Build the Green Army!

We must draw a clear line between ourselves and the enemy.
-Mao

We are not believers in armed or violent struggle. Throughout this conflict, a conflict that has ebbed and flowed for many hundreds of years between the powerful and the meek, a conflict that began its dramatic escalation during a period of industry and profit, we have seen many factions, rebellions, militias and radicals that have taken up arms and violent forms of protest against the pigs that oppress and murder in order to line their own pockets. While we cheer on the ideology and are sympathetic toward the plight of our comrades in Palestine, Europe, the Africas and Latin Americas, we do not believe that armed or violent resistance is either productive or effective.

The pigs have the media and the subdued conscience of the masses at their disposal. Violent acts committed by the people are easily manipulated by those that pull the strings and as history has proven, what may be rooted in heroic and noble motivations, what may stem from a deep sorrow of the suffering of the world's proletariat...this is in the end only seen by the masses in the terms in which the pig presents them. The struggles of the people are so easily compartmentalized and rationalized into descriptions of "terrorism", "radicalism", "communism", "socialism", etc. when the vehicle to present their grievances is one of violence.

We reject violent acts, but do not consider ourselves neutered or insignificant. We believe that by taking up no arms and proceeding with the struggle with organized, structured and vocal civil disobedience and peaceful protest that much more may be accomplished. We believe it is possible to facilitate extraordinary social change without the MP-5 or the AK-47 or the bomb.

To those that question or may scoff at the idea of an un-armed struggle, to those that consider relinquishing the fire arm or the Molotov Cocktail for the pen and the march to be acts of cowardice or compromise, we ask that the peaceful means in which institutionalized oppression have been taken on throughout history to be considered. We ask that the futility and counter-productive nature of violent acts and how that has played out througout history to be considered. We ask those that doubt to consider how effective and resiliant and what good has emerged from prison cells and caves in the wake of acts of terrible violence. We say to you that more times than not, what has been accomplished through violence has better served the pig than the oppressed, in that the pig convinces the masses that we are a source to be mightily feared and rejected lest a wicked society emerge in our wake. Violence is the tool of the pig, not the oppressed, and should be understood accordingly.

The crisis isn’t the result of the stagnation of development, but of development itself. Since the aim is to increase profit, development encourages parasitism and waste, harming whole social sectors, multiplying needs that it cannot satisfy, and accelerating the disintegration of social life. A monstrous apparatus is necessary to control, by means of manipulation and open repression, the tensions and revolts which it itself often provokes.

-Il Manifesto: The Necessity of Communism, extract from Thesis 33

We subscribe to many of the fundamental ideas of Marx and Mao, King and Gandhi, Meinhof and Arafat, Blanqui and Fawkes. We see the struggle of the oppressed. We see their displacement, their death, their enslavement and their suffering. We understand the nature and the reasons for their struggle, and we know who is to blame. We intend to hold the pig accountable and to dismantle their rotten, corrupt system and promote tangible equality, the re-distribution of wealth and human rights for all. We consider imperialism, apartheid, racism and misogyny to be our enemies. We consider those that rape and exploit the people of the world and their resources to be our enemies. We consider it to be our obligation and our duty to face such enemies and expose them to the face of the world and to be held in judgment of their crimes. Our aim is Justice. Our aim is global Liberty.

Consider how the pig has so effectively and thoroughly convinced the masses to blame the victim. The apartheid occurring in Palestine, for instance, and those that have fought the oppression bestowed upon them by the agents of a Western financed, hostile and religious government are almost universally considered by the Western public to be little more than brutal, animalistic and bloodthirsty figures whose goal is some kind of dark Islamic world domination. While some of these descriptions may be justifiably attributed to some that have fought such an oppression, it does not serve their cause in any case to inflict death and terror to voice their grievances or meet their goals.

We consider death and terror to be the weapons of the pig, employed by his bombs and invasions and his footsoldiers. We see a time in which the masses accurately perceive the true enemy and the true threat to their welfare and Liberty as the brutality of the State and their corporate masters, not the misguided or desperate act of the starving father. We see a time in which the masses accurately perceive the bombing of a neighborhood or the invasion of a city with deadly airstrikes and tanks and M-16's as acts of death and terror, not the perpetual cry of the impoverished or the tears of a motherless child. We see a time in which the nature of the State is exposed as the truly barbaric one, the real animal and the inevitable creators and source of bloodthirsty figures whose goal is indeed a dark world domination...not the exploited and manipulated masses or those that stand for their Liberation.

