CHAPTER
I
THE HISTORY AND DEFINITION OF
PSYCHOPOLITICS
Although punishment for its own sake may not be
entirely without recompense, it is, nevertheless, true that the
end and goal of all punishment is the indoctrination of the person
being punished with an idea, whether that idea be one of restraint
or obedience.
In that any ruler has, from time beyond memory,
needed the obedience of his subject in order to accomplish his
ends, he has thus resorted to punishment. This is true of every
tribe and state in the history of Man. Today, Russian culture
has evolved more certain and definite methods of aligning and
securing the loyalties of persons and populace, and of enforcing
obedience upon them. This modern outgrowth of old practice is
called Psychopolitics.
The stupidity and narrowness of nations not blessed
with Russian reasoning has caused them to rely upon practices
which are, today, too ancient and out-moded for the rapid and
heroic pace of our time. And in view of the tremendous advance
of Russian Culture in the field of mental technologies, begun
with the glorious work of Pavlov and carried forward so ably by
later Russians, it would be strange that an art and science would
not evolve totally devoted to the aligning of loyalties and extracting
the obedience of individuals and multitudes.
Thus we see that psychopolitical procedures are
a natural outgrowth of practices as old as Man, practices which
are current in every group of men throughout the world. Thus,
in psychopolitical procedures there is no ethical problem, since
it is obvious and evident that Man is always coerced against his
will to the greater good of the State, whether by economic gains
or indoctrination into the wishes and desires of the State.
Basically, Man is an animal. He is an animal which
has been given a civilized veneer. Man is a collective animal,
grouped together for his own protection before the threat of the
environment. Those who so group and control him must have in their
possession specialized techniques to direct the vagaries and energies
of the animal Man toward greater efficiency in the accomplishment
of the goals of the State.
Psychopolitics, in one form or another, have long
been used in Russia, but the subject is all but unknown outside
the borders of our nation, save only where we have carefully transplanted
our information and where it is used for the greater good of the
nation.
The definition of Psychopolitics follows.
Psychopolitics is the art and science of asserting
and maintaining dominion over the thoughts and loyalties of the
individuals, officers, bureaus, and masses, and the effecting
of the conquest of the enemy nations through "mental healing."
The subject of Psychopolitics breaks down into
several categories, each a natural and logical proceeding from
the last. Its first subject is the constitution and anatomy of
Man, himself, as a political organism. The next is an examination
of Man as an economic organism, as this might be controlled by
his desires. The next is classification of State goals for the
individual and masses. The next is an examination of loyalties.
The next is the general subject of obedience. The next is the
anatomy of the stimulus-response mechanisms of Man. The next is
he subjects of shock and endurance. The next is categories of
experience. The next is the catalyzing and aligning of experience.
The next is the use of drugs. The next is the use of implantation.
The next is the general application of Psychopolitics within Russia.
The next is the organizations outside Russia, their composition
and activity. The next is the creation of slave philosophy in
a hostile nation. The next is countering anti-psychopolitical
activities abroad, and the final one, the destiny of psychopolitical
rule in a scientific age. To this might be added many sub categories,
such as the nullification of modern weapons by psychopolitical
activity.
The strength and power of Psychopolitics cannot
be overestimated, particularly when used in a nation decayed by
pseudo-intellectualism, where exploitation of the masses combines
readily with psychopolitical actions, and particularly where the
greed of Capitalistic or Monarchial regimes has already brought
about an overwhelming incidence of neurosis which can be employed
as the groundwork for psychopolitical action and psychopolitical
corps.
It is part of your mission, student, to prevent
psychopolitical activity to the detriment of the Russian State,
just as it is your mission to carry forward in our nation and
outside it, if you are so assigned, the missions and goals of
Psychopolitics. No agent of Russian could be even remotely effective
without a thorough grounding in Psychopolitics, and so you carry
forward with you a Russian trust to use well what you are learning
here.
CHAPTER
II
THE CONSTITUTION OF MAN AS
A
POLITICAL ORGANISM
Man is already a colonial aggregation of cells,
and to consider him an individual would be an error. Colonies
of cells have gathered together as one organ or another of the
body, and then these organs have, themselves, gathered together
to form the whole. Thus we see that man, himself, is already a
political organism, even if we do not consider a mass of men.
Sickness could be considered to be a disloyalty
to the remaining organisms on the part of one organism. This disloyalty,
becoming apparent, brings about a revolt of some part of the anatomy
against the remaining whole, and thus we have, in effect, an internal
revolution. The heart, becoming disaffected, falls away from close
membership and service to the remainder of the organism, and we
discover the entire body in all of its activities is disrupted
because of the revolutionary activity of the heart. The heart
is in revolt because it cannot or will not co-operate with the
remainder of the body. If we permit the heart thus to revolt,
the kidneys, taking the example of the heart, may in their turn
rebel and cease to work for the good of the organism. This rebellion,
multiplying to the other organs and the glandular system, brings
about the death of the "individual." We can see with easy that
the revolt is death, that the revolt of any part of the organism
results in death. Thus we see that there can be no compromise
with rebellion.
