Warts and All

No detailed plan can ever stand the test of reality without having to concede to circumstances at least once.

If the police and the military stay loyal to a government, there is no way that the citizenry can defeat them.

What is needed are simple ideas of justice, taken to their logical conclusions, informing everyone to whom justice is denied. Ideas that can outlast flawed and grasping leaders and their warts.

Ideas and tactics that can generate mass disobedience, even if only passive resistance en masse.

Ideas, principles and methods that can conform to the purest liberal principles while taking those liberal principles themselves to their logical conclusions.

Canadian anarchist thinker Susan Brown talks about that last little bit.
