DEFCON ZERQ Ep. 037: Info Warfare, Influencer Collapse, Global Patriotism

Badlands Media

About this episode

In this episode, Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid break down the evolving battlefield of modern information warfare and what they see as the collapse of the influencer ecosystem. They explore how misinformation spreads, why prominent voices keep getting it wrong, and what that signals about a larger “cleanup phase” in media and politics.

The conversation dives deep into fifth-generation warfare, where narratives, algorithms, and perception shape reality more than traditional weapons. The hosts also touch on global patriotism, social media’s role in connecting like-minded movements, and how geopolitical tensions, including discussions around Iran, fit into a broader strategic framework.

If you have ever wondered whether information itself is the real battlefield, this episode makes the case loud and clear.
