Fighting the satellite: Emotion manipulation
Patterns and tactics for turning the tables
Fighting the satellite can be extremely challenging in that the operator can stimulate emotional responses in the person they are targeting. This capability can be used to subtly manipulate your actions and your mindset, but it can also be used to incapacitate you if you are unprepared for it.
The purpose of this guide is to give you an understanding of how ‘emotion tampering’ is commonly used and some tips on how to assess the situation so you can glean intelligence and turn the tables.
What the satellite can do
The satellite can be used to trigger virtually any emotional state in a person. This includes making you cripplingly anxious, crushingly despondent, elated, totally angry, disgusted, ashamed, egotistical or proud. When they trigger these states, they can make them as strong or as subtle as they want, and they can last a long time.
