‘They’ve F**ked Us All’: Shocking Review of Occupy, Progressive & Anarchist Training Manuals

In the wake of May Day demonstrations and the string of non-peaceful action that ensued across the country, The Blaze is providing a refresher course in the tactics used by progressives, anarchists, Occupiers, the 99% Spring and labor unions in their collective push to rise up against the 1%. What follows is a collection of some of the more interesting progressive handbooks to come to light.
The SEIU training manual
Outdated by nearly 30 years yet apparently still deemed relevant by its subscribers, the Service Employees International Union’s (SEIU) training manual lays out in detail, a host of intimidation and pressure tactics members are urged to us against their perceived foes (in other words, any employer who resists their demands). The manual’s existence was made public when it was entered as evidence during a court trial and exposes just how desperate SEIU organizers must be to retain their strangle-hold on both dues-paying members and employers alike. The Blaze reported on the manual’s many anomalies back in July of 2011, and now the guide to pressure and intimidation is featured below in its entirety. It’s an exhaustive 70 pages and the scan’s quality makes certain passages difficult to read, but the overall theme that emerges in the document is one of pure, unabashed manipulation — and how to do so in the most effective way possible.
Among its instructions, SEIU details how legal, political, media and regulatory pressure can all be exploited to manipulate employers and help the union realize its goals. It encourages, in a not-so-subtle way, the blackmailing of employers with whom it disagrees by first damaging their reputations, and encourages placing “outside pressure” to jeopardize “relationships between the employer and lenders, investors, stockholders, customers, clients, patients, tenants, politicians, or others on whom the employer depends for funds.”
One of the most telling passages of the SEIU manual reads:
It may be a violation of blackmail and extortion laws to threaten management officials with release of ‘dirt’ about them if they don’t settle a contract. But there is no law against union members who are angry at their employer deciding to uncover and publicize factual information about individual managers.
Behold “Exhibit 8”: The SEIU Training Manual.
The 99%’ers Occupy Wall Street Handbook
Another training manual to surface out of the array of leftwing demonstrations is the “99%’ers Occupy Wall Street Handbook“ brought to you by ”Anarchy Books and Renegade Publishing,“ the ”Wake the F–ck Up“ Company and the ”Expose the Criminals Productions” — all of which seem to be the brand of 9/11 conspiracy theorist (and ironically, “birther”) Jeff Prager. While there is little personal information to be found on Prager, his Scribd page (linked above) reveals a paranoid if prolific author seemingly obsessed with Wall Street, Zionism, President Obama, American government’s “purposeful” engineering of 9/11, the Occupy movement and corporate greed.
The manual begins with the line: “They’ve f**ked us all“ and seems to be particularly preoccupied with ”pigs” a.k.a. police. Oddly, the creator lumps the police force in with Wall Street’s 1%, essentially suggesting that the department comprises a band of wayward henchmen who roam the streets looking for innocent women (and apparently, grandmothers) to brutalize at the behest of their Wall Street overlords, a.k.a. “Illuminati gods.” Sound inspirational?
You can guess where it leads next. Below is the entire handbook for review.
The Occupy Handbook
Another book available for purchase is Janet Byrne’s Occupy Handbook, which, according to its description, captures the Occupy Wall Street phenomenon “in all its ragged glory, giving readers an on-the-scene feel for the movement as it unfolds while exploring the heady growth of the protests, considering the lasting changes wrought, and recommending reform.”
Framed as a “guide to the occupation,” The Occupy Handbook claims to be a go-to source for Occupiers in their quest for knowledge and information on the greedy 1%.
The 99% Spring training manual
The 99% Spring has been careful to distinguish itself from the broader Occupy movement and released a training manual to explain its platform and further members’ ends. The manual does seem to state that corporations, rather than the individually wealthy who comprise the 1%, should be targeted for non-violent resistance. MoveOn.org organized the training and some have observed that this might be one indication that the Democratic party is attempting to take over the movement.
Rebuild the Dream
While not specifically a training manual per se, a nod to Van Jones’ new book, “Rebuild the Dream” bears mention as it is framed as a blueprint for the 99%. And of course Jones has been outspoken in his involvement in the 99% Spring movement.
The kids are alright…or maybe not
A review of anarcho-leftist training guides wouldn’t be complete without mentioning the kids. A recently launched children’s book on anarchy titled “A Rule is to Break” A Child’s Guide to Anarchy“ guides children on being their ”best self” by breaking the rules. After all, those stifling, and in their view, personality-killing “adult rules” are frowned upon by anarchists. To give you an idea of its content, below is Bill Ayers’ review on the book [emphasis added].
“… A delight to read! A children’s book on anarchy seems somehow just right: an instinctive, intuitive sense of fairness, community, and interdependence sits naturally enough with a desire for participatory democracy, feminism, queer-rights, environmental balance, self-determination, and peace and global justice.” - Bill Ayers / author (’To Teach: The Journey in Comics‘ and ’Fugitive Days’), teacher, Barack Obama’s alleged terrorist pal, and grandpa. ”
Sounds like the feel-good read of the day. Watch the video clip for a “A Rule to Break” below.
It should be noted that the examples featured above are merely a cross-section of the Occupy, Black Bloc/anarchist, 99% Spring and union training content available online. There are additional handbooks available in hardcopy format, but are mostly relegated to the confines of these organizing bodies.

