It just doesn't happen all that often, and perhaps neither does in need to. 99.9% of the time can mean "99.9% of all collapses of nations," or 99.9% of all people, or 99.9% of all years. But somewhere someone(s) shed their blood to get us some rights, and they did organize themselves despite all the difficulty with it and the internal corruption. Sometimes someone like Jefferson has the unlikely luck that people are so desperate that they give a reasonable plan a chance, instead of the more usual "let's see who we can take our anger out on". You'll note that every nation is a mass organization, and so is every company, every bank, every soccer team, every religion even. All organizations. The problem with 'activists' is that there is an intense ignorance that pervades that sector, which you could call anarchy on the one hand, or communism on the other hand - both of which is almost the same. Those who are neither in those camps, are more likely the simple tax collector or bus driver who you could trust and who could make things happen - but for the time being they are comfortable. The question is when will the point come that these people, working people who are disciplined, when these will get dislodged and outraged. That's the moment to watch, and that's the moment to get organized because then they're free and suddenly disillusioned. The bankers will prepare for that time with their own fake wars and organizations, we just have to try to beat them then. Such a period does not come so often, maybe neither of us saw it with our own eyes (or maybe you did ..., MITmichael). But there is a chance then. Then you have to have your plans ready because if you don't then they will go with something else (like Hitler or Stalin etc). <br /><br />The reason I guess it's so hard to find any sane help with the kind of organizing for political / economic improvement is that those who didn't fit in the current system are a good chance that they are messups for whatever reason, incompetent for whatever reason, and that's why they are angry because they aren't in a good job etc. The other sector is your cut-throats who just see a game to get power to get money. Almost everyone decent is locked in and scared to rock the boat. The question is how long will it stay that way.<br /><br />But funny enough this is the problem not just in theory perhaps, but also maybe with us. Chances are we are somewhat comfortable and though we may lament this or say this should be done and that, are we really going all out for it ? Maybe not. I haven't stood on a street corner with my plan yet anyway. Maybe we need this spike in the butt ourselves as well.<br /><br />It is true that what's needed are people doing small jobs, that's all there is to society, and even to political and economic improvements. That too is all just small tasks being done by good people. We'll see how it goes, a plan that's on paper doesn't have to die quickly. It can be around for centuries, it may positively affect periods of historical problems for certain nations, when the ordinary people suddenly realize they have to do something.joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-78259704621226789392013-05-24T18:53:30.030-07:002013-05-24T18:53:30.030-07:00Forget about gaining power or making changes with ...Forget about gaining power or making changes with other people.<br /><br />The best advice I have for you all is to work on yourself...<br /><br />Try to have a balanced, healthy and happy life and seek to understand society according to the facts and evidence.<br /><br />Then seek some kind of individual contribution somewhere, like on a school board or city council or something....<br /><br />And in that position be the most conscientious and reasonable person you can.<br /><br />There will be no dramatic change.<br /><br />But what's needed is simply good people doing small jobs everywhere.MITmichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712376188659356195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-47032620182342924592013-05-24T18:48:56.101-07:002013-05-24T18:48:56.101-07:00Jefferson's pursuit of happiness was to be lef...Jefferson's pursuit of happiness was to be left alone so he could...<br /><br />1.design innovative buildings and structures<br />2.innovate farming and do experimentations<br />3.write essays on political theory<br />4.build a University to educate mankind<br /><br />As opposed to most citizens of the country he founded, who wish to....<br /><br />1.win the lottery or inherit their family's wealth so they can get drunk, smoke weed, watch porn, go on the internet and find someone to fuck, then smoke more weed, take a shower....go eat some mashed potatoes, corn, fried chicken and macaroni and cheese, then watch a ball game while drinking twelve or more beers....MITmichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712376188659356195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-3859300799371548942013-05-24T18:42:29.422-07:002013-05-24T18:42:29.422-07:00My friend it's impossible to have any organize...My friend it's impossible to have any organized movement of activists who are thoughtful and effective.<br /><br />It's in the nature of humans and activists and revolutionaries that they will bring out the worst in people.<br /><br />That's why Marxism and National Socialism wound up doing so much harm when in theory they both were for the building of a better world.<br /><br />When I did covert action and I'd brew up a plan to organize people for one or another noble cause I would analyze who I really had available to work with and then I'd see that all I had was a bunch of idiots and cut-throats.<br /><br />Human beings are mostly basically bad, and they're just not up to organizing for much that's positive. <br /><br />This is where I disagree with Noam Chomsky.

