The New Abnormal

After Crisis, with a violent change of 

Power, Structure, and Economy, 

you have the so-called 

Period of Normalisation. 

It may last indefinitely. 

Normalisation is a cynical expression borrowed from Soviet Propaganda. 

When the Soviet tanks moved into Czechoslovakia in ‘68, Comrade Brezhnev said,

‘Now, the situation in brotherly Czechoslovakia is normalised.’

This is what will happen in s if you allow all these schmucks to bring The Country to Crisis, 

to promise people all kinds of goodies and The Paradise on Earth.

" As I mentioned before, exposure to True Information does not matter anymore. A person who was demoralised 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 fat bottom. When a military boot crushes his balls... then he will understand. But not before that. That's the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralisation.

So basically America is stuck with demoralisation and unless... even if you start right now, here, this minute, you start educating [a] new generation of American[s], it will still take you fifteen to twenty years to turn the tide of ideological perception of reality back to normalcy and patriotism.

The next stage is Destabilisation. This time [the] subverter does not care about your ideas and the patterns of your consumption; whether you eat junk food and get fat and flabby doesn’t matter any more. This time — and it takes only from two to five years to destabilise a nation — what matters [are] essentials: economy, foreign relations, [and] defence systems. 

And you can see it quite clearly that in some areas, in such sensitive areas as defence and [the] economy, the influence of Marxist-Leninist ideas in [the] United States is absolutely fantastic. I could never believe it fourteen years ago when I landed in this part of the world that the process [would have gone] that fast.

The next stage, of course, is Crisis. It may take only up to six weeks to bring a country to the verge of crisis. You can see it in Central America now.

And, after Crisis, with a violent change of Power, Structure, and Economy, you have [the so-called] Period of Normalisation. It may last indefinitely. Normalisation is a cynical expression borrowed from Soviet propaganda. When the Soviet tanks moved into Czechoslovakia in ‘68, Comrade Brezhnev said,

‘Now, the situation in brotherly Czechoslovakia is normalised.’

This is what will happen in [the] United States if you allow all these schmucks to bring the country to crisis, to promise people all kind[s] of goodies and the Paradise on Earth, to destabilise your economy, to eliminate the principle of free market competition, and to put [a] Big Brother Government in Washington, D.C. with benevolent dictators like Walter Mondale, who will promise lots of thing[s], never mind whether the promises are fulfillable or not. 

He will go to Moscow to kiss the bottoms of [a] new generation of Soviet assassins, never mind... he will create false illusions that The Situation is under control. 

[The] Situation is not under control. 

[The] Situation is disgustingly out of control.

Most of the American politicians, media, and educational system trains another generation of people who think they are living at the peacetime. False. [The] United States is in a state of war: undeclared, total war against the basic principles and foundations of this system. And the initiator of this war is not Comrade Andropov, of course. It's the system. However ridiculous it may sound, [it is] the world Communist system (or the world Communist conspiracy). Whether I scare some people or not, I don't give a hoot. If you are not scared by now, nothing can scare you.

But you don’t have to be paranoid about it. What actually happens now [is] that unlike [me], you have literally several years to live on unless [the] United States [wakes] up. The time bomb is ticking: with every second [he snaps his fingers], the disaster is coming closer and closer. Unlike [me], you will have nowhere to defect to. Unless you want to live in Antarctica with penguins. This is it. This is the last country of freedom and possibility.

Griffin: Okay, so what do we do? What is your recommendation to the American people?

Bezmenov: Well, the immediate thing that comes to my mind is of course, there must be a very strong national effort to educate people in the spirit of real patriotism, number one. 

Number two, to explain [to] them the real danger of Socialist, Communist, whatever, Welfare State, Big Brother Government. If people will fail to grasp the impending danger of that development, nothing ever can help [the] United States. 

You may kiss good bye to your freedom, including freedoms [for] homosexuals, [for] prison inmate[s]; all this freedom will vanish, evaporate in five seconds... including your precious lives.

The second thing: [at] the moment at least part of [the] United States population is convinced that The Danger is REAL. They have to force their Government, and I'm not talking about sending letters, signing petitions, and all this beautiful, noble activity. I'm talking about forcing [the] United States Government to stop aiding Communism. 

Because there is no other problem more burning and urgent than to stop the Soviet military-industrial complex from destroying whatever is left of the free world. And it is very easy to do: no credits, no technology, no money, no political or diplomatic recognition, and of course no such idiocy as grain deals to [the] USSR.

The Soviet people, 270 [million] Soviets, will be eternally thankful to you if you stop aiding [the] bunch of murderers who sit now in [the] Kremlin, and whom President Reagan respectfully calls ‘Government.’ They do not govern anything, least of all such [a] complexity as the Soviet economy.

So basic[ally], two very simple... maybe two simplistic answers or solutions, but nevertheless they are the only solutions: educate yourself, [and] understand what’s going on around you. You are not living at [a] time of peace. You are in a state of war and you have precious little time to save yourself. You don’t have much time, especially if you are talking about [the] young generation. There’s not much time left for convulsions to the beautiful disco music. Very soon it will go [he snaps his fingers] just overnight.

If we are talking about capitalists or wealthy businessmen, I think they are selling the rope from which they will hang very soon. If they don’t stop, if they cannot curb their unsettled desire for profit, and if they keep on trading with the monster of the Soviet Communism, they are going to hang very soon. And they will pray to be killed, but unfortunately they will be sent to Alaska, probably, to manage [the] industry of slaves.

It’s simplistic. I know it sounds unpleasant; I know Americans don’t like to listen to things which are unpleasant, but I have defected not to tell you the stories about such idiocy as microfilm, James Bond-type espionage. 

This is garbage. You don’t need any espionage anymore. 

I have come to talk about Survival. It’s a question of [the] Survival of This System. 

You may ask me what is [in it] for me. Survival, obviously. 

Because I like... as I said, I am now in your boat. 

If we sink together, we will sink beautifully together. 

There is no other place on this planet to defect to.
