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 Monarchical 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 other 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 war
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 independence 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 trust 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 delinquency, 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 \96 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 \96 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 equipped 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. |

CHAPTER VI
THE GENERAL SUBJECT OF OBEDIENCE
Obedience is the result of force.
Everywhere we look in the history of the Earth we
discover that obedience to new rulers has come about entirely through
the demonstration on the part of those rulers of greater force than was
to be discovered in the old ruler. A population overridden, conquered by
war, is obedient to its conqueror. It is obedient to its conqueror
because its conqueror has exhibited more force.
Concurrent with force is brutality, for there are
human considerations involved which also represent force. The most
barbaric, unrestrained, brutal use of force, if carried far enough,
invokes obedience. Savage force, sufficiently long displayed toward any
individual, will bring about his concurrence with any principle or
order.
Force is the antithesis of humanizing actions. It is
so synonymous in the human mind with savageness, lawlessness, brutality,
and barbarism, that it is only necessary to display an inhuman attitude
toward people, to be granted by those people the possession of force.
Any organization which has the spirit and courage to
display inhumanity, savageness, brutality, and an uncompromising lack of
humanity, will be obeyed. Such a use of force is, itself, the essential
ingredient of greatness. We have to hand no less an example to our
great Communist Leaders, who, in moments of duress and trial, when faced
by Czarist rule, continued over the heads of an enslaved populace, yet
displayed sufficient courage never to stay their hands in the execution
of the conversion of the Russian State to Communist rule.
If you would have obedience you must have no
compromise with humanity. If you would have obedience you must make it
clearly understood that you have no mercy. Man is an animal. He
understands, in the final analysis, only those things which a brute
understands.
As an example of this, we find an individual refusing
to obey and being struck. His refusal to obey is now less vociferous.
He is struck again, and his resistance is lessened once more. He is
hammered and pounded again and again, until, at length, his only thought
is direct and implicit obedience to that person from whom the force has
emanated. This is a proven principle. It is proven because it is the
main principle of Man, the animal, has used since his earliest
beginnings. It is the only principle which has been effective, the only
principle which has brought about a wide and continued belief. For it is
to our benefit that an individual who is struck again, and again, and
again from a certain source, will, at length, hypnotically believe
anything he is told by the source of the blows.
The stupidity of Western civilizations is best
demonstrated by the fact that they believe hypnotism is a thing of the
mind, of attention, and a desire for unconsciousness. This is not true.
Only when a person has been beaten, punished, and mercilessly hammered,
can hypnotism upon him be guaranteed in its effectiveness. It is stated
by Western authorities on hypnosis that only some twenty percent of the
people are susceptible to hypnotism. This statement is very untrue.
Given enough punishment, all of the people in any time and place are
susceptible to hypnotism. In other words, by adding force, hypnotism is
made uniformly effective. Where unconsciousness could not be induced by
simple concentration upon the hypnotist, unconsciousness can be induced
by drugs, by blows, by electric shock, and by other means. And where
unconsciousness cannot be induced so as to make an implantation or an
hypnotic command effective, it is only necessary to amputate the
functioning portions of the animal man's brain to render him null and
void and no longer a menace. Thus, we find that hypnotism is entirely
effective.
The mechanisms of hypnotism demonstrate clearly that
people can be made to believe in certain conditions, and even in their
environments or in politics, by the administration of force. Thus, it is
necessary for a psychopolitician to be an expert in the administration
of forces. Thus, he can bring about implicit obedience, not only on the
part of individual members of the populace, but on the entire populace
itself and its government. He need only take unto himself a sufficiently
savage role, a sufficiently uncompromising inhuman attitude, and he
will be obeyed and believed.
The subject of hypnotism is a subject of belief. What
can people be made to believe? They can be made to believe anything
which is administered to them with sufficient brutality and force. The
obedience of a populace is as good as they will believe.
Despicable religions, such as Christianity, knew
this. They knew that if enough faith could be brought into being a
populace could be enslaved by the Christian mockeries of humanity and
mercy, and thus could be disarmed. But one need not count upon this act
of faith to bring about a broad belief. One must only exhibit enough
force, enough inhumanity, enough brutality and savageness to create
implicit belief and therefore and thereby implicit obedience. As
Communism is a mater of belief, its study is a study of force.
The earliest Russian psychiatrists, pioneering this
science of psychiatry, understood thoroughly that hypnosis is induced by
acute fear. They discovered it could also be induced by shock of an
emotional nature, and also by extreme privation, as well as by blows and
drugs.
In order to induce a high state of hypnosis in an
individual, a group, or a population, an element of terror must always
be present on the part of those who would govern. The psychiatrist is
aptly suited to this role, for his brutalities are committed in the name
of science and are inexplicably complex, and entirely out of the view
of the human understanding. A sufficient popular terror of the
psychiatrist will, in itself, bring about insanity on the part of many
individuals. A psychopolitical operative, then, can, entirely cloaked
with authority, commence and continue a campaign of propaganda,
describing various "treatments" which are administered to the insane. He
can, in all of his literature and his books, list large numbers of
pretended cures by these means. But these "cures" need not actually
produce any recovery from a state of disturbance. As long as the
psychopolitical operative or his dupes are the only authorities as to
the difference between sanity and insanity, their word as to the
therapeutic value of such treatment will be the final word. No layman
would dare adventure to place judgement upon the state of sanity of an
individual who the psychiatrist has already declared insane. The
individual, himself, is unable to complain, and his family, as will be
covered later, is already discredited by the occurrence of insanity in
their midst. There must be no other adjudicators of insanity, otherwise
it could be disclosed that the brutalities practiced in the name of
treatment are not therapeutic.
A psychopolitical operative has no interest in
"therapeutic means" or "cures." The greater number of insane in the
country where he is operating, the larger number of the populace will
come under his view, and the greater will become his facilities. Because
the problem is apparently mounting into uncontrollable heights, he can
more and more operate in an atmosphere of emergency, which again excuses
his use of such treatments as electric shock, the pre-frontal lobotomy,
trans-orbital leucotomy, and other operations long-since practiced in
Russia on political prisoners.
It is to the interest of the psychopolitical
operative that the possibility of curing the insane be outlawed and
ruled out at all times. For the sake of obedience on the part of the
population and their general reaction, a level or brutality must, at all
costs, be maintained. Only in this way can the absolute judgement of
the psychopolitical operative as to the sanity or insanity of public
figures be maintained in complete belief. Using sufficient brutality
upon their patients, the public at large will come to believe utterly
anything they say about their patients. Furthermore, and much more
important, the field of the mind must be sufficiently dominated by th e
psychopolitical operative, so that whatever tenets of the mind are
taught they will be hypnotically believed. The psychopolitical
operative, having under his control all psychology classes in an area,
can thus bring about a complete reformation of the future leaders of a
country in their educational processes, and so prepare them for
Communism.
