Tactics of cointelpro and gangstalking

Local sheriffs must  "take back their authority" from the Feds in the District of Criminals. The rubes in the Midwest and hinterlands are way too trusting of the Guvment. Well, lately, the rubes have seen what the Guvment has done to their money; maybe the rubes will figure out that the Corrupt Center has also busted their liberties and is in the process of putting 360 million Americans in an EMF prison.

Hi DD, I'm all for restoring our civil liberties. We needed them in 1776, we need them now too!

File lawsuits against the low-life ground muscle, the "gangstalkers?"  Great advice -- if you wish to drain the target of resources and energy.  Which apparently you do, as you appear to me to be another of the growing legion of NowPublic disinformation paid military contractor agit-prop psyops agents.

The fish rots from the head down.  Aim high.  That's what I've done.  And it's working.

The Justice Department ought to promise immunity to the Terrorist Task Force Managers who will testify in court. The Justice Department ought to give an address for victims, so that the latter can send them the NAMES of the harassers, which are KNOWN because part of the METHOD is to torture-to-your-face and laugh at your inability to prove anything. Well, a bunch of sharp lawyers armed with immunity versus jail time could learn a lot by going after the Terrorism Task Force Dupes.

The attack report posted below, timestamped Tue Jan 17 @12:06am, WILL NOT POST to my Facebook page (Vic Livingston) as a Status Update.  I get obviously counterfeit message, "This message cannot be posted to this Wall." THE LOCKHEED CENSORS MUST BELIEVE THIS ONE REVEALS WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING HERE -- why else the real-time censorship?

ELECTROMAGNETIC TORTURE UPDATE Tue Jan 17 @ 12:06am  LOCKHEED MARTIN OPERATIVES  IN FORCED SLEEP ATTACK ON JOURNALIST  -- FOLLOWED BY E-ATTACK INDUCING HEART PALPITATIONS, W/U.S. CELL TOWER WEAPON SYSTEM (U.S. Patent 7629918, Raytheon). Watching Letterman, could not fight off severe ear-ringing RF neuromodulation attack inducing consciousness loss.  Attack began @11:50pm when Simon Baker was introduced; awoke to severe ear-ringing @12:06 am just as Baker’s interview ended – BUT ALL PERCEPTION OF PASSAGE OF TIME WAS ABSENT.  This happens each time these war criminals rob me of free will and enslave me with U.S. weapon system.  THEN SAVAGE HEART FIBRILLATION ATTACK causing rapid heartbeat, a sense of impending heart attack.  THIS IS HOW THESE MURDERERS CAN KILL WITH IMPUNITY, COMMIT THE PERFECT CRIME. Wife of a neighbor who is a Jewish Bucks County judge suffered from similar symptoms, got pacemaker.  I have reason to believe that the Jew-haters who are conducting a slow-kill genocide have that family under e-assault and community black ops vigilante attack too – but they refuse to believe that could happen here.  It can;  it has; NO ONE WILL STOP AMERICA’S HATE-FUELED SILENT GENOCIDE.  See http://Vic Livingston.blogspot.com.   

NOTE:  I HAVE BEEN BLOCKED, CENSORED, FROM POSTING MY LATEST ELECTROMAGNETIC ATTACK REPORT HERE.  WHY?  BECAUSE THAT REPORT ILLUSTRATES IN DETAIL HOW A U.S. WEAPON SYSTEM IS BEING COVERTLY AND HEINOUSLY MISUSED TO CONDUCT A SLOW-KILL GENOCIDE AIMED AT THE TRADITIONAL TARGETS OF HATE-MONGERS THROUGHOUT THE AGES.

READ IT AT http://VicLivingston.blogspot.com where it APPEARS to have posted -- unless the censors wish to take it down at will, which they can and often do.

 

 

ELECTROMAGNETIC TORTURE UPDATE Mon Jan 16 @ 11:22pm  LOCKHEED MARTIN OPRATIVES UP AMPLITUDE OF PROLONGED RADIO FREQUENCY ATTACK ON JOURNALIST W/U.S. CELL TOWER DIRECTED ENERGY WEAPON SYSTEM (U.S. Patent 7629918, Raytheon).  Now, right ear BURNING CRIMSON RED, extreme ear-ringing, aching eyes, degraded vision, weakness, head pain – PRECISION-TARGETED TORTURE, IMPAIRMENT, SUBJUGATION, INDUCTION OF LONG-TERM HARM, SLOW-KILL GENOCIDE.  These psychopaths have a U.S. gov’t license to commit crimes against humanity camouflaged as surveillance.  Law enforcement totally complicit, will not stop torture or near- nightly home invasions.  FOUND MORE EVIDENCE OF SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY; Lockheed keeps targets in deep sleep state via electromagnetic RF neuromodulation attack while Lockheed coordinated community policing black ops vigilantes terrorize, vandalize, home invade.  Lower Makefield Twp. Police, county DA’s office, FBI all have refused pleas for a hate crimes investigation.  THEY ARE COMPLICIT BY THEIR MALFEASANCE AND DERELICTION OF DUTY.  See http://VicLivingston.blogspot.com, “U.S. Silently Tortures” and “Thugocracy.”