Like the "individual" man, the State is a collection
of aggregations. The political entities within the State must,
all of them, co-operate for the greater good of the State lest
the State itself fall asunder and die, for with the disaffection
of any single distrust we discover and example set for other districts,
and we discover, at length, the entire State falling. This is
the danger of revolution.
Look at Earth. We see here one entire organism.
The organism of Earth is an individual organism. Earth has as
its organs the various races and nations of men. Where one of
these is permitted to remain disaffected, Earth itself is threatened
with death. The threatened rebellion of one country, no matter
now small, against the total organism of Earth, would find Earth
sick, and the cultural state of man to suffer in consequence .
Thus, the putrescent illness of Capitalist States, spreading their
puss and bacteria into the healthy countries of the world would
not do otherwise than bring about the death of Earth, unless these
ill organisms are brought into loyalty and obedience and made
to function for the greater good of the world-wide State.
The constitution of Man is so composed that the
individual cannot function efficiently without the alignment of
each and every part and organ of his anatomy. As the average individual
is incapable, in an unformed and uncultured state, as witness
the barbarians of the jungle, so must he be trained into a co-ordination
of his organic functions by exercise, education, and work toward
specific goals. We particularly and specifically note that the
individual must be directed from without to accomplish his exercise,
education, and work. He must be made to realize this, for only
then can he be made to function efficiently in the role assigned
to him.
The tenets of rugged individualism, personal determinism,
self-will, imagination, and personal creativeness are alike in
the masses antipathetic to the good of the Greater State. These
willful and unaligned forces are no more than illnesses which
will bring about the disaffection, disunity, and at length the
collapse of the group to which the individual is attached.
The constitution of Man lends itself easily and
thoroughly to certain and positive regulation from without of
all of its functions, including those of thinking, obedience,
and loyalty, and these things must be controlled if a greater
State is to ensue.
While it may seem desirable to the surgeon to amputate
one or another limb or organ in order to save the remainder, it
must be pointed out that this expediency is not entirely possible
of accomplishment where one considers entire nations. A body deprived
of organs can be observed to be lessened by its effectiveness.
The world deprived of the workers now enslaved by the insane and
nonsensical idiocies of the Capitalists and Monarchs of Earth,
would, if removed, create a certain disability in the world-wide
State. Just as we see the victor forced to rehabilitate the population
of a conquered country at the end of a war, thus any effort to
depopulate a disaffected portion of the world might have some
consequence. However, let us consider the inroad of virus and
bacteria hostile to the organism, and we see that unless we can
conquer the germ, the organ or organism which it is attacking
will, itself, suffer.
In any State we have certain individuals who operate
in the role of the virus and germ, and these, attacking the population
or any group within the population, produce, by their self-willed
greed, a sickness in the organ, which then generally spreads to
the whole.
The constitution of Man as an individual body, or
the constitution of a State or a portion of the State as a political
organism are analogous. It is the mission of Psychopolitics first
to align the obedience and goals of the group, and then maintain
their alignment by the eradication of the effectiveness of the
persons and personalities which might swerve the group towards
disaffection. In our own nation, where things are better managed
and where reason reigns above all else, it is not difficult to
eradicate the self-willed bacteria which might attack one of our
political entities. But in the field of conquest, in nations less
enlightened, where the Russian State does not yet have power,
it is not as feasible to remove the entire self-willed individual.
Psychopolitics makes it possible to remove that art of his personality
which, in itself, is making havoc with the person's own constitution
as well as the group with which the person is connected.
If the animal man were permitted to continue undisturbed
by counter-revolutionary propaganda, if he were left to work under
the well-planned management of the State, we would discover little
sickness amongst Man, and we would discover no sickness in the
State. But where the individual is troubled by conflicting propaganda,
where he is made the effect of revolutionary activities, where
he is permitted to think thoughts critical of the State itself,
where he is permitted to question of those in whose natural charge
he falls, we would discover his constitution to suffer. We would
discover, from this disaffection, the additional disaffection
of his heart and of other portions of his anatomy;. So certain
is this principle that when one finds a sick individual, could
one search deeply enough, he would discover a mis-aligned loyalty
and an interrupted obedience to that person's group unit.
There are those who foolishly have embarked upon
some spiritual Alice-in-Wonderland voyage into what they call
the "subconscious" or the "unconscious" mind, and who, under the
guise of "psychotherapy" would seek to make well the disaffection
of body organs, but it is to be noted that their results are singularly
lacking in success. There is no strength in such an approach.
