AN ALLIANCE OF
THE MEEK

How Social Individualism Means
Real Freedom and Real Social Justice

Who do you have to be to have a stake in the Human Cause? Who do
you have to be to have a say in the Human Cause? By what authority do
some rule over others? If you don't already know the answers—the real
answers—to such questions, this is your chance to discover them.
This is a political manifesto. Not the kind meant to put some evil maniac
in power, but the kind meant to keep all evil maniacs out of power—
forever.
How can that happen? Only by thinking outside the box. That box turns
out to be a cage. . . .

Disclaimer

This work doesn't contain legal advice of any kind. For that, you'll have
to resort to lawyers. Good luck.
It also doesn't purport to be the product of any rigorous research or
formal analysis. Instead, it attempts to show what even informal analysis
can reveal about the world of politics. The word "politics" as used
herein doesn't have its usual narrow meaning encompassing political
parties, elections, and the like. Rather, it's used in a more generic way to
refer to how people do treat each other (and why)—and how they should
treat each other (and why).
Some terms will be coined here. Many others will be misappropriated
and abused, including being used interchangeably in a casual way. All
terms should be taken to be defined by the context in which they appear.
The whole point is to de-emphasize language (which can be and often is
used to deceive) and focus instead on principles. Feel free to substitute
any terms you prefer to use to identify these principles. (Those who like
to obsess over terminology at the expense of Truth, however, should
drop this book at once and enroll themselves in law school.)
Political censorship is one of the worst things people do. Political
censors are the necessary accomplices to genocide and oppression—you
can't have an Adolf Hitler without a Joseph Goebbels. However, no
attempt is made to be exhaustively fair to all sides of the issues raised
herein. This is a pamphlet, not an encyclopedia. In particular, the pro-
Marxian viewpoint is intentionally shortchanged, being more than amply
(if dishonestly) covered elsewhere. You can find it in virtually any of
the products of the Corrupt Media Bloc.
Weigh it all out for yourself, and make up your own mind. Freedom
begins there.