ELECTROMAGNETIC TORTURE REPORT Mon Jan 16 @ 12:32pm  LOCKHEED MARTIN IN CONSTANT LOW-AMPLITUDE BRAIN/BODY RADIO FREQUENCY ATTACK ON JOURNALIST W/U.S. CELL TOWER MICROWAVE DIRECTED ENERGY WEAPON SYSTEM (U.S. Patent 7629918, Raytheon).  Now, ear-ringing burning pain to crown of head, constant attack induces pain, vertigo, inability to think/concentrate, eye floaters, degraded vision and hearing and physical health.  TORTURE, IMPAIRMENT, SUBJUGATION COMMITTED BY MILITARY CONTRACTOR TAKING ORDERS FROM GOVERNMENT WAR CRIMINALS.  Awoke to similar symptoms, how psychopath torturers use RF neuromodulation to keep targets in deep sleep state as Lockheed- coordinated black ops community policing vigilantes home invade, vandalize, terrorize, gaslight, despoil.   Car vandalized yesterday in Ewing Twp NJ near Trenton – Lockheed operatives apparently unlocked car via RF, “gangstalkers” poured bottled water into cup holder console. Attacks emanate from Lockheed Mission & Combat Support Solutions centcoms in Valley Forge PA, biometrics centcom in Cherry Hill NJ, possibly Aerospace division under USAF Cyber Command in Newtown, Bucks County, PA, also HQ of MAGLOCLEN-RISS Fusion Center, a serial violator of Americans’ constitutional/civil rights.

Looks like a hacker subtly edited the article I left,  I just re-edited.

The above tactics are sickening, esp when directed at someone who has not done significantly WRONG and never will. Just the same these tactics can make a innocent person 'fluff up their feathers'. That's natural, Targets will do that sometimes. We need to try to Re-LAX though, and make that our natural state of being.  One of the few real Targets I encounted online gave me some great advice, she said "just keep smiling at people!" It was really important to me and has been useful more times that I can say. Try it and you'll see what I mean.

Targets get selected for this for many different reasons, every real Target I've met online, has not deserved it. One was a Teacher that stood up for the students against policies and changes that she felt undermined the school district. Another was a bright psychology student at a good university that fell prey to a pernicious SIG that didn't like her kind (white gentile). Both of these women went through governmentally orchestrated torture as a result. Gangstalking should be reserved for real-threats, and even the real-threats should have their civil liberties respected. It's possible. What is happening here is something unAmerican to it's core. Just stay strong, don't make it easy on the gangstalkers, keep living a positive life.

Note to the people who may become Loughners and Kazinskys out there: Violence is the fastest way to invalidate an entire cause, if you turn to violence understand you are being pawned -by the gangstalkers! Gangstalkers want us to be violent because they can run to Uncle Sam and say "see told you so, now give me more money to fund us, so we can stop them!" The pen is mightier than the sword, we all must contact our elected officials and rally support from the masses to gain real change.

This Torture Matrix is a torture system for whistleblowers and a test system for ongoing MK Ultra testing on the unwitting US population of guinea pigs. The gangstalkers THINK that they're the ones torturing the victim . . .well, they are . . . but the gangstalkers are ALSP being secretly tortured -- becauseit's all one big experiment in control and one big program of genocide to rid the country of anyone minded to resist the control (and that includes the gangstalkers and their duped cop managers).  The lowlife gangstalkers are despised by the Psychopaths who have invented the layers of this Torture Matraix. The Psychos know that, given many people's eagerness to do harm to others, the Psychos can always replenish their stocks of stalkers, so stakers are expendable -- and always readily available for torture. The local cops who manage the gangstalkers THINK they're immune to the torture because they're on the TEAM.  They're NOT on the team -- only the Head Psychopaths are on the team -- and sometimes even the Head Psychos are discarded, when they're old and know too much (as in William Casey's brain tumor; Edward Kennedy's brain tumor; William Colby's drowning, Ronald Reagan's Alzheimers, etc ).