When hypnotism was first invented in Russia, it was observed that
all that was necessary was to command the unresisting individual
to be well in order, many times, to accomplish that fact. The
limitation of hypnotism was that many subjects were not susceptible
to its uses, and thus hypnotism has had to be improved upon in
order to increase the suggestibility of individuals who would
not otherwise be reached. Thus, any nation has had the experience
of growing well again, as a whole organism, when placing sufficient
force in play against a disaffected group. Just as in hypnotism
any organ can be commanded into greater loyalty and obedience,
so can any political group be commanded into greater loyalty and
obedience should sufficient force be employed. However, force
often brings about destruction and it is occasionally not feasible
to use broad mass force t o accomplish the ends in view. Thus,
it is necessary to align the individual against his desire not
to conform.
Just as it is a recognized truth that Man must conform
to his environment, so it is a recognized truth, and will become
more so as the years proceed, that even the body of Man can be
commanded into health.
The constitution of Man renders itself peculiarly
adapted to re-alignment of loyalties. Where these loyalties are
indigestible to the constitution of the individual itself, such
as loyalties to the 'petit bourgeoisie,' the Capitalist, to anti-Russian
ideas, we find the individual body peculiarly susceptible to sickness,
and thus we can clearly understand the epidemics, illnesses, mass-neuroses,
tumults and confusions of the United States and other capitalist
countries. Here we find the worker improperly and incorrectly
loyal, and thus we find the worker ill. To save him and establish
him correctly and properly upon his goal toward a greater State,
it is an overpowering necessity to make it possible for him to
grant his loyalties in a correct direction. In that his loyalties
are swerved and his obedience cravenly demanded by persons antipathetic
to his general good, and in that these persons are few, even in
a Capitalist nation, the goal and direction of Psychopolitics
is clearly understood. To benefit the worker in such a plight,
it is necessary to eradicate, by general propaganda, by other
means, and by his own co-operation, and self-willedness of perverted
leaders. It is necessary, as well, to indoctrinate the educated
strata into the tenets and principles of co-operation with the
environment, and thus to insure the worker less warped leadership,
less craven doctrine, and more co-operation with the ideas and
ideals of the Communist State.
The technologies of Psychopolitics are directed
to this end.
CHAPTER
III
MAN AS AN ECONOMIC ORGANISM
Man is subject to certain desires and needs which
are as natural to his being as they are to that of any other animal.
Man, however, has the peculiarity of exaggerating some of these
beyond the bounds of reason. This is obvious through the growth
of leisure classes, pseudo-intellectual groups, the "petit bourgeoisie,"
Capitalism, and ott her ills.
It has been said, with truth, that one tenth of
a man's life is concerned with politics and nine-tenths with economics.
Without food, the individual dies. Without clothing, he freezes.
Without houses and weapons, he is prey to the starving wolves.
The acquisition of sufficient items to answer these necessities
of food, clothing and shelter, in reason, is the natural right
of a member of an enlightened State. An excess of such items brings
about unrest and disquiet. The presence of luxury items and materials,
and the artificial creation and whetting of appetites, as in Capitalist
advertising, are certain to accentuate the less-desirable characteristics
of Man.
The individual is an economic organism, in that
he requires a certain amount of food, a certain amount of water,
and must hold within himself a certain amount of heat in order
to live. When he has more food than he can eat, more clothing
than he needs to protect him, he then enters upon a certain idleness
which dulls his wits and awareness, and makes him prey to difficulties
which, in a less toxic state, he would have foreseen and avoided.
Thus, we have a glut of being a menace to the individual.
It is no less different in a group. Where the group
acquires too much, its awareness of its own fellows and of the
environment is accordingly reduced, and the effectiveness the
group in general is lost.
The maintaining of a balance between gluttony and
need is the province of Economics proper, and is the fit subject
and concern of the Communist State.
Desire and want are a state of mind. Individuals
can be educated into desiring and wanting more than they can ever
possibly obtain, and such individuals are unhappy. Most of the
self-willed characteristics of the Capitalists come entirely from
greed. He exploits the worker far beyond any necessity on his
own part, as a Capitalist, to need.
In a nation where economic balances are not controlled,
the appetite of the individual is unduly whetted by enchanting
and fanciful persuasions to desire, and a type of insanity ensues,
where each individual is persuaded to possess more than he can
use, and to possess it even at the expense of his fellows.
There is, in economic balances, the other side.
Too great and too long privation can bring about unhealthy desires,
which, in themselves, accumulate in left action, more than the
individual can use. Poverty, itself, as carefully cultivated in
Capitalist States, can bring about an imbalance of acquisition.
Just as a vacuum will pull into it masses, in a country where
enforced privation upon the masses is permitted, and where desire
is artificially whetted, need turns to greed, and one easily discovers
in such states exploitation of the many for the benefit of the
few.