Report Post »Just as Catholics bring up their kids to be Catholic,
commies bring up their kids to be commies. See :
1) Raising Reds, Paul Mishler, Columbia University Press,1999.
2) Red Diapers: Growing up in the Communist Left,
Edited by Judy Kaplan and Linn Shapiro, University of Illinois Press, 1998.
3) Loyalties, Carl Bernstein, Simon & Schuster, 1989.
4) Radical Son, David Horowitz, The Free Press, 1997.
What you end up with is
5) Steal This Book, Abbie Hoffman.
6) Family Circle, The Boudins and the Aristocracy of the Left. Susan Braudy, Knopf, 2003.
The general idea is the opposite of the Boy Scouts. Every day, in every way, keep an eye open for any way to screw up this country. You could be a secretary, or a scientist, or a policy wonk, or an engineer, a lawyer, or in the navy, or a hippie, or a secretary to some talking head. It is the mentality that matters.
Anyone who thinks they are stupid should consider the following.
a) they got to the head of Brit counter-intelligence and he patiently explained all the weaknesses of the Brits … to the biggest mass murderer on the planet. And J. Edgar Hoover had to brief this guy on American stuff !
b) They did this starting back in the twenties – and we are just learning about this stuff ?
c) Power always tries to get information on, and control, both sides.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 3:36pmThese idiots are really going to be ticked off when they find out about all the programs Obama has for farmers and pay them to do nothing. My sons have a rance with over 1400 acres. A program called CRP pays to not plant a crop except sunflowers and other weeds to provide food for birds on property lines.We call it CRAP program. Dept of Agriculture also under another program pays my sons to bulldose trees and clear the land. On 260 acres my sons will harvest pecans this year and thats it. They lease 1000 acres to 4 hunters for $15,000 and their pastureland for $12,000 a year Last year – no pecans and neighbors lost their rears to high cost of feed and buying hay from other states. My sons made $72,000.00 when they just farmed would make about $95,000.00 before paying for fuel, seed, fertilizer and all those other expenses. These turkeys think my sons are planting oats, wheat, soybeans to make enthynol for their hybred cars so they can feel good about saving the invironment.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 12:32pmYou mean they have to have a manual to tell them how to be an anarchist? Doesn’t that kind of defeat the whole purpose? I’ve thought all along that the rapes, public defecating, and lack of hygiene was a pretty good example of what anarchy is all about. I didn’t know you had to read a book to figure out how to do those things.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 1:18pmAfter reading this article and your response, you are absolutely right. Think I will quit working and write a book on “How To Get The Lazy, Far-Left Communists/Occupiers Back To Work”. Another book I will write is, “Union Campaign Contributions – Kiss Your Pensions Good-Bye” or perhaps to shorten that title, it should be “RICO LAWS 101”. Oh, these Unions are certainly behind the Union Workers, that is until these workers stop paying those union dues that those big-shots live like a capitalist off of ! Does anyone know if any of that richest 1% are union big-shots ? Now, that would be funny. Those books mentioned in this article that the Union shovels down its members’ throats is unbelievable.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:29pmOh, yeah, it’s such a cute idea to have a book for children on how to break the rules. Really.
Has anyone ever been in a classroom or on a playground with a child who can’t do anything but cause trouble? Anyone notice that there have been more incidents of children being arrested and handcuffed by the police when they act out?
I know of two kids who at the age of 8, broke into a classroom and painted the walls with glitter, glue and paint. They did well over $40,000 worth of damage and everyone was “surprised”.
What a sad way to be. And it‘s going to be sadder still when these kids grow up and end up being on the wrong end of someone else’s “break the rules” bit.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 12:10pmOccupiers are really interesting. They call others greedy yet want the government to take money from others and give it to them. They want to break rules, but want rules placed on corporations and the 1%. They want to end capitalism and spend much effort doing it, yet don’t seem to have a plan to replace it.

The Unions, Radicals & Soros types are using them as useful idiots; and it’s a damn shame that American kids have become so indoctrinated! I blame the parents as well; don’t they talk to their kids? Don’t they teach their kids to think things through?

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 11:33amThe key to getting our country back will lie with the corporations and companies, in the USA, that are sitting on an overabundance of cash. These companies see what is coming and they don’t like it at all. The unions will end up dead and gone or insignificant. They don‘t like the winds of change that are blowing in the wrong direction and they don’t like violence that disturbs productivity of companies. The manual above shows what has happened to this nation which has been taken over by anarchists. All of these corporations will put pressure on the economy by NOT hiring and waiting till November for the right outcome of the election. Obama and his inept administration has done more harm than anyone in the history of this nation. Socialism does not fit into the fabric of our country so let them go to Europe and South America and anywhere else to push their restrictive agenda.

Report Post »All mass movements, as one might expect, slip with the greatest of ease down an inclined plane made up of large numbers. Where the many are, there is security; what the many believe must of course be true; what the many want must be worth striving for, and necessary, and therefore good. In the clamour of the many resides the power to snatch wish-fulfilments by force; sweetest of all, however, is that gentle and painless slipping back into the kingdom of childhood, into the paradise of parental care, into happy-go-luckiness and irresponsibility. All the thinking and looking after are done from the top; to all questions there is an answer, and for all needs the necessary provision is made. The infantile dream-state of the mass man is so unrealistic that he never thinks to ask who is paying for this paradise. The balancing of accounts is left to a higher political or social authority, which welcomes the task, for its power is thereby increased; and the more power it has, the weaker and more helpless the individual becomes.
Whenever social conditions of this type develop on a large scale, the road to tyranny lies open and the freedom of the individual turns into spiritual and physical slavery.
