Real Revolutionaries

Greetings All,

Below is a good article which discusses a real revolution; it may sound like a cliche, but this revolution must begin from within and manifest locally.

Bangkok, Thailand May 24, 2011 - While misguided youth light their cities on fire around the world, clashing with local police and battling with their fellow countrymen, all to the beat of US-funded opposition groups, real revolutionaries are quietly, pragmatically, and intelligently changing society. They do so not with placards, mobs, slogans, or aspirations for political power, but with the declaration, enumeration, and exercise of their innate sovereignty. While we naively hope for a political solution to mete out an equitable distribution of wealth and resources within a system created by hording megalomaniacs, there are those amongst us that understand the only way to solve the immense disparity throughout this world is to stop paying into the system that created it in the first place, and to take responsibility for the world around us on a local level.

Activist Post; Real Revolutionaries

I'm just reading the source link now. But I wanted to post near the top of this one. My thought is that if there is a shadow government secretly controlling the "real" government, then why couldn't there be shadow citizens that work in secret to take and keep control of there lives? Just a quick thought, now I'll read the article.

Actually, since the Shadow Government is almost impossible to deny anymore, we "Real Revolutionaries" have little choice other than to become Shadow Revolutionaries; be the change you want to see. All my efforts now go into taking steps to not contribute to the system which exists to perpetuate itself while it subjugates the rest of us.

Oh, this is about local governments, through Maine's "Home Rule" system, thumbing their noses at the Feds. Good for them! I hope they thrive and overcome the Feds with their jack-booted thugs that are sure to be heading their way.

The Long March Through the Institutions.

By the end of WWI, socialists realized that something was amiss, for the world's proletariat had not heeded Marx's call to rise up in opposition to evil capitalism and to embrace communism instead. They wondered what had gone wrong.

Separately, two Marxist theorists-Antonio Gramsci of Italy and Georg Lukacs of Hungary-concluded that the Christianized West was the obstacle standing in the way of a communist new world order. The West would have to be conquered first.

Gramsci posited that because Christianity had been dominant in the West for over 2000 years, not only was it fused with Western civilization, but it had corrupted the workers class. The West would have to be de-Christianized, said Gramsci, by means of a "long march through the culture." Additionally, a new proletariat must be created. In his "Prison Notebooks," he suggested that the new proletariat be comprised of many criminals, women, and racial minorities.

The new battleground, reasoned Gramsci, must become the culture, starting with the traditional family and completely engulfing churches, schools, media, entertainment, civic organizations, literature, science, and history. All of these things must be radically transformed and the social and cultural order gradually turned upside-down with the new proletariat placed in power at the top.
