1-9 The resistance to evidence about COVID and Trump has puzzled me until now.
KGB agent Yuri Alexandrovich Bezmenov defected to Canada in 1970 and stated 85% of KGB work was “a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare.”

2-“What it...means is: to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.”
3-"Bezmenov described this process as “a great brainwashing” that has four basic stages. The first stage is called “demoralization” which takes from 15 to 20 years to achieve...the time it takes to change what the people are thinking".
4-"You cannot change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior."
5-"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...
6-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."
7-"Once demoralization is completed, the second stage of ideological brainwashing is “destabilization”. During this two-to-five-year period...what matters is the targeting of essential structural elements of a nation: economy, foreign relations, and defense systems."
8-"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...
9-9...“normalization.” That’s when your country is basically taken over, living under a new ideology and reality."
