So in The Gang Spies like U.S., Mac and Dennis' elaborate masturbation scheme is a way to involve each other in their sex lives without technically doing anything sexual together, right? They could just take care of things in the shower like normal people.

i am once again telling people to read "Regulation of platform market access by the United States and China: Neo-mercantilism in digital services" by Milton L. Mueller & Karim Farhat (2022)

Hello usamerican tumblr liberal. Why is it scarier when a Chinese company has your data? What is the Chinese government going to do with your data if you don't live there? Tell me what the fuck are they gonna do? Why are you more scared of a foreign government that has no power over you than your own government that does and you know for a fact they will will do something about it. Facebook snitching to the cops on you if you get an abortion and then getting you thrown in jail for murder is a thing that has literally happened in the US. Why is that less scary than when Chinese companies collect your data?

who? spencer reid (s7) x analyst!reader summary: when a former navy SEAL threatens your base of operations, your safety is the only thing on spencer's mind. content warnings: jealous and pining spencer, gun talk, spencer kind of manhandles you, spencer getting cockblocked by jj word count: 1.8k a/n: don't hate me, i didn't have his confession speech planned.

It’s not that far a stretch for you to be the first person he thinks of — while JJ’s negotiating with her DoD contacts to get them a look at a classified operation, he’s gone upstairs to look for you. Working in counterintelligence meant you had access to all kinds of information, whether that be domestic or international. Spencer carefully carried the cup of coffee, file pinned under his arm, aiming to find you at your cubicle, except you’re standing at another one, perched on the table while you talked to another person.

Spencer’s not the kind to get jealous, or so he thought, except the guy you’re talking to isn’t like the others who occupy the floor — he’s got broad shoulders and an easy smile, and at least if he was blond, he wouldn’t have been competition. He just had to be a brunet, charming to top it off. Spencer doesn’t know if he’s ever made you smile unless you were teasing him.

The longer he stands there, the more awkward he feels, and he eventually gets the nerve to knock on your desk and make you look up — an improvement to a year ago where he would have just pretended to look lost and leave. His stomach turns when he watches you place your hand on the guy’s shoulder, squeezing as you walk away.

“Is that a bribe I see?” you asked, the corner of your lip curling as you spied the coffee in his hand.

“Nope, it’s completely unrelated to the favor I came to ask,” Spencer said, earning a rueful look as you take it and sit in your chair.

“What do you need?” you asked, sipping the coffee that was made perfectly to your liking — he'd gotten to know your preferences better over the last year, spending more time together since the Doyle case. You'd been an escape from the suffocating emptiness of the bullpen, and he'd been good company when you had been barred from Penelope's lair for 6 months.

“Anything you might have on Dorado Falls,” Spencer said, his voice rising an octave in hope that you might help as you go through your files.

“And Pen can’t do this because?” you asked, pulling up your file directory.

“She doesn’t have clearance,” Spencer said, lacing his fingers together and twisting it in his nervousness. As expected, you turn your head to look at him.

“You want eyes on a classified op you don’t have the clearance for?” you asked, raising a brow at him.

“Yes?” He's got this puppy-eyed look, like when he asks if you have lunch plans, or if you want to see a 4-hour long sci-fi film that's only available in Russian.

“Reid,” you said with a sigh, rubbing your forehead. “I can’t just—”

“He killed 8 people in one day,” Spencer insisted in a hushed voice. “He’s got a U.S. General as a hostage, I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t important.” He watched your folded lips, your contemplative look, and he can finally take a breath when you turn your chair and acquiesce.

“You people are gonna get me fired one of these days,” you muttered under your breath, Spencer leaning over your shoulder as you find the file you’re looking for. “Navy SEAL operation, 2003, this what you’re looking for?” you asked, his breath fanning over your cheek, warm and coffee-tinged. If you turned your head, you could probably kiss his cheek — not that you would. But the thought crosses your mind as he nodded.

“That’s the one,” he said, and moved when you had to reach for the drawer, copying the file onto a clean flashdrive before ejecting it.

“I like my job, Reid,” you said, turning to look at him, which you could do forever with his coiffed hair and blue sleeves rolled to his elbows, paired with a grey vest. “If I get fired, you’re paying my rent,” you continued, pressing the flashdrive into his hand and his lips break into a smile.

“You’re a lifesaver,” he replied, closing his hand over the drive and leaving you to your work, and you watched him walk until he got to the glass doors, holding back a laugh as you watched him break into an awkward run for the elevators.

The next time he goes to your floor, he doesn’t bother waiting for the lift, running up stairs as fast as he can to get to you before the unsub does — even though it’s wholly unprofessional. He needs to be with his team, ready to talk down the unsub at a moment’s notice, but his focus shattered the moment he found out you hadn’t evacuated yet. Instead, you were focused on activating a failsafe program, in case anyone other than the members of your division moved to access the network on your floor.

“What are you still doing here?” Spencer yelled at you, almost skidding to your cubicle.

“Almost done, give me a second,” you said, gritting your teeth, fingers flying over your keyboard as you authenticate yourself. “Jesus Christ, I need to make this program faster,” you muttered and Spencer swears that if the unsub doesn’t kill you, he might.

“Really? There’s a Navy SEAL breaking into the building, and you’re thinking of more projects to work on?” he demanded, his hands pressed to his revolver.

