C•PAN MANIFESTO!


      Our universe is a school. It matures in exponential complexity. Nothing point bang light eternities eddies clouds galaxies stars nova planets land sky sea life cell bug plant fish beast being word tool techne kingdoms glyph alphabet book culture on and on. From equations to DNA’s inseminal dissertations, the ephemeral University is evolving code.
      We are here to become more than what we are.
      When we stop being students we become failures.

CPROBLEM
      History is a war between enslavement & emancipation. In the jihad of souls & society, everyone takes sides. STATPOLSYST EINC  (state static police political policy cyst system one economic ink incorporated) Rules this Era of Invisible Chains. Its arms are economics, industrial-military complexes, markets, media, surveillance, and the law, and its keystone precept, the essence of its dogma and ideals, the one adjective, the one word that sums up our world, is - common.
      The modern world is common. Our would be masters, the IV LEAGUE, wants us commoner.
Public indoctrination education to bells, chairs, the workweek, reforms the young so the old may better employ them. Youth are inured to be being told what to think & learn to rigorously regurgitate if they want the reward of approval. Everyone is put in their place. The Ace IV Usurer Pharaoh bloodsuckers, the meek middling Salarymen, the mass of Laborers are all a part of the pyramid scheme.
      The process continues through the College Debtation Vacation where we spend 4 years to get a resume passport to officeland. Once there, in that stale air, people’s souls simply seem to atrophy as they accept a wage and look forward to weekends and retirement. They have officially sold themselves away, taking stock in the EINConomy & believing in better living through wages. The rat gets the cheese.
      The personal problem is but a micro symptom of STATPOLCYST’s macro dominion.

      Democracy makes mobs rule and throws down kings’ blood to moneys’ sway of abstract corporate consensus created by shared experience via mass media irritrainment as the audience IV TV and its programmed manipulations, mutating man to sheep, dogs & hogs, while machines virally infect like insects, as cops and drugs process us into uniform mandated monotony, molding masters into materialistic morons droning on & on & on - SIG HYLE (sig heil matter’s sign sighted signature significance).  
      Above, O’ Gelded Capital of Fort Nots controls by demanding your ID card, your papers, your files, your money, your obedience – enforced by the iron of an omnipotently armed New World Order keeping omnipresent surveillance to rule a new Dark Age where Governments replace Gods & we join Corporations like Churches.
      Below, the Ugs, homo inferiorus, breed as DEGRADED PACKS LITTER (devolved toxic mob trash breeding pollutes)  this world. Our food is poisoned and the forests are paved, corporations rise, own all, we’re their slaves. Fuel is run out, fish swim in mercury seas, storms swarm the horizon, there’ll be famine and disease. We are running out of the future.
      Our train is steaming down the tracks to the Omega Station - end of the human line. Do you think STATPOLCYST EINC is going to stop that train? They call it the Progress Rail Road. The Omni-Productivity Superhighway. AKTUNG! ALARM! AVERT! Switch the Track!

      In this damnation, we’re busy doing nothing, BEING LABORED (is life existing suffering through bored work), getting old. MY HEART BEATS BREAKS.
Agree conform earn cease rest work consume sit ask watch screen connect keep wait secure stop submit.
Against this objectionable world of cells; YOU ARE SUBJECT.
FUCK DIS. Refuse. Rebel. Reign. RA RA RA!


