    Runner,

    Thanks for the compliment. I think I am a decent writer. I’ve had a bit of training writing but I’m no expert. I’m still an undergrad. Still learning A LOT.

    I’m not sure what you mean exactly by press releases about the mantra or white genocide. I’ve seen mention of it and I saw something that was sent to RT but I would need more information on what exactly we’re trying to do with it and how it should be done. I have no experience with press releases. I would be open to trying my hand at it though. That’s the only way you learn anything after all.

    Finals are over for me now, so I will hopefully have more time when I’m not at work. I will get to editing FTWR 1 more soon.

    As I am fairly new here, I would appreciate any input from what I just put together from experienced BUGSters. For example, on answer b. to #4 I added “Why do you think that is? Could it be because Anti-Racist is a code word for Anti-White?” to the end. Does this work or is phrasing that repeater a no-no for some reason?

    In context:

    4)”So, what do YOU propose to DO about White genocide?”
    a. A full public discussion about white genocide is our most important demand, should we not be allowed to discuss the Genocide of our own race?
    b. There will still be Asians in Asia, because Asia is for the Asians. There will still be Africans in Africa, because Africa is for the Africans.
    But if I dare imply that White countries should be granted THE SAME RIGHTS that ALL the other countries have, then I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews. Why do you think that is? Could it be because Anti-Racist is a code word for Anti-White?

    P.S.

    In the list I posted above I tried to list answers in descending order f what I thought was the best. So responses with Questions at the end should be listed first, those that don’t or I think would be less effective last.

    beefcake,

    I understand, and it was a good idea to include that in there. I just thought you spent too much time emphasizing it.

    I look forward to listening to the other episodes. Keep up the great work!

    The edited version you linked on youtube is superb and to the point. Thank you.

    I agree with your cutting out the dysgenics dialogue, runner. That was a good call IMO. I’ve only listened to the first 15 minutes of episode 1. So far, cutting that part was going to be my first suggestion if the purpose is boiling things down to the basics and getting people ready for the swarm. If that’s the purpose, there is no need to go off into tangents about how we came to be pro-White.

    My second suggestion for Beefcake would be to ease-up on the self-deprecation. A little bit makes people more open to suggestion, too much makes you look bad.

    There’s nothing wrong with taking a little break here and there with some light, non-need-to-know info. That’s actually a good idea. But like before, too much is counter-productive.

    Beefcake’s got a good radio voice, no doubt, but I think he would do well to focus his podcasts more.

    And just to be clear: I think Beefcake’s Bootcamp was a great idea and I think he’s perfect for the job.

    I actually started reading FTWR 1 today because I am considering sending it to someone who doesn’t have access to the podcasts but is very interested in learning more from what I’ve told him.

    I really shouldn’t even be touching this because I have work and studying to do for finals coming up this week, but I have a tendency to get distracted with this kind of thing. Anyway, after actually reading a portion of it for content (seeing what, if at all, I would leave out in what I will send my friend), I caught quite a few errors. I also noticed for myself just how repetitive Horus can be and how certain things he says just don’t sound good or make sense in text.

    If I’ve learned anything from all the writing I’ve done in school, it’s that editing, editing, editing, and more editing is what makes any piece of text good. It’s just like the mantra or using talking points: you can have the greatest idea or most profound/obvious truth in the world, but if you don’t articulate it the right way, people won’t listen to you.

    Now, I’m a pretty conservative guy when it comes to translating or transcribing what someone else says. I don’t want to put words in people’s mouths. That being said, my suggestion would be to not worry about what Horus says word for word and really just focus on the message he’s trying to get across. Otherwise people are going to be A) bored, and B) frustrated reading it because it sounds so awkward in text. We want people to be drawn in–to not be able to stop reading–not to be thinking how strange something sounds, how hard it is to follow, or how he just repeated the same sentence about five times.

    I started editing FTWR 1. You all don’t have to use it, but if you want, I will send it to someone when I am done with it (hopefully sometime soon after finals). If not, that’s fine, I will do it anyways for myself. I am actually planning on making versions that take out anything that could be perceived as anti-Christian as well. I’d rather have someone who’s a Christian first and a White person second repeating the Mantra than the same individual not repeating it. First, though, I am just going to edit what Horus actually says.

    A few changes I’ve made so far are:
    -italicizing foreign words and terms
    -italicizing and/or making bold words/phrases that are emphasized
    -correcting spelling, grammar, and punctuation
    -using more effective verbs
    -breaking paragraphs up even more

    I also think I will delete certain sentences that don’t add anything of substance. I realize repetition is important, and I will maintain a good amount in the version I edit but some things are too repetitive and only distract from the message.

    One example of a change I’ve made is that I’ve given the appropriate accent mark and italicized vis-à-vis (viz-sa-vee).

    Another thing I did was give a better English transcription of how the Russian phrase for “Active Measures” is pronounced (Amara Kanacha changed to Amara Prenacha). If someone has a better transcription, let me know. I was unable to find anything in our alphabet (I included the Russian word using the cryllic alphabet once). I also think that saying “Activity Amara Prenacha” is basically saying “Activity Active Measures,” but am not sure. If I am right, “Activity” should be deleted.

