# Introduction I am going to be coming at this series with a big assumption in mind...***that the DeepState/LeftistSubversion "alliance", or whatever it is, will survive the draining of the swamp...if that even happens. Following from that, there is still time to prepare for whatever happens next.*** So the purpose to put out this series is to help you start building your covert networks NOW. I am aware that this material can be used in evil ways, just as *informationwar* techniques can be, or anonymity methods. It's like a gun, it can be used for good, or for bad. Drug cartels and terrorist organizations use these techniques. *However, since the people who have sworn to protect this country have not done so in regards to the DeepState/LeftistSubversion conspiracy, it is up to you to decide how to protect yourself and your family*. Final intro notes...I have not built a network myself, nor is it likely that I will do so (and we will discuss why that is so as part of the theory discussion on leadership in the process). I have not done all the background reading myself, and some of the background reading comes from sources such as white supremacist or leftist terror groups, so you will have to filter out some chaff to get at the technique. I will be "teaching" from a "learning myself" mode. https://deepgreenresistance.net/images/en/l-McBa_9781609801427_epub_007_r1.jpg # The Concepts We Will Discuss + My analysis of the situation is that this DeepState/LeftistSubversion "Alliance" attained power as a subversive movement of groups cooperating for their own purposes. The key point is that their subversion worked. So the enemy is not a depersonalized and faceless "government". ***It is very specific individuals who have chosen corruption, tyranny, and treason.*** + For this reason, I don't think that traditionally viewed revolutions, such as armed groups hiding in the woods or taking over radio stations...or mass street demonstrations, will work to unthrone these people. I won't say these methods can not work. In fact, they may be the end game. But these things don't happen out of the blue either. + Human activity works best when supported by other humans. We engage in groups to make our actions more efficient. Yet acting in the open against these people has had it's consequences as they do punish their enemies, and get away with it. So organizing for covert action protects you ( and your friends and family that are NOT involved in these activities as well). + Counter-intelligence is key. You don't want enemy spies, or easily compromised people to join your networks. Nor do you want people that aren't committed to your mission. In America, right-wing groups have historically been penetrated more easily by the government; government agents have been able to key in on themes such as patriotism and law and order to "flip", or compromise, or turn, members of right-wing groups. + As a general rule of thumb, you will not want to include people in your networks THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW PERSONALLY. I'll repeat this...***YOU DO NOT WANT PEOPLE IN YOUR NETWORK THAT YOU DO NOT KNOW AND TRUST TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS CONCERNING YOUR NETWORK***. This applies much more strongly if you are considering "direct actions" (read illegal actions, and I urge you not to commit illegal activities, or to advocate illegal actions publicly) https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DV8eaKqWkAAvSNK.jpg + On the other hand, there is this point to make. *Every covert group can have a different function towards your end goal*. In addition, not every group working towards the end goal has to be covert. Along these lines, a person can belong to many different groups with a different function. **Example functions: Propaganda InformationWar Intelligence Blackmail Community Resilience Operations Support Direct Action 1 Direct Action 2 Recruitment Volunteer Emergency Services (established) Security, AKA Counter-Intelligence** + Following up on the last point, membership in several open and established groups can provide opportunities for recruitment and/or intelligence. Your local volunteer fireman or neighborhood watch member may share your views, while hobnobbing in your local political group may give you "back alley" or informal communications with politicians. + And regarding these groups with different functions, it is not just illegal actions that can get you in trouble, but if you do get infiltrated, your actions may be countered because your enemy ***has intelligence on your actions***. So organizing an informationwar group online can be done openly, as we ourselves have done...or a covert group could be organized for specific IW tasks. So you could organize this group without personal knowledge and trust of the people involved, but realize that online actions are easily compromised, not just by human failure, but also by hacking or esurveillance. + You have to understand how subversion works. Not every member of an organization has to be a subversive, or compromised by the subversive movement, for that orhanization's goals and actions to be controlled by the subversive group. *This applies to "the government" as well.* + Leadership - Recruiting, being out in front, organizing...these are all *human* endeavors, and require a certain amount of social skill. If you are the shrinking violet type of person, then you have to understand that the networks you organize will be smaller than a person with a normal, in general, social network, can generate. >"For most of human history, the art of the hero wasn't left up to chance; it was a multidisciplinary endeavor devoted to optimal nutrition, physical self-mastery, and mental conditioning. The hero's skills were studied, practiced, and perfected, then passed along from parent to child and teacher to student. The art of the hero wasn't about being brave; it was about being so competent that bravery wasn't an issue. You weren't supposed to go down for a good cause; the goal was to figure out a way not to go down at all. Achilles and Odysseus and the rest of the classical heroes hated the thought of dying and scratched for every second of life. A hero's one crack at immortality was to be remembered as a champion, and champions don't die dumb. It all hinged on the ability to unleash the tremendous resources of strength, endurance, and agility that many people don't realize they already have." --Christopher McDougall, "Natural Born Heroes" + Study is fundamental. These are things that *you* must understand. I can give you a rough outline and discussion, and I can point you at study material, but when it comes down to any given make-or-break point in your social networking, it is you that have to know what you are doing. + Start a new online identity separate from your own before you organize any online covert groups. Learn OPSEC methods ***BY HEART*** before you put your own family at risk. + Keep your mouth SHUT. Loose lips sink ships. Look before you leap. Measure twice, cut once. Once you have been penetrated/infiltrated/subverted, it's too late for a second reading of *what you should have done* # Background Reading You could spend a lot of time on the *Mountain Guerilla* site alone, but it's best to always absorb material from different angles. My suggestion is to read these links in the order listed, although as I have said, I have not done a full study myself. >Radical book club examines how to organize for power successfully.

I have added some images which give *possible* variations of underground cells. How you organize your own cells and functions is at your discretion. My major points are these: + Keep your cards close to your chest + Study and decide what you need to do and learn based on your strengths and weaknesses + >That’s what movements are about: gaining power. Movements don’t just happen. And they’re not the product of orders from on high, or rent-a-protestors paid out of somebody’s checkbook. They’re the product of a lot of people doing a lot of hard work over a very long time.
