Just watched this 1 hour video....twice. Generally, I hate S2 types, but this guy is pretty good.


I didn't know what 5th generation warfare was and I'm still a bit foggy, but he shed some light on it. In a nutshell, the first through third generation warfare was state force on force to physically take land. Fourth generation warfare is basically state vs guerrilla warfare to take/control land. 5 G warfare is a method for an actor (very possibly non-state) to sew confusion, misinformation, shape perceptions, alter societal norms, gaslight, amplify differences, ect, with the end goal being to subjugate or bring down a society without them knowing who did it. 5 G warfare can occur in the psychological, cyber or physical space.

The implication in the video is that America is currently knee deep in a 5th generation war and most don't even know it. People know something is wrong but can't put their finger on the exact problem or source. Americas got racial, political, gender, moral, religious, financial, and cultural conflicts galore, with no solutions in sight. This could all be attributed to 5G warfare being waged on us.

He had a few remedies for 5G warfare. Take time to disconnect from the internet and ground yourself. Think critically about issues your facing and keep your problems relative to their actual impact on your life. Being as prepared and self-sufficient as possible makes it less likely that others can exercise their influence over you. Don't allow anyone you don't trust to mold the mind of your children.

Anyhow, I thought it was thought provoking enough to share it. Do you believe that 5G warfare is intentionally being waged in America right now?

And we have been doing versions of 5G warfare for many decades oversees with other countries and I suspect the deep state has been doing this internally against the American people for a long time. My exposure to what we were doing with other countries while I was in the military caused me to retire from the military at 22 years of service just before pinning on 06 as I didn't want to participate in this any longer. And it isn't necessarily the military that is leading this, its the state department and three letter agencies and their NGO stooges. The military was simply a tool to clean up the mess, or as diversionary cover in the most part.

We’ve been knee-deep in it since the 60s

A little research shows exactly who’s behind it.

What you’re describing has been going on for centuries. It’s information warfare and it’s as old as the existence of media and spy networks.

to all those who are saying that 5th gen warfare has been going on for decades if not hundreds of years I think you miss the entire holistic approach and therefore the very definition of 5th gen warfare. YES some of the tactics such as misinformation or psychological operations are as old as war itself but those are only aspects of 5th gen warfare. Its the target of the hostility and the vector of attack that is different from past iterations. In previous gens ie 3rd / 4th the soft tactics of mis / disinformation or propaganda if you wish were simply aspects of the mainline goal which was the attrition of enemy combatant units and the destruction of his ability to physically conduct war. Now of course that involved the psychological attempts to undermine his support at home in the case of Vietnam or degrade the enemies will to fight via propaganda. In 5th gen though the target isn't the enemy war fighter. Its the civilian population. It has nothing at all to do with tanks, missiles, guns, small unit tactics or battlefield strategy. It targets the civilian population and uses non kinetic weapons. It is a total war of the mind and space of the citizen NOT the soldier or nation state. The collapse of our society as we see it happening right now IS 5th gen warfare.. This arrticle is a pretty good read on the topic. The author does a decent job of explaining it.. in the article he mentions William Lind who is a author or warfare and is well regarded by many in the know.. If you want to further your knowledge the links to Lind's work are good to follow...

Well, the concept is not new. The only difference is that 5th Gen warfare uses modern day technology like cyberattacks and online disinformation and social engineering vs. in person or through the newspapers.

Robert Steele who was kind of a nut job coined the term in the early 2000s.

if the article is too long for you then this quote from the end might peak your interest enough to read it..


" My regular readers will understand what I am proposing here: the creation of a parallel society. We will not achieve this by asking for more scraps from the master’s table, or by gently complying as we are herded into ever more constrictive technological pens, or by thinking that we can win this war by engaging the enemy in their controlled domain. We can only achieve this by creating our own table, our own economy and our own communities of interest. This will require the long and difficult task of increasing our independence from the authoritarian systems in every domain: the information domain, the food domain, the health domain, the monetary domain, the mental domain and every other contested battlespace in this all-out, fifth-generation war.

Easier said than done, of course. But there is no alternative.

