"Not being racist at all is the very worst form of racism." - Psychology Now.
I sometimes think that if we simply had better footage. A camera with better quality. That's it! (Ok, maybe a slightly better interviewer?) But, that's all it would take for Yuri Bezmenov to be taken more seriously. Or just the concept that hiring people from countries we've dicked over for decades may not be the overall best policy when they come and work in our government, higher education and etc?
Of course, that's part of what he says will happen. That once it's underway it won't matter if we 'know' it's happening. The tipping point has been reached and enough of us will just think we're "racist" or whatever and will be immune to reason or evidence.
1. Demoralization - this is a process which can take about 15-30 years to perform (a generation). During this stage, the moral fibre and integrity of the country is put into question, thereby creating doubt in the minds of the people. To do so, manipulation of the media and academia is required to influence young people. As the younger generation embraces new values, such as Marxism and Leninism, the older generation slowly loses control simply through attrition. Again, true facts no longer matter during this stage, but rather creating perceptions are of paramount importance.
2. Destabilization - the purpose of this step is to change the status quo, particularly the country's economy, foreign relations, and defense systems. The intent is to create a massive government permeating society and becoming intrusive in the lives of its citizens. This can take from two to five years to perform, again with the active support of academia pushing youth in this direction. Here, entitlements and benefits are promised to the populace to encourage their support. Basically, they are bribing the people to accept their programs.
Bezmenov claims after this stage is completed, the naive college professors are no longer needed and since they will undoubtedly protest government policies when they discover the truth, they will be disposed of quickly. He cites examples of this occurring in Nicaragua, Grenada, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh.
3. Crisis - this is a major step lasting up to six weeks and involves a revolutionary change of power. This is where a cataclysmic event upsets and divides the country thereby creating panic among the citizens. Recent examples include the 2011 upheavals in the Middle East, most notably Egypt and Libya. To Americans, symptoms would include circumventing the Constitution and altering the checks and balances of government, and possibly martial law.
4. Normalization - the final stage is where the populace finally acquiesces and begins to assimilate communism. This can take up to two decades to complete.
I guess the Demoralization stage was what is called "Critical Theory" out of the Frankfurt school, Columbia University IIRC. This is where you criticize and question the nation's history, morality, founding principles through media, education, etc. I think we are now entering stage 2.

Not seeing "Color" and treating people like ANYONE else, is not racist. Take it from the Mixed girl. (Like that last part even should matter)
Psychology Today is as bad as Christianity Today!
