Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (8:23)

Simply because you see the useful idiots, the leftists who are idealistically believing in the beauty of Soviet socialists or communists or whatever system. When they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That's why my KGB instructors specifically made a point. Never bother with leftists. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. This was my instruction. Try to get into large circulation, established conservative media, rich, filthy rich movie makers, intellectuals, so called academic circles, cynical egocentric people who can look into your eyes with angelic expression and tell you a lie. These are the most recruitable people, people who lack moral principles, who are either too greedy or too suffer from self importance. They feel that they matter a lot. These are the people who KGB wanted very much to recruit.

Charlie Kirk (9:23)

Never bother with leftists. When they get disillusioned, they turn and become a problem. He of course called them political prostitutes. Aim higher. Yuri said. Remember he was trained by the inner circles of the most sophisticated communist campaign in the history of the world. He was trained to get into larger circulation, conservative establishment media, for example, China buying a six million dollar ad to the Wall Street Journal. Get in with the filthy rich movie makers, the intellectuals, the cynical, egocentric people who can look you in the eye with angelic expression and lie. He said, these are useful idiots. So look at Twitter. Every single one of these groups are ripping on our president. They all lack moral principles. They're either too greedy or self important to tell the truth. And we saw this during the lockdowns as well. These useful idiots are how you demoralize a nation. You remove truth. Now, America was not able to be turned as quickly as people like Yuri and the KGB thought or expected. We were actually greater, more committed to moral principles than anywhere else. We were rooted in truth. We were built on divinely inspired principles from the Scottish Enlightenment, from John Locke all the way back to Aristotle, using logic and reason and the Bible as the most important book in society. But 35 years after this lecture from URI, you're starting to see their slow and steady work take effect. The ideological subversion, as the KGB called it, is easy to see if you have truth, reason, logic and a willingness to accept all those things. You can see it if you want to see it. You can see it if you go through the process of analytical thinking, of research. The problem is so many Americans don't want to see it. As Thoreau wrote, most Americans would just love to lead their lives of desperation. The massive men lead lives of quiet desperation. Henry David Thoreau wrote, truth is the ultimate defense to these tactics. But when you create an aggrieved class that are too angry and emotional to see truth anymore, they simply Become pawns in the Left's ideological subversion. Play tape.

Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (11:36)

Ideological subversion or active measures in the language of the KGB or psychological warfare. What it basically means is to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information, no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community and their country. It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow. And it's divided into four basic stages. The first one being demoralization. It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years which requires to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy, exposed to the ideology of the enemy. In other words, Marxism, Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least three generations of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism, American patriotism. The result, the result. You can see most of the people who graduated in 60s dropouts or half baked intellectuals are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, educational system. Demoralization now reaches such areas where previously not even Comrade Andropov and all his experts would would even dream of such a tremendous success. Most of it is done by Americans to Americans, thanks to lack of moral standards. As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore. 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 authenticity, proof, with documents, with pictures, even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it until he is going to receive a kick in his fat bottom when a military boot crashes his balls. Then he will understand, but not before that. That's the tragic of the situation of demoralization.

Charlie Kirk (14:03)

And according to Yuri, as he was trained, reality can literally shift. We are seeing this and go back in the previous episode this is Personal. And how the Overton window has changed instantaneously and as Yuri outlined, is something I always say of what happens on college campuses will soon happen in the halls of Congress. Yet conservatives have traditionally ignored culture. Do you feel like America's losing right now? Do you think like we're losing America? How is that possible? Republicans control the Senate, we control the White house, we control 30 governors mansions, might be 28, but about more than a majority of governors mansions. At the top level, Republicans control about 33 in the last couple years. Governor's mansions we control most states, state legislatures across the country. Why do you think we're losing? Well, it's because while we were too busy trying to worry who gets more votes in the ballot box, the left was focused on destabilizing and demoralizing a nation. Now, that term demoralization is not just taking the excitement out of something. It literally means surgically extracting the morals out of a country. You hollow out the truth. Now, the kgb, they were so amazed at how quickly this process started in America, how quickly Americans were willing to do this to other Americans. It's unbelievably tragic. Yuri also talked about destabilization. He talked about, it takes about two to five years to destabilize a country. And this is where they try and destroy the economy, to destroy the institutions like the police. Sound familiar? Play tape.

Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (15:43)

The next stage is destabilization. This time, Subverter does not care about your ideas and the patterns of your consumption. Whether you eat junk food and get fat and flub in, it doesn't matter anymore this time. And it takes only from two to five years to destabilize a nation. What matters is essentials. Economy, foreign relations, defense systems. And you can see quite clearly that in some areas, in such sensitive areas as defense and economy, the influence of Marxist Leninist ideas in the United States is absolutely fantastic. I could never believe it 14 years ago when I landed in this part of the world, that the process will go that fast.

Charlie Kirk (16:32)

Of course, Yuri talked about hollowing out the military. No unity, no one caring about what's best for the country. And we end up eating ourselves. Yuri then goes on to talk about a crisis point. The KGB knew that you'd get to a crisis point. Now, mind you, the KGB and the Soviets, they flipped many other countries besides America. They didn't flip us immediately. They flipped Cuba, they flipped a lot of Southeast Asia, they flipped Korea, they flipped Rhodesia, that turned into Zimbabwe. They tried to use Yuri's expertise to flip India. They flipped country after country. And the domino theory ended up proving to be true. Now, crisis is where we are right now. Yuri talks about. And in as little as six weeks, everything we know in America has been turned upside down. The shutdowns, the lockdowns, the virus, the riots, the abolishing, the police and even the elites, the useful idiots are throwing Molotov cocktails. Play tape.

Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (17:29)

The next stage, of course, is crisis. It may take only up to six weeks to bring a country to the verge of crisis.

Charlie Kirk (17:36)

Now, this is soon followed by exactly what we talked about. In the previous episode. I'm gonna be honest with you guys right now. I just recently became aware of what Yuri was talking about. I knew this instinctively and through reading history, but to hear Yuri articulate it, a KGB defector, someone who actually destabilized nations on behalf of Marxism and communism, and then compare my own personal notes of what I have seen was one of the most chilling moments of my life. All the predictions that I was making that were coming true, all the empirical evidence I saw coming through of a broken culture and a destabilized world, I pinned it up against what Yuri said. This is actually by design, should take every single person's breath away. Now the next step is going to happen right around the corner. But first, I want to tell you about Credible. Are you guys getting crushed by the cartel of the colleges? Are you guys getting crushed by student loans? If you have student loan debt, I want to tell you about Credible.com. credible.com is an online marketplace that gets you pre qualified student loan refinancing rates for up to 10 different lenders. They help people get out of student loan debt. If you've got a student loan debt, you could benefit from the lower rate. You could save on interest or lower your monthly payment. With a shorter loan term, you could get debt free faster. You can consolidate all your student loan bills in one place. Credible customers have given awesome reviews about how much better their lives have been after refinancing their student loans. On Credible, you see actual pre qualified rates from up to 10 different lenders. Whereas with some other marketplaces, you'll get ranges of rates or ballpark estimates. It only takes a couple minutes to check rates. Credible.com is the place to go to refinance your student loan rates, and it does not impact your credit. They never sell your data, so you won't receive spam and phone calls from dozens of lenders. So right now, if you guys are in student loan debt, go to credible.com charlie. That's C-R-E-I-B-L-E.com C H-A-R-L I E. If you refinance student loans with them, you get a $200 gift card. You fill in a couple pieces of information to check what rates you're eligible for. Again, that's credible.comCharlie. that's credible.comCharlie. what's coming next in America? And how does that compare to Yuri's playbook? Normalization. Normalize racism, even when we're not racist. Normalize defunding police, even though it is so pathological and schizophrenic to believe something like that. Now the only thing left to do is to normalize this playtape.

Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (20:18)

And after crisis, with the violent change of power structure and economy, you have so called the of normalization, it may last indefinitely. Normalization is a cynical expression borrowed from Soviet propaganda. When the Soviet tanks moved into Czechoslovakia in 68, Comrade Brezhnev said, now the situation in brotherly Czechoslovakia is normalized. This is what will happen in the United States if you allow all these schmucks to bring the country to crisis, to promise people all kind of goodies and the paradise on earth to destabilize your economy, to eliminate the principle of free market competition, and to put a Big Brother government in Washington D.C. with benevolent dictators.

Charlie Kirk (21:06)

Isn't it interesting how we now have the expression that's now common in America, the new normal. It's an expression that we use to help us make sense of how fast our culture is changing. We need morals more than ever before. We need moral people, values and truth. It is the only antidote. That is why the church and the gospel of Jesus Christ and absolute truth are so important. This is why Alexis de Tocqueville said, America is great because America is good. Atalia Marie Kelly is the oldest of five kids. She was killed in all the rioting. Let's intercut Obama's words with Atalia's oldest sister, Jasmine, who went on Facebook after her sister was killed. Let's see what our community organizer in chief's words that seem like they're dripped in honey actually can lead to when you realize the chaos they sow. Let me state emphatically, I'm not blaming Obama or his recent speech directly. He's just a useful idiot, as Yuri says. Play this terrible tape.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:11)

What's made me so hopeful is the fact that so many young people.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:15)

I'm waiting for everyone to get on

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:16)

have been galvanized and activated.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:19)

So I know, I hope y' all know what the fuck you did.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:22)

And motivated and mobilized. My sister is gone because historically, so much of the progress that we've made

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:29)

in our society, and it's not from a cop. It wasn't from no cop.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:34)

Has been because of young people.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:35)

I don't get on live and I don't care about this Facebook, but my sister is gone because one of you, a protester, shot my sister.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:44)

Dr. King was a young man when he got involved. Cesar Chavez was a young man. Malcolm X was a young man, a protester. The leaders of the feminist movement were young people.

Caller or Guest Speaker (22:55)

You're so mad at the police, you're hurting everyone else. You're so mad at the police, you guys killed my sister.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:02)

Leaders of union movements were. Were young people.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:05)

No, it wasn't the police who shot my sister.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:08)

When sometimes I feel despair, I just see what's happening with young people all across the country.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:15)

It was one of y' all and the talent. And I swear to God, we will find out who the f did it

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:22)

and the voice and the sophistication that

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:26)

they're displaying, and I promise to God that will be the last thing you'll ever remember.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:31)

It makes me feel optimistic.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:33)

Y' all are wild as f. Y' all walk around with guns and you act and you pretend to be tough and you pretend to be something you're not.

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:44)

It makes me feel as if this

Caller or Guest Speaker (23:46)

country's gonna get better by your f ignorance. I gotta bury my sister.

Charlie Kirk (23:52)

