Dr. Robert Malone discusses his book “Psywar,” exploring fifth-generation warfare, psychological operations, narrative control, societal impacts, and the challenges of discerning reality in a manipulated information landscape.
Like all of us, Dr. Robert Malone and his wife Jill had to grope around for understanding during the early days of Covid. What began as a diligent effort to help the world cope with a novel disease, soon turned into a disconcerting series of discoveries and unpleasant personal and professional experiences.
Dr. Malone’s journey toward understanding the true origins and purposes of Covid and into the public eye began with a phone call in early January 2020. A retired CIA operative alerted him to a novel coronavirus in Wuhan, prompting Malone to mobilize his team to assess the threat.
His rapid assessment of the coronavirus landscape revealed the bleak history of vaccine development for coronaviruses, promptly leading him to focus on drug repurposing as a more viable strategy.
However, Malone immediately encountered unprecedented resistance to publishing his findings on drug repurposing. He recently told me in the podcast (lined here and below) that “it was exceedingly difficult to get anything published concerning drug repurposing for this particular virus,”
As our conversation unfolded, Malone shared how his realization of the broader forces at play developed. One thing led to another, policies contradicted known facts, vaccine harms were buried, and there was no official curiosity in challenging any of this or doing better.
He soon discovered that these weren’t errors, but reflected a coordinated effort to control the narrative, a strategy that had been pre-planned, as evidenced by exercises like Event 201. This realization was a turning point for Malone, marking his entry into the realm of psychological operations, or “Psywar,” as he titled his latest book.
Covid, you see, was an opportunity for a hodge-podge of government agencies and affiliated private corporations to practice weaponized narrative control. The tools of their trade are ridiculously powerful, especially when directed against people who are highly educated and/or utilize abstract thinking as part of their professional lives.
