism, which also assists when microtargetting. They seek a permanent hold

Misinformation (+microtargetting) is a hell of a drug.

Tbf their campaign to get Libs to put Greens last, definitely worked better than their plan to drop the greens vote 4%, by microtargetting Greens voters with messages about how they're anti-capitalist and anti-Judeo-Christian.
May 9, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Yes, the greens lower house losses are large due to their campaign aimed at getting Libs to preference Greens last. Which worked a lot better than their microtargetting campaign to sway Greens voters and reduce primary vote by 4%

it's not like you can neglect either, as well, so my suggestion to the labels would be, stop microtargetting women. I know you think they're the only ones that will cough up money on like Justin Beiber like screeching teenage grrls all shut up and take my money but, you could have men

microtargetting?
April 16, 2025 at 12:52 PM
y'know I'm not so sure the wealthy dem donors are pushing for this. It's getting harder and harder for me not to begin some microtargetting campaigns
this is exactly what Ds should be doing here. good on Van Hollen. I hope other Ds (like, all of them) join him in this.
Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele
To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return

"If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

It's microtargetting by cohort, when propaganda polly here was bigging up the anti-muslim travel ban and the rest, that was coming from the self-same Alt-right/media nexus that were also creating the Trump cult and Seeding Qanon BS.

"satan worshipping paedophiles" and all the rest of it.

Yes, his domestic policy was socially pretty centrist-conservative but fiscally microtargetting certain places very liberally

Why our governments are still unable to prevent this electoral scam is beyond me. Thanks to @carolecadwalla.bsky.social we've been alerted to this microtargetting of the electorate since 2017, so it's no surprise to see this now. But it does make a mockery of the democratic process. Massively so.

I challenge the data #scientists & analysts, microtargetting specialists, social media engineers, #SEO/SEM experts, #CRM arcitects, #NLP engineers, #cybersecurity & #cryptography engineers, #pentesters & #ethical #hackers, digital #forensics #specialists and many more fields to connect plan and act.

This is false.
Twitter has facilitated the hate as well as the haters, and will continu to do so.
It has divided people into bubbles.
It has allowed the extremists to lead that.
It has been a source of intel on people, as to what makes them tick.
That allows for microtargetting with fakenews etc.

Twitter is not widely used here. Why bother?

Tesla Cybertrucks never made it through our safety standards, they're forbidden, even as exotic cars.

Elon has no power here. But he's good for activists to make fun of.
