“Many hoax tactics are designed in part to interrupt either the audience's or opponent's 'OODA' Loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act), to force opponents to orient their decision-making before they have observed and clearly understood the situation, make decisions based off reaction to feints and false positions, take actions not of their own choosing, etc. By interrupting the OODA loop process, Hoaxers can 'force' the other side to act in such a way that it perpetuates the hoax, or bypass rational thinking and consideration of alternative narratives by an audience.”
INFORMATION WARFARE: ANATOMY OF A HOAX
Compares Smollett, Covington, Kavanaugh, Spygate, and Ukraine hoaxes
-->Examples of each characteristic for ALL THESE HOAXES--
Sounds a lot like the George Floyd case that started massive riots, only this interrupted the loop of "allies". The fact that you can be a complete piece of human garbage and become the hero to so many is sickening and a sign of how vulnerable our society is to hoaxes these days.
I encourage you to consider the Floyd/BLM/Coronavirus situation against the characteristics listed in the linked article, disregarding ‘conspiracy theories’ and solely utilizing established facts (as well as evidence-weighted suspected, reported, & unconfirmed factual events, as opposed to projections of motivations).
The best way to go about it is to review the characteristics, and then put together a timeline of events, drawing out ‘key events’ by referencing them against potential fulfillment of hoax characteristics. As you continue to add events, a pattern emerges, and the hidden connections and motivations emerge.
One big question that is unresolved (and to this date, unresolvable), is the degree to which the arrest interaction was spontaneous. Although it has been presented as such in the MSM, there are many suspicious ‘coincidences’ and external factors that have started to pile up in front of that limiting assumption.
This is an interesting take, but in a true OODA loop, all phases essentially happen simultaneously and receive progressive updates. When you are not open to or able to receive progressive updates, you are forced into a serial pattern, and that's when you see it become much easier to break into someone's loop.
Check out the link - the explanation as written is drastically simplified in order to use it briefly as one entry framework of understanding for discussing the hoax characteristics (mostly to introduce a concept that differentiates a hoax strategy from a simple attempt to lie, in that a given hoax tactic isn’t trying to get you to believe something necessarily, but to provoke a reaction to set up a different purpose.)
While you are correct, your explanation requires several more layers of nuance and disclaimers, and can easily be completely misinterpreted.
Appreciate the response — whut, you didn’t think the article was long enough already?!
You are absolutely right - everyone should check out the link. It is a fantastic post that clearly lays out some very complex concepts. Shades of Jomini, which previously I would have thought were beyond their capabilities.
