protect yourself from yourself

Not 1984, but a concept first created by the Brazilian Military Government (Escola Superior de Guerra) in their manifesto for their 1964 CIA backed coup.

Let’s face it. In the United States, we live in a Military Industrial Complex so ferocious and confused that it is devouring itself.

So when the U.S. government decided to leverage the bombing in september of 2001 towards their goals of global imperialism, I was neither surprised nor shocked. And when they decided to abandon the search for Osama Bin Laden in favor of their original agenda– making up for Daddy’s ‘mistakes’ with false intelligence and an Iraqi oil agenda– I was not really that shocked. Dismayed, of course, but not really surprised.

But the speed at which we have attacked our own people has surprised me.

Now, nearly helpless from the panoptic beast we have unleashed upon ourselves, we must reorganize and reproach the kidnapping, abuse, and destruction of the last fronteir of our everydayness in the United States.

A few strategies that inspire new tactics–>
1st. Step towards recouping free movement: map space and bodies
Disappeared in America:
Thousand Points of Light
and acknowledge them

2nd Step present your loss in the space
evoke the disappeared (thanks to Carlos Motta)

3rd Step Recoup and redirect, produce new spaces
and map them