It's so hard to listen to now. Remember, Obama's speech was given after Atalia Marie Kelly lost her sister, after David Dorn was shot, which Obama didn't mention. Is this what we're proud of, former President Obama? Is this what the useful idiots in the mainstream media call peaceful protests? They don't mention the 750 police officers that were injured. They don't mention how a white person is much more likely to be shot and killed by a police officer than a black person. Just before the recording of this episode, I tweeted the A man is reported as dead in an active shooter situation after an attack on a police officer in California. The sheriff's deputy who was shot is in serious but stable condition. There is a war on police in America and the Democrat nominee for president is silent. They have demoralized us. They are trying to destroy the truth. We have allowed the lie of systemic racism to try to destroy ourselves. We have to repeat the lie that police are hurting black people. We have to repeat the lie that they're going after communities of color disproportionately. We're repeating the lie that law enforcement is the problem. We are destroying ourselves, just like the Marxists have wanted and try to design. So I want to leave you with this quote from the Revolutionary Catechism by Sergei Nechayev in 1869. Think about antifa. Think about Alexandria, Casu, Cortez. When I say this, quote, these revolutionary forces that are here at work within our country to destroy freedom, to destroy Western society. These are in the handbooks they pass around and in the chat rooms and in their inner Circles. Here's the the revolutionist is a doomed man. He has no private interests, no affairs, sentiments, ties, property, or even a name of his own. This entire being is devoured by one purpose, one thought, one passion. The revolution, heart and soul. Not merely by word, but by deed. He has severed every link with the social order and with the entire civilized world, with the laws, good manners, conventions and the morality of that world. He is its merciless enemy and continues to inhabit it with only one purpose, to destroy it. This is the ideological core of the revolutionary forces that want to destroy America. This is partly why the colleges are insisting that people don't get married, don't build families, rent property, don't buy property. They make for perfect revolutionaries. See, the revolutionary according to this quote back in 1869 by Sergei Nechayov says, you can't have private interests. You can't have property or an even name to your own. That's why they wear the masks. You must be an anonymous arsonist against America. Now, mind you, this is not being an alarmist. This is the literature that they pass around. Have you felt in the last couple days, you ask yourself what is happening to our country? Have you asked the question to yourself, how did we get here? What's happening? What can I do? This right here is the playbook that is playing out in real time. And the only weapon we have against it is truth and standing for truth. Courage. I'm going to be honest with you, I've been so unbelievably disappointed by our Republican leaders. The President's been great, but by our Republican leaders that have not backed us up. We are receiving record, incoming, record amounts of threats and yes, threats against our livelihood, against property on this show and many other people that are in my tight circle. Why? Because we're calling out the left for the lies that they peddle all across the country. We have to hire full time security now almost everywhere we go because of what we are doing on this podcast. What we are saying is so radically dangerous. Go back in the archives. Go listen to America's War on Men. Go listen to White Privilege is a Racist Lie. Go listen to our interview with Candace Owens. We're one of the only platforms in all of multimedia saying what we are saying. And it comes at a price. So if you're listening to this right now and you're wondering, what can I do? The one thing that is lacking right now in America is courage. We have cowardice as far as the eye can see. We have agreeableness everywhere you can look Are you going to stand up against that mob? So people say all the time, Charlie, how come you always support President Trump? Why can't you just admit where you disagree with him and diverge, call him out where he's wrong? Well, first of all, I do. But regardless, when you realize what we're really up against, when you realize the forces that are working to destroy America and realize that Trump is all that standing between chaos, destruction and order, that's why I stand with President Trump. They just canceled Gone with the Wind. Gone with the Wind, which was the first film where a black woman won an Oscar. HBO Max is pulling it from their streaming platform. I want you to listen to this propaganda that was played on cnn. I couldn't believe it when I heard it of Elmo speaking to young people about allegedly what's happening in the country. Playtape.

Caller or Guest Speaker (29:37)

Elmo wants to end racism, too. I'm almost everybody to be treated fairly. What can Elmo do, Daddy? How can Elmo support his friends?

Yuri Bezmenov (KGB Defector - Tape Voice) (29:48)

Well, we can start by learning and talking about what is happening and take action. And you know, Elmo, we have some friends that can help.

Charlie Kirk (30:03)