To be obeyed, once must be believed. If one is sufficiently believed, one will unquestioningly be obeyed.
When he is fortunate enough to obtain into his hands
anyone near to a political or important figure, this factor of obedience
becomes very important. A certain amount of fear or terror must be
engendered in the person under treatment so that this person will then
take immediate orders, completely and unquestioningly, from the
psychopolitical operative, and so be able to influence the actions of
that person who is to be reached.
Bringing about this state of mind on the part of a
population and its leaders \96 that a psychopolitical operative must, at
all times, be believed \96 could eventually be attended by very good
fortune. It is not too much to hope that psychopolitical operatives
would then, in a country such as the United States, become the very
intimate advisors to political figures, even to the point of advising
the entirety of a political party as to its actions in an election.
The long view is the important view. Belief is
engendered by a certain amount of fear and terror from an authoritative
level, and this will be followed by obedience.
The general propaganda which would best serve
Psychopolitics would be a continual insistence that certain
authoritative levels of healing, deemed this or that the correct
treatment of insanity. These treatments must always include a certain
amount of brutality. Propaganda should continue and stress the rising
incidence of insanity in a country. The entire field of human behaviour,
for the benefit of the country, can, at length, be broadened into
abnormal behaviour. Thus, anyone indulging in any eccentricity,
particularly the eccentricity of combatting psychopolitics, could be
silenced by the authoritative opinion on the part of a psychopolitical
operative that he is acting in an abnormal fashion. This, with some good
fortune, could bring the person into the hands of the psychopolitical
operative so as to forever more disable him, or to swerve his loyalties
by pain-drug hypnotism.
On the subject of obedience itself, the most optimum
obedience is unthinking obedience. The command gien must be obeyed
without any rationalizing on the part of the subject. The command must,
therefore, be implanted below the thinking process of the subject to be
influenced, and must react upon him in such a way as to bring no mental
alertness on his part.
It is in the interest of Psychopolitics that a
population be told that an hypnotized person will not do anything
against his actual will, will not commit immoral acts, and will not act
so as to endanger himself. While this may be true of light, parlour
hypnotism, it certainly is not true of commands implanted with the use
of electric shock, drugs, or heavy punishment. It is counted upon
completely that this will be discredited to the general public by
psychopolitical operatives, for if it were to be generally known that
individuals would obey commands harmful to themselves, and would commit
immoral acts while under the influence of deep hypnotic commands, the
actions of many people, working unknowingly in favor of Communism, would
be too-well understood. People acting under deep hypnotic commands
should be acting apparently of their own volition and out of their own
convictions.
The entire subject of psychopolitical hypnosis,
Psychopolitics in general, depends for its defense upon continual
protest from authoritative sources that such things are not possible.
And, should anyone unmask a psychopolitical operative, he should at once
declare the whole thing a physical impossibility, and use his
authoritative position to discount any accusation. Should any writings
of Psychopolitics come to view, it is only necessary to brand them a
hoax and laugh them out of countenance. Thus, psychopolitical activities
are easy to defend.
When psychopolitical activities have reached a
certain peak, from there on it is almost impossible to undo them, for
the population is already under the duress of obedience to the
psychopolitical operatives and their dupes. The ingredient of obedience
is important, for the complete belief in the psychopolitical operative
renders this statement cancelling any challenge about psychopolitical
operations irrefutable. The optimum circumstances would be to occupy
every position which would be consulted by officials on any question or
suspicion arising on the subject of Psychopolitics. Thus, a psychiatric
advisor should be placed near at hand in every government operation. As
all suspicions would then be referred to him, no action would ever be
taken, and the goal of Communism could be realized in that nation.
Psychopolitics depends, from the viewpoint of the
layman, upon its fantastic aspects. These are its best defense, but
above all these defenses is implicit obedience on the part of officials
and the general public, because of the character of the psychopolitical
operative in the field of healing. |

CHAPTER VII
ANATOMY OF STIMULUS-RESPONSE MECHANISMS OF MAN
Man is a stimulus-response animal. His
entire reasoning capabilities, even his ethics and morals, depends upon
stimulus-response machinery. This has long been demonstrated by such
Russians as Pavlov, and the principles have long been used in handling
the recalcitrant, in training children, and in bringing about a state of
optimum behaviour on the part of a population.
Having no independent will of his own, Man is easily
handled by stimulus-response mechanisms. It is only necessary to install
a stimulus into the mental anatomy of Man to have that stimulus
reactivate and respond any time an exterior command source calls it into
being.
The mechanisms of stimulus-response are easily
understood. The body takes pictures of every action in the environment
around the individual. When the environment includes brutality, terror,
shock, and other such activities, the mental image picture gained,
contains in itself all the ingredients of the environment. If the
individual, himself, was injured during the moment, the injury, itself,
will re manifest when called upon to respond by an exterior command
source.
As an example of this, if an individual is beaten,
and is told during the entirety of the beating that he must obey certain
officials, he will, in the future, feel the beginnings of the pain the
moment he begins to disobey. The installed pain, itself, reacts as a
policeman, for the experience of the individual demonstrates to him that
he cannot combat, and will receive pain from, certain officials.
The mind can become very complex in its stimulus
responses. As easily demonstrated in hypnotism, an entire chain of
commands, having to do with a great many complex actions, can be beaten,
shocked, or terrorized into a mind, and will there lie dormant until
called into view by some similarity in the circumstances of the
environment to the incident of punishment.
The stimulus we call the "incident of punishment"
where the response mechanism need only contain small part of the
stimulus to call into view the mental image picture, and cause it to
exert gainst the body, the pain sequence. So long as the individual
obeys the picture, or follows the commands of he stimulus implantation
he is free from pain.
The behaviour of children is regulated in this
fashion in every civilized country. The father, finding himself unable
to bring about immediate obedience and training on the part of his
child, resorts to physical violence, and after administering punishment
of a physical nature to the child on several occasions, is gratified to
experience complete obedience on the part of the child each time the
father speaks. In that parents are wont to be lenient with their
children, they seldom administer sufficient punishment to bring about
entirely optimum obedience. The ability of the organism to withstand
punishment is very great. Complete and implicit response can be gained
only by stimuli sufficiently brutal to actually injure the organism. The
Kossack method of breaking wild horses is a useful example. The horse
will not restrain itself or take any of its rider's commands. The rider,
wishing to break it, mounts, and takes a flask of strong Vodka, and
smashes it between the horse's ears. The horse, struck to its knees, its
yes filled with alcohol, mistaking the dampness for blood, instantly
and thereafter gives its attention to the rider and never needs further
breaking. Difficulty in breaking horses is only occasioned when light
punishments are administered. There is some mawkish sentimentality about
"breaking the spirit," but what is desired here is an obedient horse,
and sufficient brutality brings about an obedient horse.