Why not do even more then 2 thin...Why not do both ? Why not do even more then 2 things. If the Government no longer represents the people, then you are an area that has no Government besides a pretended group with de-facto the greatest organized strength. Perhaps there are 2 strategies to deal with it: a) try to reclaim the Government and b) to set up a new Government. Why not do both, at the same time, and have the one strategy strengthen the other ? So long as your new Government complete with a voting system and representation isn't capable of taking over public responsibilities, you play nice and behave as an advisory citizens council. You don't claim to be Government, because once you do that gives the tyrants the excuse to lock you up. But what you can try to do is organize help for people, and ask for voluntary contributions (a sort of a taxation, but voluntarily.) This gives the new system the chance to flex its muscles a bit and to learn the Governing trade. At the same time you can organize political parties or candidates who love this sort of thing, and work your way into the existing system, while also pressuring those who are already there. Why ignore militias, they don't have to be pitted against the U$ Army, they can be employed for the security of whistleblowers, and the like; preventing Government assassinations. That's not all you should do I think, you also need a new economy: organize democratic businesses, and put money together into democratically organized funds that assist these companies (on collateral, you still need unsustainable businesses to fail and not take everything down.) This in turn becomes the ideology that your new Government and sponsored delegates in the existing Government proclaim etc.joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-69777424334327238722013-05-23T05:43:46.540-07:002013-05-23T05:43:46.540-07:00MITmicheal, but perhaps you can organize with your...MITmicheal, but perhaps you can organize with your own brother. I'm Dutch and in the Netherlands and you're American and over there we can not do a lot practically together. However thoughts about how to organize can be shared widely, debated so that all get 'into that kind of thing' already. Thought precedes action (or should). The debate itself is something that can make tyrants crumble, as they realize that while they press down their knife of evil, that will only strengthen those who want to 'do what it takes' to get heard and grow in strength until the tyrants - and hopefully their financiers - are in jail. The majority usually does nothing but chase it's own wealth, the question is what are we doing different. <br /><br />I have to admit though that I haven't found anyone yet to do anything with lol; yes the labor union, not exactly a club that understands the need for more fundamental re-organization yet. Perhaps later they will, my goodness what are many people economically and politically naive. In our nation it is a powerful entity at least, and though they really don't do a lot more then ask "for a bigger lollypop from the bankers", at least that demand is made on behalf of those who get the short end of the stick. By the way, labor unions in our countries matter because they are organized, and have a vast membership much outranking the political parties. I think total labor union membership is around 2 million (18 million total population, about 1 in 10 is organized in a labor union). The biggest political parties are around 70 000 members, their total membership - all parties combined - is a little over 300 000. Here you see the true power relations in our nation. Our parliament dances so long as it is at the pleasure of our labor unions, you could say. Labor unions outnumber political parties by a factor of 6. Probably half of those political parties have fundamental ideological loyalty to the labor unions. Within the labor unions itself exists its own democracy, which isn't as good as I would like it but it certainly is there. For example my own union (Bondgenoten) is lead by a council of ... 60. <br /><br />Now let's see what kind of rights we have here, or just how our infrastructure is doing which I heard is 'rotting' in the U$A. We have a lot of rights for sure, even though the bankers and their henchmen - and dumb people - try everything they can to undermine those rights and it is a *daily* struggle to keep up with the Governments bad ideas and bad implementations of good ideas, and so on. That is not just saying something because it sounds fun, it's not fun to do as my labor union collegues are doing to go to extensive schooling about the new crazy and big laws our problematic Government is trying to jam down our throats. We are currently in a struggle against a method of the Governments (national and local) against the unemployed being put to work for private businesses while the state remains paying their unemployement money. Don't even think that's a scam to help the unemployed, it's a scam to fatten up the corporate bosses and their banks on the banks of helpless labor people.<br /><br />Organization = power, disorganization = 'hanging seperately' = anarchy = defeat at the hands of those who are organized. Bankers certainly are organized... It has to start somewhere, to organize, so let's do it, do it right now. ;) yes !joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-63523309836283979632013-05-22T09:52:07.266-07:002013-05-22T09:52:07.266-07:00Absolutely correct, power comes from organization,...Absolutely correct, power comes from organization, not "the barrel of a gun". Individuals are powerless. We have a government which includes an army and a police force that are much more powerful than any individual. The problem is that our government has been hijacked and no longer represents us. We the people must organize ourselves to retake the government. This means political activity, not military activity. I would say organizing ourselves into militias to resist the government militarily is not a good strategy and Adam Kokesh's armed pot-smoking march on Washington is not good tactics. Instead, I would greatly intensify our efforts to get in contact with our elected representatives in Congress and the state legislators, regardless of party, as well as others influential people in our community - business or union leaders, clubs, schools, churches, associations of all kinds, to educate and organize all these people in turn. Most of them are not corrupt but ignorant. They believe what they see on television and they go along to get along. They can be awakened and activated, and it is up to us to do it. That is where the real battle lies. The greatest courage is to bear witness to the truth.

