"Usually it is the climbers, careerists and people, generally speaking,
who are not serious, who most readily join secret societies, and we
shall find them easy to handle and through them operate the mechanism of
our projected machine."
The remarks under this head are curtailed by the present writer, because
the Protocols make reference to a very important secret order, the
mention of whose name in this connection might lead to misunderstanding,
and which is therefore reserved for future and fuller attention. It
will, however, be of interest to the members of that order to see what
the Protocols have to say of it, and then check up the facts and see how
far they correspond with the words.
To continue: "The Gentiles join lodges out of curiosity or in the hope
that through them they may worm their way into social distinction * * *
We therefore give them this success so that we can take advantage of the
self-conceit to which it gives birth and because of which people
unconsciously accept our suggestions without examination * * * You
cannot imagine to what an extent the most intelligent Gentiles may be
brought to a state of unconscious naivete under conditions of
self-deceit, and how easy it is to discourage them by the least failure,
even the stopping of applause, or to bring them into a state of servile
subjection for the sake of regaining it. The Gentiles are as ready to
sacrifice their plans for the sake of popular success as our people are
to ignore success for the sake of carrying out our plans. This
psychology of theirs facilitates the task of directing them."
These are a few of the passages in which this estimate of human or
Gentile nature is made out in words. But even if it were not so baldly
stated, it could be easily inferred from various items in the program
which was depended upon to break up Gentile solidarity and strength.
The method is one of disintegration. Break up the people into parties
and sects. Sow abroad the most promising and utopian of ideas and you
will do two things: you will always find a group to cling to each idea
you throw out; and you will find this partisanship dividing and
estranging the various groups. The authors of the Protocols show in
detail how this is to be done. Not one idea, but a mass of ideas are to
be thrown out, and there is to be no unity among them. The purpose is
not to get the people thinking one thing, but to think so diversely
about so many different things that there will be no unity among them.
The result of this will be vast disunity, vast unrest--and that is the
result aimed for.
