How to make your own fascist armband.
[Link: www.hurryupharry.org…]
In this short article i will show you how to make a cheap and effective political armband to wear for our movement. As we begin to gain confidence and increase our levels of contact it is apt we are able to establish this core aspect of our identity. This will be a temporary measure until we can produce armbands on an industrial level to sell with mugs, key rings, tie pins, ect. Having personally tested it in public myself it is safe to say they should NEVER be worn in front of anyone who does not fully know you and who you do not fully trust.

I still think the Israelis should employ the Gadarene Transfer Plan: limited-time offer to the “Palestinians” to relocate elsewhere with a quitclaim payment of $X—after which the area is subjected to a stampede by a massive herd of hogs.
