I discuss the Revolver article posted on American Partisan from October detailing the social media mapping programs that are up and running now, originally designed to map insurgencies and managed by retired General and Biden supporter, Stanley McChrystal.

    need to move on past the social media and burner phone talk. Lets learn something else now. We get it you dont like either. Good now move on.

    • wwes December 1, 2020 at 11:59

      Some of us are actually getting something out of this, not to mention that social media and phones are two of the major ways that people compromise themselves, as well as waste tremendous amounts of their time.
      There are plenty of sites that talk about all kinds of other things, if you’re not liking what’s on this one you don’t have to read it, or you could always start your own. Hell, some of us try to help support this site because we like it just like it is.

      • NC Scout December 1, 2020 at 12:11

        People like him hold on to bad practices because they’d rather feel good about themselves than do anything real.

        • wwes December 1, 2020 at 15:28

          I know I personally have bad practices, like everyone else, and a hell of a lot to learn, which is one of the big reasons I read all of these articles and listen to Radio Contra, along with a few other sites out there. There are a lot of us that appreciate the information you and the rest of the crew at AP put out.
          And it just rubs me the wrong way for someone to spout off about what someone else should be doing on their site. We already get an overload of that without adding to it.

          • NC Scout December 1, 2020 at 16:05

            Eh, it is what it is. Most are here to learn, some are here for validation, and others…well, they just are.

            The guy may or may not learn the heard way. I said it explicitly- the facts are what they are, they can take it or leave it. But as everyone who’s been the hunter knows, and a few have commented on it here, I didn’t pull this information out of my ass. The Patriot community is in for quite a shock the day things go live. And a Biden presidency would put all the people chomping at the bit to crush the opposition right back where they can do it. They would not invest so heavily in these tools if they didn’t have a purpose.

      Hey cope, don’t like what I’m saying? Don’t listen to it. Last time I checked I didn’t take orders from you.

      • SOG December 1, 2020 at 12:20

        Damn Right!, i listen in and got some gouge,tested my ESD bags and confirmed they stopped signals from phone.

        also scout is answering email asking again about SM and Cell phone, he is being responsive to the readers and listeners.

        being in an EW unit i can confirm you open that flip phone or PTT walkie on a mountain they can find you,call in the fast movers and poof there goes your cave.

      Cope, I had a conversation with a boomer who was convinced if he didn’t order anything from the internet concerning guns he was safe from the Communists in our government.

      I had this conversation with him in the local gun shop. He had his phone in his pocket.
      His phone had GPS tracking his location at the gun shop.
      His phone was listening to keywords.
      His phone had background apps running god knows what.
      His phone colocated to our phones.
      He paid with his card…

      He also argued with me the whole time about exactly how this works based on what I have been told by Scout and Others.
      You should learn from our experiences, many of us have learned these mistakes the VERY hard way. Like myself.
      Or others, like Scout, who used to teach the enemy the hard way using these same tools.

      You only get ONE chance. There is no action packed car chase getaway, or a bug out into the woods scenario that wins the day.

      When we finally go dark, they cannot predict the social climate.
      Apple buys data from Microsoft who buys data from Facebook who reports to the credit card companies who report to the banks.
      And round and round it goes, in any order, they fill in the gaps and use predictive analytics.
      You cut them out or you are feeding the beast.

      It’s that simple or you are gonna eat a hellfire missile for breakfast at 4AM.
      The U.S.G. has LOTS of Hellfire missiles buddy.
      We even have guided Hydras now!
      Much cheaper and less collateral damage.

      Youtube has all the gun videos, and endless reviews of worthless crap no one needs or uses IRL.

      We shoot for precision here with whatever you have. No prejudice.
      And our primary goal is Comms, Comms, and more Comms.
      And the occasional cooking recipe by Jmac.

      Stop transmitting your data to the enemy.
      Listen to the experts and professionals.

        That’s funny right there.
        Everyone wants to do James Bond and Jason Bourne stuff.
        Until it’s time to do James Bond and Jason Bourne stuff.
        Eventually we’ll learn I suppose.

      People forget or never knew that we don’t need Youtwitface to communicate. The patriot movement did quite well before the infernal net or cell phones. We had our own print media, snail mail, shortwave broadcasts and amateur radio. “Social media” was a CB. Old school worked then and it still works today.

      • NC Scout December 1, 2020 at 22:23

        Yup.

      • wwes December 1, 2020 at 22:44

        Cutting off the social media is one of the best things I ever did, and the wife says the same thing.
        Getting on the 2m radio and talking, or just listening, is much more fun than social media anyway. I wish there was more activity around here. I hope to branch into HF eventually.
        Do you get much CB traffic? I could probably use a better antenna, but with a dipole maybe 25-30 feet in the air I rarely pick anything up on CB.

        • ConSigCor December 2, 2020 at 12:07

          WWES, a 5/8 vertical will work much better than a dipole on 11 meters. Another reason you may not hear much is because most of the hash and trash has moved to fakebook. Now that 11 is seeing less use, sideband will work very well for a local network.

          • wwes December 7, 2020 at 10:22

            Thanks for the tips, I’ll have to look into putting up a 5/8 vertical and see if I can pick up a little more.

    Wanna see something depressing?

    Could you imagine letting an antenna like this fall into such disrepair?
    Talk about a dying empire…
    We used to be cool.

    • wwes December 1, 2020 at 22:40

      JP, it might be my browser, but for some reason your links won’t load. What antenna are you referencing? I’d like to look it up is why I ask

    You referenced the Arab Spring and specifically the use of social media in finding those who instigated and propagated it. Some good filler for your podcast could be had by telling some of those stories.
