The Psychological Warfare with the Enemy
In
many ways, the war with the Left is a psychological war. Psychology is
the Enemy's is leading means of war. That is because truth, facts, and
reason usually are not in his camp. So we must familiarize with his
psychological warfare to prepare to defeat him. The best way to defeat
the enemy in this post-democratic political climate, is to
totally ignore his exhortations. Be blind and deaf to him, and
carry a mighty big stick---and use it every waking moment of your day.
It is that simple.However,
sooner or later, you are going to be confronted by the Enemy
psychological war machine. If not over enemy operatives, covert ones,
posing as one of you, are going to try to impede your march to victory
using the enemy's favorite canards. The following is a potentially
endless list of such, and how to handle it.(1)
The biggest real problem the enemy faces is that YOU have a mind
of your own, and have opinions of your own that you formed after a
lifetime of experience and experiments with truth. The enemy would
prefer that you suspend your own mind and opionions and replace those
with his own. Of course, weak of heart get perturbed by the enemy's
tantrums designed to scare the shit out of you. Long time ago, a cousin
of mine went away to Berkeley, came home for holidays, was a committed
communist by then, and we were discussing politics, and me being a
naive mathematician, just assumed that if i give her relevant facts,
present my cogent arguments, i can convince her that she was tragically
erring in choosing communism (this was after the fall of Soviet Union).
Not only i could not convince her of ANYTHING, but i also inspired her
to launch the Enemy's favorite psychological weapon, designed to make
you doubt yourself. She assumed an expression of utter disgust,
disdain, and frustration, and ventured, "You are so full of yourself!!"It
was my first brush with a real flesh-and-blood enemy agent in action.
Lucky for me, I AM indeed full of myself. For those
conversant with philosophy, I am a cognitive solipsist, meaning, when
it comes to examination of truth and forming of my opinions, the only
authority I recognize is that of my greatly folded neo-cortex, my
brain. If I were usual product of usual American college, I would've
immediately turned defensive and apologetic for being 'full of myself'
and other such nonsense. Instead, I was surprised at what appeared to
me as her naivete, and I blurted out, "Did you expect me to be full of
YOURself, instead?" Since i am full of my own self, I am sad to say i
have not yet heard a better retort to this particualr weapon of the
Enemy. His most secret wish is that you will be naturally full HIS
self, and if you are not, he is always confident that he can twist your
psycholoical arm into promptly doing so. The biggest defense against
this weapon is to realize that each and every one of us has a choice
about WHAT we are going to be full of. And neither your enemy nor your
friends have any business dictating who or what you are going to fill
yourself of. End of story.(2)
Another variation of the same theme is as follows. You could be
discussing facts and arguments about politics, and since the enemy can
not stop you in the matter of facts and reason, he is apt to say things
like, "Oh you heard that on FOX news, I am sure." or in
matter of ideas and opinions, "Oh you are just brainwashed by Rush
Limbaugh or Ayn Rand or Descartes or God etc.." Now again, for lack of
systematica disputing of facts and or dismantling your carefully
constructed arguments, which he can't, the enemy claims that YOU are
leaning on authority, and then by mere inuendo implies that those
alleged authoritites are a priori suspect, and hence YOUR
thoughts and facts are useless against his own lack of those. Needless
to say, this is one of the favorite tactics of a child caught
lying to his superiors. The best way to shut him up is not by pointing
out that he has still not answered to your facts and reason, but to say
something like, "I would rather be brainwashed by Rush Limbaugh than be
brainwashed by you." Do not give him a foothold. Chop his platform from
under him. And then promptly proceed to talk about the weather.(3)
Yet another of his ploy is to declare that you are oversimplifying the
"issues" and that things are much more complex than you suppose, you
with your limited intelligence can not hope to comprehend the true
complexity of the issue at hand, and hence HIS OWN comprehension of it
is superior and is the final word. Of course, the complexity of an
issue, real or imaginary, does not automatically make his ideas and
opinions any more authentic than your own. Furthermore, he deliberately
tried to portray things as being much more complex than they usually
are, and he hopes to defeat you, and often succeeds at that, by simply
tiring the shit out of you. For example, one erudite leftist
commentator once wrote a detailed criticism of a leading rightist
commentator, and the only meaningful thing the enemy said was a
complaint, "He insists that very complex issues are really very simple,
and have simple solutions." The assumption is that just because of this
statement, the alleged "insistence" of the rightist commentator
was wrong. Now we can point out to the enemy that this is not so.
But he already knows that. The better way to answer this enemy agent is
to say something like this about him, "[the enemy agent] always insists
that simplest of issues are lot more complext than they actually are."
