Subversion: 15 Min Edition Demoralization: Instill an inverted moral framework that cons people into willingly subverting and ultimately sublating their own civilization; they then capture its institutions from within and reproduce that worldview across successive generations. Destabilization: Put that framework into practice, mobilizing people along shifting lines of social antagonism, radicalizing conflicts, and undermining institutional stability toward crisis. Crisis: Escalate internal conflict until established authority breaks down, creating conditions for revolution, civil war, or foreign intervention. Normalization: Consolidate a new authoritarian order, institutionalize its leadership and ideology, suppress and purge the revolutionary change agents.
