|content=I try to keep an open mind w/ those who disagree w/ me. But any chance I get to shed followers w/ incurable hate in their hearts is welcome.

|content=I periodically intentionally shed clusters of followers to avoid what I years ago termed '''ā€œAudience Captureā€''' by tweeting fair points that I know unreasonable people will not abide. Whoever is left is usually fair minded.
Ā 
Iā€™m now worried Iā€™m losing followers due to a purge though.

|content=True. But always *actively* try to lose your weak followers. '''ā€œAudience Captureā€''' is a killer.
Ā 
ā€œUnfollowed!ā€ can often be your favorite Tweet. We all have our stupid phases &amp; disagreements, and you donā€™t want those who punk on you if their needs arenā€™t continuously met/flattered.

|content=The best way to get followers is to not care about losing followers.

|content=Why? Because targeted manipulated feedback creates its own reality. It may start off as bullshit, but it becomes real via [[Kayfabrication]]. Oddly I covered this years ago! Just didnā€™t see it as a big threat so didnā€™t break it out.
Ā 
A huge blunder on my part:

|content=You may be undervaluing how devious it can be. Indulge me.
Ā 
You can ensure, for example; that ideological critics see 100%. They then ridicule the idea of censorship because they do in fact see all tweets!
Ā 
When I pushed '''ā€œAudienceCaptureā€''' I erred. '''ā€œFeedbackCaptureā€''' is the issue.

Ā 
I never see Maajids tweets unless I look for them. The censorship has been in your face obvious!

|content='''Audience Capture''' is merely a specific case of the more general concept of '''Feedback Capture'''. A platform can confuse &amp; gaslight a target. Or a dedicated harassment community can repeatedly paint a target on an individual. Or you can hire a farm of bots to confuse a target/audience.

|content=Conversely, '''Feedback Capture''' works to target an audience of an individual who sees the same FUD vocabulary used repeatedly using the previously strategies. The point is that you use black box algos, anonymous accounts, perseveration, FUD, to manipulate BOTH individual &amp; audience.

|content=This is basically the idea of [[Iago Media|Iago]] from Othello. When I have warned you always to ā€œlook for Iagoā€, the underlying concept is '''Feedback Capture'''. Othello actually becomes a different human via alienation of affections. Is Othello a good person? Hard to say. He is Iago-programmed.

|content=Lastly this can easily be done in a surgical/bespoke fashion. Friends no longer know when a friend is in trouble. Or 10,000 accounts may find the exact same obvious misinterpretation. With '''Feedback capture''' you never know what is happening. Itā€™s one of the biggest threats today.