This way, you take his weapon and use it against him. An no one is any
the wiser---certainly not the enemy.(4)
One of the favorite current psychological warfare weapon of the Enemy
is the following. Each one of his soldiers repeats seven times a day
the following nonsense, "There is lot of misinformation out there about
[our current agenda item] ..." or he laments the alleged,
"scare-tactics" of his opposition---i.e. you. Again, the weapon is very
sneaky. It does not specify what exactly is the misinformation, who is
spreading it, or doe not provide any evidence of its existence, but he
presents it as a pretext for his justified frustration with you. And
mind you, he is main interest is not in declaring his own frustration,
his real interst is to enshrine the myth that there is lot of
misinformation and that if that misinformation was erased, his agenda
is almost as clean as one of the Ten Comandments. But he does it as an
understatement, emphasizing his frustration, merely feather-touching
his main point---his main lie---alleged misinformation ...It is very
similar to old insulting tactic from the books, "Do you still regularly
have sex with a goat?" In which, neither yes, nor no, will be a good
answer. It enshrines a non-truth as truth without ever bringing it to
the floor for debate. Very sneaky, this enemy, i am telling you,
folks. IF you must answer such nonsense, there is no point in pointing
out that there is no such misinformation, and that it is you, instead,
who should be frustrated by his lies. Instead act stupid. Say
one-worders like, "Oh?" ...."Misinformation?" "Really"?
"Eh?" until he is forced to dissect his own frog and expose
the stink in its tummy.(4)
About his pronunciatations about YOU being "paranoid" about his
intentions, which are indeed scary enough to give Alexander the Great a
diarrhea, make no mistake. This is the most fearsome, shameless and
diabolical villain the world has ever faced, or is ever likely to face.
No amount of fear of his intentions, methods, and accomplishments, can
rise to the level of 'paranoia'. Among other things, in the last
century, the Enemy murdered 150 million of his own people. This enemy
is not to be trifled with. He MUST be taken seriously. He must be
feared. And then we must use this fear and forge it into a systematic
fight and war with him. One of the great enemy generals once said, "The
only thing to fear is fear itself" or something equally
nonsensical---although, presumably, in a more innocent context. The
fact of the matter is that fear of the war, fact-based fear of the
enemy's intentions and what he is capable of, is the most important
motivator for putting up a good fight. Fear is not something to
be feared. Fear lets an animal know that there is danger on his
ass. Fear is the biggest asset. The only sensible thing we can say
about fear in the context of the psychology of a soldier is that the
fear should not RULE him. The fear should motivate him, and keep him
vigilant, and the real courage of the soldier lies in doing the job
despite that fear.Fact-check
the cause of fear for yourself. And then try to remove not the fear,
but the cause of the fear. Until the cause is removed, it PAYS to have
the fear.(5)
Yet another sneaky weapon of the Enemy is to exploit your sense of
fair-play and of compassion. The day he graduates from his
indoctrination camps, he starts chanting a mantra that all his deads
are tempered by fair-play and are motivated by human compassion. Both
are lies. But he is always ready to punish for the crime he has
committed as his orginial sin---expressly working against everything
good about humanity, and good for humanity, and doing it in the most
dirtiest ways possible. DON"T LET HIM GET AWAY WITH THIS MOST
FUNDAMENTAL FRAUD. CHALLENGE HIM ON THIS. Never let him get away with
it unchallenged. His whole edifice of lies and monstrosities is based
on these twin pillars of orginal lies. These are so ingrained in
his psyche that even he has started to believe it. Explode these two
myths everytime you see him.(6)
Another of his favorite canards: You are "right-wing nuts"
"extremists" (and by implication, HE alone is the voice of reason
and moderation) .... (to be continued)(7)
Always remember, the enemy has no life outside of his political
religion. His life depends on yours. He can not exist if you stop
prvoding him with psychic energy to feed on, because he has no other
notion of life. As opposed to that, you fight for Liberty because it
gives you righ to pursue your own individual self, and life, as you see
it fit. And there is a whole lot of life in you. Stop feeding him with
your life's energy. He will die of self-consumption.(9)
In order to hide his life's goals---destruction of YOUR life---he will
accuse you of "conspiracy theory" and "scare tactics" etc.
Remember, a theory is valid if it is supported by facts. If not, it is
a theory, and if it is contradicted by facts, it is not even a theory.
And you are the final arbitrar of facts. Not even Einstein would
ask you accept his word on the facts supporting his theory of
Relativity. If he did, he would be a pagan shaman, and not a worshipper
of truth. It is the responsibility of each one of us to take a theory,
examine the facts allegedly supporting it, and decide for ourselves if
the theory is valid or not. Nobody else should be allowed to do that
for you. Not even Einstein has that jurisdiction over your brain---let
alone a grossly overrated, and vastly mediocre black anti-american
traitor Law professor from Chicago.
