It is then with
a certain security that a psychopolitical operator functions, for he
knows that he can change the loyalty of an individual
to a more ideal level by reason alone, and only expediency makes it necessary to
employ the various shifts of psychopolitical technology. Any man
who cannot be persuaded into Communist rationale is, of course, to
be regarded as somewhat less than sane, and we are, therefore completely
justified in our use of the techniques of insanity upon the non-
Communist.
In order to change loyalties it is first necessary to identify the existing
loyalties of the individual. The task is made very simple in view
of the fact that the Capitalistic and Fascistic nations have no great
security in the loyalty of their subjects. And it may be found that the
loyalties of the subjects, as we call any persons against whom psychopolitical
technology is to be exerted, are already too faint to
require eradication. It is generally only necessary to persuade with
the rationale and overwhelming reasonability of communism to have
the person grant his loyalty to the Russian State. However, guided
only by the importance of the subject, no excessive amount of time
should be expended upon the individual before resorting to emotional
duress, electric shock, or brain surgery, should Communist
propaganda persuasion fail. In the case of a very important person,
it may be necessary to utilize the more delicate technologies of
Psychopolitics so as to keep the person himself, and his associates,
ignorant of the operation. In this case a simple implantation is used,
with a maximum duress and command value. Only the most skilled
psychopolitical operator should be employed on the case of a very
important person, for any bungling might reveal the tampering with
his mental processes. It is highly recommended, if there is any doubt
whatever about the success of an operation against an important person,
to select as a psychopolitical target persons in his vicinity with
whom he is emotionally involved. His wife or children normally furnish
the best targets, and these can be operated against without
restraint. In securing the loyalty of a very important person one
must place at his side a constant pleader who introduces a sexual or
familial chord into the situation on the side of communism. It may
not be necessary to make a Communist out of the wife, or the children,
or one of the children, but it might prove efficacious to do so.
