  In Stories Are Weapons, Annalee Newitz traces the way disinformation, propaganda, and violent threats have evolved from military weapons deployed against foreign adversaries into tools in domestic culture wars. Newitz delves into America's deep-rooted history with psychological operations, beginning with Benjamin Franklin's Revolutionary War–era fake newspaper and nineteenth-century wars on Indigenous nations, and reaching its apotheosis with the Cold War and twenty-first-century influence campaigns online. America's secret weapon has long been coercive storytelling. And there's a reason for that: operatives who shaped modern psychological warfare drew on their experiences as science fiction writers and in the advertising industry. 
   
   
   
  Now, through a weapons-transfer program long unacknowledged, psyops have found their way into the hands of culture warriors, transforming democratic debates into toxic wars over American identity. Newitz zeroes in on conflicts over race and intelligence, school board fights over LGBT students, and campaigns against feminist viewpoints, revealing how, in each case, specific groups of Americans are singled out and treated as enemies of the state. Crucially, Newitz delivers a powerful counternarrative, speaking with the researchers and activists who are outlining a pathway to achieving psychological disarmament and cultural peace.

  Charisma is one of the most powerful tools of influence. Throughout history, charismatic individuals have captivated audiences, inspired movements, and shaped the course of events. Whether in politics, business, entertainment, or everyday life, people with magnetic personalities often seem to have an almost hypnotic effect on others. But what exactly gives someone charisma, and why is it so effective? 
  At its core, charisma is a blend of confidence, charm, and emotional intelligence. It is not just about good looks or eloquent speech, though those can play a role. Instead, true charisma lies in the ability to make others feel special, understood, and valued. Charismatic individuals have an innate or developed talent for reading people and adjusting their approach accordingly. They know when to listen, when to speak, and how to convey messages in ways that resonate deeply with their audience. 
  The psychological impact of charisma is profound. People are naturally drawn to those who exude confidence and warmth. Studies in social psychology suggest that individuals with charismatic traits are often perceived as more competent, trustworthy, and even more likable, regardless of their actual abilities or intentions. This perception creates a halo effect, where one positive trait overshadows potential flaws or red flags.
