I cant entirely agree with that. At the same time, I can't really see how they might be beaten in the broader world. I think that it depends on how
you view the fight. If the fight takes place on the global stage, then we're scunnered, they've got it all wrapped up, and we better just bite the
bullet and get on with life.
But that is not the only battleground. There is also the space of the self. It goes without saying that large amounts of the NWOs attacks are on the
integrity of the self, are attempts at producing conformist consumers. These are attempts by the NWO to win the battle on the field of subjectivity.
And it is here that the battle might be most truly won. Their systems of manipulation are not inescapable. It remains possible to assert the
individual identity as a free space, to identify your body and mind as a 'temporary autnomous zone' in opposition to their control over the greater
volume through which you move.
And it is from this bastion of autonomy that it is possible to take the battle to the NWO. Through your interaction with other fragmented yet unitary
entities (folk like you and me) it is possible to aid them in their goal of autonomy, of freedom from the NWOs incursions into the space of their
subjectivity. You cannot fight the battle for them, but you can be their supply lines, their ally, their reinforcements. When they are down, and the
battle seems futile, you can give them the support they need to keep on going. These small interpersonal acts are sufficient, so that we can at least
say that we are who WE are, and not who they have programmed us to be.
The autonomous zones of our selves are also the space for a more radical attack, though it is still one which relies on the interpersonal. Through
acts of poetic terrorism and ontological anarchy, it is possible to connect with others on a broader scope, to recreate public space in such a way
that it might shake those who encounter it out of their preconceptions. All we can hope is that through this tenuous connection, we are able to break
people out of their conformity, out of the patterns they have been trapped by, but this is enough. It creates the potential that they too will claim
their autonomy, rather than act on remote control. This last battle is not one which we can win, but it might enable others to win the battle for
themselves, which must be enough.
