A note from the author. §0 §0 §0The contents of this book are dangerous and for the sole purpose of discrediting your enemies and looking like a crazy person.§0 §0Read with caution.

i. Principles and Methods§0 §0 §01. Indirect Technique§0 §0 §0New anxieities can be suggested to the audience by gratuitous reassurances on points of possible difficulty which have never yet occurred to the listener. Tell your audience what they

should be afraid of. Create enemies other than your own to project the suspicion and fears you want to share and bring to the forefront of a state's agenda. Become a station for those fears and broadcast them incessantly to your audience.

Such a station would have to pretend to be a fixed solely on the enemies. §0 §0 §0See spam as an agendist's method of projected fear. §0 §0Patriot: the person who can holler the loudest without knowing what he is hollering about.

2. Conceivable propagandist§0 §0 §0propagandists working for the enemy might be bribed through promises of later amnesty, etc, to sabotage or to make less effective their efforts in behalf of the enemy. Possible techniques for doing this indirectly

are to place too much emphasis upon the improper segments of the dictated propaganda lines, to give too much attention to deny what the enemy or what rumor mongers are saying, especially if the actual contents are given, to commit the enemy his ability to

deal, to raise false hopes, etc. For examples of such techniques one should study the "lower" Redditor's discussion and interaction.

3. Disguised propaganda§0 §0 §0Techniques for disguised propaganda, i.e. propaganda in which the listener cannot or does not guess the source of the propaganda material.§0 §0It is very important in subversive propaganda

to be able to speak to the enemy as though you were one of his fellows. Indubitably effective propaganda can be carried even within the limitations set by this pose. §0 §0 §0Techniques include:§0

a. Supporting the enemy’s position in such an extreme form that the support makes that which is supported seem undesirable.§0 §0b. “Patriotic but pessimistic” material can be broadcast from a purportedly loyal station. As a matter of fact,

the bulk of the material on most freedom stations is of this nature.§0 §0c. “Patriotic or constructively critical” material may be broadcast in which the great bulk of the time is given to exposing dangerous weaknesses, grafts, etc.

d. Ineffectual or ridiculously weak justifications for the acts of the government which the station purports to support can be effective.§0

4. The visible hand§0 §0 §0Some basic ideas or propagandic principles which subversive propaganda can use rather than open propaganda are to tell people exactly what they want to hear, rationalize for them the line of least resistance.

Appeal to their emotional inertia and reluctance to make decisions. We should promise people what they want, tell them that we need not change their ways, justify their current habits and vices. §0 §0 §0An important thing to remember:

people hate best persons near at hand whom they can actively visualize. Second, some people hate best persons who will benefit them rather than persons who have power to punish them for such hate.§0

In other words, there is a natural emotional drift towards compromise by collaboration.

5. Martyrs§0 §0 §0As a general rule, even in war time, all persons including the redditors and troops and our sympathizers in occupied nations follow the line of at least resistance and avoid exposing themselves to danger or pain.

ne of the few symbols which leads people to act otherwise is the martyr symbol. Where we want to inspire resistance among accupied peoples we should create plausible, emotional, melodramatic martyrs and martyr stories.§0

These should of course be heroic martyrs who died fighting. Similarly, we should avoid doing the enemy a favor by creating any martyrs for his use.

ii. Suggestions§0 §0 §01. Hire your best players to manage memes and rumors. §0 §02. player who do the actual policing also be given the jobs of distributing food and also be put to work on reconstruction projects during a certain portion of their time.

3. We should make our most aggressive psychological warfare of informative kind in battle lulls; at other times the news speaks for itself.

iii. Examples§0 §0 §0It is obvious that a conquered people will never love their foreign rulers and that those who actually do the policing and administrating will be the most easily hated.§0 §0 §0The first example would be the occupied state of Byzchan by

WP forces in the vault hole raid. Our job will be to properly channelize and deflect the normal resentment which will be present and which will, if left uncontended, provide the adequate basis for future wars. §0 §0 §0Print books, post memes, and shitpost

everywhere.