“There’s a Navy SEAL on his way and you think a cowboy pistol’s gonna save you?” you retorted sharply.

“What do you have against my gun?” he asked, his voice rising in octave again.

“Uh, how about the reload for one,” you said. “What, do you carry around spare bullets in your pocket? Plus the recoil rules out rapid fire. What are you gonna do if you get pinned down?”

“I’m gonna keep you from getting killed,” he said, reaching out to grip your bicep. “You’re right, I don’t have the firepower of an uzi, what I can do is get us out of this room,” he finished, tugging your arm.

"Hold on, it's almost done," you muttered.

"No, I'm dragging you out of here now-" He said, but you just shrugged, still tapping away at the keys with only your left hand free.

"No, you can't," you said idly as you continued to work. "You haven't the strength to get me to move without cooperation, and I'm not leaving until I finish this."

“I-“ he opened his mouth, then closed it. What was he going to say? That you were being stubborn for the sake of it? That your life was more important than this task? That you should get up, and run with him? That he’d save you? He couldn’t voice any of those. You both knew them all anyway, and you’d be able to rebuff them with ease. “Just hurry, please.”

He leaned closer to you, trying to ignore the soft scent of your hair.

"Oh, well, now that you've told me to hurry," you responded dryly, turning your face to look at him, inches away from his. The proximity surprised him, but he barely had time to think about it before you were hitting return and taking your hand off the keys.

“Done,” you announced, standing up. “Time to run. Unless, of course, you want to argue about that too?”

"Can we?" he asked, pulling you along the corridor. "I do have a list of complaints about your recklessness."

"You have a list of complaints about everything," you retorted as he opened the fire escape door for you. You stepped through, Spencer closing the door behind you both.

"Your general attitude is up there," He admitted, running down the stairs and pulling you after him. "Your inability to keep yourself safe, your tendency to throw yourself into danger for the sake of a project—"

"Jesus Christ, Reid, if we find out a rogue operative is going to break in, you don't think we'd have a protocol for it?" you argued, frustrated.

"Yes, I believe the protocol is to evacuate," he reminded you, reaching the landing. He kept you close, though he'd never admit that it was to reassure himself.

"God, for a genius, you really are daft," you muttered, rounding the corner to another flight of stairs. "You think we'd just leave the entire network open for him?"

"No," he allowed, following your hurried footsteps. "But I don't think your life should be worth the risk. No data is worth you dying."

"Yeah, how about dozens of classified operations and cover identities that need to be kept under wraps?" you snapped at him. "I was doing my job, you're the one who came looking for me when you should be with your team."

"The team knows my priority is with you," he admitted, then immediately regretted it because that was information that he hadn't been planning to tell you.

You stopped in your tracks, staring at him. "What does that mean?"

His eyes widened and he backtracked. "The team knows that if you're threatened, the likelihood is I'll disregard protocol," he said. Well, it was the truth, even if it wasn't really what he'd meant. "We should keep moving," he said.

"No, you can't keep doing this," you demanded, pulling at his arm. "Every time, every time, you say this cryptic coded thing that I don't know what to do with. Just say what you mean, already!"

"I-I don't..." Spencer's heart was hammering in his chest, his eyes wide. The truth was, he wanted to tell you. He wanted you to know where you stood with him... but the fear of rejection would stop him every time. He was in love with you. He hadn't had the courage to admit it yet. His earpiece interrupts him, and for once in his life, Reid is almost glad to have his earpiece interrupt his thoughts.

“Reid, we’re seeing movement on the 7th floor, where are you?” JJ asked, her voice rushed.

"I'm in the stairwell with the most stubborn woman in the world," he said, looking pointedly at you as you scowled at him.

“Get back up here,” JJ replied. “We need all hands on deck.”

"I'm coming," he said, and looked at you. "So much for getting you out," he murmured. "If you run now, can I trust you won't go back to your desk?"

“Believe it or not, I have no interest in facing a 6 ft Navy SEAL,” you replied dryly.

"So that's a yes," he says, smiling despite his attempt to remain serious.

I'm in love with you, he thought, but he wasn't brave enough to say.

I don't want to lose you. He was even less willing to voice that.

"Don't stop running till you're out," he told you instead, his voice as firm as he could make it.

"Don't get killed by a SEAL," you replied, your sense of humor never failing you as you add, "Although, it would be a cool way to go out."

"I'm sure you'll be very smug about it at my funeral," he said, but neither of you were really smiling anymore. "I'll be okay," he promised you. "Get out of here."

You take one last lingering look at him, then started running down to the exit, leaving him behind.

It took him a full 5 seconds to start moving after you finally left, and the feeling of emptiness in his chest only grew with each step up the stairs.

He was in love with you, and he was determined to tell you.

Just not yet.

Well, fact based deniers, here's a little information to chew on. Not that facts, truth, honesty, integrity, or anything like that matters to any of you.

A senate report, a CNN source ( if you can believe that ) and an article from the Hill.

Why the hell was V3 such a bad politician and general in Animorphs?

Several things!