The stimulus-response mechanisms of the body are such
that the pain and the command subdivide so as to counter each other.
The mental image picture of the punishment will not become effective
upon the individual unless the command content is disobeyed. It is
pointed out in many early Russian writings that this is a survival
mechanism. It has already been well and thoroughly used in the survival
of Communism.
It is only necessary to deliver into the organism a sufficient stimulus to gain an adequate response.
So long as the organism obeys the stimulus whenever
it is restimulated in the future, it does not suffer from the pain of
the stimulus. But should it disobey the command content of the stimulus,
the stimulus reacts to punish the individual. Thus, we have an optimum
circumstance, and one of the basic principles of Psychopolitics. A
sufficiently installed stimulus will thereafter remain as a police
mechanism within the individual to cause him to follow the commands and
directions given to him. Should he fail to follow these commands and
directions, the stimulus mechanism will go into action. As the commands
are there with the moment of duress, the commands themselves need never
be repeated, and if the individual were to depart thousands of miles
away from the psychopolitical operative, he will still obey the
psychopolitical operative, or, himself, become extremely ill and in
agony. These principles, built from the earliest days of Pavlov, by
constant and continuous Russian development, have, at last, become of
enormous use to us in our conquest. For less modern and well-informed
countries of Earth, lacking this mechanism, failing to understand it,
and coaxed into somnolence by our own psychopolitical operatives, who
discount and disclaim it, cannot avoid succumbing to it.
The body is less able to resist a stimulus if it has
insufficient food and is weary. Therefore, it is necessary to administer
all such stimuli to individuals when their ability to resist has been
reduced by privation and exhaustion. Refusal to let them sleep over many
days, denying them adequate food, then brings about an optimum state
for the receipt of a stimulus. If the person is then given an electrical
shock, and is told while the shock is in action that he must obey and
do certain things, he has no choice but to do them, or to re-experience,
because of his mental image picture of it, the electric shock. This
highly scientific and intensely workable mechanism cannot be
over-estimated in the practice of psychopolitics.
Drugging the individual produces an artificial
exhaustion, and if he is drugged, or shocked and beaten, and given a
string of commands, his loyalties, themselves, can be definitely
rearranged. This is P.D.H., or Pain-Drug Hypnosis.
The psychopolitical operative in training should be
thoroughly studied in the subject of hypnotism and post-hypnotic
suggestion. He should pay particular attention to the "forgetter
mechanism" aspect of hypnotism, which is to say, implantation in the
unconscious mind. He should note particularly that a person given a
command in a hypnotic state, and then told when still in that condition
to forget it, will execute it on a stimulus-response signal in the
environment after he has "awakened" from his hypnotic trance.
Having mastered these details fully, he should, by
practicing upon criminals and prisoners, or inmates available to him,
produce the hypnotic trance by drugs, and drive home post-hypnotic
suggestions by pain administered to the drugged person. He should then
study the reactions of the person when "awakened," and should give him
the stimulus-response signal which would throw into action the commands
given while in a drugged state of duress. By much practice he can then
learn the threshold dosages of various or additional drug shock
necessary to produce the optimum obedience to the commands. He should
also satisfy himself that the is no possible method known to Man --
there must be no possible method known to Man \96 of bringing the patient
to awareness of what has happened to him, keeping him in a state of
obedience and response while ignorant of its cause.
Using criminals and prisoners, the psychopolitical
operative in training should then experiment with duress in the absence
of privation, administering electric shocks, beatings, and
terror-inducing tactics, accompanied by the same mechanisms as those
employed in hypnotism, and watch the conduct of the person when no
longer under duress.
The operative in training should carefully remark
those who show a tendency to protest, so that he may recognize possible
recovery of memory of the commands implanted. Purely for his own
education, he should then satisfy himself as to the efficiency of brain
surgery in disabling the non-responsive prisoner.
The boldness of the psychopolitical operative can be
increased markedly by permitting persons who have been given pain-drug
hypnosis and who have demonstrated symptoms of rebelling or recalling
into the society to observe how the label of "insanity" discredits and
discounts the statements of the person.
Exercises in bringing about insanity seizures at
will, simply by demonstrating a signal to persons upon whom pain-drug
hypnosis has been used, and exercises in making the seizures come about
through talking to certain persons in certain places and times should
also be used.
Brain surgery, as developed in Russia, should also be
practiced by the psychopolitical operative in training, to give him
full confidence in 1) the crudeness with which it can be done, 2) the
certainty of erasure of the stimulus-response mechanism itself, 3) the
production of imbecility, idiocy, and dis-coordination on the part of
the patient, and 4) the small amount of comment which casualties in
brain surgery occasion.
Exercises in sexual attack on patients should be
practiced by the psychopolitical operative to demonstrate the inability
of the pain-drug hypnosis to recall the attack, while indoctrinating a
lust for further sexual activity on the part of the patient. Sex, in all
animals, is a powerful motivator, and is no less so in the animal Man,
and the occasioning of sexual liaison between females of a target family
and indicated males, under the control of the psychopolitical
operative, must be demonstrated to be possible with complete security
for the psychopolitical operative, thus giving into his hands and
excellent weapon for the breaking down of familial relations and
consequent public disgraces for the psychopolitical target.
Just as a dog can be trained, so can a man be
trained. Just as a horse can be trained, so can a man be trained. Sexual
lust, masochism, and any other desirable perversion can be induced by
pain-drug hypnosis and the benefit of the Psychopolitics.
The changes of loyalties, allegiances, and sources of
command can be occasioned easily by psychopolitical technologies, and
these should be practiced and understood by the psychopolitical
operative before he begins to tamper with psychopolitical targets of
magnitude.
The actual simplicity of the subject of pain-drug
hypnosis, the use of electric shock, drugs, insanity-producing
injections, and other material, should be masked entirely by technical
nomenclature, the protest of benefit to the patient, by an authoritarian
pose and position, and by carefully cultivating governmental positions
in the country to be conquered.
Although the psychopolitical operative working in
universities where he can direct the curricula of psychology classes is
often tempted to teach some of the principles of Psychopolitics to the
susceptible students in the psychology classes, he must be thoroughly
enjoined to limit his information in psychology classes to the
transmittal of the tenets of Communism under the guise of psychology,
and must limit his activities in bringing about a state of mind on the
part of the students where they will accept Communist tenets as those of
their own action and as modern scientific principles. The
psychopolitical operative must not, at any time, educate students fully
in stimulus-response mechanisms, and must not impart to them, save those
who will become his fellow workers,the exact principles of
Psychopolitics. It is not necessary to do so, and it is dangerous. |

CHAPTER VIII
DEGRADATION, SHOCK AND ENDURANCE
Degradation and conquest are companions.
