DAECLARI!
Alright. Who wants to really make this happen? Who wants to get badass? Who wants to expand this organization, to really make it THE force to be reckoned with on the Left Hand Path? Who's generally sick of the system's bullshit and wants to fight back? Who wants to live a little dangerously, the way people lived back before everything was choked by civility and insurance liability? Who wants to lose (and find) themselves in Holy War?
Old Ones know we need it. The world gets shittier and shittier. A fucking HOLE was ripped in the bottom of the ocean with OIL leaking out of it. The oceans are rising, the ice caps are melting.
Everyone is in gridlock. The world powers are becoming increasingly hostile to each other. The economy is either in permanent recession or headed for another crash. Millions are jobless and pay is falling fast. No nation can export goods because nobody is buying.
The manifestations are also psychological and spiritual. The #1 killer of teens has on and off been suicide. Antidepressant prescriptions have been skyrocketing. There is a widespread indefinable longing, a suspicion that our lives and careers are simply part of a bureaucratic jumble without consciousness, significance, purpose, heroism, or camaraderie.
At the same time, the defenders of the system are organized and mobilized. Protests against the WTO are regularly repressed with violence, and incidents of police brutality and crackdown on casual public expression have increased. While the Tea Party folk are not truly as numerous as the people demonstrating at Wisconsin, for example, they still get the media attention. They still brazenly talk about "Second Amendment Solutions," which seems really rebellious until you realize that they're just defending the capitalist system. Their close integration with the right-wing militia scene makes their threats not exactly beyond execution.
WE must be the counter-weight, WE must be the solution.

A while back Venger decided he was taking over the Order of the Nine Angles. It was an odd move, "taking over" an organization from the...outside? However it made some sense. If the ONA is mostly based on rumor-mystique anyway, then why the hell not start your own rumor that you are now its master?
It makes even MORE sense. The ONA tragically was in my eyes an attempt to recruit Satanism to Nazism -- basically the guy who started the racist terrorist group in England, Combat 18, got busted and decided he needed new ways to operate. The ONA did nonetheless become a household name among Satanism. They came off as the Blackest of the Black, the genuine organized and dedicated force living beyond good and evil.
Well, we can do that too! And we don't have to do it for fascism! Nor do we have to wage a universal war against every facet of our society, but instead we can be the force to revolutionize the world to the next, more conscious stage.
Let us wage rebellion on magical, political, economic, and physical fronts! Interested? Okay, to see how it would work read this: cultofcthulhu.wall.fm/forum/topic/237
