Good article looking at how the internet is being used to support influence and propaganda, with a good helping of George Lakoff (and the theory of frames and metaphors) and a typology of modern media manipulation. None of which, at heart, is new. "What’s changed, of course, is the internet, and the many new ways it
creates for falsehoods to reach us. The power of populism today lies in
its ability to combine 20th-century propaganda techniques with
21st-century technology, putting propaganda on steroids."