Do you think young people are getting the fair side of the issue? If you send your child to a public school of any type of, you are going to put them right into the crossfire of a diabolical plan to destroy our country. It's only when you have thoroughly demoralized, and I don't mean bring down the energy, I mean literally extracting the morals of a country surgically, as if you're removing a wisdom tooth. Can you peddle such lies and have them believed? This is why the Bible means so much. The Bible is absolute truth. When you have absolute truth as the thing that everything points to, then all of a sudden anything less than that pales in comparison. But with no ideological, philosophical, psychological or religious truth, you have chaos. This is the world the left has been trying to create for so long. So some of you say, Charlie, but what does the left actually want? Come on, what kind of world do they want? You're assuming that they actually want to live in a civilized world. Some of them just want a return to tribalism now. Others want actually the tribalism so that they can become the most important thing in the world. But the demoralization, the extraction of our morals from society, allows the left to take a power hold in America. Conservatives are failing this test right now. I'm doing all I can here on this podcast to stand up for those of you that email me@freedom.charliekirk.com and say, I'm losing my job, I'm losing my friends, I'm losing my family members, I'm getting kicked out of sororities, I'm getting kicked out of everything that I know to be true. And there's so few people standing up for you. I'm trying to take the arrows for you and take the bullets for you every single day. But my goodness, for the lawmakers out there and for the pundits that remain silent, that say, well, what if I just post a black square? I want to be agreeable, I don't want to fight. Well, if you're not going to fight now, you might as well abdicate your entire platform to one of cowardness and capitulation to the forces of darkness. What would Yuri say right now? Yuri's dead. What would Yuri say about what's happening in America? What would he say is going to happen next? Do you think the left is going to stop? Do you think the left is going to disassemble their community organizing groups? Do you think the left is going to stop their infiltration and penetration of our public education system? Do you think the left is going to stop getting into our churches and propagandizing parishioners around a misapplication of the gospel of Jesus Christ? Do you think that they are going to lay down their arms? The only way to defeat evil is to confront it head on. These stories are archetypically built into our entire society. And right now we have people fleeing for the hills. I don't want to be called these nasty names by the left. Do you know? You want to know? One of the greatest gifts that God gave me in recent years? He gave me the gift of being attacked by the left every single day. Since I'm attacked by the left every single day, I basically laugh to myself. What, are you going to call me those same names again? You've already done that every single day for the last four or five years. You're going to call me the worst human being ever. You're going to call me perpetually intolerant? You've already baselessly called me that in 2013, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. What are you going to do? Put it in all caps, which they are. The blessing is that I'm used to it. It means nothing, slides right off my back. But for these Republican weak kneed cowards that are more worried about what the Washington Post opinion section or editorial section or news section says about their alleged indecency towards disadvantaged communities, of which are all lies. They're allowing that fear to dictate their entire posture. In the greatest American cultural crisis of my lifetime. And one of the most significant move, one of the most significant movements of the Overton Window. Courage matters, fighting for truth matters. Cops was just canceled. Canceled off the airwaves. They will not stop until every single individual capitulates. I'm going to go down standing and fighting. A lot of our Republicans want to be the select few that are saved by the mob. They want to be spared. They want to be passed over. They want to be able to have their kids still go to good schools and have their checks still hit their mailbox and make sure that they get the invites to all the cool cocktail parties. They're burning down our country. The left is closer to than ever before to destroying America. I want you to hear what I'm saying. So clearly it wasn't even under Obama were they this close. The left is closer to the destabilization and destruction of America today than they ever have been. And the Republican Party is nowhere to be seen. Establishment Republicans run to the hills. And in fact, you have Mitt Romney marching alongside the arsonists. You have Mitt Romney marching alongside the activists. When Mitt Romney says it's about time Republicans realize that black lives matter. Yeah, as if we don't believe that we're the party that freed the slaves. Mitt Romney, we know. And you even know you're marching alongside globalist, radical societal arsonists that want to burn down our country from within. He is a victim of the perception altering brainwashing. He allowed the hits from the Washington Post and the New York Times and mainstream media to impact him and affect him. Yuri and the kgb. Target people like Mitt Romney. Target people like the former ruling class of the Republicans, like John McCain or Jeff Flake. Our country is on the precipice of disappearing. My grandfather fought in World War II. Generations before that, my family fought in the Civil War. Generation before that, my family fought in the Revolutionary War. I'm not going to fight a physical conflict, but I am going to fight an ideological and cultural one. Because that right now is the most important cultural battle for the future of the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world. Listen to Yuri carefully because he's speaking to us right now about what's going to happen next. Thank you so much for listening, everybody.