He gets put in charge of a planet he doesn't want, while forced to run his rival's playbook. Visser One is responsible for the covert infiltration, The Sharing, recruiting voluntary hosts, etc. Visser Three is a blunt instrument forced into a role that requires restraint and finesse. (Visser)

The reason he's in charge? He's more of a figurehead than a leader. The yeerks want their one and only andalite-controller highly visible, and so they give him an entire campaign — but he doesn't have a record of leadership, and he didn't put in the hard work to get good. (Andalite Chronicles)

Oh, and he's being sabotaged. V1 sends spies to observe and mess with his plans (MM4) because she's livid that he's "lost Earth, despite the fact that [she] handed it over in perfect shape" (#15). No wonder V3 has trust issues.

On top of that, Earth isn't the yeerks' priority. They view it as a slow frontier that will handle itself, where the bulk of their forces are on Leeran and Anati. Think of the U.S. sending its military against Canada in the War of 1812, while largely ignoring its war with the indigenous nations. Or focusing all power on Iraq because the invasion of Afghanistan was going so badly. For the yeerks, Earth is Oregon in 1812 or Afghanistan in 2003; their attention isn't there for 80% of the war because they figure it's a slow conflict of attrition and will sort itself out even without resources.

Almost every yeerk we see is in the worst sort of middle management: V3 gets inspectors (#37) but not a budget (#28), must finish others' projects (#25) but gets his expertise on Earth ignored (Visser). He's a public school teacher who can be punished for an infinite number of (arbitrary) infractions, but can excel all he wants without getting the tools to succeed.

So V3 is still the worst boss imaginable. And he doesn't exactly rise to the challenge of being an amateur general holding the line on a backwater frontier with severely limited resources and a debilitating need for secrecy (i.e. Jake). But he also has a ton of forces working against him, isn't allowed to play to his strengths, and doesn't have either the personal or the material resources to win the day.

The United States aggressively spies on Israel, because as Ronald Reagan once said: “Trust but verify.” The extent of that spying is revealed in a pair of highly classified U.S. intelligence reports I have published below. They first circulated on social media this week and they provide extraordinary insight into how closely the U.S. is monitoring Israel amid a particularly fraught moment. With the recent deaths of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Iran’s retaliatory strike, and then with the death of Hamas architect of October 7, Yahya Sinwar, Israel has pledged that it will again attack Iran. It is evidently planning something big.  Two Top Secret documents outlining Israel’s preparations for a large-scale attack on Iran – which would be Israel’s largest, and here’s what’s most interesting: the mainstream media is silent. Colleagues at some of the biggest media outlets, from The New York Times to NBC, tell me that their outlets are aware of the documents. But it’s been days and no one in the sanctioned elite press is reporting on them (Axios only just reported their existence but declined to publish the documents themselves). As with the J.D. Vance Dossier, which the entire media knew about but refused to publish, it appears the media has once again lost its nerve – and its sense of what’s news.

Newsweek:

The largest undercover force the world has ever known is the one created by the Pentagon over the past decade. Some 60,000 people now belong to this secret army, many working under masked identities and in low profile, all part of a broad program called "signature reduction." The force, more than ten times the size of the clandestine elements of the CIA, carries out domestic and foreign assignments, both in military uniforms and under civilian cover, in real life and online, sometimes hiding in private businesses and consultancies, some of them household name companies. The unprecedented shift has placed an ever greater number of soldiers, civilians, and contractors working under false identities, partly as a natural result in the growth of secret special forces but also as an intentional response to the challenges of traveling and operating in an increasingly transparent world. The explosion of Pentagon cyber warfare, moreover, has led to thousands of spies who carry out their day-to-day work in various made-up personas, the very type of nefarious operations the United States decries when Russian and Chinese spies do the same. Newsweek's exclusive report on this secret world is the result of a two-year investigation involving the examination of over 600 resumes and 1,000 job postings, dozens of Freedom of Information Act requests, and scores of interviews with participants and defense decision-makers. What emerges is a window into not just a little-known sector of the American military, but also a completely unregulated practice. No one knows the program's total size, and the explosion of signature reduction has never been examined for its impact on military policies and culture. Congress has never held a hearing on the subject. And yet the military developing this gigantic clandestine force challenges U.S. laws, the Geneva Conventions, the code of military conduct and basic accountability.

There is no safe word. There is no escape.

❤︎ Synopsis. Spies are not the glamorous ghosts of fiction—no tailored suits, no perfect getaways, no clean kills. In reality, espionage is a slow, rotting game of deception, where a single mistake means death… or worse, falling into the hands of the enemy who loves hunting you more than killing you.

♡ Book. A Heart Devoured: A Dark Yandere Anthology

♡ Pairing. Yandere! Russian! Mafia Boss x Fem. Reader

♡ Novella. The Enemy in His Bed - Part 2

♡ Word Count. 4,171

❤︎ Introduction.

In espionage, survival is not merely about physical endurance but also strategic decision-making. A captured spy’s priority is not just to stay alive but to protect valuable intelligence and ensure the long-term success of their mission. The notion that a spy should immediately submit to captors by stating whatever they want to hear is an oversimplified and impractical approach, particularly in scenarios involving high-profile enemies such as the Russian Mafia boss. This research explores the real-world precedents for why silence is often the best initial response, why the Reader was captured despite her skills, and why deception or deflection would not work in this context.

❤︎ The Reality of Counter-Intelligence and Spy Training.