CPOSTULATES
1.    Some don’t know what freedom is, nor do they care, desiring only the comforts of serving in reins.
2.    The activities of the general population are not good indications of when and how YOU can be free and at what cost. Nor does an overall decrease in freedom for the general population necessarily mean a decrease in freedom for you unless your actions are essentially the same as those of the general population.
3.    What is supposed to be controlled and what is supposed to be free, in general, is often not true in the specific case. The walls have cracks.
4.    A rational person is only interested in freedom he can personally obtain, not in some vague future time via sweeping social changes. No man has lived in the past, and none will ever live in the future; the present alone is the form of all life, and where the battle lies.
5.    Freedom is not a word. You are free when you can do what you want without control. You are free when you can do your heart’s true desire without coercive interference.
6.    Freedom is not free. You must act by organizing resources and creating opportunities to gradually realize freedom. To liberate yourself, by being yourself, in a world that is doing its best, night and day, to make you like everybody else, is to fight the hardest battle that any human being can fight. First you must desire freedom, understand how you are limited, and then act to gain freedom, if you hope to achieve freedom.
7.    Some constraints may be welcome and embraced. Pick wisely.
8.    The revolution is internalized.


CPREDICATE
      You want freedom. You need to live. To live you must have something to eat and someplace to shelter. To get those things you need money, to get money you (think) need a job, to get a job you need another’s approval, to have another’s approval you need belaboring obedience and the proper papers in your past, to get the proper past you must put on the proper persona and be a compliant cog in the Machine. Thus you negate your true will and lose the freedom you sought to gain, having your spirit stultified, becoming a puppet on strings climbing to be a boss hog. Know they only trust those they truss.
      This objectionable labyrinth of Catch-22 chains makes you its subject, forced into relations that type you into sentences. The tragedy of our common world is having to conform to a ridiculous artifice of reinforced consensus, whose roles are theatrical, where styles are poses, where clothing is costume, when rules are conventions, and crises are arranged, as conflicts are performed, supported by lying figures on an ideological ground.
      Two marked trends of the past centuries has been an increase of individualism and corporatism. These trends exist in opposition. Individualism arose as the influence of Church, Family, & Race waned. Men have since come to regard their position demarked by their trade and title in waxing Corporations, legally required to make as much money as possible, granted legal personhood, utterly irresponsible to human needs, existing solely to perpetuate themselves in a state of continuous growth. Their rapaciousness has engulfed the earth and is leading humanity to terracide. They have sold the ground from under unborn feet forever. Men have become the tools of their trades.
      STATPOLSYST’s political process of modern media democracy is easily manipulated as broadcast media content is determined by advertisers who fund the content, and so corporate wishes have trumped the scattered individuals’ concerns time and time again, giving us a status quo of hypermediocrity. Peoples’ dependence upon the system has led to the rich lacking all conviction, having been bought out and incorporated into the process, while the poor are full of passionate impotency. All their lives are tedious bullshit. Fuck that.
      This problem is manifest to so many people today. The future grows rancid. Pollution is in the air, water, and ground. The planet is burning itself up, its addictive habits headed for an inevitable withdrawal. People breed, places sprawl. Surveillance spreads, control hems us in. Debt soars, corruption cancers. The shit done gone bad and ain’t getting good. Soon we will run out of any place to go as our karma causes the future to pay off the debts of the past. We have no credit.
      Many know this. In coffeeshops and campuses they bitch and wish. Talking is used to hide their inability to act. This is what advocacy groups, nonprofits, and rallies do. They plead to get a statistically significant number of people to support an issue in the vain hope that corrupt governments and corporations will listen to superficial sentiments over the almighty money that keeps them in power. Modern resistance at best makes them take one step back for every two they march forward.
      Potential counts for nothing until it is realized. The inertia of the world sweeps the UGs along and they go with its flow. Resistance may not be “reasonable”, but it is right. For the reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man, seeing rebellious visions and dreaming heresy, in mad defiance of his chains.
      Why not be angry? It’s a damn racket. Don’t play the game. If you do, you support STATPOLSYST and validate its rules by your consent.
      BURN THE SCRIPT.

      What did you want to do? Who did you want to be? Are you doing it? What’s stopping you?
      Who do you believe, why do you believe, what do you believe? Ask - What should I do, where should I go, who should I be with? If you do not have an amazing life, question your answers.


