Ran across this today [View all]

Someone shared a quote on Twitter;

Yuri Bezmenov says that only 15% of KGB (now the FSB) work is in espionage. The other 85% attempts to undermine the U.S.A. via “ideological subversion,” which sets about to change our citizens’ perception of a reality where no sensible conclusions can be made.

Then I looked for a link, found this; https://counter-currents.com/2021/11/yuri-bezmenov-how-to-subvert-a-country-from-within/ (facebook wouldn't let me share it)

Then this; https://archive.org/stream/BezmenovLoveLetterToAmerica/YuriBezmenov-LoveLetterToAmerica_djvu.txt

I know I don't share here anymore, it seemed like nothing I shared mattered, but I still come and see what you all share. Love Letter to America has come true!!
