Beg to disagree: As an example, the original Labor Movement forced the Robber Barons to accept a settlement negotiated through State institutions. The New Deal worked, not just in the U.S. but also in Germany where the Nazi party applied many features of that model and pulled the country back from the brink of starvation. Even given the then-prevailing German tradition of unconditional obedience to authority, they would most likely have rebelled against the excesses of the Nazi agenda had the Party not earned their loyalty by literally saving their country from total ruin. Likewise, the U.S. Civil Rights movement obtained massive concessions via economic and information warfare, again resulting in a negotiated settlement between organized peasants and their rulers. Conditions favorable for a massive popular uprising seem to be on the way in the United States right now, as a consequence of geophysical and geopolitical factors no amount of Super Science or etc. can wish away. Now would be a good time to brush up on one's political warfare techniques, and start looking for winning teams to join up with - or for that matter, to start one's own. http://pilobilus.net/strategic_conflict_docs_intro.html Don't let the "nonviolent" thing put you off: Everyone from Mao Tse Tung to the authors of current U.S. Army counter-insurgency manuals agrees, an armed uprising can not succeed without a /much/ larger base of non-combatant supporters. As a matter of historical fact, revolutions are won or lost before the first shot is fired. ;o)
