Quote:Summary

The US gov't produced a cat-themed “disinformation” video game to “inoculate” young people against populist news content.

The game aspires to create a “psychological vaccination against fake news” in those surfing social media.

The US and UK gov'ts plan to embed the game in local schools and educational curricula around the world, especially “ahead of elections.”

“With the Internet, only two things are certain: the global appeal of cat videos and the pervasiveness of disinformation.”

So begins a government memorandum recently circulated by the US State Department's Global Engagement Center (GEC) titled: “Cat Park – A New Online Game to Inoculate Youth Against Disinformation,” recently obtained by America First Legal and reviewed by Foundation for Freedom Online.

The memo, dated Oct. 31, 2022, details a government plan to roll out a new taxpayer-funded online game called Cat Park. The game is billed as a product that “inoculates players against real world disinformation by showing how sensational headlines, memes, and manipulated media can be used to advance conspiracy theories and incite real-world violence.”

However, there is more going on here than a simple cat-themed video game.

As this report will explain, the GEC appears to be using taxpayer dollars to fund “behavioral modification” propaganda games intended to make young people around the world view populist content online as being de facto “disinformation.”

To understand the full story, we will explore the Cat Park game itself, break down the GEC memo, and then reveal the bigger picture of where this all came from and what's behind it.

Cat Park: 'Vaccinating' Young People Against Distrust In The Government

Aimed at young people aged 15 years and up, Cat Park purports to be a “noir adventure” where a player takes on “the role of a disinformation agent recruited into a shadowy social media pressure campaign.”

In the game's plot, the player assumes the role of a social media user who makes memes and news headlines to energize local citizens to stop the construction of a local park for cats (hence, Cat Park). Then, the player, realizing they have been spreading disinformation, must repent for their memes that resulted in the park getting canceled.

The major crux of plot tension in the game is the concern that the cat park being built by the city's mayor ostensibly only serves the city's upper-income residents. Thus, populist resentment lurks within the lower-income strata at the city who believe their own needs are being neglected by government officials.

Thus, as a “disinformation” purveyor, the player represents the “anti-park” movement, and begins the game by generating grievances against the park's construction.

The new Global Engagement Center (GEC), established by presidential executive order and located at the DoS, focuses on third-party validators or influencers from the bottom up, whereas MISO [Military Information Support Operations, formerly known as “psyops”] within DoD remains more focused on government top-down communications.

The GEC was first founded and overseen in 2016 by then-State Department Under Secretary for Public Affairs Richard Stengel. Stengel described his job at GEC as being the US government's “chief propagandist.”

From your link:

"...While serving in the U.S. Intelligence Community, Ms. Gabrielle was a CIA-trained Human Intelligence
Operations Officer, assigned to the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). She directed and conducted global
clandestine strategic intelligence collection operations..."

What the hell does that mean to an average reader of her webpage?!!

I mean, would such a vague explanation allay anyone's assumption that she deals within the shadows of
information manipulation, when the earlier statements say that she was also paid in the public-sector as
a national television news correspondent and anchor?!

Which skill did she use in the media world...? Was there -at any time, a cross-over of her training to
suit the television company or the CIA? In the news-business world, where did her loyalties lie?!!

The GEC was authorized by Executive Order 13721, signed by Barack Obama in March 2016. It was funded by Congress in Fiscal Year 2017, which began October 1st of that year. Q larper first appeared on October 27, 2017.  We now have an agency, a funding mechanism and creation date, and a Mission and Vision statement that all coincide with the appearance of Q.

We now have at least two factions, or Players - the Globalists and the Nationalists. They each have entrenched ideologies that are mutually exclusive. They are both using weaponized information, with Player One using the so-called Main Stream Media and censored social media, while the other is using Q (who BTW is still posting) and possibly other similar weapons we have come across in the past few years as are some I'm sure we are yet unaware of.

Meanwhile, how many 'former' CIA officers & agents have been and are now in congress, msm networks, Bezos' Amazon operations, private aerospace to black-hat wolf pack of UFO/UAP disclosure. The counter-intel gatekeepers have allegiance to no flag.

Truly...the greatest psyop(s) of all time is underway. High weirdness times.
