Title: Cognitive Warfare

“Mastering The Human Domain” is the final frontier of warfare: “Its objective is to sow dissonance, instigate conflicting narratives, polarize opinion, and radicalize groups” in order to disrupt or fragment entire societies.
Cognitive Warfare is defined as “art of using technologies to alter the cognition of human targets”. What technologies? The same ones that are driving Transhumanism on a global scale, namely, NBIC – nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science. ⁃

You think you can consume mass media news and entertainment and filter out the bad stuff?

I think somebody has been waging cognitive warfare on us for a long time already and I don't think I can consume their product in great amounts without being influenced or manipulated.

If you think you are special and are smarter than the teams of scientists working on influencing you I ask you to consider otherwise.

Western governments in the NATO military alliance are developing tactics of “cognitive warfare,” using the supposed threats of China and Russia to justify waging a “battle for your brain” in the “human domain,” to “make everyone a weapon.”

NATO is developing new forms of warfare to wage a “battle for the brain,” as the military alliance put it.

The US-led NATO military cartel has tested novel modes of hybrid warfare against its self-declared adversaries, including economic warfare, cyber warfare, information warfare, and psychological warfare.

Now, NATO is spinning out an entirely new kind of combat it has branded cognitive warfare. Described as the “weaponization of brain sciences,” the new method involves “hacking the individual” by exploiting “the vulnerabilities of the human brain” in order to implement more sophisticated “social engineering.”

Until recently, NATO had divided war into five different operational domains: air, land, sea, space, and cyber. But with its development of cognitive warfare strategies, the military alliance is discussing a new, sixth level: the “human domain.”

Like any other "new" weapon system, if we are hearing about it, it's already been deployable/deployed for years, maybe decades.

Which is why you avoid exposing yourself to it.  Propaganda still works, even if you know it's there.  That's been know for a long time.

Watching video vs reading is particularly bad.

What if my posted article is a psyop? Part of the information warfare?  [tinfoil]  :laugh:

Pretty much every day, I see people who consider themselves to be "professional criminals" who have face tats, wear brightly colored garb, lots of bling, and who push that public persona.
 
The REAL professional criminals? You'd never notice.

Which is why I don't read many/most threads here anymore, the OP's are just dragging that *expletive deleted*it in here.  I do not want those psychological impacts.  That's why I don't *expletive deleted*ing go to their websites or watch their rancid TV.  So naturally some "helpful" posters/bots are sent into our forums of discussion to taint them with those psychological impacts.  *expletive deleted*ing useful idiots in action.

Cognitive Warfare

MK Ultra is from the fifties.  Messing with peoples' heads has got to be a fully developed and deployed set of technologies by now.

Good quote from the z-man, sort of apropos

"A truth of life is that all societies are hierarchical. Democracy and capitalism are very clever ways for the elites to drug the masses into thinking they have a say in how society is managed. There is always someone in charge of every human group and America is no different. Those people have embraced this weird religion we call wokeness and they intend to impose it on society. The marketplace is not going to magically protect you from this madness."

Psy Ops?  Think of the marketing techniques used these days, with your Amazon devices and TVs listening to you, and the marketing companies adjusting their ads based on what you say in your home.  This battlefield has been active for a long time now.

The concept of a simulated reality or an alternative reality has been popular in science fiction since the earliest days of the genre. Either the protagonist falls though a portal into an alternative reality, usually similar to his own, or he discovers that he is living in a simulated reality controlled by others. The goal in both scenarios is to discover the actual reality and who is behind the deception.

Inevitably, that is the point of the alternative reality. The point is to deceive people so they do not notice something important to the deceivers. The movie The Matrix put this to good use by having the protagonist wake from a computer simulation to learn that he had been living in an artificial world. That world was created by the machines that had destroyed human civilization and enslaved humanity as batteries.

The enduring popularity of The Matrix and its many concepts like red pill and blue pill is due to the fact it touched on a reality of this age. That is, many people think there is something off about this world. People are trapped in hyperreality, an inability to distinguish reality from the simulation of reality experienced online. The world of the internet and mass culture crowds out actual reality for many people.

“People are not working from different opinions, but from entirely different understandings of reality.”

Have patience and grace dealing with your fellow man, they might be living in a hellish virtual reality, disconnected from all that is good, true and beautiful.

If it is you who are living in a hellscape generated by the elite, you can wake up now. You don't have to live in fear.

Their fear is, by now, comfortable.  An old friend.

The most disturbing thing about being in the middle of a war, 4th, 5th generation or unrestricted warfare that is, is identifying the enemy. There are obvious enemies but the wolves in sheep clothing appear to be the defining characteristic of the current conflict. 

We've all heard the term "fog of war" and right now all I see at the national level is fog.
