Zersetzung - The East German Secret Police Methodology of Psychological Decomposition

The Stasi used Zersetzung essentially as a means of psychological oppression and persecution. Findings of operational psychology were formulated into method at the Stasi’s College of Law and applied to political opponents in an effort to undermine their self-confidence and self-esteem.

Operations were designed to intimidate and destabilise them by subjecting them to repeated disappointment, and to socially alienate them by interfering with and disrupting their relationships with others as in social undermining. The aim was to induce personal crises in victims, leaving them too unnerved and psychologically distressed to have the time and energy for anti-government activism. The Stasi intentionally concealed their role as mastermind of the operations. Author Jürgen Fuchs was a victim of Zersetzung and wrote about his experience, describing the Stasi’s actions as “psychosocial crime”, and “an assault on the human soul”.

Gang Stalking

Usually before Gang Stalking begins the targeted individual may at first be placed under covert forms of surveillance. The person will probably be monitored 24/7. Foot patrols and vehicle patrols maybe used to follow the individual as well as electronic means as part of the monitoring, psychological profiling process. Once the psychological profile is complete, the Gang Stalking can commence.

Gang Stalking generally originates from when a covert investigation is opened on an individual and teams of plain clothes police officers, citizen informants/snitches and snoopers are deployed to obsessively harass the targeted individual usually to an extreme degree.

What is Gang Stalking

It is called Gang Stalking because the target is overtly followed by teams of Gang Stalkers and placed under intrusive surveillance by groups of organised individuals, such as under cover police officers, police informants, snitches, snoopers, neighbourhood watch groups etc. Many Targeted Individuals are harassed and placed under surveillance and psychological influence operations in this manner for months, or even years before they realise that they are being targeted by an organised protocol of harassment.

What happens during overt methods of surveillance and stalking is very similar to what happened to many innocent individuals in the former East Germany, or activists and dissidents in Russia and many other countries. Millions of people in the former East Germany were targeted by these harassment programs. Their friends, family and the community at large would be used to monitor, persecute, and harass them. In Russia it was used by the state to declare activists, dissidents or anyone they thought to be an enemy of the state as mentally unfit and many were institutionalised using this form of systemic control. See Psychiatric Reprisal The closest oppressive program to Gang Stalking that was witnessed in the UK were the Black & Tans in Northern Ireland, McCarthyism in the US, Cointelpro (FBI), and Red (Guard) Squad programs in RUSSIA. However, it appears unusual that COINTELPRO in the USA and the East German Stasi started their counter intelligence programs at around the same time in the 1950's, which had been devised from the Russian Secret Police the Cheka after the revolution in 1917.

Red Squad programs were used for monitoring and the harassment of various groups. Along with the Russian Secret Police the Cheka they were responsible for the elimination of over 66 million targets. Civilian Spies also known as “Covert Human Intelligence Sources” are recruited from every level and sector of society. Just like with Cointelpro investigations everyone in the targets life is made a part of this ongoing never ending systemic psychological harassment, influence and manipulation of the targeted individual. These actions are specifically designed to control the target with the aim of keeping them in line or their psychological destruction (Zersetzung). These actions can also be designed to destroy the target over time, make them look crazy and leave them with no form of support as the stress and anxiety of such programs tends to the target isolating themselves.
For the targets of this harassment Gang Stalking is experienced as a covert psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual form of attack that is capable of immobilizing and destroying a target over time. For the state it’s a way to keep the targets in line, control them, psychologically program them over a period of time and attempt to destroy them. The people conducting these programs have now been identified as having pathological psychopathy - and are a part of the "Psychopathic Control Grid".

Worldwide programs of control and conformity have been used with equal success and lethality. What we are seeing now is a globally co-ordinated and organised effort of control and conformity. Many countries around the world are currently using a model of policing called Community Oriented Policing. It’s described as a systemic approach to policing. It focuses on instilling a sense of community within a geographically located neighborhood. Communities come together and discuss what values they would like to have in their community, and it’s also a time to discuss problem individuals the police have identified in a specific area. The Police will usually then use smear campaigns in attempts to character assassinate the targeted individual and a bogus investigation will be opened. Police informants and local citizens can then be easily directed to harass the targeted individual. These local programs in many countries have been forming partnerships with other government run programs at local, regional and national levels. In Eastern block countries community orientated policing was used by the police to run communities with an iron fist using intimidation and harassment using police informants. It is this model of policing that many Targeted Individuals have complained that is being abused to recruit informants for use in gang stalking.

This modern day systemic form of control harassment or more precisly - Covert Warfare could only be funded at higher governmental levels just like it has been in other countries since at least 1917 where similar types of harassment programs have been implemented.

It’s all part of a system of control and conformity that has been in place for decades, and in some cases centuries. A system of control with many local groups and appendages taking part.

Many do not understand or care that the end consequence of this harassment protocol is to destroy a person.

Quote on the systematic terrorizing of individuals:

“Organized Stalking is a form of terrorism used against an individual in a malicious attempt to reduce the quality of a person’s life so they will: have a nervous break-down, become imprisoned, institutionalized, experience constant mental, emotional, or physical pain, become homeless, and/or commit suicide. This is done using well-orchestrated accusations, lies, rumors, bogus investigations, setups, framings, intimidation, overt or covert threats, vandalism, thefts, sabotage, torture, humiliation, emotional terror and general harassment. It is a “ganging up” by members of the community who follow an organised method and participate in a systematic “terrorizing” of an individual.”

What are the goals of Gang Stalking?

The usual goal is to isolate the target from all forms of support so that the target can be set up in the future for arrest, institutionalisation or forced suicide. This may seem far fetched to those who have not experienced Gang Stalking but this is generally the intended goal. Other goals of this harassment is to destroy the targets reputation and credibility to make the target look crazy or unstable.
 
Other goals involve sensitizing the target to every day stimulus as a form of control( classical conditioning) which is used to control targets when they get out of line. Once the target is sensitized to certain stimuli or locations the gang stalking programmers will find it easier to elevate stress and anxiety levels.
 
These programs are designed to make the targets of this harassment vulnerable to stress and anxiety over a period of time as any stalking victim will acknowledge. The secondary goals seems to be to make the target homeless, jobless, enable a mental breakdown, and the primary goals seems to be to drive the target to forced suicide just like what they did with some of the targets of Cointel. It’s a useful way of eliminating perceived enemies of the state. Since the turn of the 19th century, tens of millions have died as a result of gang stalking.