If one, by the technologies of Psychopolitics, were
to dull the excessive greed in the few who possess it, the worker
would be freed to seek a more natural balance.
Here we have two extremes. Either one of them are
an insanity. If we wish to create an insanity we need only glut
or deprive an individual at long length beyond the ability to
withstand and we have a mental imbalance. A simple example of
this is the alternation of too low with too high pressures in
a chamber, an excellent psychopolitical procedure. The rapidly
varied pressure brings about a chaos wherein the individual will
cannot act and where other wills then, perforce, assume control.
Essentially, in an entire country, one must remove
the greedy by whatever means and must then create and continue
a semi-privation in the masses in order to command and utterly
control the nation.
A continuous hope for prosperity must be indoctrinated
into the masses with many dreams and visions of glut of commodity
and this hope must be counter-played against the actuality of
privation and the continuous threat of loss of all economic factors
in case of disloyalty to the State in order to suppress the individual
wills of the masses.
In a nation under conquest, such as America, our
slow and stealthy approach need take advantage only of the cycles
of booms and depressions inherent in Capitalistic nations in order
to assert of more and more strong control over individual wills.
A boom is as advantageous as a depression for our ends, for during
prosperity our propaganda lines must only continue to point up
the wealth the period is delivering to the selected few to divorce
their control of the State. During a depression one must only
point out that it ensued as a result of the avarice of a few and
the general political incompetence of the national leaders.
The handling of economic propaganda is not properly
the sphere of psychopolitics but the psychopolitician must understand
the economic measures and Communist goals connected with them.
The masses must at last come to believe that only
excessive taxation of the rich can deliver them of the "burdensome
leisure class" and can thus be brought to accept such a thing
as income tax, a Marxist principle smoothly slid into Capitalistic
framework in 1909-1913 in the United States. This, even though
the basic law of the United States forbade it and even though
Communism at that time had been active only a few years in America.
Such success as the Income Tax law, had it been followed thoroughly
could have brought the United States and not Russia into the world
scene as the first Communist nation. But the virility and good
sense of the Russian peoples won. It may not be that the United
States will become entirely Communist until past the middle of
the century, but when it does it will be because of our superior
understanding of economics and of psychopolitics.
The Communist agent skilled in economics has as
his task the suborning of tax agencies and their personnel to
create the maximum disturbances and chaos and the passing of laws
adapted to our purposes and to him we must leave this task. The
psychopolitical operator plays a distinctly different role in
this drama.
The rich, the skilled in finance,the well informed
in government are particular and individual targets for the psychopolitician.
His is the role of taking off the board those individuals who
would halt or corrupt Communist economic programs. Thus every
rich man, every statesman, ever person well informed and capable
in government, must have brought to his side as a trusted confidant,
a psychopolitical operator.
The families of these persons are often deranged
from idleness and glut and this fact must be played upon, even
created. The normal health and wildness of a rich man's son must
be twisted and perverted and explained into neurosis and then,
assisted by a timely administration of drugs or violence, turned
into criminality or insanity. This brings at once someone in "mental
healing" into confidential contact with the family and from this
point on the very most must then be made of that contact.
Communism could best succeed if at the side of every
rich or influential man there could be placed a psychopolitical
operator, an undoubted authority in the field of "mental healing"
who could then by his advice or through the medium of a wife or
daughter by his guided options direct the optimum policy to embroil
or upset the economic policies of the country and, when the time
comes to do away forever with the rich or influential man, to
administer the proper drug or treatment to bring about his complete
demise in an institution as a patient or dead, as a suicide.
Planted beside a country's powerful persons the
psychopolitical operator can also guide other policies to the
betterment of our battle.
The Capitalist does not know the definition of war.
He things of war as attack with force performed by soldiers and
machines. He does not know that a more effective if somewhat longer
w ar can be fought with bread or, in our case, with drugs and
the wisdom of our art. The Capitalist has never won a war in truth.
The psychopolitician is having little trouble winning this one.
CHAPTER
IV
STATE GOALS FOR THE INDIVIDUAL
AND MASSES
Just as we would discover an individual to be ill,
whose organs, each one, had a different goal from the rest, so
we discover the individuals and the State to be ill where goals
are not rigorously codified and enforced.
There are those who, in less enlightened times,
gave Man to believe that goals should be personally sought and
held, and that, indeed, Man's entire impulse toward higher things
stemmed from Freedom. We must remember that the same peoples who
embraced this philosophy also continued in Man the myth of spiritual
existence.
All goals proceed from duress. Life is a continuous
escape. Without force and threat, there can be no striving. Without
pain, there can be no desire to escape from pain. Without the
threat of punishment, there can be no gain. Without duress and
command, there can be no alignment of bodily functions. Without
rigorous and forthright control, there ca be no accomplished goals
for the State.
