Dr. Jim Ellsworth
@EINS_Institute@infosec.exchange
I'm a retired, General Officer level U.S. Army Intelligence leader who's been in INFOSEC since the 1980s, when it was mostly mainframes & Novell. Certifications came after, when I was off leading in the PSYOP / counternarrative side of IO, so I don't have any & cannot claim to be any sort of technical expert--but I can still (in sha' Allah) talk intelligently with folks who ARE technical experts & help connect such discourse to strategic outcomes. I'm also coming onboard as Associate Director of an academic Global & National Security Policy Institute, a Twitter refugee sold on the fediverse as the most resilient architecture to avoid getting co-opted by billionaires or governments, an observant Muslim & aspiring alim, and a senior EDUCATIONAL Technology scholar. As I said in my old Twitter bio, "Yep--weird." :-D

"Progressives hope momentum by Dr. Abdul El-Sayed will give them a signature victory. Centrists warn that picking him will backfire in November."
Kinda seems like thats what "centrists" told us right before their wonderful centrist candidates LOST to #AgolfShitler and his stooges in Congress two years ago....
Screw 'em. Nominate a candidate WHO WILL ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING for 'We, the People' instead of our #AmericanOligarchs.
