Bolton paid Cambridge Analytica to make Facebook users more favorable to war
These people really do behave like characters from a third-rate movie script that gets rejected for being too over-the-top.At the point where you're actually hiring consultants for a PR campaign to improve the public image of war, should you not be thinking: how far have I strayed from the pack?I could totally see a misguided yet defensible attempt to convince the public of some specific war you really like, such as Iraq. But just any war, generically?(That's not to mention that no amount of psychological profiling could ever make a dent in the public's attitude towards war with the budget John Bolton could muster. Those facebook ads are, after all, competing with quite a few high-profile war movies every year, not to mention history books and grandparent's stories)