We consider the path to such a reality to be best accomplished through the revolution of the public conscience, rather than the violent, cumbersome armed revolution of the flesh, which has again, been proven to be vulnerable and susceptable to the lies of the pig. We consider the truth to be our weapon, rather than force or aggression. We see that in this era, the passages of information and truth can be realized with ease and stubborn persistance. We realize that we have the tools to speak, and speak loudly to the people of the world to both those that are oppressed and those that would choose to grind a boot-heel onto the throats of the oppressed. We realize that we should not take action that will lead us to be feared by our comrades or potential comrades...but rather take action that will lead us to exposing the pig...whose only real source of fear is the notion that the trough he sucks from to fatten himself may not be as full tomorrow as it is today. We indeed intend to create circumstances that will deplete their overflowing troughs.

We intend to spread truth, but we will not do so carelessly or with half-measures. We must be persistent, and we must be consistent. We ask our comrades and those that would participate in our struggle to understand that lies, deception, terror, greed and temptation are the tools and the weapons wielded by the pig. In return, we shall employ the use of truth, intellectual courage, altruism, selflessness and goodwill to sear through their weapons, disarm them and expose them for the paper tigers they are.

We ask our comrades, particularly those in the West and enjoying the fruits of an industrialized State, to consider the terrors they toil under daily. We ask them to consider to what extent they have become numb to their oppression and have had their perceptions subdued and co-opted. The pig quietly and deviously presents a low-grade threat to the Liberties of all, shackling the docile citizens of the West into perpetual servitude. From the glowing screens of monitors emitting from the cubicles...our prisons...we are told to participate, to serve the pig. To feed the pig. To be an agent and accomplice to the greed of the pig...or else. Or else you will lose your health care. Or else we will take your home. Or else you will end up in prison. Or else you will be impoverished. Or else you will sacrifice the welfare of your family and children. Or else you will be outcast. Or else you will not be beautiful. Or else you will not get fucked. Or else you will not be happy. Or else you will be ugly. Or else, or else, or else.

Justice is the justice of the ruling class. Faced with a justice system that speaks in the name of the ruling class—and speaks dishonestly—we can’t be bothered defending ourselves."

All power to freedom! Faced with a justice system that defends property and possessions better than it does human beings, we can’t be bothered defending ourselves.

Faced with a justice system that makes laws against the people rather than for them, we can’t be bothered defending ourselves.

...faced with a justice system that doesn’t see crime as a social phenomenon and which passes sentences that serve no social function...we can’t be bothered defending ourselves.

...faced with such a justice system, I can’t be bothered defending myself, and we can’t be bothered defending ourselves. Imprison the state prosecutors. Where is the state prosecutor who will indict the state?

Workers of the world unite!

Venceremos!

-Thorwald Proll

We have spent long enough accepting a status quo that terrifies the masses into submission through such means. We reject being beaten any longer at the end of a corporate leash that promotes the consumption of their worthless products as the only path to normalcy. We reject the universities and the intellectual communities of the West that have turned their institutions into slave mills for the banking cartels. We reject the exploitation of home owners living in fear of their homes being repossessed, and the deceptive, serpentine manner in which the pig has manipulated such fears into the subjecation of the people. We reject an unsustainable system of debt that currently dominates our culture and grips millions by the throat like an iron vice. We reject the circumstance of our health and welfare being wielded over us like weapons, the idea that only the burgeoise are deserving of adequate medicine, clothing and shelter.

Further, we reject the violent exploitation of the third world and its people by the military industrial complex of the West. In most cases, the people of the third world do not have the luxury of the distraction and hypnosis enjoyed by the people of the West. Their enslavement is not veiled or placed upon them through manipulation or deceptive maneuvers. The people of the third world feel the physical lash of pig's whips and the cold steel of the pig's chains. The face of the pig is unmasked and the true brutality of his nature is revealed on the backs of millions...perhaps billions that would otherwise dwell peacefully on the soils of their homelands. We reject the terrorism of Western military installations and warthings that poc the landscape of the planet. We call for the collective voice of our comrades to cry out against this terrorism, this exploitation, this enslavement...this ongoing travesty.

Never believe us! (lol) ...or any information we share, as truth without checking the information independently! We ask to be proven wrong, as we subject ourselves to the light and scrutiny of truth and truth alone.