Espionage training includes extensive preparation for capture and interrogation. According to declassified CIA and MI6 manuals on intelligence gathering and counterintelligence, spies are expected to resist interrogation techniques for as long as possible to prevent immediate compromise of information (KUBARK Counterintelligence Interrogation, CIA, 1963). They are trained to withstand psychological manipulation, physical coercion, and prolonged detention.

One of the key elements in interrogation resistance is silence. Silence serves multiple functions:

It prevents the captor from immediately assessing the spy’s vulnerabilities.

It disrupts the psychological advantage of the interrogator, forcing them to exert more effort and time.

It buys time for allies to attempt extraction or for operational shifts to occur, making the captured intelligence obsolete.

In contrast, immediate compliance signals weakness, which can escalate the severity of torture. If a captive immediately concedes to their interrogator’s demands, it creates a precedent for further exploitation. The concept of ‘resistance training’ in elite military units, such as the U.S. Navy SEALs’ SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape) program, reinforces that initial silence is a fundamental survival tool (U.S. Army Field Manual, FM 34-52, Intelligence Interrogation).

Contrary to common belief, this training does not teach operatives to resist indefinitely or escape easily—it teaches them to endure psychological and physical torment while withholding critical information for as long as possible (Siddle, 2012).

The reality is that spies expect to be caught at some point because espionage is high-risk. Capture is part of the job, and how one handles it determines long-term consequences.

♡ The Nature of Espionage and Capture.

A spy's job is not to seek a noble death but to gather intelligence, survive, and, if caught, minimize the damage to their mission. Intelligence agencies worldwide, including the CIA, MI6, and FSB, prioritize counter-interrogation training, understanding that capture is an inevitable risk. Historical records and declassified intelligence documents show that spies are trained to withstand severe interrogation, knowing that the moment they are caught, they become a tool in the enemy’s hands.

Example: The case of CIA operative William Francis Buckley, who was captured by Hezbollah in 1984, demonstrates the brutal reality of espionage. Despite his extensive counter-interrogation training, Buckley was tortured for months. His captors extracted critical intelligence over time, proving that even highly skilled operatives are vulnerable under prolonged duress. His silence was not a matter of pride but protocol—to delay and protect intelligence assets.

♡ Historical Examples of Spy Captures.

Vasili Mitrokhin (KGB defector): He smuggled Soviet secrets to the West but stated that had he been caught, resistance or deception would have been futile. Soviet interrogation methods were designed to break individuals physically and mentally (Andrew & Mitrokhin, 1999).

Richard Sorge (WWII Soviet Spy): Captured by the Japanese, he was tortured for weeks but gave little information. Japanese authorities understood that extracting the truth from a trained spy meant prolonged and systematic suffering (Bennett, 2011).

CIA and MI6 Operations: Numerous declassified documents indicate that intelligence operatives under KGB, GRU, and mafia interrogations had no way of deceiving their captors effectively. The interrogators were trained to identify microexpressions, inconsistencies, and psychological breaks (Blake, 2014).

❤︎ Why the Reader Was Captured.

Even the most skilled spies can be caught due to various factors beyond their control, including:

♡ Betrayal or Internal Leaks.

Many real-world espionage cases demonstrate that spies are often caught due to information leaks rather than their own mistakes. For instance, Aldrich Ames, a former CIA officer, betrayed multiple operatives to the Soviet Union, leading to their arrests (Weiner, Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA, 2007).

Historically, spies such as Mata Hari (Dutch spy executed in WWI) and Richard Sorge (a Soviet spy caught by Japan) were captured despite their expertise due to meticulous counterintelligence efforts.

♡ Superior Surveillance and Resources.

Russian intelligence agencies, known for their advanced counterintelligence strategies, have successfully infiltrated and dismantled Western spy networks. The Federal Security Service (FSB) employs sophisticated tracking systems, AI-based behavioral analysis, and deep psychological profiling to anticipate and counter espionage threats.

♡ Underestimation of the Enemy.

The Reader, despite her expertise, is up against a highly intelligent and powerful adversary with extensive resources. The idea that a spy should “never get caught” is a myth; historically, even the most legendary spies, such as Richard Sorge (a Soviet spy during WWII), were eventually captured due to counterintelligence efforts (Roberts, The Spy Who Saved the World, 1999).

♡ Other Examples.

Other real-world examples of spy captures include:

CIA operative Kevin Patrick Mallory (2017) – A seasoned former CIA officer was arrested by Chinese authorities for espionage, highlighting that even experienced operatives can be caught.

Anna Chapman and the Illegals Program (2010) – A Russian spy network operating in the United States was apprehended by the FBI, proving that no spy is truly untouchable.

Oleg Penkovsky (1963) – A Soviet double agent who provided intelligence to the West but was eventually captured and executed by the KGB.

In Reader’s case, it’s highly plausible that she was captured not due to incompetence but because the Russian Mafia Boss, as an experienced leader, had the resources to track and corner her. Intelligence agencies, militaries, and criminal organizations spend millions on counterintelligence—expecting a spy to evade capture indefinitely is unrealistic.

❤︎ The Role of a Spy: Survival Over Suicide.

A spy’s ultimate goal is not to die a noble death but to extract, manipulate, and leverage intelligence. Historically, espionage operations emphasize survival, as intelligence is only valuable when utilized. The notion that a captured spy should immediately take their own life is impractical and counterproductive. Intelligence agencies, such as the CIA, MI6, and KGB, have extensive training protocols focused on survival under captivity.

