"FASCISM! An Army Orientation Fact Sheet, 1945

Fascism is a way to run a country—it’s the way Italy was run, and the way Germany and Japan are run. Fascism is the precise opposite of democracy. The people run democratic governments, but fascist governments run the people.

Fascism is government by the few and for the few. The objective is seizure and control of the economic, political, social, and cultural life of the state.

Why? The democratic way of life interferes with their methods and desires for: (1) conducting business; (2) living with their fellow-men; (3) having the final say in matters concerning others, as well as themselves.

The basic principles of democracy stand in the way of their desires; hence — democracy must go! Anyone who is not a member of their inner gang has to do what he’s told.

They permit no civil liberties, no equality before the law. They make their own rules and change them when they choose. If you don’t like it, it’s 'T.S.' [tough shit].

They maintain themselves in power by use of force combined with propaganda based on primitive ideas of 'blood' and 'race,' by skillful manipulation of fear and hate, and by false promise of security. The propaganda glorifies war and insists it is smart and 'realistic”to be pitiless and violent.

How It Starts

Fascism came to power in Germany, Italy, and Japan at a time of social and economic unrest. A small group of men, supported in secret by powerful financial and military interests, convinced enough insecure people that fascism would give them the things they wanted.

They did so partly by clever propaganda and deception. They promised the people that fascism would bring them great power and prosperity. The details differed from country to country but the general pattern was the same.

(. . .)

To big business men and the industrialists they secretly promised greater security and profits through the elimination of small business competitors and trade unions and the crushing of socialists and communists. To the whole nation they promised glory and wealth by conquest. They asserted it was their right, as a 'superior people,' to rule the world.

As soon as these methods had won them enough of a following to form their Storm Troops, the fascists began using force to stifle and wipe out any opposition. Those who saw through the false front of fascism and opposed them were beaten, tortured, and killed.

The fascists knew that all believers in democracy were their enemies. They knew that the fundamental principle of democracy — faith in the common sense of the common people — was the direct opposite of the fascist principle of rule by the elite few. So they fought democracy in all its phases.

How It Works

It was easy enough for the fascists to promise all things to all people before they were in power. Once they were actually in power, they could not, of course, keep their contradictory promises. They had intended in advance to break some, and they did break those they had made to the middle classes, the workers, and the farmers.

As soon as the fascists were in control of the government, the torturings and the killings were no longer the unlawful acts of a political party and its hoodlum gangs. They became official government policy.

Among the first victims of this official policy were those farmers, workers, and small business men who had believed the promises that had been made to them and who complained that they had been .sucked in.'

Some simply vanished. Often they came home to their families by return mail in little jars of ashes.

The concentration camps and graves filled with the opponents of fascism. Out went equality before the law, free elections and free political parties, independent trade unions and independent schools, freedom of speech and freedom of the press, and, in time, freedom of religion."

Somewhere between pacifism that is just passivism and starting a pyrrhic hot war that only entrenches authoritarianism, there’s some kind of jiu jitsu here that is active and forceful resistance, but uses the regime’s own force against them.

I do not pretend to know what exactly that is. I do believe that a diversity of tactics is important — and that we’re all going to have to accept the work of holding ourselves together as a resistance even as people choose very different tactics we’re not comfortable with ourselves.

@inthehandsPaul Cantrell I'm going suggest reading the first half of "Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife" by Col. John Nagl. amazon.com/Learning-Eat-Soup-K You're essentially fighting an insurgency of well-equipped fanatics who lack local support, logistics, and discipline. Nagl is smart, he revised the Army's counterinsurgency manual, and he compares how the British in Malaysia effectively defeated communist insurgents while still keeping the public on their side.

The book is not so much on military operation but on winning hearts and minds, showing how one army did and another army didn't in very similar conflicts.

That's essentially your challenge - direct armed confrontation will not work, surrender will not work, but the current tactics seem to slowly be working. Tracking them, getting in their way, goading them til they lose discipline, not letting them have a good night's rest, pressuring companies not to do business with them - all that corrodes their morale. The danger is someone else will snap and shoot another poet in the face again. But they've already proven they'll do that casually so there's really no additional risk.

They're an occupying force. Make them feel that every day until they leave. Make every Minnesota winter day that much colder and more miserable for them. Be like the northern Midwest winter and make them hate life.

일인가구 꾸려보니까 어릴때 왤케 두부 심부름을 많이 하게 되는지 알거같음. 요즘 두부는 공장에서 완전밀폐 포장되어 나오는거라 3개월을 버티지만 예전엔 시장에서 오픈된걸 사오는거잖아? 집에다 쌓아둘 수도 없는데 소모는 엄청 빨리되는 식재료임. 근데 된장찌개에는 두부가 거의 마지막에 들어감, 없으면 지금 빨리 가서 사오면 세이브야 그래서 저녁시간 어린이 만화동산 보던 애들이 갑자기 호출 벼락을 맞는거임ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Look at what I found on the internet today!

소방 당국은 16일 오전 5시께 서울 강남구 개포동 구룡마을 4지구에서 “빈집에서 불이 났다”는 신고를 받고 출동해 화재를 진화 중입니다. 소방당국은 애초 대응 1단계를 발령했다가 불이 주변 야산으로 번질 우려가 있다고 보고 대응 수준을 2단계로 격상했습니다. 인명피해는 현재까지 없으며, 25명이 스스로 대피했습니다.

Additionally, civil defence spokesperson Mahmoud Basal accused of restricting the entry of necessary shelter, caravans and construction materials into , compounding the natural disaster unfolding in the territory.

"A new polar storm is approaching Gaza, and what lies ahead will be catastrophic," Basal warned, adding that the coming days will bring "preventable deaths".

The Government Media Office in the strip stressed in its latest press release on Tuesday that "Gaza is dying slowly", adding that more than 7,000 tents were swept away in the past two days due to the strong winds and heavy rain.