CPARTIES
       World War 3 is between the AUTONIST EMPIRE vs. the ANTHROS. It has been accelerating for decades. The Autonists would make Man mechanical to better control him. The Anthros believe that every Man is free sovereign, a King, born to rule himself & succeed himself.
    The Anthros and Autonists are both select elite groups in humanity. The essential distinction is that the Anthros would raise everyone up while the Autonists are committed to keeping everyone down.
     CPAN seeks to compile essential information that the unbranded Anthros need to cohere into a confederacy of shared ideals to combat the Autonists. A major Autonist weapon is their manipulation their endless ISMs. All the tags available are filled with positional commands of “You must” &“You mustn’t”. The “choices” are the Left’s “Everybody should be the same” or the Right’s “You’re with US or Against US.” These mommy/daddy parties are dynfunctional hypocrites that seek to restrict the freedom all children from one side and the other. To escape this pincer movement, Anthros try to remain unlabeled to groupthink & the Anthros’ presence remains largely invisible and impossible to convey accept in tangential media tastes, which are already co-opted as pop product.
      The Anthros make themselves known only through their individual lives, opinions & works. They are the true counter-culture, positively CONTRARYWISE opposing the dogma of inverted negatives.
      The Autonists suffer the Anthros simply so they can sell scientists’ inventions & artists’ dreams as marketable technological addictions while creative culture becomes branded entertainment of readymade experience and complacency.
      The Anthros need to rectify their dispersion if they want to survive WW3. You are fighting against the Leviathan known as Status Quo and those who are Legion.
      Why try? Though mud people quench fire, time is clay.
      Yet the Autonists seem much better at molding the future. While they are at Church, we are busy sleeping. Cross, Crescent, Law, are all cursed walls. Let them come down. I say we shall fight their Profits with our Prophets.
      “But who? Who speaks for the Anthros?”
       The ghostly voices of the past, who devoted their lives to the Great Work of liberating the world.
       That unachieved miracle of miracles - a free world - is often a fool’s quest. Too few read what freedom fighters have to say. Fewer could appreciate them and the fewest do anything about it, other than congratulating themselves on their awareness of the situation.
      Bits and bytes bombard us. Most is worthless or wrong, the signal lost in the noise. Information is becoming free but meaning is grows expensive. We need a diamond of life casting the invisible light into a rainbow filling the sky.
      EPHEMREAL UNIVERSITY (eph.U.) presents the OCCULTURE, contrarywise current of the sages, hidden through the ages, with its attendant counterfeits excised, distilled 210 proof.
      It is a message in a bottle in these ever darkening days where, "the best lack all conviction, while the worse are full of passionate intensity."
 
CPRACTICE
      We will use what is dominant in the monoculture to create change within that culture, becoming contrarywise, using strategic jujutsu.
      The Machine, with its gross inefficiencies, requires fresh blood to lubricate itself. It needs you more than you need it. It especially needs the bright and the young, because it is dull and aged. Separatism is the way to a new beginning. Those who have internalized their dissent and are ready to sacrifice the succoring safety of the system can liberate themselves by forming unique micro-societies/kult-klans/neo-tribes/etc.
      C•PAN (See Everything/Confederated Princes Autonomous Network/Cooperative Projects Art Nnovation) is such an attempt at providing the best amongst us the chance to live the life we always wanted - full of adventure, challenge, and creativity. We will break their backs by looking the other way.
      Coherant unified separatism can structure group activity to generate more power than individual efforts might achieve, letting us replace reliance on a society of stupid strangers with select capable friends. Synergistic effects come into play in a properly synchronized organization, and the collective power will exceed the sum of individual powers participating. Group working also makes possible many ventures requiring more than one operator and allows for a division of labor when some participants contribute abilities that others lack. En d'autres termes, roll deep. See the vector multiplication & implicit tribalism of art movements, religious cults, gypsies, criminal crews, ethnic entities, sect solidarity, business start-ups, ghetto gangs, rock bands, the circus caravan, etc.