    Mostly, though, I just edited sentences for better grammar, fixing plural/singular issues, etc. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve found grammatical errors in text I’ve edited 5+ times already. It’s just so easy to miss, especially when you know the content well.

    I also noticed from listening to the podcast and looking at the text just how much editing work has already been done. You guys took it a long way and made some great decisions on what to cut and how to reword sentences. Again, I tend to be conservative and analyze things too much. I don’t know how long I would spend on each little detail, but I know it would have been too much, so I can really appreciate the editing work that’s been done. It sure saved me quite a bit of headaches and indecision!

    I make a lot of the same mistakes I assume Horus would make if he wrote. I tend to write like I speak. It’s taken me a long time to start fixing that and I STILL do it by default and am still learning how to correct it. So I am very familiar with a lot of the issues we come into contact with in the FTWR transcriptions.

    I look forward to working with you all more this summer. I welcome any corrections, criticisms or disagreements (this is how we learn). This isn’t about ego, it’s about the message. But you all probably know that better than I do.

    This is great WW! Thanks! If I continue to learn Spanish on my own like I should, this will really come in handy.

    Epiphany,

    I don’t know. I’ve heard a number of women at the university express that the main reason they support intervention in Middle Eastern countries is to liberate the women.

    The politico-cultural establishment won’t let feminism trump anti-White genocide but that doesn’t mean there aren’t women for whom that is true.

    Steadiness,

    Unless I am missing something, I think Singapore is a bad example to use because it is one of the only true multiracial states. And it is actually “working” to an extent, for various reasons that take to long to explain to Average Joe’s (or anyone in a face-paced, hard hitting soundbite kind of argument).

    I would love good answers to these questions. I’m sure I could think of some on the spot but it would be much better to have well thought out responses.

    I am a freshman in my first semester at BUGS so be patient with anything dumb in my posts.

    I have seen some of the videos of anti-Whites trying to logically prove “anti-racist is a code word for anti-White” doesn’t make any sense. Both that argument and #7 above are similar and I think I have a good retort, though I would like anyone’s feedback.

    7) ”Well if anti-racist is a codeword for anti-White, then YOU are saying that racist = White? That is patently FALSE because ALL races are capable of committing Racism. I am an anti-Racist!”

    –You are missing a very simple point, I said anti-racist is a CODEword for anti-White.” A codeword is a CODE. By its very nature it is DECEPTIVE. Anti-racist doesn’t mean you are against racism for any race, except for a small minority of deluded Whites. It means you are anti-White. WELL over 95% of the time people around the world charged with/labeled “racist” are White. If every race on the planet can be racist, how come it’s only White people being called “racist”? No one’s flooding Africa with non-Blacks, encouraging them to “assimilate” themselves out of existence and labeling any who resist “evil racists.” They are doing this in White countries and ONLY White countries. It’s geNOcide. Those supporting the genocide against my race call themselves “anti-racists,” THAT’S why anti-racism is a codeword for anti-White.

    It could probably be shortened and written a bit better but that’s something I’ve thought of. Hell, it’s probably already been written better and shorter and I just haven’t seen it yet. Just thought I’d throw my two cents in.

    Also, I left out

    The “racism” charge being applied around the world against Whites and ONLY Whites, is insane/particularly ridiculous because we’re the least ethnocentric people on the planet.

    Because it is digressing from mantra thinking, a side note, and more appropriate for an argument than making a point.

    Thanks, Frank! I use Mac too and will download and test that software after finals. I imagine that program makes even editing the computer generated text easier to fix.

    I will try to do a second pass on #3 after finals are done, blackbyte. I will need to make sure not to reuse the same graphics too often by checking the first two.

    Is there a webpage with all of the images associated with FTWR/BUGS? I know we will be using a lot of outside images but knowing where those are could be helpful too.

    BUGS Buddy 2.0 looks AWESOME! Thanks for that Gar5! ….I don’t suppose it works for Mac though. I could pop on my PC I rarely use it because of how slow & old it is.

    Lenux Lewis, those webpage mantra tools are really awesome too! I actually saw some mantras I don’t think I’ve seen before in the mini-mantras files I and II I have (I honestly haven’t gone through EVERYTHING yet though either.

    Thanks for the heads up on getting banned for spam too…I’ll have to figure out how to use this TOR/proxy software and router tricks.

    In regards to FTWR topic lists: Can’t we just ask people who are planning on listening to one they haven’t heard before or re-listening to one to just write down any topics they noticed he covered?

    Someone could start a thread and after 2-3 people have listened to each and given their lists, they could be consolidated into a single list. I know this would be very helpful to listeners (I remember wondering why there weren’t a more in-depth descriptions myself).

    I’ll start doing that from now on (I’ve listened to 1-20 so far) unless someone tells me otherwise. I’ll tell all of the people I’m suggesting listen to it to do the same.

