   "To wit: effective communication is only possible be- 
tween equals; one brain is hardly sufficient to govern one 
life, much less thousands or millions of lives; all rewards 
and punishments teach is how to reward and punish...." 
           -- Kerry Wendell Thornley, "Radical Sociology" 
                                                THE SPARK 
   Above is an explication of the SNAFU Principle and its 
Corolaries. No statist understands these truths, which ex- 
plain why "bureaucracy" is synonymouswith red tape, why to 
call someone a "bureacrat" is to call them incompetent and 
why there never has been, is not now and never will be any 
such thing as an efficient bureaucracy. 
   Whenever a government tries to streamline its bureau- 
cracies -- by selecting only bureaucrats who are ideological- 
ly loyal and punishing gross incompetence (such as signing 
important papers without first reading them) -- it sooner or 
later begins to realize that matters are not improving and 
may, because of the stress of the reform drive, even be get- 
ting worse. 
   When that happens, they decide that someone is sabotaging 
them.  When it happened to the Russian Stalinists, they de- 
cided the Trotskyists were to blame -- hence there were pur- 
ges. When it happend to the German nationalists, they de- 
cided the Jews were to blame -- hence there was Hitler. When 
it happend to the American patriots, they decided the Com- 
munists were to blame -- hence there was and is McCarthyism. 
When it happened to the October League/Revolutionary Commun- 
ist Party, they decided gay people were to blame -- hence 
Bob Avakian promises that after the revolution "education 
will be conducted throughout society on the ideology behind 
homosexuality and its material roots in exploiting society, 
and struggle will be waged to eliminate it and reform homo- 
sexuals." 
   Expect to hear about The Protocols of the Elders of Fire 
Island any day. 
                                     "What happened then, it seems, is 
                                     that the witch craze produced a 
                                     hysteria that created precisely 
                                     what it was trying to destroy."
