Methodology of Active Resistance

The institutions of our country have been thoroughly infiltrated and corrupted by elitism, anti-democracy, and anti-American practices that destroy freedom. These institutions have come to stand against freedom and equality. These institutions have also trivialized and incapacitated those structures meant to express the will of the people. As a direct result of these changes, normal means of political contribution, discourse, and progress have been attenuated and replaced by empty, spurious constructs that in reality do nothing to realize change. In order to continue the progression of society, it is necessary for a new means to become available by which the voice of the people in political change may be fortified and restored to that appropriate for a free, democratic nation. This means is active resistance.
Active resistance can be practiced in many different ways, the most important of which are noncompliance, civil disobedience, and active insurgence. Simply put, noncompliance is refusal to participate in or support those groups and institutions that stand in the way of progress, destroy democracy, or otherwise are detrimental to progress and freedom. Noncompliance means detaching oneself from the negative, isolating those forces detrimental towards progress, and removing them by 'starvation' of sorts.
Civil disobedience is the organized, systematic violation of laws, social customs, or statutes with the intention of affecting societal change. Civil disobedience is most effective when practiced by large groups, and is only truly effective when practiced nonviolently. Civil disobedience works to accentuate and draw attention to unjust laws, practices, and customs. It simultaneously counteracts both the effectiveness and validity of the law through mass-scale revolt and practical mitigation.
Active insurgence is the most radical means of practicing active resistance. Active insurgence is the restructuring of society through active rebellion and organized destruction of anything which facilitates elitism and anti-democracy. It can include the physical destruction of that which aids anti-democratic institutions, or more effectively, subtle ideological violence, societal impulsion, and physical suppression of anti-democratic impellent agents.
By the proper application of these principles, societal change can be introduced effectively and quickly. Progress can be made freely once the exercise of these principles has led to the destruction of anti-democratic forces and institutions in our nation.

Hope you enjoyed, until next time...