In order to be conquered, a nation must be degraded,
either by acts of war, by being overrun, by being forced into
humiliating treaties of peace, or by the treatment of her populace under
the armies of the conqueror. However, degradation can be accomplished
much more insidiously and much more effectively by consistent and
continual defamation.
Defamation is the best and foremost weapon of
Psychopolitics on the broad field. Continual and constant degradation of
national leaders, national institutions, national practices, and
national heroes must be systematically carried out, but this is the
chief function of the Communist Party Members, in general, not the
psychopolitician.
The realm of defamation and degradation, of the
psychopolitician, is Man himself. By attacking the character and morals
of Man himself, and by bringing about, through contamination of youth, a
general degraded feeling, command of the populace is facilitated to a
very marked degree.
There is a curve of degradation which leads downward
to a point where the endurance of an individual is almost at end, and
any sudden action toward him will place him in a state of shock.
Similarly, a soldier held prisoner can be abused, denied, defamed, and
degraded until the slightest motion on the part of his captors will
cause him to flinch. Similarly, the slightest word on the part of his
captors will cause him to obey, or vary his loyalties and beliefs. Given
sufficient degradation, a prisoner can be caused to murder his fellow
countrymen in the same stockade. Experiments on German prisoners have
lately demonstrated that only after seventy days of filthy food, little
sleep, and nearly untenable quarters, that the least motion toward the
prisoner would bring about a state of shock beyond his endurance
threshold, and would cause him to hypnotically receive anything said to
him. Thus, it is possible, in an entire stockade of prisoners, to the
number of thousands, to being about a state of complete servile
obedience, and without the labor of personally addressing each one, to
pervert their loyalties and implant in them adequate commands to insure
their future conduct, even when released to their own people.
By lowering the endurance of a person, a group, or a
nation, and by constant degradation and defamation, it is possible to
induce, thus, a state of shock which will receive adequately any command
given.
The first thing to be degraded in any nation is the
state of Man, himself. Nations which have high ethical tone are
difficult to conquer. Their loyalties are hard to shake, their
allegiance to their leaders is fanatical, and what they usually call
their spiritual integrity cannot be violated by duress. It is not
efficient to attack a nation in such a frame of mind. It is the basic
purpose of Psychopolitics to reduce that state of mind to a point where
it can be ordered and enslaved. Thus, the first target is Man, himself.
He must be degraded from a spiritual being to an animalistic reaction
pattern. He must think of himself as an animal, capable only of
animalistic reactions. He must no longer think of himself, or of his
fellows, as capable of "spiritual endurance," or nobility.
The best approach toward degradation in its first
stages is the propaganda of "scientific approach" to Man. Man must be
consistently demonstrated to be a mechanism without individuality, and
it must be educated into a populace under attack that Man's
individualistic reactions are the product of mental derangement. The
populace must be brought into the belief that every individual within it
who rebels in any way, shape, or form against the efforts and
activities to enslave the whole, must be considered to be a deranged
person whose eccentricities are neurotic and insane, and who must have
at once the treatment of a psychopolitician.
An optimum condition in such a program of degradation
would address itself to the military forces of the nation, and bring
them rapidly away from any other belief than the disobedient one must be
subjected to "mental treatment." An enslavement of a population can
fail only if these rebellious individuals are left to exert their
individual influences upon their fellow citizens, sparking them into
rebellion, calling into account their nobilities and freedoms. Unless
these restless individuals are stamped out and given into the hands of
psychopolitical operatives early in the conquest, there will be nothing
but trouble as the conquest continues.
The officials of the government, students, readers,
partakers of entertainment, must all be indoctrinated, by whatever
means, into the complete belief that the restless, the ambitions, the
natural leaders, are suffering from environmental maladjustments, which
can only be healed by recourse to psychopolitical operatives in the
guise of mental healers.
By thus degrading the general belief in the status of
Man it is relatively simple, with co-operation from the economic
salients being driven into the country, to drive citizens apart, one
from another, to bring about a question of the wisdom of their own
government, and to cause them to actively beg for enslavement.
The educational programs of Psychopolitics must, at
every hand, seek out the levels of youth who will become the leaders in
the country's future, and educate them into the belief of the
animalistic nature of Man. This must be made fashionable. They must be
taught to frown upon ideas, upon individual endeavor. They must be
taught, above all things, that the salvation of Man is to be found only
by his adjusting thoroughly to this environment.
This educational program in the field of
Psychopolitics, can best be followed by bringing about a compulsory
training in some subject such as psychology or other mental practice,
and ascertaining that each broad program of psychopolitical training be
supervised by a psychiatrist who is a trained psychopolitical operative.
As it seems in foreign nations that the church is the
most ennobling influence, each and every branch and activity of each
and every church, must, one way or another, be discredited. Religion
must become unfashionable by demonstrating broadly, through
psychopolitical indoctrination, that the soul is non-existent, and that
Man is an animal. The lying mechanisms of Christianity lead men to
foolishly brave deeds. By teaching them that there is a life here-after,
the liability of courageous acts, while living, is thus lessened. The
liability of any act must be markedly increased if a populace is to be
obedient. Thus, there must be no standing belief in the church, and the
power of the church must be denied at every hand.
The psychopolitical operative, in his program of
degradation, should at all times bring into question any family which is
deeply religious, and, should any neurosis or insanity be occasioned in
that family, to blame and hold responsible their religious connections
for the neurotic or psychotic condition. Religion must be made
synonymous with neurosis and psychosis. People who are deeply religious
would be less and less held responsible for their own sanity, and should
more and more be relegated to the ministrations of psychopolitical
operatives.
By perverting the institutions of a nation and
bringing about a general degradation, by interfering with the economics
of a nation to the degree that privation and depression come about, only
minor shocks will be necessary to produce, on the populace as a whole,
an obedient reaction or an hysteria. Thus, the mere threat of war, the
mere threat of aviation bombings, could cause the population to sue
instantly for peace. It is a long and arduous road for the
psychopolitical operative to achieve this state of mind on the part of
the whole nation, but no more than twenty or thirty years should be
necessary in the entire program. Having to hand, as we do, weapons with
which to accomplish the goal. |

CHAPTER IX
THE ORGANIZATION OF MENTAL HEALTH CAMPAIGNS
Psychopolitical operatives should at all
times be alert to the opportunity to organize "for the betterment of the
community" mental health clubs or groups. By thus inviting the
co-operation of the population as a whole in mental health programs, the
terrors of mental aberration can be disseminated throughout the
populace. Furthermore, each one of these mental health groups, properly
guided, can bring, at last, legislative pressure against the government
to secure adequately the position of the psychopolitical operative, and
to obtain for him government grants and facilities, thus bringing a
government to finance its own downfall.
