Professor Kamenetsky's book affects the reader beyond its declared intention of demonstrating how the Nazis used censorship and "völkisch ideology" to teach children to "internalize National Socialist ideology and defend it enthusiastically" (xii). Her study overwhelms the reader with the picture of what must surely have been a censor's utopia, for she reveals the two-fold dream of censors in operation: aggression against everything that does not fit the censor's view and imposition of a predetermined value system by the censor whose aggression has been successful. The personal and developmental needs of the child and young adult were, of course, totally disregarded under ideological Gleichschaltung. Kamenetsky covers all aspects of her subject, from origin to publishing trends, but all her discussions are variables of those key terms—censorship and mythmaking.
Harassment techniques include:
1. Surveillance (being followed, electronic surveillance, computer and phone hacking, monitoring all
online activities, and bugging of home)
2.Profiles are built to identify any and all weaknesses and insecurities to be used later. Information often
obtained through sexual partners or trusted people in their lives.
3.Conditioning where victims are sensitised to certain stimuli such as everywhere you go someone will
cough as they walk past you. The goal is to make you self police and then think anyone who coughs is
involved in the harassment. People report of conditioning to include hand gestures, an overt use of
colour in peoples clothing (like everyone you see wearing red) or cars a certain colour or with headlights
on (also known as brighting).
4. Anchoring where someone will provide false rationales for the harassment. Often many possible
rationales are planted to keep the victim confused and the focus of the harassment cycles from one
possible reason to another round and around so as to keep the victim guessing in a self perpetuating
guessing game where every scenario you are to blame and causes self doubt, fear, intimidation, and
ultimately a cycle of destructive thoughts
5. Mobbing (or true gangstalking) where everywhere you go you will see an overt display of people
following you and often use words you have been conditioned to or your name to draw your attention
6. Street theatre where a group will "perform" an overt activity like a fake confrontation or scenarios
designed to test your reactions. Often takes the form of a couple who position themselves near you and
then have a conversation using many of your conditioned words or pertaining to your particular
situation and sensitivities.
7.The use of directional speakers which have the ability to direct sound to a single individual in a
crowded room. This particular item is ultimately the most used and is often referred to as V2K or Voice
to Skull and is used extensively in the psychological breakdown of the victim. The use initially is to cause
the victim to doubt their sanity and drive them into the mental health system, and later to just torment
and never give the victim a moment of privacy or peace. If they do enter the mental health system, then
harassment escalates dramatically as the victim has now been "discredited" and can be labeled as
someone with a mental problem if they do speak out about the harassment.
8.The use of electronics to effect your eyesight and balance which was originally developed for the
military and police crowd control called "dazzling" and even the ability to make you vomit.
9. Sound campaigns which is a community harassment technique where abnormal levels of sound are
directed at the victim and their home. This includes cars deliberately breaking or accelerating when they
pass, people talking excessively loudly at all hours of the night, amplification of sound using directional
speakers so that external sounds that previously couldnt be heard now can, garbage trucks and other
heavy vehicles, and countless other deliberate tactics
10.Sleep deprivation - this is perhaps one of the most insidious tactics used where victims are woken
multiple times a night and can be kept awake for days at a time. The effects are dramatic and
completely debilitating effecting concentration, mood, irritability, appearance, and significantly impacts
all areas of their life - job performance, relationships, and significantly aids in discrediting the victim asthey appear unorganised, disheveled, and sleeping patterns alter so they may sleep during the day
(where noise campaigns are more effective) and be awake at night (where they can be painted as the
one making noise and being a disruptive member of the community).
11. Baiting or entrapment where victims are harassed to the point that they lash out and commit a
crime such as assault, break and enter or vandalism, as they try and locate the source of the
harassment. Harassers will actively try to provoke verbal and physical confrontations especially after a
period of sleep deprivation. Or they are prompt
