“As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized 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 fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.”

That is chilling.

Chilling is apt. I believe a KGB operative was quoted saying that the leftist is one of their greatest agents - regarding the average leftist's tendency towards infighting. I didn't really understand at the time, because I didn't realize the spectre in the background of this statement is 'while the leftist is busy fighting his neighbor, someone can step in through the chaos and take advantage'.
