    —“Is there data out that suggests what our numbers would *actually* be?”—Johnny Kelly

    a) tell me why you care?
    b) do you mean how many will not resist our solution?
    c) how many will advance or assist?
    d) how many will show up?
    e) how many will fight?

    —“how many will show up?”—

    There are something on the order of 25m who will fight.There are at least 6m who will show up – that’s about right.

    We can only use a percentage of those.Logistically we only want so many. Because you have to supply them all. Logistics begins to outweigh additional numbers rather quickly.

    Speed of movement matters.

    It’s more whether they publicly demand implementation of the new constitution, …

    …. and will they ‘clean house’ locally.

    3. HOW DO WE CREATE A REVOLUTION?
    Starting a revolution as an expression of frustration doesn’t necessarily bring change for the better. And some revolutions are far worse than their original states: France and Russia in particular.

    To implement change one has to have something to demand. And what one demands has to satisfy a lot of people‘s interests. Those demands have to be possible to put into operational processes that we call ‘institutions‘. They have to be possible to persist regardless of the beliefs of the participants. To persist they have to create the right incentives.

    So to create a revolution you need moral authority – something that people will willingly use violence to bring about. And as a moral imperative, and moral justification, TRUTH IS ENOUGH. We are tired of lies, pseudoscience, and obscurant rational justifications. We are tired of our elites burning our civilization.The truth is enough. Unlike gossip, guilting and shaming. And unlike pseudo-science and propaganda, the truth is expensive. Truth is the most powerful argumentative weapon ever developed. And Propertarianism teaches us how to demand truth and speak the truth.

    After moral authority – then you need a political solution – a set of demands, and in sufficient detail that it is possible to discuss rationally, and implement as formal institutions.

    Then you need a sufficient plan of transition that a revolution isn‘t necessary, and people don‘t die by the millions to do it.

    Then you need a method of altering the status quo – not a plan – for nullification, secession, revolution, and civil war – and hope you can accomplish it with incremental nullification and secession … but willing to conduct a revolution or civil war if need be. And you pursue all of them at once.

    Then you need an ‘organization‘ – a group of people who act as the general staff that answer questions, and propose ideas on how to implement, how to transition and how to raise the cost of the status quo so that the transition is preferable to the uncertainty and instability.

    Then you need a small number of people willing to die for their people, culture, and civilization, but who have reasonable belief that their sacrifice is not in vain.

    I don’t go into tactics because that‘s unwise. But in general, I try to get across this idea: How many hours of electricity, days of water, days of food, days of ‘order‘ are in the production line every day? I mean, if bad stuff happens in Ukraine and Russia, 40% of food is produced by the people. Everyone can go back to the village to relatives and the farm. What happens in the developed world if it‘s disrupted?

    We live in the most fragile time in history. It no longer takes masses in the streets to bring about revolution. It takes a small number of people to increase the friction of daily life. It has never been easier to create a revolution. People just need a plan, moral authority, and something to demand.

    It‘s our job to give it to them.

    TERRORISTS USE DRAMA, REVOLUTIONARIES USE ATTRITION HOW THEY TAKE OUT A POLICE DEPARTMENT A molotov cocktail on a moving vehicle. A molotov cocktail to the side of a stopped vehicle. A distraction across the street. A rifle at a distance. It’s a 3 man job. Two motorcycles. One is backup. Patience. Follow. A along side at stop light A Pistol. Wingman with suppressing fire if needed. it’s a two man job. A Road. Roofing nails. Patience. A rifle. it’s a one man job. Attrition. This is how they do it in the ‘developing’ world.

  • HOW TO START A REVOLUTION (PART 2 .. CONTINUED) Code of Honor: 1) Everybody Live

    HOW TO START A REVOLUTION
    (PART 2 .. CONTINUED)

    Code of Honor:
    1) Everybody Lives to Fight another day. Preserve experience assets.
    2) Anyone captured must be freed. They must be afraid to hold you.
    3) Everyone fights without fear of death, or is unsuitable for fighting.

    Relationships:
    When you talk to others avoid all feel-good-talk, and talk only about planning opportunities to act. Do not share personal information, or personal emotions. Bond with others by trust developed through shared action, not by shared feelings or shared words. It is natural to be nervous, but revolution requires men of action not of fantasy.

    Tolerate “whackos’ who are courageous risk takers. They will do what the rest fear to. Be intolerant of ‘whackos’ who are talkative, excessively nervous, fearful or complain, and kill them if you must to keep them from ‘turning’ once you reject them for their instability.

    Fitness
    You do not need to be much of an athlete. But you will be much better off if you cut sugar, bread, dairy, sauces, from your diet and eat clean for six months, and avoid the MSG, which like sugar is a drug. (I”m all for the weed and the alcohol as long as its not on mission).

    STATIST SOLDIERS VS REVOLUTIONARY WARRIORS

    Hold Territory Against Attrition -v-s Impose Attrition from Within Territory

    A soldier must carry a lot of resources, and because of this his fitness demands are higher. He is not at home. He has less information to work with. He cannot easily hide. What he can do is concentrate forces and rely upon information networks.

    Revolutionary Warriors must only concentrate forces for very short periods, and then disperse again into ‘society’. Every moment they hold territory costs them. Every moment we force them to hold territory it cost them.

    A RAID
    How they take out a politician, judge, or enforcer’s house:
    5 or 6 Man Job
    2 or 3 Propane Tanks
    12 beer bottle sized molotov’s.
    10 fist sized rocks.

    Open the tanks, and throw through rear windows. Throw rocks through the front windows. Throw all molotovs through broken front windows. The more gas that escapes prior to the fire the better. Fire burns best when heat can be concentrated, so do not Spread out the fires without increasing the number of men and molotovs. Scatter. Wait for emergency services crews. Use more molotovs, or weapons, to keep crews occupied.

    Always give emergency services the option to remain in or retreat to barracks. They are not the enemy. They just must not be permitted to give solace to the enemy.