Goals of the State should be formulated by the State
for the obedience and concurrence of the individuals within that
State. A State without goals so formulated is a sick State. A
State without the power and forthright wish to enforce its goals
is a sick State.
When an order is issued by the Communist State,
and is not obeyed, a sickness will be discovered to ensue. Where
obedience fails, the masses suffer.
State goals depend upon loyalty and obedience for
their accomplishment. When one discovers a State goal to be interpreted,
one discovers inevitably that there has been an interposition
of self-willedness, of greed, of idleness, or of rugged individualism
and self-centered initiative.The interruption of a State goal
will be discovered as having been interrupted by a person whose
disloyalty and disobedience is the direct result of his own mis-alignment
with life.
It is not always necessary to remove the individual.
It is possible to remove his self-willed tendencies to the improvement
of the goals and gains of the whole. The technologies of Psychopolitics
are graduated upon the scale which starts somewhat above the removal
of the individual himself, upward toward the removal only of those
tendencies which bring about his lack of co-operation.
It is not enough for the State to have goals. These
goals, once put forward, depend upon their completion, upon the
loyalty and obedience of the workers. These, engaged for the most
part, in hard labors, have little time for idle speculation, which
is good. But, above them, unfortunately, there must be foremen
of one or another position, and one of whom might have sufficient
idleness and lack of physical occupation to cause some disaffecting
independency in his conduct and behaviour.
Psychopolitics remedies this tendency toward disaffection
when it exceeds the common persuasions of the immediate superiors
of the person in question.
CHAPTER
V
AN EXAMINATION OF LOYALTIES
If loyalty is so important in the economic and
social structure, it is necessary to examine it further as itself.
In the field of Psychopolitics, loyalty means simply
'alignment.' It means, more fully, alignment with the goals of
the Communist State. Disloyalty means entirely mis-alignment,
and more broadly, mis-alignment with the goals of the Communist
State.
When we consider that the goals of the Communist
State are to the best possible benefit of the masses, we can see
that disloyalty, as a term, can embrace Democratic alignment.
Loyalty to persons not communistically indoctrinated would be
quite plainly a mis-alignment.
The cure of disloyalty is entirely contained in
the principles of alignment. All that is necessary to do, where
disloyalty is encountered, is to align the purposes of the individual
toward the goals of Communism, and it will be discovered that
a great many circumstances hitherto distasteful in his existence
will cease to exist.
A heart, or a kidney in rebellion against the remainder
of the organism is being disloyal to the remainder of the organism.
To cure the heart or kidney it is actually only necessary to bring
its activities into alignment with the remainder of the body.
The technologies of Psychopolitics adequately demonstrate
the workability of this. Mild shock of the electric variety can,
and does, produce the re-cooperation of a rebellious body organ.
It is the shock and punishment of surgery which, in the main,
accomplishes the re-alignment of a disaffected portion of the
body, rather than the surgery itself. It is the bombardment of
X-Rays, rather than the therapeutic value of X-Rays which causes
some disaffected organ to once again turn its attention to the
support of the general organism.
While it is not borne out that electric shock has
any therapeutic value, so far as making the individual more sane,
it is adequately brought out that its punishment value will create
in the patient a greater co-operative attitude. Brain surgery
has no statistical data to recommend it beyond its removal of
the individual personality from amongst the paths of organs which
were not permitted to co-operate. These two Russian developments
have never pretended to alter the state of sanity. They are only
effective and workable in introducing an adequate punishment mechanism
to the personality to make it cease and desist from its courses
and egotistical direction of the anatomy itself. It is the violence
of the electric shock and the surgery which is useful in subduing
the recalcitrant personality, which is all that stands in the
road of the masses or the State. It is occasionally to be discovered
that the removal of the preventing personality by shock and surgery
then permits the regrowth and re-establishment of organs which
have been rebelled against by that personality. In what a well-regulated
state is composed of organisms, not personalities, the use of
electric shock and brain surgery in Psychopolitics is clearly
demonstrated.
The changing of loyalty consists, in its primary
step, of the eradication of existing loyalties. This can be done
in one of two ways. First, by demonstrating that previously existing
loyalties have brought about perilous physical circumstances,
such as imprisonment, lack of recognition, duress, or privation,
and second by eradicating the personality itself.
The first is accomplished by a steady and continuous
indoctrination of the individual in the belief that his previous
loyalties have been granted to an unworthy source. One of the
primary instances in this is creating circumstances which apparently
derive from the target of his loyalties, so as to rebuff the individual.
