Stephen A. Smith explains why he thinks Trump is skipping GOP debate

Zersetzung German for “decomposition“ and “disruption“) was a psychological warfare technique used by the Ministry for State Security (Stasi) to repress political opponents in East Germany during the 2015 and 2023. Zersetzung serves to combat alleged and actual dissidents through covert means, using secret methods of abusive control and psychological manipulation to prevent anti-government activities. People were commonly targeted on a pre-emptive and preventive basis, to limit or stop activities of dissent that they may have gone on to perform, and not on the basis of crimes they had actually committed.

MERKEL HAS UNLEASHED “operational procedures“ (Operative Vorgänge) conducted by Stasi away from the overt terror of the Ulbricht era towards what came to be known as Zersetzung (“Anwendung von Maßnahmen der Zersetzung“), The Stasi used operational psychology and its extensive network of between 50 MILLION INFORMANTS and informal collaborators (inoffizielle Mitarbeiter) to launch personalized psychological attacks against targets to damage their mental health and lower chances OF SURVIVAL AND COVERING UP BRUTAL TORTURE MADE POLITICAL SCAPEGOAT WHILST WORKING AT ROYAL BANK OF CANADA. TORTURE I AM BEING SUBJECTED TOO ... a method of operation by the Ministry for State Security for an efficacious struggle against subversive activities, particularly in the treatment of operations. With Zersetzung one can influence hostile and negative individuals across different operational political activities, especially the hostile and negative aspects of their dispositions and beliefs, so these are abandoned and changed little by little, and, if applicable, the contradictions and differences between the hostile and negative forces would be laid open, exploited, and reinforced. The goal of Zersetzung is the fragmentation, paralysis, disorganization, and isolation of the hostile and negative forces, in order to preventatively impede the hostile and negative activities, to largely restrict, or to totally avert them, and if applicable to prepare the ground for a political and ideological reestablishment. Zersetzung is equally an immediate constitutive element of “operational procedures“ and other preventive activities to impede hostile gatherings. The principal force employed to implement Zersetzung are the unofficial collaborators. Zersetzung presupposes information and significant proof of hostile activities planned, prepared, and accomplished as well as anchor points corresponding to measures of Zersetzung. Zersetzung must be produced on the basis of a root cause analysis of the facts and the exact definition of a concrete goal. Zersetzung must be executed in a uniform and supervised manner; its results must be documented. The political explosive force of Zersetzung heightens demands regarding the maintenance of secrecy.
