"If you control the narrative, you control the people. If you shape perception, you shape reality. In 5th Generation Warfare, perception is the battlefield."  IMO-THIS IS WHY SMMA IS STILL ALLOWED

(interesting timing dontcha think?)  🧠 The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act: Legalizing Influence in 5th Generation Warfare

SMMA changed the rules of information warfare forever — not overseas, but here at home. This enables strategic psychological operations (PSYOPs) inside the homeland during what we now recognize as 5th Generation Warfare (5GW). And in this war, SMMA is a legal tool for domestic influence — arguably even psychological manipulation

SMMA gives the U.S. government a back door to influence domestic perception, legally, under the pretense that the content was “intended for foreign audiences.” Narratives Created for 'Foreign Use' Are Recycled Domestically and now flow freely across American media platforms.  And if the public doesn’t understand what 5GW is, or how tools like SMMA are used, they may never realize they’re under psychological attack — from both outside and within.  "In an information war, the first casualty is not truth — it’s your ability to know what truth is."