The specifics of how depend of the abilities and tastes of the participants. The only key elements in order of importance are

1. Shared beliefs and goals. Every culture starts as a cult. (See C-PAN - The Free Book - Eph.U.)

2. Self-sufficiency and skills. (See Academy23) The most satisfying work seems to be contracted freelance work, successful aesthetic creations, or risky business. Profitable projects (See DIY HIGH) should be proposed, vetted & voted on to be completed according to agreed upon terms of cost, participation, profits, etc. This would not be democracy, it would be meritocracy where those who sweat are those with say. (See Nomic)
      An ideal way to do this would be as a substitute/adjunct for traditional higher education. A combination of desirable missions, randomly rotating among those with the necessary skills, and a lottery, for the work everybody would prefer to avoid, would lead to equitable efficiency among participants.

3. Resources to overcome initial overhead, until you reap profit and the vast savings in taxes and costs gained through lending or sharing tools, buying wholesale, and using the techniques of business for life’s fulfillment instead of money’s game.

     For example, urban warehouses and industrial buildings can be converted into multiple stores and offices, while providing studios and apartments. Country estates can have a main mansion, numerous private cottages, along with communal gardens. A company car or truck can mean that personal ownership of cars becomes a choice instead of a necessity. Eventually, international outposts can be developed freeing C•PAN from borders. Obviously, such a time is seven leagues away but we cannot wait for magic boots. The ones on order are the human face stampers.
     Yet small goals and manageable tasks applied over time can yield dramatic results.
     We can go from being Amateurs to Agents, Agents to Adepts.
     “We will shoot into infinite space to hit a target in time and call it inevitable.”

      One day the Clan will surpass the Corporation that surpassed the Country that surpassed the Church. The only question is when and whether it will begin with the neo-aristocracy of the rich consolidating the ruling class as lordly Houses over their serfs, or whether fresh blooded kindred will rise before its too late.
      It will, of course, be said that such a scheme as is set forth here is perilous, and goes against the way it is. That is the point. It is unpractical, and against the status quo. This is why it is worth carrying out, and that is why one proposes it. For what is a practical scheme? A practical scheme is either a scheme that is already in existence, or a scheme that could be carried out under existing conditions. But it is exactly the existing conditions that one objects to; and any scheme that could accept these conditions is wrong and foolish and anyone who accepts these conditions is ignorant or cowardly. Once conditions are done away with, human nature will change, and a new world will dawn.


CPAEAN
      I want a purpose greater than early retirement. As a kid, I never wanted a cubicle and a desk. Did you? FUCK GELT. The human race implies a goal. I want a wonderful wish I can fight for, something I can create, against all that is, all that I am subject to, so that DREAMS FLESH.
      Two men look out the same prison bars; one sees mud, the other stars. Fly to the stars or fall back to earth as a worm. The only thing you have to lose is your chains.


SEEDS° sprout out in the mob’s farrow field.
awakening
Some grow PRIME☆ for every star has a number but only some are unique and indivisible.
enlightenment
A NAUT∞ becomes immortal & invisible.


     Solemnly swear to be thine own palace, or else the world’s thy jail. Question. Think. Lose your Illusions. Know thyself. Do as thou wilt. Exceed. Evolve. Turn this cage into a stage and become a star, directed by will, seeking knowledge, to experience revelation. Life may be comic for those who think, and tragic for those who feel, but we need it to be epic for those who will.
There is no sense doing anything minor. You can afford to bet big. The only stake you have is your life and the house odds have yet to see a winner over time.

     LET IT COME DOWN

      Tomorrow grows as a seed today. Let us wish upon sparrows’ wings, that one day we may see a network of castles glowing in the night.
      Be with the Brave, Beautiful & Brilliant.
      Have extreme experiences — sex in space staring at suns sailing corsairs through the starry seas.
      Come away, o’ citizen, and spend this spin about the sun, storming the future and having fun.

THIS IS A FICTION. JOIN THE FACTION.
