SAFEGUARDING HUMAN DIGNITY: Was this an impossible aspect following the fall of the Nazi regime in East Germany?
“Between gods and men, territories are set up. At least in the no-man’s land of the heights of heaven, the depths of hell, and inside the boundary traced by the oceans. Dimensions installed by a cosmogonic trilogy that leaves each term in its generic place. There remains the earth ancestress, a fourth term, that was once the most fertile, that has been progressively buried and forgotten beneath the architectonic of patriarchal sovereignty. And this murder erupts in the form of ambivalences that have constantly to be solved and hierarchized, in twinned pairs of more or less good doubles.”
― Luce Irigaray, Marine Lover of Friedrich Nietzsche
The purpose of criminal codes is to safeguard the dignity of humankind, its freedom, and rights under a country’s constitution which dictates the behavior of its citizens. However, in 1951 under Stasi rule, the codified offenses for which East German citizens were prosecuted and imprisoned were unique to totalitarian regimes, both fascist and communist. Victims to forms of this particular perversion of justice were usually persons who had requested legal exit permits from the German Democratic Republic (DDR) authorities but who were turned down. In many cases, their “crime” was having contact with a Western consulate to inquire about immigration procedures. Sentences of up to two and a half years’ hard labor were not unusual as punishment for such inquiries. Similar injustices among business partnerships and intimate partner relationships display similar forms of deviance and perversion.
For this reason, it makes absolutely no sense for Targeted Individuals to claim gang stalking, electronic targeted assaults, and advanced military weapons are being used against them, as American citizens, by the US government. At least that is my opinion. What is causing the phenomenon of the Targeted Individual is closely tied to intimate partner relationships, stalking by someone the individual knew or had past business dealings with. In most cases of successfully prosecuted stalking cases, the perpetrators have been someone the victim knew or had a former business or romantic relationship with. In my case, this places several individuals on the front stage in my theatrical production called “Life.” Since going to the Mercer County Prosecutors Office and reporting sexual assault, I have experienced stalking type of behavior, gang stalking, and electronic targeted assaults. But I make no claim that the federal government is doing it. The people from my past weren’t “nice people.” In fact, the twisted code of membership in gangs doesn’t make sense to anyone outside the gang. I term this twisted code of logic “mafia mentality.” In gang mentality, individuals are brutally attacked and killed because the individual didn’t follow the rules of gang membership. There is no world where those thought processes and behaviors are okay. Luce Irigaray spoke on the slippage between the murder of self and the soul in one of her feminist writing:
“Vengeance is practiced, outside of laws or rights, in the form of aggression that may or may not be preconcerted. Thus, a sort of international vendetta is set up, present more or less everywhere, which disorients the female populace, the groups and micro-societies which are in the process of being formed. Real murders take place as part of it, but also (insofar as they can be distinguished) cultural murders, murders of the mind, emotions, and intelligence.”
Gang stalking is exactly what the East German Secret Police carried out on the East German populace through their techniques of “Zersetzung” (corrosion). These techniques were employed as a form of coercive control over problem political dissidents. These same techniques are used by male batterers who tightly control their wives' behavior because they suffer from a form of delusional paranoia. It is the same techniques that are carried out through gang stalking and electronic targeted assaults. Victims being harassed by some veiled presence become convinced it’s the US government behind it in experimental research programs pertaining to mind control projects, testing new military weapons, and/or new government eavesdropping technologies, etc.
“When victims are used as props to symbolize something for the benefit of the terrorist group, and when one of the more striking features of terrorism is that it always lays claim to virtue by claiming it is confronted with some form of terrible violence, repression, and cruelty and thereby seeks to use those same techniques to destroy an unjust system than what we see is violence masquerading as virtue and revenge impersonating “the rule of law.”
