"A Social Violence
Manifesto"
³ by ³

À ÄÄ Ù

For all you
"hard-core anarchists" out there, here’s a little pop
quiz. #3 pencils only. No
cheating, now.

I said NO CHEATING! That means YOU, the little bastard in the /> coke-bottle glasses who took a few minutes off from drooling over "Leather
Goddesses
of Phobos IX" to read this tfile! We’ve got your number, pal!

Now that that’s been
taken care of, let us proceed.

Q: What action from the following list will go further
in provoking
a state of anarchy?
A: Blowing up a mailbox with a homemade pipe bomb. /> B: Standing in the middle of a shopping mall and singing
"The Star-Spangled
Banner" backwards.
C: Sitting at home and playing "Commander Been Versus the

Dildo Monster" for the fortieth time.

Anyone who answered "A" can stop
reading now. And while you’re
at it, why not burn all your copies of the Anarchist Cookbook,
all your
generic tfiles (not the BLaH ones!), and your Loompanics catalog. Then
go get a
nice haircut and join the Young Republicans before you get hurt.
Anyone who would have
answered "C" probably hasn’t even read this
far, having since gone back to trying to
run "Wolfenstein 3-D" on a CGA
monitor.
If you answered "B" (and
there wasn’t much choice after the "A" and
"C" crowd left), this tfile is
for you.

ANARCHIST PHILOSOPHY
Anarchy, as a philosophy, means many things to many
people. For
some, it is the path to tearing down the old order and erecting a new one.

Others simply delight in pure chaos. Many people just feel that the world
or nation we have
now is unlivable, and that anarchy is the purest path
to change. For all its faces, there are
a few things that anarchy is NOT.
Anarchy is NOT an excuse for mindless destruction, nor is it
an
excuse to shut yourself off from the world ("I don’t care about politics,
dude,
I’m an ANARCHIST!"). Blowing up a mailbox does nothing to contribute
to the movement– it
just damages property that YOUR taxes pay to replace,
and hurts a lot of people who should
have the right to send their mail
without worrying about mad-bomber-geeks.
To distance
myself and like-minded people from this rather less-
than-illustrious crowd, I humbly suggest
a new name for an old philosophy:
Social Violence.

SOCIAL VIOLENCE PRIMER

Our world, or at least our nation, is stupid. It may have always
been stupid, it may have been
a gradual process, it may have been the Cosby
Show or McDonald’s hamburgers or the Illuminati
for that matter, but the
basic fact is beyond denial: we exist in a society which prizes
ignorance
and intolerance.
The majority of people don’t LIKE to think. They don’t know
how
to do it anymore. A publishers’ survey revealed that less than 2% of our
nation’s
population regularly visits a bookstore. Some of the fastest-
growing religions, and the ones
with the most political power, are the
Fundementalist sects which decry logic and independant
thought as tools
of their "satan" while commanding obedience to a self-contradictory
Bible.
Dan Quayle, surely a monarch among morons, recently made a speech denouncing
the
"cultural elite" (read: smart people), while prizing "good old-fashioned

values" (read: Christian fundementalism and the degredation of Women).
The process begins
at an early age, in our very schools. Children
with sports skills are popular, while those
with a scholarly bent are
regarded as "nerds" and outcast. This indoctrination
continues through
high school, by which time most Americans are happy, complacent idiots
who
would rather pop a brewski and watch Monday Night Football instead of
opening a book
and (Gods forbid) learning something about the world they
live in.
Social Violence is a
response to this threat. Its motto: if the
people won’t think on their own, we must FORCE them
to think!
Don’t let the name mislead you; the "Violence" part of the name
is
not necessarily PHYSICALLY violent– in fact, physical violence (boom)
is usually
counterproductive. The violence in question is directed against
the very fabric of the
offending society, with the goal of "killing"
society itself.
This can be
accomplished through the disruption of daily routine,
shaking people out of their personal
stupors. Picture your average shopping
mall on a Saturday afternoon, packed with shuffling
zombies on their way
from one overpriced boutique to the next. Suddenly, in the main
concourse,
horns blare, bells ring, and a gigantic sign reading "THINK!" unfurls
from
the ceiling.
No, it’s not going to cause a revolution, but everyone present

at the time has been shaken up a bit. Their expectations of a regular
day have been shattered,
and they will go home to their families with
the story of the strange, funny thing that
happened to them that day.
And, with luck, they might just start thinking about what the sign
said.
If it sounds like I’m advocating public practical jokes as a
pathway to social
change, give yourself two points for listening. That’s
EXACTLY what I’m advocating. You don’t
need bombs, chemicals or guns to
spread anarchy and fight the system; all you need are the
things that
already set you apart from the rest– smarts and creativity. Even without

special equipment (as in the prior example), you can practice social
violence. Take a tip from
our pal George Carlin– rush into a retail
store, looking panicky and out of breath, run up to
the clerk and scream,
"IS THIS [day of the week]?" When she says yes, shout
"THANK YOU!" and
leave. That’s all there is to it.
Of course, if you decide
this isn’t for you, then that’s your
right. In a perfect society, everyone should be able to
do what they
wish without interfering with anyone else. But until this IS a perfect

society, there will always be a need for Social Violence.

By the way– episodes 1
through 6 of "Commander Been Versus the
Dildo Monster" are now available from Weenie
Software, $45 for 1-3, $40
for 4-6 (1-3 required), $100 for all six.

SPECIAL
SEGMENT by Guido Sanchez

here, for the pleasure of all, are the lyrics to the
Star-Spangled Banner
backwards. Remeber, originality doesn’t count unless you make people
think.

——————————————–
Banner Spangled-Star The />
Bra-ave home the and free, the of land the o’er
Wave yet banner spangled, star that
does say oh there still
Was flag our that night the, through proof gave air in bursting

Bombs the glare red rock-ets, the and streaming gallantly
So were watched we ram-parts, the
o’er fight perilous,
The through stars bright and, stripes broad whose gle-a-ming
Last
twilight’s the at "hailed we proudly so what?" <ÄÄÄooh!
Light early dawn’s the
by, "see? you can sa-ay oh!" <ÄÄÄdouble ooh!ÄÄ

Ball Play!
/> ———————————————

Ok, you can either sing the same tune,
these lyrics.. or make the words
themselves backwards and pronounce them phonetically.. do
whatever turns
you and others on.
