Pt. 02 will be a full presentation on TW premium, coming to my Substack this weekend. ”What if some false conspiracy theories are put out into the public mind in order to intentionally distract from the real conspiracy, or even to help it along?” - DW”It is very common for disinformation to be found within the conspiracy literature. I believe this is partly because intelligence services feed fake information to discredit both conspiracy theories in general (thereby exploiting the human tendency to associate all “conspiracies” with these planted farcical falsehoods) and to discredit specific political opponents.Very few people have the time or ability to properly verify sources, so as a result just like any other field, it is extremely easy for claims that have no actual evidence supporting them to be widely viewed as claims that are well supported by evidence.”- A Midwestern DoctorMARXIST TACTICS FOR REVOLUTION

Bezmenov said that Marxist overthrow begins by undermining the values of the targeted society. “Ideological subversion is the process, which is legitimate, overt, and open; you can see it with your own eyes. All you have to do, all American mass media has to do, is to unplug their bananas from their ears, open up their eyes, and they can see it. There is no mystery.” 

When it came to KGB efforts, Bezmenov said: 

Only about 15% of the time, money, and manpower [are] spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process, which we call either ‘ideological subversion,’ or ‘active measures’—in the language of the KGB—or ‘psychological warfare.’ What it basically means is, to change the perception of reality, of every American, to such an extent that despite of the 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. 

The ex-KGB agent said the “great brainwashing process” begins with a “demoralization” process that takes “15-20 years . . . the minimum number of years which [is required] to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy, exposed to the ideology of the enemy.”

From there, “it takes only from two to five years to destabilize a nation—what matters [are] essentials: economy, foreign relations, defense systems.” Next, “It may take only up to six weeks to bring a country to the verge of crisis.” Finally, “with a violent change of power, structure, and economy, you have a period of normalization. It may last indefinitely.” At that point, Marxism reigns unimpeded.

SUBVERSION OF AMERICA WELL UNDERWAY

Bezmenov said the demoralization stage was already “over-fulfilled” by the 1980s. “Most of it is done by Americans to Americans, thanks to a lack of moral standards,” he said. He had no hope for those educated in the increasingly Marxist universities of the West who were now in positions of power and influence across America. “You cannot change their mind, even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still cannot change the basic perception and the logic of behavior…. the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible.”

Bezmenov claimed Soviet pressure led to his dismissal from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in the 1970s. This almost certainly contributed to his view of the United States as “the last country of freedom and possibility” in the world, but for how long?

“The time bomb is ticking: with every second, the disaster is coming closer and closer. Unlike [me], you will have nowhere to defect to,” he said. Yet, Bezmenov was far from complacent and claimed that the “United States is in a state of war: undeclared, total war against the basic principles and foundations of this system;” perpetrated, not by the head of the USSR but by “the world Communist system.”

In his 1984 book, “Love Letter to America,” Bezmenov explained,

We rarely use guns to kill people and take their country. The cleanest way is to blackmail, pervert, bribe, lie and intimidate the POLITICIANS and the MEDIA, and they will destabilize and disunify their own country for us. Then all we have left to do is to arm the procommunist or simply criminal factions and we have a coup and another “liberated” country. As neat as that.

Bezmenov told Griffin, “This is what will happen in [the] United States if you allow all these schmucks to bring the country to crisis, to promise people all kind[s] of goodies and the paradise on earth, to destabilize your economy, to eliminate the principle of free market competition, and to put [a] Big Brother government in Washington, D.C. with benevolent dictators like Walter Mondale,” said Bezmenov regarding the Democratic candidate for president in 1984.
