Writer Walter Kirn: ‘Everything That Happens Before the Election is a Psyop’ (VIDEO)

Author Walter Kirn suggests that all events occurring before an election, including polls, rumors, and social media trends, are part of a psychological operation (psyop). He argues that these elements are instrumental in shaping public perception and behavior, rather than reflecting truth. Kirn advises readers to question what these narratives are trying to achieve rather than their veracity, emphasizing the importance of voter turnout for Republicans and independents.

• Walter Kirn, author of ‘Up in the Air’, believes pre-election events are a psychological operation (psyop).
• He asserts that polls, rumors, social media, and anecdotes are subordinate to the election and not true in themselves.
• Kirn distrusts polls, seeing them as tools for manipulation by those who can pay for them.
• He states that news is now focused on behavior modification, not truth.
• Kirn advises voters to ask what pre-election narratives are trying to get them to do, not if they are true.
• He uses a Michigan Senate odds example from Kalshi Politics to illustrate his point.
• Republicans and independents are urged to ignore the ‘noise’ and focus on voting and turnout.
