KGB defector Yuri Beznemov on ideological subversion (or psychological warfare)

[Orgasmo]

What was the saying? None is more hopelessly enslaved than a slave who thinks he's free.

So let me get this straight.

The Russians engineered the American Civil Rights Revolution, in the 1960's, when they themselves were Communists, because they believed that Communist ideas weakened a nation's ability to ideologically defend its core virtues, and was certain to undermine American strength in the long-term, fail, and collapse American government/civilization? FFS. Tell me: how did Russia control our education system to "demoralize" us? How did they "confuse" us when we remained virulently anti-Communist and anti-Soviet all the way through the 1980's when we successfully engineered the Soviet collapse?

Yeah, real fucking geniuses there. Clearly they were super successful.


You know what he's describing? He's describing RussiaToday. Ironically, that channel is feeding our extreme political right, and the other various CT-types stupid and fearful enough to drink this shit up as if it is (or has ever been) a legitimate, effective strategic threat.

Well the brainwashing apparently worked for IDL and Thuriaz

Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov, known by the alias Tomas David Schuman, was a Soviet journalist for RIA Novosti and a former member of PGU KGB.

Interesting talk from the 80s regarding the tactics of the subversion of a nation.


Another interview with Yuri that I found rather interesting.

Very groovy.

well done Soviet Union, making headway in the cold war - finally.

Gotta respect the long game.

Gotta respect the long game.

The ideological seeds you sow eventually take root and grow if the mental fields you sow are well fertilized.

Oh, so Russian intelligence actually haven't been interfering in our politics or social lives? Good to know.

I remember debating identy politics at university and completely humiliating sjw's and professors included.
Back then I tought this non-sense would disappear, but it's now gone totally mainstream.
In short, they use the entertainment and news media to encourage globalism and to discourage nationalism and traditional western values. They distort and lie about the past and present in that effort.
A major Cultural War is taking place right before our eyes. Now is not the time to remain silent. If you haven't chosen a side, a side will be to chosen for you.

If you think about it, the left has already captured all the major cultural centers in American society: Hollywood, media, Universities. It's hard to not believe this hasn't been a deliberate takeover tactic.

Almost like it's hard to believe this isn't a deliberate tactic to take over law enforcement next.

The long march through the institutions

(German: der lange Marsch durch die Institutionen) is a slogan coined by Communist student activist Rudi Dutschke circa 1967 to describe his strategy for establishing the conditions for revolution: subverting society by infiltrating institutions such as the professions. The phrase "long march" is a reference to the prolonged struggle of the Chinese communists, which included a physical Long March of their army across China.[1]

The main influence on Dutschke's thinking is commonly thought to be the work of Italian communist Antonio Gramsci who, while imprisoned by Mussolini, wrote about cultural hegemony and the need for a "war of position" to establish the conditions for a revolutionary "war of maneuver".[2] Degroot also identifies Ernst Bloch as a major influence.[3] Bloch met Dutschke at Bad Boll in 1968 and admired his integrity and determination, qualities that he had written about in 'The Principle of Hope' (Das Prinzip Hoffnung) as being essential for the achievement of utopia.[3]

Herbert Marcuse corresponded with Dutschke in 1971 to agree with this strategy, "Let me tell you this: that I regard your notion of the 'long march through the institutions' as the only effective way..."[4] In his 1972 book, Counterrevolution and Revolt, Marcuse wrote:[5]

"To extend the base of the student movement, Rudi Dutschke has proposed the strategy of the long march through the institutions: working against the established institutions while working within them, but not simply by 'boring from within', rather by 'doing the job', learning (how to program and read computers, how to teach at all levels of education, how to use the mass media, how to organize production, how to recognize and eschew planned obsolescence, how to design, et cetera), and at the same time preserving one's own consciousness in working with others.

The long march includes the concerted effort to build up counterinstitutions. They have long been an aim of the movement,but the lack of funds was greatly responsible for their weakness and their inferior quality. They must be made competitive. This is especially important for the development of radical, "free" media. The fact that the radical Left has no equal access to the great chains of information and indoctrination is largely responsible for its isolation."

For Gramsci it was fundamental to the attainment of power that cultural hegemony be achieved first. In Gramsci's view, a class cannot dominate in modern conditions by merely advancing its own narrow economic interests; neither can it dominate purely through force and coercion.[39] Rather, it must exert intellectual and moral leadership, and make alliances and compromises with a variety of forces.[39] Gramsci calls this union of social forces a "historic bloc", taking a term from Georges Sorel. This bloc forms the basis of consent to a certain social order, which produces and re-produces the hegemony of the dominant class through a nexus of institutions, social relations, and ideas.[39] In this way, Gramsci's theory emphasized the importance of the political and ideological superstructure in both maintaining and fracturing relations of the economic base.

Gramsci stated that bourgeois cultural values were tied to folklore, popular culture and religion, and therefore much of his analysis of hegemonic culture is aimed at these. He was also impressed by the influence Roman Catholicism had and the care the Church had taken to prevent an excessive gap developing between the religion of the learned and that of the less educated. Gramsci saw Marxism as a marriage of the purely intellectual critique of religion found in Renaissance humanism and the elements of the Reformation that had appealed to the masses. For Gramsci, Marxism could supersede religion only if it met people's spiritual needs, and to do so people would have to think of it as an expression of their own experience.

Places like Minneapolis are discussing defunding their Police.

You are right, that they will replace it with some shariah law social justice warrior nonsense. And if you don't buy in to the Leftist mobs, you might think about selling your home or business and getting out while you can.

If you're sensible, you leave the city to rot and move out to the fringe of the suburbs or further.

 

[AgentSmecker]

Just stumbled across this guy on yt today. Mind blowing stuff and the whole time I was watching I was like holy fuck this guy knew what was coming. Sad thing is the people in need of watching it most will never watch it and even if they did they'd probably still fail to see the parallels to what is happening right now in front of their own eyes.

It's funny how you guys constantly try to scare yourself with the communist boogeyman that's been dead longer than you've been sentient.

They never died, their ideas just matriculated here in the States till they've become your ideological masters. Old school communists and young ideological socialists feeding from the same trough.

So many of you that post on here read like poor caricatures of characters out of animal farm.

I saw a KGB document, dated from 1984, stating that they were going to form a group in the US called black lives matter, after seeing the success of the black panthers with self-depraving whites. Those people then recruited their retarded, childhood friends, to impregnate them and perpetuate the soyboy fgt gene. So this is all just part of the plan.
