It's simple. For example (true story): Zhou lady friend-of-a-friend who imbibed Persecution Mania with mother's milk spots your high school twentieth century History coursework, with pictures of the rise of Fascism, and, through a combination of dim-wittedness and paranoia, reports your "trove of Nartsy literature" to Zhou central. You end up on a list kept by an organisation whose very lucrative business model consists of conning gullible co-ethnics into stumping up hefty donations, some of which goes towards employing similarly-unhinged ex-"Intelligence" types who use Zersetzung tactics against listees. The financial incentive to stoke paranoia is overwhelming. That's the setup. All else is chaff. The capacity of lavishly-funded nutjobs to disrupt and subvert should never be underestimated.
