Microsoft analysts declared that it was posted by an account suspected of a Chinese influence operation. The analyst warned that “this relatively high-quality visual content has already drawn higher levels of engagement from authentic social media users.”

Moreover, the new images are believed to be more eye-catching, and real US voters are reposting them even if they have “common indicators of AI generation.” If you’re wondering what kind of indicators that could be, well, we’re talking about more than five fingers on a hand. More than that, it’s much harder to tell now that these accounts aren’t real.

Now, we deal with more sophisticated accounts operated by real people who employ fictitious or even stolen identities. We can easily say that they reached a whole other level. Of course, there are telltale signs. For instance, many of these operatives would start posting in Mandarin and then switch to another language, as the threat center explained.

  1. If these AMERICANS ARE SO IGNORANT TO BELIEVE CHINESE INTERFERES INTO OUR SOCIETY THERE IS NO HELP!
    I AM 76 YEARS OLD AND HAVE LIVED THRU VIETNAM, NIXON, AND NOW TRUMP IT HAS BEEN A ROUGH GO!
    NOW THESE REPUBLICANS ARE CHINESE LOVERS, OR SOUTH KOREA LOVERS, ETC.
    IF THESE PEOPLE ARE SO IGNORANT THEY BELIEVE LIES THERE IS NO HELP FOR THEM!

  2. I am alarmed by articles such as this about the Chinese Communist Party’s effort to divide this country by distributing propaganda or misleading information (is there a difference?) that if read or heard in or of itself, causes dissension among the populace. The subject matter is not limited to gun violence given as an example in the article – it may also be about mundane things such as the ever-growing polls that elevate the popularity of the 45th POTUS to a point high above what any other campaign challenger can even dream of reaching. Deception aimed at the less well-informed citizens of the USA may be extremely beneficial to foreign powers.

  3. Do what I do, stay away from all political news and then just vote for the Republican of your choice but vote. Ha ha ha. An old line from a 1960 JFK First Family comedy album that said “Vote for the Kennedy of your choice but vote. “

  4. China has a big problem because it’s population is decreasing. There is nothing they can do to change that so they engage in cover-up. Any country with decreasing population will not be around for long.

  5. You could have, at the bare minimum, shown us at least one way the Chinese were doing it. Or is this part of their evil plot?

  6. Voting in America is really a hoax. The Party in power enjoys the illusion that they were elected by a democratic process but it’s all an illusion created by the founders of the country to attempt to satisfy the general uneducated populace.