Women are probably going to be the key to revolution, not men, though one of the men will probably end up in the history books as the hero (lol). When ordinary women want Revolution, that may be the time that it is going to happen. When in the evening the women only has half of what the children eat and looks angry, the man may think at some point "I have had it with this evil regime," and off he goes to wage revolution (I guess?). Maybe you know more about this (lol). Combat is probably only a minor part of Revolution, the major parts are talking and thinking, organizing, administrating these organizations, being creative, constructive, planning, making the coffee, and such things. That is what is going to make or break it, probably. That's what is going to give that group its edge but also the honor and good name that brings in more people, which in turn leads to victory (more people, larger organizations, eventually more powerful then the banker cliques). Armed combat always seems to get the focus because it is spectacular and makes for a good movie, but the question of interest is not so much where the bullets fly or how precise, but what the shooters are thinking, what do they think they fight for and what will it actually be in the end. Buying a gun and shooting it is also easy, an individual can do it, hence ppl may cling to that as a solution for everything.joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-2986912697747926172013-05-21T04:28:15.928-07:002013-05-21T04:28:15.928-07:00Wheren't the Vietnamese famous for their tunne...Wheren't the Vietnamese famous for their tunnels (I saw my share of American TV series about that war). Try digging a tunnel all by yourself and see how far you get ;). Armed citizenry is what I am referring to, but these have to get organized locally. Why is nobody urging the American people to do this, to form strength ? Example: there you are, MITmichael, in your home, with your share of ammo, you got your AK47, you got your smoke grenades and what have you. Then you see 'them' (the American Gestapo) knock on the door of your neighbor accross the street 2 to the left. Maybe you know him, maybe you don't (this varies accross the country, doesn't it). You see curtains move in the house accross of you, you see a door swing open in the home to the left. You know these people all have their share of ammo, too. You know that you could take out this homeland security team, or at least kill a good few of them.<br /><br />1. If you don't have an organization already present in your street, the chances you will spring into action are next to zero - unless the State is already sufficiently wobbly and you're suicidal enough to try anything. <br /><br />2. If you manage to fight off the State hit-team, you know that soon the place will be crawling with tanks, helicopters and the like, and then you need greater help from citizens wider afield. That also requires organization but now on at least a neighborhood scale. If you have that organization ready on neighborhood scale, if you have a tighter militia for your street and the next and are in a coalition with all the militias in the neighborhood and you have your signals and command in order, then the decision can be made to defend your neighborhood as one force. You can be ordered by your Captain or whatever to go defend a tactical location with some others. (Citizens armies presumably quite quickly get to large sizes because "everyone joins in" so a city of 200 000 can easily have 60 000 men who are capable in principle of combat, and at some 20 000 you're already a Division, a 2 Star General). Once your 'neighborhood is on fire,' the combat can start to include other neighborhoods, and you can even win this militarily, especially when other cities start doing the same at the same time, so that the Tyrants can not focus all their forces on one spot (which is how they always win).<br /><br />You think that's the end of the tyrants ? No, it's the beginning, because after victory you need to establish a civil order that works, and that too requires organization.<br /><br />This is the golden age, where we can talk about these things and you can prepare. If Americans waste this golden age with doing nothing but buying ammo, which I think they should also be doing, you may end up cowering behind your curtain realizing you got no chance.joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-65884347213044638272013-05-20T19:05:19.177-07:002013-05-20T19:05:19.177-07:00Well I agree.

That's where things are decided.<br /><br />However the central problem with Americans today is that they're decadant, and therefore look to authority to solve all their anxieties and fears.<br /><br />What's needed is some voice, anyone, in the media to simply point out to the public that what the media dwells on which causes the public to be hysterial should be put into perspective.<br /><br />However no one in the media will do this because they make money by attracting people to them through all manner of alarmism. Furthermore the public really likes being frightened this way because it provides drama to their otherwise boring lives.<br /><br />There needs to be some voice somewhere urging people to be a little more balanced, even tougher, when considering risks.<br /><br />This is the only way to beat back the Nanny State.MITmichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712376188659356195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-78712061346588265242013-05-20T07:29:04.285-07:002013-05-20T07:29:04.285-07:00Mit, joshb's emphasis was 'organization...Mit, joshb's emphasis was 'organization'.<br /><br />And he's right, however, it is the political will that animates any political organization.<br /><br />While in general I tend towards your view, there are exceptions.