    Also, just wanted to put it out there that I am using something mentioned in FTWR #3 (specifically concerning Aryan girl Rabbits 😉 to interpret a piece of literature. So I would be VERY grateful for anyone working on the text of #3 (esp. that area). Also, I would be extremely grateful if anyone had any sources/resources for the stuff Horus was talking about there. I asked him but he’s busy writing the script for video #2.

    Here’s a question I’m sure has been asked but let me go for it anyway:
    Has anyone tried breaking down FTWR into SHORT little pieces by (important) topic? That’s one thing I was planing on doing. Then more experienced rabbits could use them to to hone their skills where and as needed. For example: I believe 17 contains demoralizing tactics for A) WWII generation B) SHW(a) babies, and C) “Chads in Iowa” (i.e. baby-boomer’s kids). Each of those could be its own mp3.

    If someone hasn’t already done that, I would be more than willing to do so. My only issue would be how to get them to people. I could upload them to youtube, make them semi-private (where you’d need a link), and post it on here. …but it would be nice if someone else could put them up on a site as mp3s. If so, I could send people the mp3s via skype or something else. A lot of times audio files are too big to send over email.

    I won’t be able to do any work on this until after the semester is over though. It’s cram time and I’ve got ungodly amounts of work to do. In roughly 3 weeks I should just be working and will have time to work on this.

    (I’m going to post this as another thread too, hope no one minds).

    Great idea. I had the same thoughts, even to the degree of different levels, one being more of a manual (what I’m personally most interested in), and another for “fantasy rabbits.”

    I downloaded the first three files available on your website, blackbyte.

    I will be able to help with this project after this semester ends (~3 weeks). I do a lot of writing in school so I’m not bad at editing. I work slowly though, and first runs would almost certainly take me much longer than others.

    I’m interested in the speech recognition software but I don’t think NaturallySpeaking works for Mac, which is what I use. I’ll look into that more.

    in reply to: Crazy Ideas For Spreading The Mantra #21479
    GregP
    Participant

    I’m new to BUGS, so forgive me if I’m asking stupid questions. I started listening to FTWR less than a month ago. Here are some ideas I would like to get others opinions on. Originally it was an email to Horus, who rightfully pointed me here.

    1. In your opinion, do you think it is worthwhile to print off the mantra on pieces of paper and put it places? I get the feeling it is much more effective being SPOKEN than read but that the later is, nonetheless, still useful. If it is worthwhile, where do you think would be a good place to put them? I considered putting slips of paper with the mantra in library books concerning race etc. at a local university, but then I thought better of it: my generation and younger rarely pick up library books. So I would probably be wasting it on SHW(a) babies & PCOs working for these places. And the PCOs would probably send out some stupid email to all the faculty and students talking about the “hate” and warning everyone to look out for such info. I’ve seen similar things happen in the past. I’ve come to realize that printing the mantra out is probably more trouble than it’s worth, based purely on the fact that I’ve seen no mention of it on your website, no flyers, etc. But, I figured it was worth asking about just in case.

    2. Have you/Bob thought of paying proven, experienced, people to post the mantra? You almost certainly have, but again, I figured it was worth asking. Here is how I thought it might work: people who have a few (or a few hundred+) dollars to spend could donate (via paypal, PO box, however) some money…even to a 3rd party running this. Then, 3rd party sets up email accounts, and accounts on youtube and wherever else a lot of the people we want to target frequent. Then the people deemed experienced and trustworthy enough could be paid for a few hours of posting the mantra. The person running this, (maybe mostly) with the help of volunteers, could do quick checks on the links the people being paid have posted to show they are doing their job. It just seems to me that you would get a lot more people willing to donate money than you would to donate their time doing the repetitive but necessary job of smashing the anti-Whites with the mantra. Despite seeing some problems with the model proposed above (like who to use, how effective/productive would it be), I still think it may be worthwhile to considering if you already haven’t.

    3. Have you and/or anyone else involved with BUGS considered doing a staged anti-White smashing video for youtube? One that could possibly go viral? By this I mean having one person pretend to be an anti-White, and another a pro-White argue in some semi-public place, like a starbucks or something. A third person who pretends to know neither of them overhears an “argument” and records it on his/her iPhone or something. The two people on camera would need to be good enough actors to pull it off, make it look natural….but I think it could be done. Furthermore, all it would take is 3 people, two younger who are halfway decent actors, some practice, and an Iphone/Android (or whatever). Then, it could be used as an example of how it works in real life. People could hear and SEE how it works. It could show other Whites how to defend themselves (by verbal attacks), get the moral high ground when confronted with anti-Whites, and encourage others to emulate it. It could even encourage 2-people groups to go out SEEKING such opportunities that would be “real” and thus avoid the possibility of being seen as fake. Of course, that can be done without the first, but I think it would be very beneficial. …then they could even be critiqued by Bob or you, giving people pointers, training them to be better. I want to do this myself but don’t have the team at the moment nor can I put my face in such a video for the time being.
