Can you expand on this a bit: "We’re in fifth generation warfare now, and every man is a nation"

What exactly do you mean by "every man is a nation"?

Short story. It took me about 15 years of trying to "change" the system and open hearts and minds before I got the point you made in this short essay. Great articulation.

The last straw for me, when I realized people around me actually know it is wrong but were apathetic. People are addicted to normalcy and routine. Plus, those same people will slip back into that hive mindset five seconds after admitting they know it is all a racket. ..to cheering on their favorite team based politician and regurgitating whatever slop they got from the news. I no longer do public activism, writing ( publicly) or work with any campaigns. ( I was a libertarian in the US) Now, I focus on what I can affect, the minds of my children. I spend my time homeschooling them as well as expanding my own mental toolkit. This war is over and anonymity has significant value at this time.
