These D.E.I. apparatchiks are just the latest incarnation of the Nomenklatura [1] as it existed in the Soviet Union. They are Party-approved commissars who serve the dual purpose of keeping society on its toes to be in line with current Party doctrine as well as creating employment opportunities for those who dedicate their lives and careers to the Party. While the narrative might be somewhat different - protecting "the revolution" against "reactionary forces" versus protecting "marginalised and oppressed minorities" against "white supremacy" - the rest of the spiel is largely identical and aimed at taking and consolidating power. Just like in the Soviet Union the narrative is just that, a narrative to keep up appearances while the real aim is to gain as much power [2] as feasible. Just like in the Soviet Union there can never be an end to those "threats" to (Soviet Union) "the revolution" or (D.E.I.) "marginalised and oppressed minorities" since it is though those supposed threats that they justify their own importance. Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov was right, his predictions [3] have mostly come to pass: “As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.” It’s hard not to see in that the state of many modern Americans. We have become a society of polarized tribes, with some people flat out rejecting facts in favor of narratives and opinions. Indeed, and that was in 1984. Once demoralization is completed, the second stage of ideological brainwashing is “destabilization”. During this two-to-five-year period, asserted Bezmenov, what matters is the targeting of essential structural elements of a nation: economy, foreign relations, and defense systems. Basically, the subverter (Russia) would look to destabilize every one of those areas in the United States, considerably weakening it. Bezemov thought of Russia being the subverter but it seems that the USA and to a certain extent the west has proven itself to be capable of subverting itself without the need for more foreign assistance. The third stage would be “crisis.” It would take only up to six weeks to send a country into crisis, explained Bezmenov. The crisis would bring “a violent change of power, structure, and economy” and will be followed by the last stage, “normalization.” That’s when your country is basically taken over, living under a new ideology and reality. This will happen to America unless it gets rid of people who will bring it to a crisis, warned Bezmenov. What’s more “if people will fail to grasp the impending danger of that development, nothing ever can help [the] United States,” adding, “You may kiss goodbye to your freedom.” [1] https://communistcrimes.org/en/elite-and-their-privileges-soviet-union https://communistcrimes.org/en/elite-and-their-privileges-so...
