| During the Cold War, the KGB manufactured a bunch of falsehoods and sort of introduced those falsehoods via willing helpers such as left-leaning magazines in France that were still respected and | |
| The ability of the KGB was limited because how do you do damage to a society, to the workings of a society you don't really understand, you don't know well. | |
| But nowadays, the Russian intelligence and also the Chinese intelligence, they know how this country works. | |
| And they know how to destroy it. | |
| And, you know, when we're talking about, you know, this kind of psychological warfare, we are incredibly vulnerable to it. | |
| Again, because we don't have the critical thinking ability to judge what's true and what's not, or what might not be true. | |
| If it's planted, and if it's known by many to be the truth, well, they say, oh, that's got to be true, right? | |
| And, you know, the media doesn't help. | |
| Even well-meaning journalists in the mainstream media very often fall victim of these falsehoods that are being spread. | |
| Now, that's only one aspect of what Mr. Fleming talked about. | |
| You know, we're talking about The principle of asymmetric warfare, whatever you can use to weaken the enemy, you will use. | |
| And the Chinese and also the Russians are extremely systematic and, I believe, ahead of us. | |
| I mean, the Russian interference in our election was true. | |
| And how did they interfere? | |
| They weren't necessarily for one candidate or the other. | |
| They just wanted to undermine the trust of the American people in the electoral system. | |
| And they did this really well. | |
| They had a bunch of artificial personas on the internet that would join certain extremist groups and actually made them more extreme. | |
| But, you know, warfare, we're talking asymmetric warfare. | |
| We're talking about intelligent weapons. | |
| We're talking about Drugs. | |
| Introduce drugs into the other country. | |
| Just weaken your enemy in any way you can, whether knowingly or unknowingly. | |
| I'm not in those people's heads. | |
| We help them, you know, with the open border particularly. | |
| The administration admits there are so many gotaways. | |
| We don't know who they are. | |
| And they're not all Mexicans who want to work on our roofs. | |
| Historically, the United States has been very vulnerable to believing that we are invulnerable because there has never been an invasion onto the soil of the continental states. | |
| So we are very trusting and we're just like, we don't understand. | |
| We need a whole lot more of the attitude that the Israelis have, because they know they're under siege at all times. | |
| And I just want to volunteer one statement. | |
| We are doing a really, really good job weakening American society. | |
| We don't need the help from the Russians and the Chinese, but they are accelerating it, and they know what their weaknesses are, and they're digging right in there. | |
| What this country, I don't think this country will become a dictatorship like a communist dictatorship, more like an oligarchy, a class of very wealthy people with somebody at the top, like sort of Russia, but wealth will not be equally distributed. | |
| It's not going to happen because, you know, The nature of man won't allow that. | |
| As we finish up, you're seeing a pretty dark picture here in America, from internal sides, from external forces. | |
| Well, I'm not 100% negative, because there are many examples where brave people stand up and tell the truth. | |
| There are some institutions of higher learning Well, the truth is still taught, science is taught, and thinking is taught. | |
| As a spy, I did something extremely, extremely dangerous and high risk, and you can't do that unless you're an optimist, so I'm wired to be optimistic, but I'm very much concerned. | |
| I don't want to go any further, because there's still a chance that Sound minds will prevail, but we need to get to the majority of the people. | |
| The average voter who... Most of them are well-meaning, good people, but they just don't have the intellectual weapons to understand what's going on. | |
| And a lot of that is going on that may be temporarily good for them, But eventually we'll turn on them. |
