History proves that tyranny is the inevitable result of any form of government, regardless of political ideology.
The reason is simple. The State is the ultimate source of power over others. This power attracts the type of people that should never have power – psychopaths and sociopaths.
Despite whatever screening systems, checks and balances, or legal limitations that are set on government, psychopaths will always find a way to seize power.
Once psychopaths are in key positions of government, that government becomes like a cancer on society growing and devouring all the resources and even the very lives of its people until that civilization dies.
A key characteristic of tyrannies is the unbridled paranoia of the rulers. This causes them to want to monitor and control all aspects of the lives of citizens. Since ancient times, rulers have established elaborate spy and snitch networks to keep their populations in check.
In order to survive the predation of The State, the time-honored strategy of citizens is to form secret communities.
Initially these secret communities are formed to provide financial, medical, and basic life support to its members. However, as government tyranny becomes more extreme, these secret communities become more militant eventually evolving into anti-government, rebel, counter-revolutionary, and guerrilla movements.
This is why governments loath autonomous self-reliant communities and have always sought to destroy them.
As of the time of this writing, the majority of the world’s governments are further along the path to total tyranny than people are aware of.
Those that wish to survive the next 20 years will need to rely on themselves and form communities for mutual aid. Such communities would do well to avoid government attention and should thus employ some degree of secrecy.
Which brings us to this writing.
Originally published in the early 1980’s by the Communist Party of South Africa, How to Master Secret Work contains concise and easy to follow instructions on how organize a secret network and avoid government surveillance.
This is not intended to validate communism, far from it. Marxist infiltration of Western governments is one of the major factors in instituting tyranny worldwide today. But the communists were experts at creating and running subversive revolutionary cells to infiltrate western governments.
The famous strategist Sun Tzu wrote that the key to victory is knowing your enemy. By studying this booklet, one learns some of the strategies our current tyrants used to seize power.
Although written by communists, the following material can be used by any group of people, regardless of political ideology, to create ‘underground ‘communities and secret networks.