♡ Case Studies & Real-World Evidence.

Cold War Espionage: Soviet and American spies, including figures like Oleg Penkovsky (a Russian colonel who spied for the U.S.), did not opt for suicide but instead attempted to deceive, delay, or outmaneuver their captors.

Israeli Mossad Training: Mossad operatives undergo SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape) training, emphasizing psychological resilience and delaying tactics over self-sacrifice.

♡ Analyzing the Strategic Silence of the Spy.

Real-world intelligence agencies, such as the CIA, MI6, and the KGB (now FSB), emphasize that in high-stakes interrogations, silence is often the most critical initial response. The CIA’s Human Resource Exploitation Manual and historical accounts from former Soviet spies confirm that experienced interrogators are adept at detecting deception through behavioral analysis, inconsistencies, and physiological cues.

Examples:

The KGB, infamous for its brutal Lubyanka prison interrogations, systematically broke spies through psychological and physical coercion. They relied on prolonged sensory deprivation, mock executions, and induced despair rather than overt brutality, ensuring that even the strongest-willed captives eventually lost their ability to lie effectively (Andrew & Mitrokhin, The Sword and the Shield).

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou stated that in trained interrogations, deception is useless because “they will catch you, and they will punish you worse for the lie.” This is particularly relevant when dealing with a highly intelligent and sadistic interrogator like the Russian Mafia Boss, who thrives on power and control. Any detected lie would reinforce his resolve to escalate torture, making survival even less likely.

♡ The Concept of a Highly Specialized Spy: Why She Was Not Replaceable.

The argument that the Reader could be easily substituted ignores the nature of infiltration. Unlike foot soldiers, spies establish relationships, manipulate high-value targets, and gather classified intelligence over extended periods.

Examples:

The Cambridge Five, a British spy ring operating for the Soviets, demonstrated that deep-cover spies are irreplaceable because they have gained unparalleled access to inner circles. Substituting an operative would mean re-establishing trust—a process that could take years or may never succeed again.

In this case, the Reader is the only operative who has successfully penetrated the inner sanctum of the Russian Mafia Boss. His trust, love, and obsession make her an even more valuable asset, ensuring that no one else could replicate her level of access.

❤︎ Why Staying Silent is a Tactical Move.

The key principle in real-life spy training is to delay interrogation. Many intelligence agencies, including the CIA, KGB, and Mossad, train agents to resist giving valuable information as long as possible.

The first 24-48 hours of captivity are crucial. If the enemy doesn't extract intel quickly, its value diminishes. Military strategies, safe houses, and targets change constantly, making real-time intel perishable.

Interrogators expect resistance; breaking someone immediately is rare unless they were psychologically unprepared. Stalling gives allies time to adjust, relocate, and mitigate damage.

Former KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov described how intelligence officers are trained to withstand extreme duress by understanding the “timing principle” of declassification. The most critical information loses relevance over time.

♡ The Strategic Value of Silence in High-Stakes Interrogation.

Captured spies are trained to resist giving immediate information. The goal is not to deny everything indefinitely but to buy time, allow misinformation to devalue over time, and force interrogators into a cycle of diminishing returns.

Example: The WWII Case of British SOE Agents

During World War II, British Special Operations Executive (SOE) agents were trained in structured resistance techniques when captured. This included maintaining complete silence for as long as possible because experienced interrogators could extract information from even the most minor details in a prisoner’s speech.

Evidence: The SOE training manuals emphasized that the most effective way to resist interrogation was to "say nothing of value" rather than fabricate or admit anything prematurely. Captured agents, such as those involved in the Prosper Network, found that their best chance of survival was limiting their responses to neutral statements or remaining silent.

❤︎ Why Lying or Deflecting Would Not Work.

The suggestion that the Reader should simply “say what he wants to hear” or lie to avoid harm overlooks several key realities:

♡ Experienced Interrogators Detect Lies Instantly.

Russian intelligence and mafia organizations employ interrogation specialists trained in behavioral analysis, microexpressions, and stress indicators (Ekman, 2009). The FSB, for instance, utilizes polygraph tests combined with psychological interrogation tactics that make lying ineffective (Gladwell, Talking to Strangers, 2019).

The CIA's Kubark Counterintelligence Interrogation Manual (1963) also emphasizes that experienced interrogators can break down deceptive narratives over time.

Furthermore:

The Russian mafia operates on a strict code of control and punishment. A high-ranking mafia boss with a sadistic disposition would not merely be satisfied with verbal compliance.

The moment a captive attempts to lie, their interrogator detects shifts in voice modulation, facial expressions, and body tension. Modern behavioral analysis techniques, similar to those used in intelligence agencies, have been adopted by criminal organizations (Ekman, 2009).

Interrogators systematically test the captive’s responses, ensuring that deception is met with harsher retribution.

♡ Information Verification.

Any information provided by the captive would be cross-checked with existing intelligence, making false statements easy to detect. Spies who attempt deception are often caught due to inconsistencies in their stories.

Mafia bosses don’t just rely on verbal confirmation; they verify information through secondary sources. False compliance (saying what he wants to hear) only works if the interrogator lacks verification methods—which is unlikely in this case.

♡ Escalation of Torture.

