right is a strong word. nothing Bezmenov said was inaccurate about how ideological subversion works or what they wanted to do but they were incompetent as fuck about it and it was more about getting us to waste resources looking for traitors than anything else because we were outspending them 100 to 1 or whatever it was.
hilariously, most/all of their actual big wins and putting points on the board in the cold war was due to capitalism. their best dude literally got caught because his wife wouldn't stop shopping with money they couldn't explain how they got.
they didn't understand us the same way we didn't understand them

but yeah, i remember that cut scene in call of duty being pretty cool too.
The Cambridge Five in the UK and the spies at Los Alamos are the examples of when the ideology debate actually worked but by the 80s that shit was so fucking over.