I agree with you that women and half-men have no place on the front line, but the problem with fixating on the gun or the muscle arm is forgetting the direction it needs to have, and that direction comes from organization and sensible - balanced - ideology (like separation of powers, sensible election systems, honorable servants within whatever State is set up, etc). Americans have a tendency to overestimate the power of guns, and neglect even completely the power of organizations. Unions are weak in the U$A, political parties seems virtually non-exsting, militias seem cowered already! It's a combination that you need. Having only an organization and not physical force to resist tyrannical crackdown is also fundamental weakness. Just don't think that guns and muscles will solve everything because they will be divided & conquered too easily. The State is organized, and unless there is counter-organization where needed the People will decide to give up on the 'resistance' because there isn't any. I don't say you should now unite accross the Empire under one banner, far from it: unite in smaller local organizations, that way you're a swarm, somewhere in between 'loose rabble' and a unitary element. I think in such a system is the greatest strength, provided they have a useful program and the honesty to carry it out.

When she lost she spent the next week crying. She was in tears. What "fighter" cries all the time? Then she tried cage fighting and the stress and anxiety was so severe that it ruined her health.<br /><br />All these things are normal for any female:<br /><br />-crying at the first sign of stress<br />-screaming when they are startled<br />-chronic anxiety about impending matters.<br />-obscessions with self-worth/acceptance<br />-obscessions with body image<br /><br />Females are the weaker sex....period.<br /><br />They have many strengths too -<br /><br />They are now 60% of all college graduates for example.<br /><br />But when it comes to physical stress and combat they aren't up to it and shouldn't be tricked into thinking they are.MITmichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712376188659356195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-19903907164717408952013-05-19T11:40:12.575-07:002013-05-19T11:40:12.575-07:00Every American should see the History Channel'...Every American should see the History Channel's "The Story of US," an English twelve-part series on how the US was built.<br /><br />You can find it on Youtube.<br /><br />The simple truth is that the people who built the United States were fiercesome, fighting, killing individualists who HATED government and solved their own disputes through the barrell of a gun.<br /><br />When I think of how docile, weak, effette, frightened, cowardly, and hysterical Americans are today I JUST WANNA PUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />To maintain liberty every person has to set aside their longings for security and be WILLING TO TAKE RISKS in order to keep the evildoers of government off their backs.<br /><br />And yes that does mean the occassional terrorist will get through the net...so what?<br /><br />More people are killed by deer crashing through the windshields of their cars every year than by terrorists.<br /><br />The American people have to shape up and act like men. And yes I do mean men, and I am a a sexist too.<br /><br />This is the reason why women and homosexuals and half-men like Lindsey Graham all want to join the military and be what they aren't. They all possess masculinity fantasies because only men, real men, have the physical power to contest against other men for their freedom and dignity.<br /><br />That's the way nature made things.MITmichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712376188659356195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-51000560310303729202013-05-19T07:31:58.845-07:002013-05-19T07:31:58.845-07:00Disuniting the Empire (secession) is necessary, bo...Disuniting the Empire (secession) is necessary, both in principle (a nation that big should never exist because it is unmanageable) and for the sake of political expediency (the FED-GOV U$A seems markedly more corrupt then the State legislators ?). It must be understood though that secession can lead to punitive actions by the remaining Empire, which can make an economy in the secceded state become (much) worse (not to mention re-conquest by force). This is a burden the people will need to understand and willing to absorb (it seems to me most people are only obsessed with their personal wealth, while wars, corruption of any kind are not of any interest to them until it starts to hurt their personal wallets; hence their political backbone to the 'the right thing for the sake of the right thing' is limited.) Still it is the right thing to do, dangers should be acknowledged though, attempts prepared to mittigate them (everyone getting land for growing food is a good start.)<br /><br />Taxation revolt is something that the people with less moral backbone may fancy (more money in their pocket), it may cater to the less capable 'revolutionary people.' You then end up potentially with not such a strong and competent 'movement.'<br />Engaging in in taxation revolt is smarter (imho) when you are on the brink of succesful revolution (which is not now, it seems?) Taxation revolt causes the targeted enemy to have an easy excuse to list and harass those not paying taxes ("they don't pay, they don't get police protection, they are disloyal," etc); it destracts those resisting with the fairly useless tax revolt because the enemy will get enough money from other sources to go on; if you can smother the enemy this way you need to organize proper Revolution anyway in the end to set up a new Government/nation, which is what is a more potent activity that could rather precede a taxation revolt, and that makes a taxation revolt more powerful. With organization in place, a taxation revolt might be the last step toward a full Revolution. The withheld taxation could then be redirected to the new Government. You only have such a new Government if you have the necessary organization in place; organization can (and should) mean an election system.joshbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330586192419637066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4480959310171271494.post-80185113643682940052013-05-19T05:30:26.812-07:002013-05-19T05:30:26.812-07:00"[Abrams] was born of Trotskyite family membe..."[Abrams] was born of Trotskyite family members, Midge Dichter and John Podhoretz."<br /><br />Not to mention his father-in-law Norman Podhoretz.