Providing misinformation does not ensure safety; instead, it increases the likelihood of prolonged torture, as interrogators recognize the deception and push further for the truth. Cases like that of Oleg Penkovsky, a double agent during the Cold War, illustrate that once deception is detected, captors intensify their methods (Duns, A Spy Like No Other, 2013).

♡ Torture-Induced Compliance.

A captive cannot control physiological responses indefinitely under duress. The CIA's declassified KUBARK Counterintelligence Interrogation Manual explains that prolonged pain weakens deception, making lies unsustainable.

Russian mafia interrogations often involve brutal methods, including sensory deprivation, waterboarding, and controlled mutilation. According to UN reports on torture methods used in Russian prisons, sustained physical and psychological trauma breaks most subjects, making deception ineffective in the long run (UNHRC, 2018).

♡ Example from Russian Intelligence Practices.

The case of Sergei Skripal, a former Russian double agent, illustrates that Russian intelligence (and by extension, Russian mafia structures) prioritizes ruthless and methodical approaches. They assume deception and apply escalating physical coercion until compliance is achieved.

Brutal Verification Methods: In real-world cases, Russian interrogators have used polygraphs, sensory deprivation, and enhanced psychological techniques. Simply “saying what they want to hear” is not enough; the interrogators will force a captive to prove their compliance through actions, written statements, and verifiable betrayals.

♡ Psychological Domination.

Compliance does not ensure mercy. Psychological profiling suggests that yielding too quickly to demands often results in further degradation. The Milgram Experiment (1961) on obedience to authority demonstrated that individuals in power continue exerting control when met with compliance rather than resistance (Milgram, Obedience to Authority, 1974).

Professional sadists, especially those trained in Russian psychological warfare tactics, are not easily deceived. The Russian mafia, often employing former FSB (Federal Security Service) and GRU (military intelligence) operatives, utilizes systematic torture to extract reliable confessions (Galeotti, 2018).

Techniques include:

Sensory Deprivation: Used to disorient captives and make them more suggestible.

Mock Executions: Designed to force compliance through extreme fear.

Incremental Mutilation: Increasing pain gradually to break resistance, a known KGB and mafia method (Levinson, 2015).

♡ The Myth of “Just Say What They Want”.

One of the key flaws in the argument that the Reader should simply comply is the assumption that submission would lead to mercy. Professional interrogators, especially those from the Russian mafia or intelligence sectors, do not operate on mere verbal compliance—they operate on verification. Saying “I am yours” or pretending to break down does not guarantee freedom or reduced suffering.

Real-World Interrogation Example: Former Soviet KGB officer Oleg Gordievsky defected to the UK, detailing the KGB’s brutal interrogation tactics. He revealed that Soviet and Russian intelligence agencies do not accept mere words. Compliance is seen as a trap, and interrogators use psychological and physical means to confirm whether a captive is truly broken.

Psychological manipulation is employed to gauge if the subject is truthful.

Torture is used not simply to force an answer, but to confirm deception through physiological responses (e.g., inconsistencies in breathing, pupil dilation, sweating).

In the case of mafia interrogation, individuals who submit too quickly are often seen as deceitful, leading to further, more severe methods to extract the truth.

♡ Brief Insights and Summary.

By this logic, the idea that Reader should have just said whatever he wanted to hear is flawed because:

It assumes that compliance would have stopped the torture (which isn’t true for criminal organizations).

It underestimates the Russian Mafia Boss’s ability to detect lies and verify information.

It ignores that time is a critical factor in espionage resistance.

❤︎ Why Simply "Saying What He Wants" Wouldn’t Work.

The Russian Mafia Boss is not a government interrogator following international laws—he is a brutal, highly intelligent criminal leader.

Unlike in government interrogations (where survival through compliance is sometimes feasible), criminal organizations are notorious for continuing torture regardless of whether the victim complies.

♡ Case Study: The Russian Mafia and Brutal Interrogation Techniques.

Russian organized crime is known for extreme interrogation methods. Testimonies from ex-FSB operatives and defectors confirm that compliance often does not guarantee survival.

Victims who immediately comply are seen as weak and disposable. Once they give intel, they are often eliminated to prevent them from being used by other enemies.

Criminal organizations prefer prolonged psychological and physical torture to extract everything, even after the victim seemingly complies.

♡ Real-World Example: Russian Mafia Interrogations.

In the 1990s, Chechen gangs and Russian mafia groups would make prisoners comply but still mutilate or kill them after extracting information.

Reports from defectors and criminal insiders (e.g., Alexander Litvinenko, former FSB officer) detail the Russian mafia’s highly methodical approach to breaking captives. Techniques include prolonged psychological torture, forced betrayals, and systematic dismantling of an individual’s sense of self.

❤︎ The Reality of Captured Spies: Silence Over False Compliance.

The idea that a spy can simply admit to anything an interrogator demands to avoid torture is deeply flawed. Psychological research and real-world case studies of captured spies indicate that captors—especially those with extensive experience, such as Russian intelligence agencies and organized crime syndicates—are trained to detect deception and will not accept simple compliance at face value.

Furthermore, the rationale of remaining silent is:

Delaying Tactics: Silence prolongs the interrogation, buying time for potential rescue or the devaluation of sensitive intelligence.