Interesting that Nowpublic is the hub of articles on this stuff.  I guess the website is up in wacky Vancouver.  That's great that Vancouver and Canada isn't as nazi-ish as the U.S. who wouldn't allow these articles to be published.  Anyway, as soon as you seem to be a resister of the increasing TSA/ DHS mega corportate-military-industrial-global government complex, by say objecting to being sexually assaulted by a rentacop at the airport or now border, they start gangstalking you.  The DHS will give a contract to Lockheed who manages teams of gangstalkers.  Gangstalkers can be retired military, christians, 9-5ers, public or private workers,  utility workers, flash mobbers, ipod generation kids, whoever..  First they goofyly clown you and spy on you, then the RF microwave attacks begin and can last several years.  I don't know any of this for certain, but it seems to be the case.  The military companys rent airtime at cell towers, or maybe they use drones and torture you.  If you call the cops they threaten to take you to a psych jail.  All your family and friends stop talking to you because they assume your schizo, paranoid, or a bad person.. and there you go.  But keep resisting the police state, fight as much as you can. We might as well fight now rather than being herded off to FEMA camp after 'going with the flow' and exterminated.  It seems obvious that this is the direction we are headed.

The Genocidal Torture Matrix is torturing so many US citizens on the sly that the Spin Doctors recently invented an entirely new disease called Sjogen's Disease to account for the astronomical increase in US citizens suffering from (the microwave-induced) joint pain, dry mouth, etc. The sneaky, back-stabbing Military Psycho types have been secretly directing these rays at dissidents, whistleblowers, and, yes, even real terrorist groups, for over fifty years. In the 1970s and 80s the Soviets bombarded the American embassy with the microwaves and the diplomats and their families got all kinds of cancers and other disabilities from the exposure. The US spies knew it was happpening but did not warn the diplomats and their famlies. Why?  I'm guessing but I'd say that the Soviets would have announced that its embassy in the US was also being bombarded.    It's hard to say which murderous side of the Constant Warfare State "started" it -- the Soviets or the Americans. Given our superior abilities in technology and media deception, I'd guess that the Americans  invented the method and its social applications -- and the Soviets eagerly imitated it. Apparently an ex-military guy named Barry Trower has written extensively on this topic. As a species, it appears that we're doomed; too many of us are willing murderers.

Psychological manipulation is a type of social influence that aims to change the perception or behavior of others through underhanded, deceptive, or even abusive tactics. By advancing the interests of the manipulator, often at the other's expense, such methods could be considered exploitative, abusive, devious, and deceptive. Social influence is not necessarily negative. For example, doctors can try to persuade patients to change unhealthy habits. Social influence is generally perceived to be harmless when it respects the right of the influenced to accept or reject it, and is not unduly coercive. Depending on the context and motivations, social influence may constitute underhanded manipulation.

 

Requirements for successful manipulation According to George K. Simon, successful psychological manipulation primarily involves the manipulator:

 

1.concealing aggressive intentions and behaviors.

2.knowing the psychological vulnerabilities of the victim to determine what tactics are likely to be the most effective.

3.having a sufficient level of ruthlessness to have no qualms about causing harm to the victim if necessary.

Consequently the manipulation is likely to be covert (relational aggressive or passive aggressive).

 

Braiker identified the following basic ways that manipulators control their victims:

 

Positive reinforcement: includes praise, superficial charm, superficial sympathy (crocodile tears), excessive apologizing; money, approval, gifts; attention, facial expressions such as a forced laugh or smile; public recognition.

Negative reinforcement: involves removing one from a negative situation as a reward, e.g. "You won't have to walk home if you allow me to do this to you."

Intermittent or partial reinforcement: Partial or intermittent negative reinforcement can create an effective climate of fear and doubt. Partial or intermittent positive reinforcement can encourage the victim to persist - for example in most forms of gambling, the gambler is likely to win now and again but still lose money overall.

Punishment: includes nagging, yelling, the silent treatment, intimidation, threats, swearing, emotional blackmail, the guilt trip, sulking, crying, and playing the victim.

Traumatic one-trial learning: using verbal abuse, explosive anger, or other intimidating behavior to establish dominance or superiority; even one incident of such behavior can condition or train victims to avoid upsetting, confronting or contradicting the manipulator.