Mental health organizations must carefully delete
from their ranks anyone actually proficient in the handling or treatment
of mental health. Thus must be excluded priests, ministers, actually
trained psychoanalysts, good hypnotists, or trained Dianeticists. These,
with some cognizance on the subject of mental aberration and its
treatment, and with some experience in observing the mentally deranged,
if allowed frequency within institutions, and if permitted to receive
literature, would, sooner or later, become suspicious of the activities
engaged upon by the psychopolitical operative. These must be defamed and
excluded as "untrained," "unskillful," "quacks," or "perpetrators of
hoaxes."
No mental health movement with actual goals of mental
therapy should be continued in existence in any nation. For instance,
the use of Chinese acupuncture in the treatment of mental and physical
derangement must, in China, be stamped out and discredited thoroughly,
as it has some efficacy, and, more importantly, its practitioners
understand, through long conversation with it, many of the principles of
actual mental health and aberration.
In the field of mental health, the psychopolitician
must occupy, and continue to occupy, through various arguments, the
authoritative position on the subject. There is always the danger that
problems of mental health may be resolved by some individual or group,
which might then derange the program of the psychopolitical operative in
his mental health clubs.
City officials, socialites, and other unknowing
individuals, on the subject of mental health, should be invited to full
co-operation in the activity of mental health groups. But the entirety
of this activity should be to finance better facilities for the
psychopolitical practitioner. To these groups it must be continually
stressed that the entire subject of mental illness is so complex that
none of them, certainly, could understand any part of it. Thus, the club
should be kept on a social and financial level.
Where groups interested in the health of the
community have already been formed, they should be infiltrated and taken
over, and if this is not possible, they should be discredited and
debarred, and the officialdom of the area should be invited to stamp
them out as dangerous.
When a hostile group dedicated to mental health is
discovered, the psychopolitician should have recourse to the mechanisms
of peyote, mescaline, and later drugs which cause temporary insanity. He
should send persons, preferably those well under his control, into the
mental health group, whether Christian Science or Dianetics or faith
preachers to demonstrate their abilities upon this new person. These, in
demonstrating their abilities, will usually act with enthusiasm. Midway
in the course of their treatment, a quiet injection of peyote,
mescaline, or other drug, or an electric shock, will produce the
symptoms of insanity in the patient which has been sent to the target
group. The patient thus demonstrating momentary insanity should be
immediately be reported to the police and taken away to some area of
incarceration managed by psychopolitical operatives, and so placed out
of site. Officialdom will thus come into a belief that this group drives
individuals insane by their practices, and the practices of the group
will them be despised and prohibited by law.
The values of a widespread mental health organization
are manifest when one realizes that any government can be forced to
provide facilities for psychopolitical operatives in the form of
psychiatric wards in all hospitals, in national institutions totally in
the hands of psychopolitical operatives, and in the establishment of
clinics where youth can be contacted and arranged more seemingly to the
purposes of Psychopolitics.
Such groups form a political force, which can then legalize any law or authority desired for the psychopolitical operative.
The securing of authority over such mental health
organizations is done mainly be appeal to education. A psychopolitical
operative should make sure that those psychiatrists he controls, those
psychologists whom he has under his orders, have been trained for an
excessively long period of time. The longer the training period which
can be required, the safer the psychopolitical program, since no new
group of practitioners can arise to disclose and dismay psychopolitical
programs. Furthermore, the groups themselves cannot hope to obtain any
full knowledge of the subject, not having behind them many, many years
of intensive training.
Vienna has been carefully maintained by
Psychopolitics, since it was the home of Psychoanalysis. Although our
activities have long been dispersed any of the gains made by Freudian
groups, and have taken over these groups, the proximity of Vienna to
Russia, where Psychopolitics is operating abroad, and the necessity "for
further study" by psychopolitical operatives in the birth-place of
Psychoanalysis, makes periodic contacts with headquarters possible. Thus
the word "psychoanalysis" must be stressed at all times, and must be
pretended to be a thorough part of the psychiatrist's training.
Psychoanalysis has the very valuable possession of a
vocabulary, and a workability which is sufficiently poor to avoid
recovery of psychopolitical implantations. It can be made fashionable
throughout mental health organizations, and by learning its patter, and
by believing they see some of its phenomena, the members of mental
health groups can believe themselves conversant with mental health.
Because its stress is sex, it is, itself, adequate defamation of
character, and serves the purposes of degradation well. Thus, in
organizing mental health groups, the literature furnished such groups
should be psychoanalytical in nature.
If a group of persons interested in suppressing
juvenile delinquency, in caring for the insane, and the promotion of
psychopolitical operatives and their actions can be formed in every
major city of a country under conquest, the success of a psychopolitical
program is assured, since these groups seem to represent a large
segment of the population. By releasing continuing propaganda on the
subject of dope addiction, homosexuality, and depraved conduct on the
part of the young, even the judges of a country can become suborned into
reacting violently against the youth of the country, thus mis-aligning
and aligning the support of youth.
The communication lines of psychopolitics, if such
mental health organizations can be well established, can thus run from
its most prominent citizens to its government. It is not too much to
hope that the influence of such groups could bring about a psychiatric
ward in every hospital in the land, and psychiatrists in every company
and regiment of the nation's army, and whole government institutes
manned entirely by psychopolitical operatives, into which ailing
government officials could be placed, to the advantage of the
psychopolitician.
If a psychiatric ward could be established in every
hospital in every city of a nation, it is certain that, at one time or
another, every prominent citizen of that nation could come under the
ministrations of psychopolitical operatives or their dupes.
The validation of psychiatric position in the armed
forces and security-minded institutions of the nation under conquest
could bring about a flow and fund of information unlike any other
program which could be conceived. If every pilot who flies a new plane
could come under the questioning of a psychopolitical operative, if the
compiler of every military action could thus come under the review of
psychopolitical operatives, the simplicity with which information can be
extracted by the use of certain drugs, without the after-knowledge of
the soldier, would entirely cripple any over action toward Communism. If
the nation could be educated into turning over to psychopolitical
operatives ever recalcitrant or rebellious soldier, it would lose its
best fighters. Thus, the advantage of mental health organizations can be
seen, for these, by exerting an apparent public pressure against the
government, can achieve these ends and goals.
The financing of a psychopolitical operation is
difficult unless it is done by the citizens and government. Although
vast sums of money can be obtained from private patients, and from
relatives who wish persons put away, it is, nevertheless, difficult to
obtain millions, unless the government itself is co-operating. The
co-operation of the government to obtain these vast sums of money is
best obtained by the organization of mental health groups composed of
leading citizens, and who bring their lobbying abilities to bear against
the nation's government. Thus can be financed many programs, which
might otherwise have to be laid aside by the psychopolitician.
The psychopolitical operative should bend consistent
and continual effort toward forming and continuing in action innumerable
mental health groups.
