A Revolution

My heartfelt companions,

Privet Vsem!

Below I have posted en excerpt from Nechaev's 1869 "Catechism of a Revolutionary."

Please understand the approach I plan to take:


1. The revolutionist is a person doomed [obrechennyi, in older usage signifying also "consecrated"]. He has no personal interests, no business affairs, no emotions, no attachments, no property, and no name. Everything in him is wholly absorbed in the single thought and the single passion for revolution.

2. The revolutionist knows that in the very depths of his being, not only in words but also in deeds, he has broken all the bonds which tie him to the civil order [grazhdanskim poriadkom] and the civilized world with all its laws, moralities, and customs, and with all its generally accepted conventions. He is their implacable enemy, and if he continues to live with them it is only in order to destroy them more speedily.

5. The revolutionist is a person obrechennyi [see first line]. He is merciless toward the state and toward the whole formal social structure of educated society [soslovno-obrazovannogo obshchestva]; and he can expect no mercy from them. Between him and them there exists, declared or concealed, a relentless and irreconcilable war to the death. He must accustom himself to torture.

8. The revolutionist can have no friendship or attachment, except for those who have proved by their actions that they, like him, are dedicated to revolution. The degree of friendship, devotion and obligation toward such a comrade is determined solely by the degree of his usefulness to the cause of total revolutionary destruction.


Although dated to the mid 19th century, we shall follow many of these mandates as they apply to our cause.

The Revelation


There is nothing to be had by succumbing to unjust oppression. Hasellhoff has destroyed everything good in humanity. He has destroyed familial entities, societal order, and every principal this country was founded upon. He has ruined my entire life, and the tranquility between nations.

I cannot, and will not, let this sick bastard prosper. My life is of little worth now, I will devote my energy solely to the condemnation of evil.

My beloved followers, let us mutilate our enemies, as they have done to us. Let us reign fear into the souls of the wicked, who thrive off of sin and iniquity. We shall rest not until every fiber, every filamnet of vice is torn from the innards of the offenders. And if not, then we shall die trying.
