In my psychology class we learned a story (could be apocryphal) that people were remarking there were no more Coca Cola advertisements. Coca Cola was obviously concerned, since they spent so much money on advertising, so they looked into it. Turns out, they had saturated the market with so much advertising, that people subconsciously blocked it out as background noise.

This is the problem the online world has. All the key players are online, and everyone’s tuned them out. You can scream into your keyboard all day long that the vaccine kills, but no one notices anymore…. Take that message to the streets and the game changes instantly.

Think they don’t know this? You can type any antisemetic, anti Muslim, racist diatribe all day long in the internet and no one cares outside of hypochondriac twitter users. If you’re cheeky about it and beat the algorithm, it wont even be taken down. Now go to YouTube and type in “Antisemetic flyers” or “it’s okay to be white signs” or “Islam is right about women.” You’ll find legit news segments, wringing their hands over it. You’ll see the FBI investigates signsthat says “it’s okay to be white.” They know the power of advertising, and they know it’s diluted online.

The point of all that is… take 5th gen warfare to the streets. Make stickers, stencils, shirts, make it hip and cool. There’s the awakening. There’s the audience. That’s the next battlefield. What’s old is new.

Agreed that this is information warfare, but we will also need to push for legal action. Hard to contribute to the public library of information when your card has been rescinded.
