Democrats embrace the ‘four stages of ideological subversion’

[Counselor706]

“Progressive” ideology always rests on a conviction that the current “regressive” system is comprehensively unjust and must be destroyed by exploiting its weaknesses.

The most famous proponent of such tactics in recent years has been the late Saul Alinksy, the intellectual godfather of the modern Democrat Party, but former Soviet journalist and KGB informant Yuri Bezmenov laid out an even more concise strategy for subversion in a 1984 interview

Alinksy’s seminal book specified 13 Rules for Radicals, but Bezmenov had only four “stages of ideological subversion,” and they will sound very familiar to anyone following the current wave of left-wing riots, or the politicized final stages of the coronavirus panic before it: Demoralization, Destabilization, Crisis, and Normalization.

Bezmenov defined ideological subversion, or “active measures” as the KGB preferred to call it, as a “slow brainwashing process” to “change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite their abundance of information, no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interests of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.”

I'm honestly not trying to pick on you or bully you, like I did in the past
I'm just constantly bewildered:

Why did you choose this board persona, out of the myriad of possibilities?

Why are you only interacting through links to sources or C&P's,
not even a word of personal input "I disagree" or "you're a fuckwit", like anyone else?
They wouldn't make you identifiable - is that what you're trying to avoid?
Or what?

It's an Alt for someone who is either afraid to post under their root acct because they've got a lot of Lit friends and don't want to damage their cred; or someone who is afraid that they'll be discovered and harassed as a phony if they posted this under their root account because the root account is fanatical progressive.

I'm betting the former rather than the latter.

Yes. The thing that infuriated me in the past was that he doesn't engage at all.
You ask him for clarification or you comment on his OP,
and the most you get is a Right leaning propaganda link, completely tangential to the discussion.
A few added words, a small personal input won't give his identity away, ffs.

He no longer annoys me, but his behavior is SO peculiar.

This.


BTW. What happened to Cowslinger and Klinkster?
They used to be very active, but abs. nothing lately.
Hopefully they're ok.