Simon identified the following manipulative techniques:

 

Lying: It is hard to tell if somebody is lying at the time they do it although often the truth may be apparent later when it is too late. One way to minimize the chances of being lied to is to understand that some personality types (particularly psychopaths) are experts at the art of lying and cheating, doing it frequently, and often in subtle ways.

Lying by omission: This is a very subtle form of lying by withholding a significant amount of the truth. This technique is also used in propaganda.

Denial: Manipulator refuses to admit that he or she has done something wrong.

Rationalization: An excuse made by the manipulator for inappropriate behavior. Rationalization is closely related to spin.

Minimization: This is a type of denial coupled with rationalization. The manipulator asserts that his or her behavior is not as harmful or irresponsible as someone else was suggesting, for example saying that a taunt or insult was only a joke.

Selective inattention or selective attention: Manipulator refuses to pay attention to anything that may distract from his or her agenda, saying things like "I don't want to hear it".

Diversion: Manipulator not giving a straight answer to a straight question and instead being diversionary, steering the conversation onto another topic.

Evasion: Similar to diversion but giving irrelevant, rambling, vague responses, weasel words.

Covert intimidation: Manipulator throwing the victim onto the defensive by using veiled (subtle, indirect or implied) threats.

Guilt tripping: A special kind of intimidation tactic. A manipulator suggests to the conscientious victim that he or she does not care enough, is too selfish or has it easy. This usually results in the victim feeling bad, keeping them in a self-doubting, anxious and submissive position.

Shaming: Manipulator uses sarcasm and put-downs to increase fear and self-doubt in the victim. Manipulators use this tactic to make others feel unworthy and therefore defer to them. Shaming tactics can be very subtle such as a fierce look or glance, unpleasant tone of voice, rhetorical comments, subtle sarcasm. Manipulators can make one feel ashamed for even daring to challenge them. It is an effective way to foster a sense of inadequacy in the victim.

Playing the victim role ("poor me"): Manipulator portrays him- or herself as a victim of circumstance or of someone else's behavior in order to gain pity, sympathy or evoke compassion and thereby get something from another. Caring and conscientious people cannot stand to see anyone suffering and the manipulator often finds it easy to play on sympathy to get cooperation.

Vilifying the victim: More than any other, this tactic is a powerful means of putting the victim on the defensive while simultaneously masking the aggressive intent of the manipulator.

Playing the servant role: Cloaking a self-serving agenda in guise of a service to a more noble cause, for example saying he is acting in a certain way for "obedience" and "service" to God or a similar authority figure.

Seduction: Manipulator uses charm, praise, flattery or overtly supporting others in order to get them to lower their defenses and give their trust and loyalty to him or her.

Projecting the blame (blaming others): Manipulator scapegoats in often subtle, hard to detect ways.

Feigning innocence: Manipulator tries to suggest that any harm done was unintentional or did not do something that they were accused of. Manipulator may put on a look of surprise or indignation. This tactic makes the victim question his or her own judgment and possibly his own sanity.

Feigning confusion: Manipulator tries to play dumb by pretending he or she does not know what you are talking about or is confused about an important issue brought to his attention.

Brandishing anger: Manipulator uses anger to brandish sufficient emotional intensity and rage to shock the victim into submission. The manipulator is not actually angry, he or she just puts on an act. He just wants what he wants and gets "angry" when denied.

According to Braiker, manipulators exploit the following vulnerabilities (buttons) that may exist in victims:

 

the "disease to please"

addiction to earning the approval and acceptance of others

Emotophobia (fear of negative emotion)

lack of assertiveness and ability to say no

blurry sense of identity (with soft personal boundaries)

low self-reliance

external locus of control

According to Simon,manipulators exploit the following vulnerabilities that may exist in victims:

 

naïveté - victim finds it too hard to accept the idea that some people are cunning, devious and ruthless or is "in denial" if he or she is being victimized

over-conscientiousness - victim is too willing to give manipulator the benefit of the doubt and see their side of things in which they blame the victim

low self-confidence - victim is self-doubting, lacking in confidence and assertiveness, likely to go on the defensive too easily.

over-intellectualization - victim tries too hard to understand and believes the manipulator has some understandable reason to be hurtful.

emotional dependency - victim has a submissive or dependent personality. The more emotionally dependent the victim is, the more vulnerable he or she is to being exploited and manipulated.

Manipulators generally take the time to scope out the characteristics and vulnerabilities of their victim.