Some will say "But won't they come after that parallel society?" as if that is a rebuttal to what I have laid out here. The point is that you are already the target of the enemy in a war that most people but dimly understand is happening. Yes, the enemy will come after you. But they are already dominating you in more ways than any one person can fully understand. That does not stop just because you comply with their demands or take part in their system."

Again you miss the entire point.. While 2nd and 3rd gen warfare both include the same basic hardware does that mean that they are the same? Does that mean that because In the revolutionary war we used rifles with gun powder and we did the same in WW2 that they are the same?? The same hardware was used, both had spies. In 4th gen though maneuver warfare as predominate. We no longer lined up on the battle field and fired volleys into each other. Now you could claim "yeah but Rogers Rangers and Nathaniel Greene and Francis Marion. They didnt use conventional tactics" Agreed, they were more unconventional warfare and guerilla insurgency type practitioners but they were outliers. They were NOT accepted as the norm. The equipment, technology or even the tactics used differentiated the different generations of warfare evolution but 5th gen is different. It does not include physical kinetic combat AT ALL though that MAY be a portion of it. In 5th gen physical combat is nothing but a secondary aspect to the more predominate aspects of societal control...Its VERY VERY different

Very interesting. Will watch the video tonight, about to head out on the day's foraging run to Home Depot and other greedy, subversive, souless corporate megamonoliths. ;)

I'm 68 and still have a lot to learn.

Of course. But multiple entities are engaged in attacking us thusly. Our own government is one of those entities. We are too complacent as a population to do anything about it.

It's true. People know something is wrong, but they can't put their finger on it. 5G warfare is taking place all day every day. On social media, we see it as "right versus left." If you lurk long enough on sites on both "sides," you'll see that they are both saying exactly the same thing about the other. For example, right now I see the left as a bunch of commies. But my aunt (whom I love very much but is a major libtard) is dead certain that all conservatives are pushing for socialism. Especially Trumpers. And each "side" is convinced they are the true Americans and true defenders of freedom.

But it's not just politics expressed on social media. It's everything. All the damn lies we've been told all these years. All the pointless and ridiculous "laws" made to keep us "safe." It takes a machete and vice grip to get through the tamper-proof wrapping on a bottle of aspirin. And why? Because in 1982 a great hoax was pulled off called "The Tylenol Murders." Now we have this constant thing in the back of our head that our fellow man is trying to poison us. It might not be conscious, but it's there and it causes fear. And the damn tamper-proof wrapping is enough to cause a conniption. That's 5G warfare.

Then there's the constant undercurrent of lack and there not being enough to go around. "Don't waste water!" How can you waste it? Do people not understand the water cycle? It'll evaporate and rain back down. It's the most abundant resource on the planet. "But there's not enough!" That's why they diverted billions of gallons of fresh water into the ocean, almost turning California into a desert for a few years. To save some fish, they said. 5G warfare.

And what about population? Do we really have 8 billion people? Forty years ago, I remember being told it was maybe a couple of billion, if that. Has no one died during that time? If you have 120 people, about 60 of them are female. Of that 60, 20 are past childbearing age and 20 are too young. That leaves 20 to bear children. A couple won't be able to do so due to a physical problem. A couple more will refuse. One will die. Now we're down to 15. Yes, the young will grow up, but then the current childbearing women will age. It just doesn't make any sense. But even if there are 8 or 9 billion people, the Earth is GIGANTIC. But the 5G warfare has people (of a certain race) scared to death to reproduce while others are going hog wild.

Sorry if I sound like I'm going off on a tangent here. But that's the point. This kind of warfare is all-pervasive. It's in EVERYTHING, from the food you think you're supposed to eat to your lifestyle to.....DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HEALTHCARE or the lack of sensibility related to it. 5G warfare convinced 70% of the population (so we're told--that's part of the warfare, too) to pump their arms full of poison!

Right now 5G warfare is convincing a teen to commit suicide, a pedophile to "go for it," a grandmother to take so-called medication to turn her bones into a sponge. And the worse part about is that the entire apparatus feeds off the guilt of well-meaning people, and the pricks in charge will tell you it's all for your own good.