The psychopolitical operative should also spare no
expense in smashing out of existence, by whatever means, any actual
healing group, such as that of acupuncture, in China; such as Christian
Science, Dianetics and faith healing, in the United States; such as
Catholicism in Italy and Spain; and the practical psychological groups
of England. |

CHAPTER X CONDUCT UNDER FIRE
The psychopolitician may well find himself
under attack as an individual or a member of a group. He may be
attacked as a Communist, through some leak in the organization, he may
be attacked for malpractice. He may be attacked by the families of
people whom he has injured. In all cases his conduct of the situation
should be calm and aloof. He should have behind him the authority of
many years of training, and he should have participated fully in the
building of defense in field of insanity which give him the only
statement as to the conditions of the mind.
If he has not done his work well, hostile feeling
groups may expose an individual psychopolitician. These may call into
question the efficacy of psychiatric treatment such as shock, drugs, and
brain surgery. Therefore, the psychopolitical operative must have to
hand innumerable documents which assert enourmously encouraging figures
on the subject of recovery by reason of shock, brain surgery, drugs and
general treatment. Not one of these cases cited need be real, but they
should be documented and printed in such a fashion as to form excellent
court evidence.
When his allegiance is attacked, the psychopolitical
operative should explain his connection with Vienna on the grounds that
Vienna is the place of study for all important matters of the mind.
More importantly, he should rule into scorn, by
reason of his authority, the sanity of the person attacking him, and if
the psychopolitical archives of the country are adequate many defamatory
data can be unearthed and presented as a rebuttal.
Should anyone attempt to expose psychotherapy as a
psychopolitical activity, the best defense is calling into question the
sanity of the attacker. The next best defense is authority. The next
best defense is a validation of psychiatric practices in terms of long
and impressive figures. The next best defense is the actual removal of
the attacker by giving him, or them, treatment sufficient to bring about
a period of insanity for the duration of the trial. This, more than
anything else, would discredit them, but it is dangerous to practice
this, in the extreme.
Psychopolitics should avoid murder and violence,
unless it is done in the safety of the institution, on persons who have
been proven to be insane. Where institution deaths appear to be
unnecessary, or to rise in "unreasonable number," political capital
might be made of this by city officials or legislature. If the
psychopolitical operative has, himself, or if his group has done a
thorough job, defamatory data concerning the person, or connections, of
the would-be attacker should be on file, should be documented, and
should be used in such a way as to discourage the inquiry.
After a period of indoctrination, a country will
expect insanity to be met by psychopolitical violence. Psychopolitical
activities should become the only recognized treatment for insanity.
Indeed, this can be extended to such a length that it could be made
illegal for electric shock and brain surgery to be omitted in the
treatment of a patient.
In order to defend psychopolitical activities, a
great complexity should be made of psychiatric, psychoanalytical, and
psychological technology. Any hearing should be burdened by terminology
too difficult to be transcribed easily. A great deal should be made out
of such terms as schizophrenia, paranoia, and other relatively
undefinable states.
Psychopolitical tests need not necessarily be in
agreement, one to another, where they are available to the public.
Various types of insanity should be characterized by difficult terms.
The actual state should be made obscure, but by this verbiage it can be
built into the court or investigating mind that a scientific approach
exists and that it is too complex for him to understand. It is not to be
imagined that a judge or a committee of investigation should inquire
too deeply into the subject of insanity, since they, themselves, part of
the indoctrinated masses, are already intimidated if the
psychopolitical activity has caused itself to be well-documented in
terms of horror in magazines.
In case of a hearing or trial, the terribleness of
insanity itself, its threat to the society, should be exaggerated until
the court or committee believes that the psychopolitical operative is
vitally necessary in his post and should not be harassed for the
activities of persons who are irrational.
An immediate attack upon the sanity of the attacker
before any possible hearing can take place is the very best defense. It
should become well-known that "only the insane attack psychiatrists."
The by-word should be built into the society that paranoia is a
condition "in which the individual believes he is being attacked by
Communists." It will be found that this defense is effective.
Part of the effective defenses should include the
entire lack in the society of any real psychotherapy. This must be
systematically stamped out, since a real psychotherapy might possibly
uncover the results of psychopolitical activities.
Jurisprudence, in a Capitalistic nation, is of such
clumsiness that cases are invariably tried in their newspapers. We have
handled these things much better in Russia, and have uniformly brought
people to trial with full confessions already arrived at (being
implanted) before the trial took place.
Should any whisper, or pamphlet, against
psychopolitical activities be published, it should be laughed into
scorn, branded an immediate hoax, and its perpetrator or publisher
should be, at the first opportunity, branded as insane and by the use of
drugs the insanity should be confirmed. |

CHAPTER XI
THE USE OF PSYCHOPOLITICS IN SPREADING COMMUNISM
Reactionary nations are of such a
composition that they attack a word without understanding of it. As the
conquest of a nation by Communism depends upon imbuing its population
with communistic tenets, it is not necessary that the term "Communism"
be applied at first to the educative measures employed.
As an example, in the United States we have been able
to alter the works of William James, and others, into a more acceptable
pattern, and to place the tenets of Karl Marx, Pavlov, Lamarck, and the
data of Dialectic Materialism into the textbooks of psychology, to such
a degree that anyone thoroughly studying psychology becomes at once a
candidate to accept the reasonableness of Communism.
As every chair of psychology in the United States is
occupied by persons in our connection, the consistent employment of such
texts is guaranteed. They are given the authoritative ring, and they
are carefully taught.
Constant pressure in the legislatures of the United
States can bring about legislation to the effect that every student
attending a high school or university must have classes in psychology.
Educating broadly the educated strata of the populace
into the tenets of Communism is thus rendered relatively easy, and when
the choice is given them whether to continue in a Capitalistic or a
Communistic condition, they will see, suddenly, in Communism, much more
reasonability than in Capitalism, which will now be of our own
definition. |

CHAPTER XII VIOLENT REMEDIES
As a populace, in general, understand that
a violence is necessary in the handling of the insane, violent remedies
seem to be reasonable. Starting from a relatively low level of
violence, such as strait-jackets and other restraints, it is relatively
easy to encroach upon the public diffidence for violence by adding more
and more cruelty into the treatment of the insane.
By increasing the brutality of "treatment," the
public acceptance of such treatment will be assisted, and the protest of
the individual to whom the treatment is given is impossible, since
immediately after the treatment he is incapable. The family of the
individual under treatment is suspect for having had in its midst,
already, an insane person. The family's protest should be discredited.
The more violent the treatment, the more command
value the psychopolitical operative will accumulate. Brain operations
should become standard and commonplace. While the figures of actual
deaths should be repressed wherever possible, nevertheless, it is of no
great concern to the psychopolitical operative that many deaths do
occur.