 

According to Kantor, the following are vulnerable to psychopathic manipulators:

 

too trusting - people who are honest often assume that everyone else is honest. They commit themselves to people they hardly know without checking credentials, etc. They rarely question so-called experts.

too altruistic - the opposite of psychopathic; too honest, too fair, too empathetic

too impressionable - overly seduced by charmers. For example, they might vote for the seemingly charming politician who kisses babies.

too naïve - cannot believe there are dishonest people in the world or if there were they would not be allowed to operate.

too masochistic - lack of self-respect and unconsciously let psychopaths take advantage of them. They think they deserve it out of a sense of guilt.

too narcissistic - narcissists are prone to falling for unmerited flattery.

too greedy - the greedy and dishonest may fall prey to a psychopath who can easily entice them to act in an immoral way.

too immature - has impaired judgment and believes the exaggerated advertising claims.

too materialistic - easy prey for loan sharks or get-rich-quick schemes

too dependent - dependent people need to be loved and are therefore gullible and liable to say yes to something to which they should say no.

too lonely - lonely people may accept any offer of human contact. A psychopathic stranger may offer human companionship for a price.

too impulsive - make snap decisions about, for example, what to buy or whom to marry without consulting others.

too frugal - cannot say no to a bargain even if they know the reason why it is so cheap

the elderly - the elderly can become fatigued and less capable of multi-tasking. When hearing a sales pitch they are less likely to consider that it could be a con. They are prone to giving money to someone with a hard-luck story. See elder abuse.

Manipulators have possible motivations, including:

 

the need to advance their own purposes and personal gain at virtually any cost to others,

a strong need to attain feelings of power and superiority in relationships with others,

a want and need to feel in control (aka. control freakery),

and gaining a feeling of power over others in order to raise self-esteem.

 

Manipulators may have any of the following psychological conditions:

 

machiavellian personality

narcissistic personality disorder

paranoid personality disorder

borderline personality disorder

avoidant personality disorder

dependent personality disorder

histrionic personality disorder

Evil Personality

passive–aggressive behavior

type A angry personalities

antisocial personality disorder

behavioral addiction

Basic manipulative strategy of a psychopath. According to Hare and Babiak.

 1. Assessment phase Some psychopaths are opportunistic, aggressive predators who will take advantage of almost anyone they meet, while others are more patient, waiting for the perfect, innocent victim to cross their path. In each case, the psychopath is constantly sizing up the potential usefulness of an individual as a source of money, power, sex, or influence. Some psychopaths enjoy a challenge while others prey on people who are vulnerable. During the assessment phase, the psychopath is able to determine a potential victim’s weak points and will use those weak points to seduce.

 

 2. Manipulation phase. Once the psychopath has identified a victim, the manipulation phase begins. During the manipulation phase, a psychopath may create a persona or mask, specifically designed to ‘work’ for his or her target. A psychopath will lie to gain the trust of their victim. Psychopaths' lack of empathy and guilt allows them to lie with impunity; they do not see the value of telling the truth unless it will help get them what they want.

 

As interaction with the victim proceeds, the psychopath carefully assesses the victim's persona. The victim's persona gives the psychopath a picture of the traits and characteristics valued in the victim. The victim's persona may also reveal, to an astute observer, insecurities or weaknesses the victim wishes to minimize or hide from view. As an ardent student of human behavior, the psychopath will then gently test the inner strengths and needs that are part of the victim's private self and eventually build a personal relationship with the victim.

 

The persona of the psychopath - the “personality” the victim is bonding with - does not really exist. It is built on lies, carefully woven together to entrap the victim. It is a mask, one of many, custom-made by the psychopath to fit the victim's particular psychological needs and expectations. The victimization is predatory in nature; it often leads to severe financial, physical or emotional harm for the individual. Healthy, real relationships are built on mutual respect and trust; they are based on sharing honest thoughts and feelings. The victim's mistaken belief that the psychopathic bond has any of these characteristics is the reason it is so successful.

ELECTRONIC HARASSMENT

(unverified, very interesting information-found by Peacefultrends. I esp like the part about the hum, wondering what is to it)

Electronic Harassment is the use of technological devices to spy on or cause harm to targeted victims.
For example, exposure to a high magnetic field has been shown to induce hallucinations in humans while exposure to intense microwave radiation induces psychotic episodes and
causes brain damage.

A frequent form of Electronic Harassment involves
beaming a low frequency "hum" or "tone" into a victim's home or general area. Over time, the exposure causes the victim to lose sleep,
become agitated, and suffer the effects of prolonged stress. Such tactics are also being used in cases of hostage situations as well as
covert government operations.