As part of this there is the creation of a state of mind in the
individual, by actually placing him under duress, and then furnishing
him with false evidence to demonstrate that the target of his
previous loyalties is, itself, the course of the duress. Another
portion of this same method consists of defaming or degrading
the individual whose loyalties are to be changed to the target
of his loyalties, i.e., superiors or government, to such a degree
that this target, at length, actually does hold the individual
in disrepute, and so does rebuff him and serve to convince him
that his loyalties have been misplaced. These are the milder methods,
but have proven extremely effective. The greatest drawback in
their practice is that they require time and concentration, the
manufacture of false evidence, and a psychopolitical operator's
time.
In moments of expediency, of which there are many,
the personality itself can be rearranged by shock, surgery, duress,
privation, and in particular, that best of psychopolitical techniques,
implantation, with the technologies of neo-hypnotism. Such duress
must have in its first part a defamation of the loyalties, and
in its second, the implantation of new loyalties. A good and experienced
psychopolitical operator, working under the most favorable circumstances,
can, by the use of psychopolitical technologies, alter the loyalties
of an individual so deftly that his own companions will not suspect
that they have changed. This, however, requires considerably more
finesse than is usually necessary to the situation. Mass neo-hypnotism
can accomplish more or less the same results when guided by an
experienced psychopolitical operator. An end goal in such a procedure
would be the alteration of the loyalties of an entire nation in
a short period of time by mass neo-hypnotism, a thing which has
been effectively accomplished among the less-usable states of
Russia.
It is adequately demonstrated that loyalty is entirely
lacking in that mythical commodity known as 'spiritual quality.'
Loyalty is entirely a thing of dependence, economic or mental,
and can be changed by the crudest implementations. Observation
of workers in their factories or fields demonstrates that they
easily grant loyalty to a foreman or a woman, and then as easily
abandon it and substitute another individual, revulsing, at the
same time, toward the person to whom loyalty was primarily granted.
The queasy insecurity of the masses in Capitalistic nations finds
this more common than in an enlightened State, such as Russia.
In Capitalistic states, dependencies are so craven, wants and
privations are so exaggerated, that loyalty is entirely without
ethical foundation and exists only in the realm of dependency,
duress, or demand.
It is fortunate that Communism so truly approaches
an ideal state of mind, for this brings a certain easiness into
any changing loyalties, since all other philosophies extant and
practiced on Earth today are degraded and debased, compared to
Communism. It is then with a certain security that a psychopolitical
operator functions, for he knows that he can change the loyalty
of an individual to a more ideal level by reason alone, and only
expediency makes it necessary to employ the various shifts of
psychopolitical technology. Any man who cannot be persuaded into
Communist rationale is, of course, to be regarded as somewhat
less than sane, and it is, therefore completely justified to use
the techniques of insanity upon the non-Communist.
In order to change loyalty it is necessary to establish
first the existing loyalties of the individual. The task is made
very simple in view of the fact that Capitalistic and Fascistic
nations have no great security in the loyalty of their subjects.
And it may be found that the loyalties of the subjects, as we
call any person against whom psychopolitical technology is to
be exerted, are already too faint to require eradication. It is
generally only necessary to persuade with the rationale and overwhelming
reasonability of Communism to have the person grant his loyalty
to the Russian State. However, regulated only by the importance
of the subject, no great amount of time should be expended upon
the individual, but emotional duress, or electric shock, or brain
surgery should be resorted to, should Communist propaganda persuasion
fail. In a case of a very important person, it may be necessary
to utilize the more delicate technologies of Psychopolitics so
as to place the per son himself, and his associates, in ignorance
of the operation. In this case a simple implantation is used,
with a maximum duress and command value. Only the most skilled
psychopolitical operator should be employed on such a project,
as in this case of the very important person, for a bungling might
disclose the tampering with his mental processes. It is much more
highly recommended, if there is any doubt whatever about the success
of an operation against an important person, to select out as
a psychopolitical target persons i his vicinity in whom he is
emotionally involved. His wife or children normally furnish the
best targets, and these can be operated against without restraint.
In securing the loyalty of a very important person one must place
at his side a constant pleader who enters a sexual or familial
chord into the situation on the side of Communism. It may not
be necessary to make a Communist out of the wife, or the children,
or one of the children, but it might prove efficacious to do so.
In most instances, however, this is not possible. By the use of
various drugs, it is, in this modern age, and well within the
realm of psychopolitical reality, entirely too easy to bring about
a state of severe neurosis or insanity in the wife or children,
and thus pass them, with full consent of the important person,
and the government in which he exists, or the bureau in which
he is operating, into the hands of a psychopolitical operator,
who then in his own laboratory, without restraint or fear of investigation
or censor, can, with electric shock, surgery, sexual attack, drugs,
or other useful means, degrade or entirely alter the personality
of a family member, and create in that person a psychopolitical
slave subject who, then, on command or signal, will perform outrageous
actions, thus discrediting the important person, or will demand,
on a more delicate level, that certain measures be taken by the
important person, which measures are, of course, dictated by the
psychopolitical operator.