Gradually, the public should be educated into
electric shock, first by believing that it is very therapeutic, then by
believing that it is quieting, then by being informed that electric
shock usually injures the spine and teeth, and finally, that if very
often kills or at least breaks the spine and removes, violently, the
teeth of the patient. It is very doubtful if anyone from the lay levels
of the public could tolerate the observation of a single electric shock
treatment. Certainly they could not tolerate witnessing a prefrontal
lobotomy or trans-orbital leucotomy. However, they should be brought up
to a level where this is possible, where it is the expected treatment,
and where the details, of the treatment itself can be made known, thus
to the increase of psychopolitical prestige.
The more violent the treatment, the more hopeless insanity will seem to be.
The society should be worked up to the level where
every recalcitrant young man can be brought into court and assigned to a
psychopolitical operative, be given electric shocks, and reduced into
unimaginative docility for the remainder of his days.
By continuous and increasing advertising of the
violence of treatment, the public will at last come to tolerate the
creation of zombie conditions to such a degree that they will probably
employ zombies, if given to them. Thus a large strata of the society,
particularly that which was rebellious, can be reduced to the service of
the psychopolitician.
By various means, a public must be convinced, at
least, that insanity can only be met by shock, torture, deprivation,
defamation, discrediting, violence, maiming, death, punishment in all
its forms. The society, at the same time, must be educated into the
belief of increasing insanity within its ranks. This creates an
emergency, and places the psychopolitician in a saviour role, and places
him, at length, in charge of the society. |

CHAPTER XIII
THE RECRUITING OF PSYCHOPOLITICAL DUPES
The psychopolitical dupe is a well-trained individual who serves in complete obedience to the psychopolitical operative.
In that nearly all persons in training are expected
to undergo a certain amount of treatment in any field of the mind, it is
not too difficult to persuade persons in the field of mental healing to
subject themselves to mild or minor drugs or shock. If this can be
done, a psychological dupe on the basis of pain-drug hypnosis can
immediately result.
Recruitment into the ranks of "mental healing" can
best be done by carefully bringing to it only those healing students who
are, to some slight degree, already depraved, or who have been
"treated" by psychopolitical operatives.
Recruitment is effected by making the field of mental healing very attractive, financially, and sexually.
The amount of promiscuity which can be induced in
mental patients can work definitely to the advantage of the
psychopolitical recruiting agent. The dupe can thus be induced into many
lurid sexual contacts, and these, properly witnessed, can thereafter be
used as blackmail material to assist any failure of pain-drug hypnosis
in causing him to execute orders.
The promise of unlimited sexual opportunities, the
promise of complete dominion over the bodies and minds of helpless
patients, the promise of having lawlessness without detection, can thus
attract to "mental healing" many desirable recruits who will willingly
fall in line with psychopolitical activities.
In that the psychopolitician has under his control
the insane of the nation, most of them have criminal tendencies, and as
he can, as his movement goes forward, recruit for his ranks the
criminals themselves, he has unlimited numbers of human beings to employ
on whatever projects he may see fit. In that the insane will execute
destructive projects without question, if given the proper amount of
punishment and implantation, the degradation of the country's youth, the
defamation of its leaders, the suborning of its courts becomes
childishly easy.
The psychopolitician has the advantage of naming as a
delusory symptom any attempt on the part of the patient to expose
commands.
The psychopolitician should carefully adhere to
institutions and should eschew practice whenever possible, since this
gives him the greatest number of human beings to control to the use of
Communism. When he does act in private practice, it should be only in
contact with the families of the wealthy and the officials of the
country. |

CHAPTER XIV THE SMASHING OF RELIGIOUS GROUPS
You must know that until recent times the
complete subject of mental derangement, whether so light as simple worry
or so heavy as insanity, was the sphere of activity of the church and
only the church.
Traditionally in civilized nations and barbaric ones
the priesthood alone had in complete charge the mental conditions of the
citizen. As a matter of great concern to the psychopolitician this
tendency still exists in every public in the Western World and
scientific inroads into this sphere has occurred only in official and
never in public quarters.
The magnificent tool welded for us by Wundt would be
as nothing if it were not for official insistence in civilized countries
that "scientific practices" be applied to the problem of the mind.
Without this official insistence or even if it relapsed for a moment,
the masses would grasp stupidly for the priest, the minister, and the
clergy when mental condition came in question. Today in Europe and
America "scientific practices" in the field of the mind would not last
moments if not enforced entirely by officialdom.
It must be carefully hidden that the incidence of
insanity has increased only since thee "scientific practices" were
applied. Great remarks must be made of the "the pace of modern living"
and other myths as the cause of the increased neurosis in the world. It
is nothing to us what causes it if anything does. It is everything to us
that no evidence of any kind shall be tolerated afoot to permit the
public tendency toward the church its way. If given their heads, if left
to themselves to decide, independent of officialdom, where they would
place their deranged loved ones the public would choose religious
sanitariums and would avoid as if plagued places where "scientific
practices" prevail.
Given any slightest encouragement, public support
would swing on an instant all mental healing into the hands of the
churches. And there are Churches waiting to receive it, clever churches.
That terrible monster, the Roman Catholic Church, still dominates
mental healing heavily throughout the Christian world and their well
schooled priests are always at work to turn the public their way. Among
Fundamentalist and Pentecostal groups, healing campaigns are conducted,
which, because of their results, win many to the cult of Christianity.
In the field of pure healing the Church of Christ Science of Boston,
Massachusetts excels in commanding the public favor and operates many
sanitariums. All of these must be swept aside. They must be ridiculed
and defamed and every cure they advertise must be asserted a hoax. A
full fifth of a psychopolitician's time should be devoted to smashing
these threats. Just as in Russian we had to destroy, after many, many
years of most arduous work, the Church, so we must destroy all faiths in
nations marked for conquest.
Insanity must be made to hound the footsteps of every
priest and practitioner. His best results must be turned to jabbering
insanities no matter what means we have to use.
You need not care what effect you have upon the
public. The effect you care about is the one upon officials. You must
recruit every agency of the nation marked for slaughter into a foaming
hatred of religious healing. You must suborn district attorneys and
judges into an intense belief as fervent as an ancient faith in God that
Christian Science or any other religious practice which might devote
itself to mental healing is vicious, bad, insanity-causing, publicly
hated and intolerable.
You must suborne and recruit any medical healing
organization into collusion in this campaign. You must appeal to their
avarice and even their humanity to invite their co-operation in smashing
all religious healing and thus, to our end, care of the insane. You
must see that such societies have only qualified Communist-indoctrinees
as their advisors in this matter. For you can use such societies. They
are stupid and stampede easily. Their cloak and degrees can be used
quite well to mask any operation we care to have masked. We must make
them partners in our endeavor so that they will never be able to crawl
from beneath our thumb and discredit us.
We have battled in America since the century's turn
to bring to nothing any and all Christian influences and we are
succeeding. While we today seem to be kind to the Christian, remember,
we have yet to influence the "Christian world" to our ends. When that is
done we shall have an end of them everywhere. You may see them here in
Russia as trained apes. They do not know their tether is long only until
the apes in other lands have become unwary.
