There’s one thing they can’t understand. Decent and reasonable people don’t believe them. And even worse. Everything they do – is remembered, everything they write or speak – is checked. All this is easy nowadays. But they are persistent. What’s it all about. The “special operation” of the Macedonian rashists is taking place on the social networks.
From “naïve” comments with questions like “but the West”, “why for them, and where are we?”, “and why don’t you write for…?” (should I write about astrophysics?), and all the way up to explicit hate speech, their “operation” is ever more “expanded and upgraded” in line with the Russian aggression against Ukraine and the entire democratic world.
Some of the posts or comments try to be creative as well, but apart from spreading greasy lies, nothing else succeeds for them. For example, in one tweet a statement is totally made-up with an allusion of a specific event, and later that statement is falsely attributed to me. The tweet also has a photo of me attached to it in order for their manipulation to seem as much as possible convincing. The second part of their little rashist “exercise” consists of sharing comments with insults and hate speech. Classic!
Among the comments are also those that challenge truth-o-meters to check the fabricated “statement”. I am convinced that the tweet will be subject to processing by monitoring teams, whether of Civil or some other organization. But it’s good to know that their stupid tweets are just part of a small, microscopic part of the “special operation” of the rashists.
The posts on the social networks are just a good illustration of the disinformation and propaganda campaigns that the public has been facing over the past ten, and even more years. The campaign against mean has lasted even longer, I would say, from the very beginning of Civil’s existence (founded in 1999). It must be known that the real target are the values that we represent. They are bothered by the ideas and efforts for freedom, democracy, peace and respect for human rights.
Disinformation has the purpose to divert attention, to cover up someone’s criminal or immoral action, or to instill fear and divisions among people, or to cause instability and violence.
By attacking, intimidating and discrediting individuals, they are trying to discredit the democratic institutions and hinder the key processes with which public, local and national interests are achieved. That’s their real goal. Therefore, I decided long ago to follow the work of the heads of those “special operations”, and not the propaganda infantry on the social networks. Only when necessary, I deal with quasi-journalists and quasi-intellectuals who are just gear-wheels in that machinery.
For years, and even decades, they have been initiating entire television, and before also court-police “operations” against me and the organization in which I work. The social networks were just a start and accompanying element of those “Operations” that entire political parties run. Against who? Against people who speak the truth and who mean well for Macedonia.
The poor things, they so want to be witty, but this usually comes down to unsuccessful attempts or pure theft of copyright work, poorly processed in order to serve their dirty goals. The “operations” of the rashists on the social networks include fake profiles, behind which I know for certain are even officials of a (still) large and rich and of a smaller political party. The smaller party doesn’t’ have that much money to throw around, because their snot (little leader) still wants to get rich from the citizen’s money. But that’s why they are more shrieking and more dirty than their big, greasy political sister. The media under their control are always involved in the “operations”.
Why am I calling them by a new name of rashists? Because it’s about structures who carry on their backs the Russian propaganda in our country, whose easiest goal are the progressive people who don’t allow themselves to fall to their level. And they are nervous, as is the main and biggest criminal who sits alone on a 30-meter long white table with ornate details in the same color. They can’t come to terms with the defeat of their propaganda, because they received a public response that is strong and supported by facts.
The propaganda of the rashists in recent years, and especially in recent months, mostly consists of an attempt to justify the horrific war crimes that the Russian army and paramilitary are conducting in Ukraine. Why? Because they are part of the same deceiving criminal-dictatorial matrix. The agenda is known. To take hold of as much as possible influence, to create a political crisis and destabilization.
That’s why I call them by their new name – rashists, even though it’s about the same characters, whose moral constitution cannot be described in any other way, but with the ugliest of words. There, they are the holders of the “special operation” against the Macedonian national interests and carry out dirty propaganda against individuals, groups and institutions.
Lack of culture, ignorance, vulgarity and hatred are the main features of their propaganda activities. However, most of all, fear is seen in their propaganda. Fear that they will be exposed, fear that they may lose their positions, money and power, fear that they will not succeed to gain even more money and power. Shame? That is something they don’t have.