Psychological Control: Remaining silent can frustrate the interrogator, forcing them to shift strategies and making them question whether the subject truly possesses valuable information (Russell, 2019).

Case Study – John McCain (Vietnam War): Captured and tortured for years, McCain resisted providing valuable intelligence, proving that endurance can limit the enemy’s gains.

By choosing silence, Reader followed a rational and established espionage strategy.

♡ Russian Interrogation Techniques and Psychological Warfare.

One of the most feared interrogation tactics is the Russian "Break the Will" method, which relies on prolonged psychological torture, isolation, and a deep understanding of human psychology. Unlike the common misconception that compliance immediately halts torture, professional interrogators do not stop simply because a prisoner says what they want to hear. Instead, they analyze microexpressions, inconsistencies, and physiological responses.

Example: The Case of Vasili Mitrokhin

Vasili Mitrokhin, a former KGB archivist who defected to the UK, revealed in his Mitrokhin Archive that Soviet and Russian intelligence agencies had developed meticulous methods of interrogation. These included long-term psychological games designed to break a subject's mind rather than rely on direct brutality alone. If an individual attempted to deceive or deflect, interrogators would escalate their methods, ensuring that the truth surfaced eventually.

Evidence: Studies by former CIA operative and psychologist Dr. Laurence Miller affirm that professional interrogators apply techniques like the Reid Technique, which is designed to detect lies based on physiological stress responses.

♡ The Ineffectiveness of False Compliance in Criminal Syndicates.

While it is true that in some hostage situations, compliance can buy time, this is not the case in high-level intelligence extraction, especially within organizations such as the Russian mafia. Unlike state intelligence agencies, criminal syndicates operate on extreme distrust and are notorious for their relentless suspicion. Saying "I am yours" or fabricating stories does not satisfy them—it raises more questions.

Example: The Kidnapping of Alexander Litvinenko

Alexander Litvinenko, a former FSB officer who defected and later spoke out against the Russian government, was poisoned with polonium-210 in London. His case demonstrated that Russian intelligence and criminal networks do not accept superficial compliance. Litvinenko had long been under surveillance, and any attempt at false compliance would have been easily exposed.

Evidence: Testimonies from defectors and mafia insiders confirm that Russian criminal organizations use trust-testing methods—forcing captives to give detailed and verifiable information before trusting their word. Simply saying what the interrogator wants to hear does not work because they will cross-check facts, demand proof, and escalate punishments when inconsistencies arise.

❤︎ Why the Reader's Silence Was the Only Logical Choice.

Applying these real-world principles to the scenario, it is clear that:

False compliance does not ensure survival – The Russian mafia boss is too experienced to accept simple words; he will demand proof and escalate interrogation methods to test deception.

Interrogators do not stop at surface-level compliance – Even if the reader admitted to being "his," the interrogator would continue questioning motives, past actions, and hidden intentions.

Maintaining silence is a known espionage tactic – Real-world spies have been trained to resist interrogation by minimizing verbal interaction, as words are weapons in an interrogator’s hands.

❤︎ The Yandere Russian Mafia Boss: A Logical, Sadistic Interrogator.

Regardless of the Reader’s actions, the Russian Mafia Boss—being both highly intelligent and sadistic—would continue torture and control tactics. The assumption that immediate submission would stop further harm is flawed for several reasons:

♡ Sadism as a Motivator.

Unlike professional interrogators who seek intelligence, a sadist derives pleasure from prolonged suffering. Compliance does not guarantee safety but may instead encourage further psychological manipulation.

Studies on sadistic personality disorder (Kernberg, Aggression in Personality Disorders) indicate that true sadists do not seek mere compliance; they derive pleasure from asserting dominance through the suffering of their victim. The act of breaking resistance itself is the reward, meaning that submission only delays further torment.

♡ Power and Control.

Russian mafia interrogations, particularly by high-ranking figures, revolve around asserting dominance. Submission is not an endpoint but a means to deepen psychological dependence (Suskind, 2004).

In historical cases of mafia interrogations, such as those conducted by the Russian Vor v Zakone (Thieves in Law), mere words were insufficient to halt torture. Survivors of Chechen and Russian mafia captivity, like those documented in Putin’s People (Belton, 2020), recounted that compliance meant nothing when dealing with interrogators who wanted genuine emotional destruction, not just verbal submission.

Given that the Mafia Boss is a yandere, his obsession distorts traditional motivations. While he may claim to want obedience, he is more likely to desire proof of complete ownership—something that requires breaking the Reader’s will in a manner mere words cannot satisfy.

♡ Historical Precedent – Stalin’s NKVD Interrogations.

The NKVD (precursor to the KGB) was infamous for torturing individuals regardless of their confessions, demonstrating that submission does not equate to mercy (Conquest, 1991).

Thus, whether the reader complied immediately or not, the Russian mafia boss—driven by sadism and control—would continue his actions.

♡ Why Compliance Does Not Grant Mercy.

While some may argue that admitting to the interrogator’s demands (“I belong to you,” etc.) would grant relief, real-world evidence shows that sadists escalate regardless of compliance.

Andrei Chikatilo, a known Russian sadist and serial killer, demonstrated that inflicting suffering was the objective, not just extracting obedience (Kuklinski, 2006).

Mafia leaders, especially those trained in torture, derive satisfaction from power over their victims. Compliance does not ensure survival but often extends suffering as the captor enjoys full control.