You must work until "religion" is synonymous with
"insanity."" You must work until the officials of city, county and state
governments will not think twice before they pounce upon religious
groups as public enemies.
Remember, all lands are governed by the few and only
pretend to consult with the many. It is no different in America. The
petty official, the maker of laws alike can be made to believe the
worst. It is not necessary to convince the masses. It is only necessary
to work incessantly upon the official, using personal defamations, wild
lies, false evidences and constant propaganda to make him fight for you
against the church or against any practitioner.
Like the official, the bona-fide medical healer also
believes the worst if it can be shown to him as dangerous competition.
And like the Christian, should he seek to take from us any right we have
gained, we shall finish him as well.
We must be like the vine upon the tree. We use the
tree to climb and then, strangling it, grow into power on the
nourishment of its flesh.
We must strike from our path any opposition. We must
use for our tools any authority that comes to hand. And then at last,
the decades sped, we can dispense with all authority save our own and
triumph the greater glory of the Party. |

CHAPTER XV PROPOSALS WHICH MUCH BE AVOIDED
There are certain damaging movements which
could interrupt the psychopolitical conquest. These coming from some
quarters of the country, might gain headway and should be spotted before
they do, and stamped out.
Proposals may be made by large and powerful groups in
the country to return the insane to the care of those who have handled
mental healing for tribes and populace for centuries--the priest. Any
movement to place clergymen in charge of institutions should be fought
on the grounds of incompetence and the insanity brought about by
religion. The most destructive thing which could happen to a
psychopolitical program would be the investment of the ministry with the
care of the nation's insane.
If mental hospitals operated by religious groups are
in existence, they must be discredited and closed, no matter what the
cost, for it might occur that the actual figures of recovery in such
institutions would become known, and that the lack of recovery in
general institutions might be compared to them, and this might lead to a
movement to place the clergy in charge of the insane. Every argument
must be advanced early, to overcome any possibility of this ever
occurring.
A country's law must carefully be made to avoid any
rights of person to the insane. Any suggested laws or Constitutional
Amendments which make the harming of the insane unlawful, should be
fought to the extreme, on the grounds that only violent measures can
succeed. If the law were to protect the insane, as it normally does not,
the entire psychopolitical program would very possibly collapse.
Any movements to increase or place under surveillance
the orders required to hospitalize the mentally ill should be
discouraged. This should be left entirely in the hands of persons well
under the control of psychopolitical operatives. It should be done with
minimum formality, and no recovery of the insane from an institution
should be possible by any process of law. Thus, any movement to add to
the legal steps of the processes of commitment and release should be
discouraged on the grounds of emergency. To obviate this, the best
action is to place a psychiatric and detention ward for the mentally ill
in every hospital in a land.
Any writings of a psychopolitical nature,
accidentally disclosing themselves, should be prevented. All actual
literature on the subject of insanity and its treatment should be
suppressed, first by actual security, and second by complex verbage
which renders it incomprehensible. The actual figures of recovery or
death should never be announced in any papers. Any investigation
attempting to discover whether or not psychiatry or psychology has ever
cured anyone should be immediately discouraged and laughed to scorn, and
should mobilize at the point all psychopolitical operatives. At first,
it should be ignored, but if this is not possible, the entire weight of
all psychopoliticians in the nation should be pressed into service. Any
tactic possible should be employed to prevent this from occurring. To
rebut it, technical appearing papers should exist as to the tremendous
number of cures effected by psychiatry and psychology, and whenever
possible, percentages of cures, no matter how fictitious, should be
worked into legislative papers, thus forming a background of "evidence"
which would immediately rebut any effort to actually discover anyone who
had ever been helped by psychiatry or psychology.
If the Communistic connections of an psychopolitician
should become disclosed, it should be attributed to his own
carelessness, and he should, himself, be immediately branded as
eccentric within his own profession.
Authors of literature which seek to demonstrate the
picture of a society under complete mental control and duress should be
helped toward infamy or suicide to discredit their works.
Any legislation liberalizing any healing practice
should be immediately fought and defeated. All healing practices should
gravitate entirely to authoritative levels, and no other opinions should
be admitted, as these might lead to exposure.
Movements to improve youth should be invaded and
corrupted, as this might interrupt campaigns to produce in youth
delinquency, addiction, drunkenness, and sexual promiscuity.
Communist workers in the field of newspapers and
radio should be protected wherever possible by striking out of action,
through Psychopolitics, any persons consistently attacking them. These,
in their turn, should be persuaded to give every possible publicity to
the benefits of psychopolitical activities under the heading of
"science."
No healing group devoted to the mind must be allowed
to exist within the borders of Russia or its satellites. Only
well-vouched-for psychopolitical operatives can be continued in their
practice, and this only for the benefit of the government or against
enemy prisoners.
Any effort to exclude psychiatrists or psychologists from the armed services must be fought.
Any inquest into the "suicide" or sudden mental
derangement of any political leader in a nation must be conducted only
by psychopolitical operatives or their dupes, whether Psychopolitics is
responsible or not.
Death and violence against persons attacking
Communism in a nation should be eschewed as forbidden. Violent activity
against such persons might bring about their martyrdom. Defamation, and
the accusation of insanity, alone should be employed, and they should be
brought at last under the ministrations of psychopolitical operatives,
such as psychiatrists and controlled psychologists. |

CHAPTER XVI IN SUMMARY
In this time of unlimited weapons, and in
national antagonisms, where atomic war with Capitalistic powers is
possible, Psychopolitics must act efficiently as never before.
Any and all programs of Psychopolitics must be
increased to aid and abet the activities of other Communist agents
throughout the nation in question.
The failure of Psychopolitics might well bring about the atomic bombing of the Motherland.
If Psychopolitics succeeds in its mission throughout
the Capitalistic nations of the world, there will never be an atomic
war, for Russia will have subjugated all of her enemies.
Communism has already spread across one-sixth of the
inhabited world. Marxist Doctrines have already penetrated the
remainder. An extension of the Communist social order is everywhere
victorious. The spread of Communism has never been by force of battle,
but by conquest of the mind. In Psychopolitics we have refined this
conquest to its last degree.
The psychopolitical operative must succeed, for his
success means a world of Peace. His failure might well mean the
destruction of the civilized portions of Earth by atomic power in the
hands of Capitalistic madmen.
The end thoroughly justifies the means. The
degradation of populace is less inhuman than their destruction by atomic
fission, for to an animal who lives only once, any life is sweeter than
death.
The end of war is the control of a conquered people.
If a people can be conquered in the absence of war, the end of war will
have been achieved without the destruction of war. A worth goal.
The psychopolitician has his reward in the nearly
unlimited control of populace, in the uninhibited exercise of passion,
and the glory of Communist conquest over the stupidity of the enemies of
the People.