The faux pas of the 1945 peace negotiations, the Allied peace conferences that took place at Yalta and Potsdam to determine the fate of Germany’s territories, was its failure to anticipate the mass oppression and silencing of its political free thinkers. When they handed power over to the Soviet Union, granting communist occupation, what formed was a secret police force even more sinister than the former Gestapo. Engaging in “propaganda hostile to the state” was a punishable offense. To ensure that the people would become and remain submissive, East German communist leaders saturated their realm with more spies than had any other totalitarian government in recent history. The ratio for the Stasi was one secret policeman per 166 East Germans. It is estimated, when combined with regular secret civilian informers, there was at least one spy watching every 66 citizens! Add to this number the amount of part-time snoops and the result would be one spy for every 6.5 citizens. The level of paranoia is unprecedented during the modern common era. From the tapping of phone lines to regulations that required families to report overnight guests to the authorities, the Stasi knew no limits and had no shame for “protecting the party of the state.” Offices and confessional booths in churches were infested with eavesdropping devices.
Absolutely nothing was sacred to the East German Secret Police. These techniques are similar to the techniques employed in gang staling, electronic targeting (GPS tracking and spyware), electronic targeted assaults, and cyberwarfare. The Stasi infiltrated apartments, bedrooms, even bathrooms by boring holes in the wall and setting up secret surveillance cameras that recorded civilian activity. The Stasi, and those who infiltrate the private lives of individual citizens, demonstrate the sinister side of deutsche Grundlichkeit (German thoroughness). This is the clandestine side of intelligence and information gathering used to protect “the state’s” best interests.
Similar nonsense questions particular to American political affairs is, “Is the government causing Asian hatred and violence against Asians by calling China a threat?” We do not live in a totalitarian regime. We live in a democracy in which one is free to express their opinions about China’s lack of transparency, especially in investigations regarding the Coronavirus. There is a debated conflict between whether China really let us “see” the actual records on what transpired in their country in September 2020, intimations suggesting a cover-up, or whether there are a bunch of unanswered questions, and a lack of willingness on the China government to allow further World Health Organization investigations into the various farms that supplied the animals to Wuhan Market. It always comes down to two important questions, Who is telling the truth? And, Who is covering up a lie?
After the fall of the Berlin wall and the fall of the East German regime, before unification could take place, Germans would have to speak of Vergangenheitsbewdltigung (“coming to grips with the past”). Suffering from a troubled and oppressed past, meant Germans would need to arrive at forgiveness or at least find some form of redemption and this is no different for those individuals victimized by gang stalking and electronic targeted assaults. To be reunited with one’s peaceful past existence, in the life they lived before the assaults and oppression, requires a “fall” of the superior power that must take place, and one must address accountability for the crimes committed by the fallen empire. This is what the International War Crimes Tribunal in Nurnberg was assigned to address following the close of World War II. After the East German regime fell, even in the face of thousands of political trials and human rights abuses that were well documented, the German judicial authorities scrupulously avoided the appearance of waging witch-hunts or using the law as a weapon of vengeance. This lack of accountability was particularly difficult for those who suffered under East German rule. In a similar vein, the phenomenon of gang stalking and electronic targeted assaults appears accurately poised in its actions as waging vengeful witch-hunts carried out by some veiled Inquisitors from the medieval past. Arbitrarily dishing out assaults because of some absolute monarch’s requirement for totalitarian control.
One might attribute the fall of the East German regime to political and economic difficulties the country was experiencing. It had to look to West Germany for a loan just to pay its interest payments. One might call East Germany’s failure in communism its “fatal knot.” This often happens when long-term war drains a country’s resources as it did in Napoleon’s Peninsula War and the Vietnam War.
Now apply the following terms from this essay to individual history and individual psychology:
Safeguarding Human Dignity (Are the people involved interested in safeguarding human dignity?)
Totalitarian rule (Are the people involved engaging in a form of totalitarian rule?)
Retribution for making legal inquiries to the authorities (Are victims suffering retribution for rightful and legal inquires?)
Mafia mentality (Do any of the individuals involved demonstrate a form of “mafia mentality?” e.g., modes of narcissism)
Gang Violence (Are the tactics of discipline similar to gang stalking tactics and discipline?)
Zersetzung (Are these individuals engaging in campaigns that seek to frighten and intimidate while unnerving their victims into silent submission?)
Vergangenheitsbewdltigung (Is someone failing in “coming to grips with the past?”)