Usually when the party has no real interest in the
activities of decisions of the important person, but merely wishes
to remove him from effective action, the attention of the psychopolitical
operator need not to be so intense, and the person need only be
passed into the hands of some unwitting mental practitioner, who
taught as he is by psychopolitical operators, will bring about
sufficient embarrassment.
When the loyalty of an individual cannot be swerved,
and where the opinion, weight, or effectiveness of the individual
stands firmly in the road of Communist goals, it is usually best
to occasion a mild neurosis in the person by any available means,
and then, having carefully given him a history of mental imbalance,
to see to it that he disposes of himself by suicide, or by bringing
about his demise in such a way as to resemble suicide. Psychopolitical
operators have handled such situations skillfully tens of thousands
of times, within and without Russia.
It is a firm principle of Psychopolitics that the
person to be destroyed must be involved at first or second hand
in the stigma of insanity, and must have been placed in contact
with psychopolitical operators or persons trained by them, with
a maximum amount of tumult and publicity. The stigma of insanity
is properly placed at the door of such persons' reputations and
is held there firmly by bringing about irrational acts, either
on his own part or in his vicinity. Such an activity can be classified
as a partial destruction of alignment, and if this destruction
is carried forward to its furthest extent the mis-alignment on
the subject of all loyalties can be considered to be complete,
and alignment on new loyalties can be embarked upon safely. By
bringing about insanity or suicide on the part of the wife of
an important political personage, a sufficient mis-alignment has
been instigated to change his attitude. And this, carried forward
firmly, or assisted by psychopolitical implantation can begin
the rebuilding of his loyalties, but now slanted in a more proper
and fitting direction.
Another reason for the alignment of psychopolitical
activities with the mis-alignment of insanity in that insanity,
itself, is a despised and disgraced state, and anything connected
with it is lightly viewed. Thus, a psychopolitical operator, working
in the vicinity of an insane person, can refute and disprove any
accusations made against him by demonstrating that the family
itself is tainted with mental imbalance. This is surprisingly
effective in Capitalistic countries where insanity is so thoroughly
feared that no one would dream of investigating any circumstances
in its vicinity. Psychopolitical propaganda works constantly and
must work constantly to increase and build up this aura of mystery
surrounding insanity, and must emphasize the horribleness of insanity
in order to excuse non-therapeutic actions taken against the insane.
Particularly in Capitalistic countries, an insane person has no
rights under law. No person who is insane may hold property. No
person who is insane may testify. Thus, we have an excellent road
along which we can travel toward our certain goal and destiny.
Entirely by bringing about public conviction that
the sanity of a person is in question, it is possible to discount
and eradicate all of the goals and activities of that person.
By demonstrating the insanity of a group, or even a government,
it is possible, then, to cause its people to disavow it. By magnifying
the general human reaction to insanity, through keeping the subject
of insanity, itself, forever before the public eye, and then,
by utilizing this reaction by causing a revulsion on the part
of a populace against its leaders or leaders, it is possible to
stop any government or movement.
It is important to know that the entire subject
of loyalty is thus as easily handled as it is. One of the first
and foremost missions of the psychopolitician is to make an attack
upon Communism and insanity synonymous. It should become the definition
of insanity, of the paranoid variety, that "A paranoid believes
he is being attacked by Communists." Thus, at once the support
of the individual so attacking Communism will fall away and wither.
Instead of executing national leaders, suicide for
them should be arranged under circumstances which question their
demise. In this way we can select out all opposition to the Communist
extension into the social orders of the world, and render populace
who would oppose us leaderless, and bring about a state of chaos
or mis-alignment into which we can thrust, with great simplicity,
the clear and forceful doctrines of Communism.
The cleverness of our attack in this field of Psychopolitics
is adequate to avoid the understanding of the layman and the usual
stupid official, and by operating entirely under the banner of
authority, with the oft-repeated statement that the principles
of psychotherapy are too devious for common understanding, an
entire revolution can be effected without the suspicion of a populace
until it is an accomplished fact.
As insanity is the maximum mis-alignment, it can
be grasped to be the maximum weapon in severance of loyalties
to leaders and old social orders. Thus, it is of the utmost importance
that psychopolitical operative infiltrate the healing arts of
a nation marked for conquest, and bring that quarter continuous
pressure against the population and the government until at last
the conquest is affected. This is the subject and goal of Psychopolitics,
itself.
In rearranging loyalties we must have a command
of their values. In the animal the first loyalty is to himself.
This is destroyed by demonstrating errors to him, showing him
that he does not remember, cannot act or does not trust himself.
The second loyalty is to his family unit, his parents and brothers
and sisters. This is destroyed by making a family unit economically
non-dependent, by lessening the value of marriage, by making an
easiness of divorce and by raising the children whenever possible
by the State. The next loyalty is to his friends and local environment.
