A post shared by Daizy Gedeon (@daizygedeon)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In a new report for Double Down News, Lowkey exposes the multi-front campaign deployed against New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.<\/p>\n

Here is how the operation breaks down:
\n\u201cEvery bot scrubbed, every server shut down in panic, and every intelligence network exposed proves one crucial truth: the architects of this machine are scared.\u201d<\/p>\n

France\u2019s digital watchdog agency (VIGINUM) formally unmasked an international covert influence operation run by Israeli firm Black Core, deploying thousands of deepfakes, bot accounts, and smear campaigns to manipulate the election narrative.<\/p>\n

Black Core\u2019s cyber infrastructure traced directly back to Tel Aviv firm Galacticos and veteran operatives from Israel\u2019s elite cyber intelligence unit.<\/p>\n

Within two hours of journalists confronting company executives on the phone, their entire web footprint, LinkedIn pages, and servers were scrubbed from the internet.<\/p>\n

On day one, Mamdani revoked IHRA anti-criticism definitions, called for ICC arrest warrants against Netanyahu, and targeted $60M+ in tax-exempt NY funds flowing to illegal West Bank settlements.<\/p>\n

When foreign state actors and private cyber contractors panic and scrub their servers, it proves one thing: they are terrified of democratic momentum.<\/p>\n
