WE ARE AT WAR!

by Brian T. Lynch, MSW

To say we are at war isn't hyperbole, or exaggeration. We are in a real war with real adversaries and real human consequences. It isn't a "shock and awe" kinetic war as in the past where things go bang, although that happens occasionally. It is a new type of global war being waged against Western style, civilian controlled democracies. Our adversaries are powerful, and wealthy, and well on their way to dominating our world. But the most shocking fact is that this war has been raging and escalating, for decades while most of us remain aware.

The Canadian professor, philosopher, and media theorist, Marshall McLurhan predicted that this war was coming. Most of us know him by his quote, made famous in the 1960's, "The medium is the message." Few know he also said, "World War III will be a guerrilla information war with no division between military and civilian participation." How could any of us have understood this at a time well before personal computers, email, the internet, and social media?

The mechanisms of this war are relentless media attacks to alter our public discourse, weaken our faith in public institutions and self-government, amplify disunity along social fault lines, polarize our politics, distract us, alienate us and pits us against each other. It is a war that assaults our collective consciousness. It erases or rewrites our history for sinister gain. It attacks our core beliefs, undermines our principles, debauches our morality, occludes our access to knowledge and obscures all truth. In the end, it re-sculpts our culture to better serve the enemies of civil society.

I know this account of the war will likely fall into the silent media abyss that swallows almost every minority narrative. It is up to you and me to support the authentic voices of real people and insist that we be heard in this social medium that surrounds us.

  2. Speaking to the terror attacks in London yesterday, Ms. Morris writes: "Why is England so full of Muslims, or Isis???"

    My answer: They aren't. England is full of people who have their eyeballs glued to electronic social media all day long, people who are being radicalized through high-tech, military style propaganda aim specifically at them as susceptible individuals. They are receiving specifically tailored messages and images especially designed to agitate them and cause them to crack so they go out on a killing spree. This is the new face of war. Here's how some if it works: http://aseyeseesit.blogspot.com/.../propaganda-in-digital...

    And here is a general outline of the war where we find ourselves pretty much defenseless.

    The difference between conservative and liberal ideas are real enough, but the emotional gulf that has polarized politics and divided us personally is completely manufactured and maintained by those who are waging war on our republic. Are adversaries are both foreign and domestic, both military and civilian. Our adversaries want to privately own government and control our lives for their personal gain. They have no politics to speak of. They are only driven by money and power.