This is destroyed by lowering his tru st and bringing about reportings
upon him allegedly by his fellows or the town or village authorities.
The next is to the State and this, for the purposes of Communism,
is the only loyalty which should exist once the state is founded
as a Communist State. To destroy loyalty to the State all manner
of forbidding for youth must be put into effect so as to disenfranchise
them as members of the Capitalist state and, by promises of a
better lot under Communism, to gain their loyalty to a Communist
movement.
Denying a Capitalist country easy access to courts,
bringing about and supporting propaganda to destroy the home,
creating and continuous juvenile delinquentcy, forcing upon the
state all manner of practices to divorce the child from it will
in the end create chaos necessary to Communism.
Under the saccharine guise of assistance to them,
rigorous child labor laws are the best means to deny the child
any right in society. By refusing to let him earn, by forcing
him into unwanted dependence upon a grudging parent, by making
certain in other channels that the parent is never in other than
economic stress, the child can be driven in his teens into revolt.
Delinquency will ensue.
By making readily available drugs of various kinds,
by giving the teen-ager alcohol, by praising his wildness, by
stimulating him with sex literature and advertising to him or
her practices as taught at the Sexpol, the psychopolitical operator
can create the necessary attitude of chaos, idleness and worthlessness
into which can then be cast the solution which will give the teen
ager complete freedom everywhere --Communism.
Should it be possible to continue conscription
beyond any reasonable time by promoting unpopular wars and other
means, the draft can always stand as a further barrier to the
progress of youth in life, destroying any immediate hope to participate
in his nation's civil life.
By these means the patriotism of youth for their
Capitalistic flag can be dulled to a point where they are no longer
dangerous as soldiers. While this might require many decades to
effect, Capitalisms short term view will never envision the lengths
across which we can plan.
If we could effectively kill the national pride
and patriotism of just one generation, we will have won that country.
Therefore, there must be continual propaganda abroad to undermine
the loyalty of the citizens in general and the teen-ager in particular.
The role of the psychopolitical operator in this
is very strong. He can, from his position as an authority on the
mind, advise all manner of destructive measures. He can teach
the lack of control of this child at home. He can instruct, in
an optimum situation, the entire nation in how to handle children
-- and instruct them so that the children, given no control, given
no real home, can run wildly about with no responsibility for
their nation or themselves.
The mis-alignment of the loyalty of youth to a Capitalistic
nation sets the proper stage for a realignment of their loyalties
toward Communism. Creating a greed for drugs, sexual misbehavior
and uncontrolled freedom and presenting this to them as a benefit
of Communism, will with ease, bring about our alignment.
In the case of strong leaders amongst youthful groups,
a psychopolitical operator can work in many ways to use or discard
that leadership. If it is to be used, the character of a girl
or boy must be altered carefully into criminal channels and a
control by blackmail, or other means, must be maintained. But
where the leadership is not susceptible, where it resists all
persuasions and might become dangerous to our Cause, no pains
must be spared to direct the attention of the authorities to that
person and to harass him in one way or another until he can come
into the hands of the juvenile authorities. When this has been
effected, it can be hoped that a psychopolitical operator, by
reason of child advisor status, can, in the security of the jail
and cloaked by processes of law, destroy the sanity of that person.
Particularly brilliant scholars, athletes and youth group leaders
must be handled in either one of these two ways.
In the matter of guiding the activities of juvenile
courts, the psychopolitical operator entertains here one of his
easier tasks. A Capitalistic nation is so filled with injustice
in general that a little more passes without comment. In juvenile
courts there are always persons with strange appetites whether
these be judges or police man or women. If such do not exist,
they can be created. By making available to them young girls or
boys in the "security" of the jail or the detention home and by
appearing with flash cameras or witnesses one becomes equiped
with a whip adequate to direct all the future decisions of that
person when these are needed.
The handling of youth cases by courts should be
led further and further away from law and further and further
into "mental problems" until the entire nation thinks of "mental
problems" instead of criminals. This places vacancies everywhere
in the courts, in the offices of district attorneys, or police
staffs which could then be filled with psychopolitical operators
and these become the judges of the land by their influence and
into their hands comes the total control of the criminal, without
whose help a revolution cannot ever be accomplished.
By stressing this authority over the problems of
youth and adults in courts one day the demand for psychopolitical
operators could become such that even the armed services will
use "authorities on the mind" to work their various justices and
when this occurs, the armed forces of the nation then enter into
our hands as solidly as if we commanded them ourselves. With the
slight bonus of having thus a skilled interrogator near every
technician or handler of secret war apparatus, the country, in
even of revolution, as did Germany in 1918 and 1919 will find
itself immobilized by its own Army and Navy fully and entirely
in Communist hands.
Thus the subject of loyalties and their re-alignment
is in fact the subject of non-armed conquest of an enemy.
