Big Brother Dispenses Operativnyy Experience

While their class natures (class essences) are fundamentally different, our agent work and the tewu work of capitalist countries differ in other principal respects as well, such as agent tactics. The roles of our security agencies differ from those of the security agencies of capitalism. While the purpose of operational activity in capitalist countries is to protect the interests of capitalism and consolidate capitalist rule (and for that purpose to employ all available means to suppress progressive figures, workers, labouring people, revolutionary elements, and all progressive organisations), the purpose in our case is to suppress all counter-revolutionary elements, protect the interests of the people, and consolidate the People’s Democracy. Our agent work, in other words, has a different essence with respect to its operational aims and tactics.