♡ Examples.

The Case of Felix Sater – Sater, a Russian-American mobster and former intelligence asset, described the unforgiving nature of Russian mafia interrogation techniques, where captives were methodically broken down over time.

The Chechen Mafia – Reports from investigative journalists and defectors detail how Russian and Chechen mafia groups specialize in psychological domination, where suffering is a tool, not just an interrogation method.

Given these realities, silence was the best protocol for the Reader. A sadistic interrogator would not accept immediate submission as genuine and would still enact brutal methods to test its authenticity. Compliance does not equate to safety in this context—it often results in prolonged torment.

♡ The Mafia Boss’s Logic: Why He Keeps Reader Alive.

While his personal obsession plays a role, the mafia boss’s decision to keep Reader alive is also deeply logical and strategic. Killing her would mean losing a highly valuable asset with extensive knowledge of enemy operations. In high-stakes criminal organizations, intelligence is paramount.

Real-World Criminal Psychology

The Use of Captives for Strategic Gain: Organizations like the Russian mafia, Yakuza, and Cartels often keep captives alive to extract long-term intelligence or force their cooperation. This is a proven method of psychological warfare.

Stockholm Syndrome & Psychological Conditioning: By breaking down Reader’s psychological defenses over time, the mafia boss increases his control, making her a more pliable and valuable asset.

Torture as a Power Mechanism: A sadist with a methodical mindset does not kill impulsively. Rather, he relishes in control and destruction over time. Eliminating the Reader prematurely would be counterproductive to his own gratification.

♡ The Logical Imperative of Reader’s Survival.

Reader’s decision to endure rather than self-terminate aligns with real-world espionage doctrine. The idea of a quick death as a noble exit is impractical and strategically unsound. Meanwhile, the mafia boss’s decision to keep her alive stems not only from personal obsession but also from logical necessity. In high-stakes intelligence and criminal power structures, survival, manipulation, and psychological endurance are far more crucial than martyrdom.

❤︎ Conclusion.

In summary, the idea that a spy could simply “play along” and avoid suffering is a fallacy not supported by real-world intelligence practices. Espionage training emphasizes endurance, strategic silence, and the understanding that capture often leads to long-term suffering, not immediate death.

In dealing with a Russian mafia boss who is a logical, hardcore sadist, deception is doomed to fail, compliance does not grant mercy, and resistance is a calculated necessity. The real-world methodologies of intelligence agencies, criminal organizations, and psychological warfare tactics all reinforce this reality.

Thus, the assertion that the reader staying silent was the only logical choice is not only narratively justified but grounded in actual espionage, psychological, and historical evidence.

Everybody loves a good redemption arc, we seem to love them a little too much. Yet it seems that we always go a step too far trying to justify the actions of known criminals and murderers. Case and point: Daniella Romanoff, aka the Black Widow.

Miss Romanoff is the sister of Natasha Romanoff and Yelena Belova, two very dangerous women who have, as expected, been pardoned in the public eye. However she is also the granddaughter of mutant terrorist Erik Lehnsherr, aka Magneto. It seems her connections could not get worse, but the rabbit hole seems to just get deeper. She was formerly a member of the infamous Red Room, a collection of Russian assassins and spies trained from childhood to be ruthless killers. Along with her and her sisters, we have evidence that many more of these women still live in the United States completely hidden. It is bad enough that the U.S. government is simply allowing these women to walk around free as anything, but especially in Daniella Romanoff's case. She is also classed as an omega level mutant and a witch with extraordinary magical abilities. An anonymous source told the Daily Bugle:

"[Daniella Romanoff] is like a hurricane. She causes destruction and damage wherever she goes and is a threat to national safety" - Anonymous

Miss Romanoff is responsible for a number of famous terror attacks and murders, and her extreme powers cause doubt among the public about whether she is safe to be loose in the streets. She regularly commits mass murders under the name 'The Angel of Death', as well as previous alliances with her grandfather's Brotherhood of Mutants, a militant activist group who want to eradicate all humans .She has also been associated with a very powerful witch by the name of Nyx Dreadwood. New readers may not know who she is but she has been responsible for some of the worst natural disasters in America's history, including the 1900 Galveston hurricane, the Great Flood of 1862, and many more. Two powerful and deadly women working together? Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

One thing is for certain, the Daily Bugle will not let her critics be silenced. Here at the Daily Bugle we strive to deliver the truth the they don't want you to know, which is why we have expanded our services beyond print media to the internet.

– J Jonah Jameson

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Editor's note: Trust Mr Jameson to start a witch hunt, if you'll pardon the pun, over some random woman. Her being the sister of Natasha Romanoff does not make her ex-red room, nor does her being the granddaughter of Magneto make her a mutant rights extremist. The 'Angel of Death' connection is not something we have any evidence for besides a few potentially photoshopped images, and the connection with Nyx Dreadwood is only the word of our intern Alex, who went to interview the notorious witch and came back with no tongue. The fact of the matter is Mr Jameson loves nothing more than placing all the blame of the world on a mutant woman, and I'm afraid I may have to double lock the doors of the office tonight. Apologies Miss Romanoff, but outrage and fear sells, and Mr Jameson loves nothing more than to sell stories, no matter how tall. – J.E. - Lead Editor