Electronic Harassment
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_haras...

Michigan Legislature Acknowledges the Existence of "Harmful
Electro-Magnetic Devices"
http://www.legislature.mi.gov/documents/2003-... ...

GHOSTING
The term Ghosting refers to the practice of rearranging, or moving, of a victim's home furniture, lawn decorations, desk decorations at
work, etc.

The purpose of Ghosting is to make a victim question his or her sanity. Ghosting is also designed to make other's question the
sanity of the victim, especially if the victim attempts to complain of the abuse.

MIMICRY

Mimicry is a specialized form of harassment in which the stalkers publicly imitate every movement made by the victim.

MOBBING

Mobbing is a term that describes "Group Bullying". Of itself, Mobbing
is not equated with Gang Stalking. However, Mobbing may be a tactic
used by the perpetrators of Gang Stalking.

Mobbing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobbing

NOISE CAMPAIGN

A Noise Campaign is an orchestrated effort to produce stress in a victim through prolonged exposure to significant noise levels. A Noise
Campaign can range from multiple neighbors routinely playing loud music, individual stalkers with air-horns or fireworks, or organized
"repair work" that involves a high level of noise.
SENSITIZATION

Sensitization is a psychological term referring to the forced association between a stimuli and a corresponding reaction. Stalkers
use Sensitization to psychologically abuse a victim. For example, if a stalker constantly harasses a victim while wearing a blue baseball cap, then overtime the victim will begin to believe anyone wearing a blue
baseball cap is a stalker and is coming to harass.

Sensitization undoubtedly creates an extreme level of fear in a victim, in direct
fulfillment of the intentions of the stalkers.
Sensitization http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitization

All of the above tactics are in cointelpro/gangstalking, generally. The most important thing to understand is all of the tactics are meant to produce fear and stress in the Target, in hopes of getting a Target under the control of the harasser. These tactics have been around for years and there is a great number of examples of Targeted people, despite the harassment, they managed to continue living productive lives.

Intended effects

The intended effect of the FBI's COINTELPRO was to "expose, disrupt, misdirect, or otherwise neutralize" groups that the FBI believed were "subversive" by instructing FBI field operatives to:

1. create a negative public image for target groups (e.g. by surveiling activists, and then releasing negative personal information to the public)
2. break down internal organization (e.g. by having agents exacerbate racial tensions, or send anonymous letters to try to create conflicts)
3. create dissension between groups (e.g. by spreading rumors that other groups were stealing money)
4. restrict access to public resources (e.g. by pressuring non-profit organizations to cut off funding or material support)
5. restrict the ability to organize protests (e.g. agents sending letters promoting violence against police at protests)
6. restrict the ability of individuals to participate in group activities (e.g. by character assassinations, false arrests, surveillance)

Uncle Sam and their SIGs say "creating scapegoats is just what America needs"

If they need to quell dissent, scapegoat a person in a public way, nothing unifies a community more than a vulnerable person to vilify.

If they are afraid of Minorities, then scapegoat a white person to blame.

If they need to train a community or nation to be ready for defense, then find a scapegoat for target practice.

If they need to use a citizen for unconsented experimentation and education purposes, then scapegoat the victim first, so they have no credibility when they look for help.

etc, etc, etc

Military tactics and science improve with time. Human nature stays the same. It is so easy for sociopaths to stroke the egos, play into the fears and pay off people- whole communities -to manipulate people into committing atrocities against ANYONE. The victim doesn't need to be guilty, the victim just needs to be vulnerable.

Scape goats are victims of the 'shame campaign'

A shame campaign is a tactic in which particular individuals are singled out because of their behavior or suspected crimes, often by marking them publicly, such as Hester Prynne in Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter. In the Philippines, Alfredo Lim popularized such tactics during his term as mayor of Manila. On July 1, 1997, he began a controversial "spray paint shame campaign” in an effort to stop drug use. He and his team sprayed bright red paint on two hundred squatter houses whose residents had been charged, but not yet convicted, of selling prohibited substances. Officials of other municipalities followed suit. Former Senator Rene A. Saguisag condemned Lim’s policy.[18]

Despite this criticism, the shame campaigns continued. In January 2005, Metro Manila Development Authority Chair Bayani Fernando announced a shame campaign to target jaywalkers by splashing them with wet rags. Sen. Richard Gordon disagreed with the shame tactic, and Rep. Vincent Crisologo called this approach "martial law tactics". Rep. Rozzano Rufino Biazon argued jaywalkers were being treated like cattle
