Peter Strzok and the New York Times on American political dissent

Everything you believe was invented by the FSB, unless you agree with me

Sorry for the delay but I’ve been working on a paid piece that is becoming rather long and unwieldly. Here’s an incomplete thoughtlet on American countersubversion policy to tide you over.

FSB Indictment

Steve Sailer summarized a recent article in the New York Times detailing a DOJ indictment against a Russian FSB agent for using “American political groups” to “sow discord and interfere with elections”.[i] The FSB agent conspired against our country by providing minor assistance to American political groups that already exist. As Sailer points out, the Times does its best to bury the lede on the nature of these groups, which seem to include left-leaning Black ethnonarcissism groups. This is still more honest than the publications astroturfed on reddit, like Business Insider, which only reported on the FSB’s $500 donation to the California secession movement.[ii]

The article Sailer summarizes includes an “expert” opinion from the infamous former FBI agent, Peter Strzok. The purpose of the FSB providing support to an existing legitimate political group, according to Strzok, is to “heighten grievances” and “create strife and division.” The underlying assumption here is that these “American political groups” should be marginal or not exist at all absent Russian interference, because the only organic political opinions in America originate from a reasonable center.

Strzok and the Espionage Machine Party

The public text message exchanges between Strzok and DOJ lawyer Lisa Page during the 2016 election revealed the following statement from Strzok

“He was pretty much calling for death for Snowden. I’m a single-issue voter. ;) Espionage Machine Party.”[iii]

The Espionage Machine Party is of course the same “Deep State” that has been amplified to levels of godlike organization and omnipotence by paranoid schizophrenics, 102 IQ conspiracy podcasts, and other pop culture drones. The reality is of course quite different. Based on what we know from internal documents like Strzok’s text messages, the Espionage Machine Party is like most political machines: disorganized, cynically focused on networking and career advancement, guided by mass media propaganda when it actually focuses on politics, and enormously paranoid.

The paranoia is likely the result of projection by the machine of its own internal self-dealing and conspiring onto the outside world, but also the countersubversion ideological model that animates the Espionage Machine Party’s approach to legitimate dissent.

The model begins with something like Eric Hoffer’s The True Believer, which Hillary Clinton regularly mentioned during her 2016 campaign. The book reduces mass political dissent across the political spectrum to a set of psychological types and suggests that the content of dissent is irrelevant to the motivations of mass movements (Hoffer points to Saul/Paul switching from being an anti-Christian fanatic to a Christian fanatic in the Bible as an example). Models like Hoffer’s include a psychological profile of a conspiratorial leadership cadre that is self-aggrandizing and/or fueled by ulterior motives. When this model is combined with the paranoia of foreign policy realism and espionage, the Espionage Machine Party’s ideology becomes a state sponsored conspiracy theory. The fruits of this ideology became most apparent with the disastrous “Russiagate” astroturf campaign that tried and failed to reduce the populist dissent capitalized upon Donald Trump to a Russian conspiracy.

For various reasons, this ideology on its own is problematic. We’ll explore some of those reasons in future posts. A primary flaw that I want to focus on here is the immense hypocrisy with which the ideology is wielded by the Espionage Machine Party, as exhibited in the text exchanges between Strzok and Lisa Page, which famously showed Page declaring that the DOJ would stop Trump from taking office.

The exchanges between Strzok and Page illustrate that the non-extreme center essential to the Espionage Machine Party model doesn’t exist. Rather, the rational center is haunted by fanatics who type their opinions in all-capitals, and the spineless men who defer to those fanatics.

For example, we can see Strzok himself harbors prejudice toward a specific class of dissident in the following text to Page:

“Just went to a southern Virginia Walmart. I could SMELL the Trump support…”

But Strzok’s extremism pales in comparison to Page’s.

Consistent with the paranoid style of the Espionage Machine Party, Page hears racist dog whistles everywhere. When discussing Trump’s rhetoric on immigration, rather than countenancing legitimate grievances about our lax and incoherent federal immigration policy that allows the importation of low-information voters en masse, Page notes:

Nope. Full of dog whistles too: "We do not want this election

stolen from us. Everybody knows what I'm talking about." The

racism is barelv even veiled anymore.

In an exchange between Page and Strzok on a Times fluff piece about valedictorian Mexican girls, Page reveals that she believes half the population (the GOP) is filled with bigoted hatred:

When Strzok suggests that affirmative action might displace qualified candidates, Page (OUTBOX) adds the following ignorant, bigoted opinion:

Here we see evidence of a direct connection between the ideologies of the “American political groups” supported by the FSB in the Times article summarized by Sailer and the ideology animating the DOJ’s biased attitude toward Donald Trump and his supporters, who comprise half the country by Page’s own admission. The question we should be asking is: who is radicalizing the DOJ?

Strzok (INBOX below) sheepishly suggests affirmative action gave the girls a leg up, but he’s quickly browbeaten back into submission by Page’s fanaticism:

Strzok’s jellyfish-like ambivalence is typical of men in government. When paired with the fanatcisim of Page types, you get the paranoid, hypocritical policies of the Espionage Machine Party.

Who else is sowing discord in America?

If Russia is sowing discord by promoting Black ethnonarcissism. What other foreign-aligned organizations are interfering with our democracy?

The ADL is a global organization openly aligned with Zionism and the state of Israel. It regularly insinuates itself into local educational efforts through government contracts to educate Americans about bigotry and racism. Recently, the ADL came under fire when it was revealed that they were promoting the following anti-white ethnonarcissistic definition of racism:

“The marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges white people.”[i]

The ADL adopted this definition during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots that espoused ideologies similar to the ideology of the “American political groups” promoted by the FSB. According to the indictment summarized in Sailer’s article:

“Mr. Ionov paid for the St. Petersburg group to conduct a four-city protest tour supporting a “Petition on Crime of Genocide Against African People in the United States,” which the group had previously submitted to the United Nations at his direction.”

The ADL, like Strzok and Page, is presumed to be a reflection of the normal center protecting America against conspiracies and extremism.
