what even is a psyoppp
Psychological operations (PSYOPs) are military operations to convey selected information and indicators to audiences to influence their motives and objective reasoning, and ultimately the behavior of governments, organizations, groups, and large foreign powers. (From Wikipedia)
So basically propaganda I guess. Gotta be one of the most Murican things I’ve read in a long time…
You would do well for yourself and your loved ones to recognize how prevalent this sort of thing is in the world. It’s not just an American thing. Not by a long shot.
Yeah, like we had RCMP Miku here in Canada which I both adore and hate. Miku would never though
I must remain strong.
Yeah, I know, I’m talking about the way it’s written. This name and its description really give off US-military/CIA operation vibes to me.
It obviously exists elsewhere as well, but the name psyop can only come from the USA.
Ohhhh, yeah, the description is super American-centric. My bad on the misunderstanding.
Propaganda tends to refer to either the material itself or systematic distribution of it. Psyops refers to the overarching military operations that employ propaganda, and also refers to the way that the material is disseminated (e.g. planting people in organizations to stir trouble, leaflet-ing, social media bot campaigns, false flag campaigns like bombing something and blaming it on someone else, etc).
If this account isn’t a psyop, it’s a military fetishist weeb, which is arguably more pathetic.
That’s just a self-perpetuating psyop
Village People be like
it’s true I enlisted in the navy and they had anime girls on the ship. unfortunately we were hit with a torpedo and the anime girls died, but the boss said they’ll pick up more at the next port
source: i am not a psyop
What the fuck is a psyop??? Suddenly everyone has started using this word.
Look it up. It’s probably mostly being misused now though.
Psychological operation. For example making your enemy think you attack here, but in reality you will be attacking over there.
I don’t know if Admiral is meaning to say propaganda or how psyop fits at all. Maybe she’s slandering navies in other posts?
Psyop meaning propaganda. Psyops aren’t solely against enemy combatants, but also can be against your own populace (a different sort of enemy to certain people).
Making a lovable internet character to slip the idea into people’s minds that joining the military is a good thing would be an example of a home-focused propaganda psyop.
