The correct title of Beria's work is
"Communist Manual of Instructions for Psychopolitical Warfare"
not
"Russian Manual on Psychopolitics"
Nitpicker.
Nitpicker.
In the Communist thought process, the dialectic is supposed to continue. Which is bad news for us. What we have seen of them so far is merely the antithesis to capitalism, i.e., The Dictatorship of the Proletariat. World Communism is to be the eventual synthesis, and they are still working it out.
Fasten your seatbelt, this bumpy ride toward the Communist Synthesis ain't over yet.
I know you don't mean to, but readers may take your thought to mean that the Communists overthrew the Czar.
They most certainly did not. They took over from the democratically elected Duma, and the government of Prime Minister Kerensky, a true parliamentary democracy. The Czar was already gone.
The Communists had discipline, were absolutely united behind their plan, and they had overwhelming force where they needed it to terrorize their opponents. Had the Russian democrats been able to get their act together and been united, IMHO the Communists would have disappeared in the Russian Civil War, and, in fact, almost did.
"So what's left?"
Rational Emotive Therapy, per Albert Ellis. It's so down to earth, it's darn near conservative.
Bump. Outstanding article. I trust I will be dead before this gains full force. I just wish I had enough money to retire to St.John.
BTTT!
See also "Delphi Process"
This is what I meant, more or less.
"I wish I had the time to critique all the semi-literate, semi-biblical pseudo-thought on this thread, but I have syntheses to forge."
You mean like...
Phase I:
There is a God(Thesis) + There is no God(your anti-thesis) = Conclusion: we're not sure there is a God(Synthesis)
Phase II:
We're not sure there is a God(Thesis) + There is no God(anti-thesis) = Conclusion: we're almost sure there is no God(Synthesis).
Phase III:
We're almost sure there is no God(Thesis) + There is no God(anti-thesis) = Conclusion: we agree there is no God, but some skeptics still remain.
The modern/occult version:
Creationism/ID(Thesis) + Evolutionism(anti-Thesis) = Synthesis.
I see, I get it now.
Beware the enemy of Christianity!
RD:
........and American Catholic bishops give a rats ass.
KC:
Mixed bag.
RD:
USCCB Movie Review Loves Gay Cowboy Movie.
Roman Rite Catholic bishops wouldn't hesitate to condemn this degenerate piece of evil. But they are unnumbered and atmosphered by Satan's minions in the USCCB.
Sodomite cowboys.....GOOD
The Passion of Christ........ BAD
I really don't know were 'atmosphered' came from?!?!?!?
"'Psychopolitics is the art and science of asserting and maintaining physical and mental dominion over the thoughts and loyalties of individuals, officers, bureaus, and the masses, thereby conquering enemy nations through "mental healing.' (Russian Manual on Psychopolitics, by Laventi Pavlovich Beria, head of the Soviet Secret Service Police and right hand man of Joseph Stalin"
mmmm and we think we have "choices"
Makes one think of the hoardes of psychiatrists who flock to scenes of disasters to administer their "grief management."
It has always seemed utter nonsense to me as individuals should be able to manage their own feelings about a disaster. These grief managers seem to me to be very like firemen who, with nothing to do, manage to fire up the trucks, turn on the siren and rush to Krispy-Kreme for doughnuts.
