[quote=Anonymous]I find this analysis on how Nick Shapiro PR works really interesting…

Flooding and fatigue Flooding subs with low-value, off-topic, or confusing posts to dull engagement. "Flood the zone with shit" in Steve Bannon's words - a tactic with roots in Putin's propaganda.

Narrative seeding Throwaway accounts posing as "just asking questions" plant doubts or push provocative implications. Even if disproven later, the initial doubt often lingers; that said, in these subs, the tactic seems to be backfiring - users are pushing back with facts and clarity.

Disarming with agreement Watch for posters who frequently say "I agree" or mirror your language before slipping in subtle counterpoints or reframing key issues. This is a known tactic from negotiation strategy (eg Chris Voss) used to lower resistance and make opposing viewpoints seem more
palatable or trustworthy.

Sockpuppeting/fake accounts Multiple accounts simulating organic support for Blake, or infiltrating with "Justin fans" who behave irrationally or toxically, to make the movement look cult-like or unserious.

Divide and discredit Seeding debates (eg Amber Heard comparisons?) to pit us against each other. The aim is to shift focus away
from what matters and create mistrust.

Reframing the story (gaslighting) Seen especially in wider pop culture subs: "They're both toxic", "We'll never know what really happened" and "We shouldn't take sides without facts". These narratives seem neutral but quietly erode support and
clarity.[/quote]
