If you are in an organization that claims to adhere to the proletarian movement how many of the elements in the title does your organization adhere to? Do you go out with shitty cardboard signs and hippie beanie clothes like losers? Are participants in your org willing to adopt a uniformed look or do they reject uniformity in favor of individual choices? Can you all form a line adhering to height? Can you march in unison? Can you sing in unison? Can you handle the logistics to obtain uniforms? Can you design banners, uniforms, flags and have them produced? Do you print reading material? Do you know how to behave when handing out printed material? Do you know how to behave in front of agitators? Do you know how to give interviews? Do you know how to recruit? And many other questions.
It appears that most organizations, especially leftoid orgs are completely disorganized and glorify piglike behavior expecting praise and new recruits without putting in the necessary effort to hold a structured organization.
They often blame the lack of finances, the lack of members and dismiss any notion of uniformity. And even when finances are not a problem, they may refuse out of individualism "I don't like wearing suits" and such other excuses which are more common within the declassed and more liberal structures. Of course there are outliers, there are declassed organizations with suits. What about yours though? Do you even have the will to implement these crucial elements in your organization or would you rather dismiss and criticize them as being stuck up?
I remind that the very same institutions and bourgeoisie NGOs that dominate the social order already see the necessity in these elements as far as to emphasize their importance in managerial courses, logically if you want to compete with them for attention from the broader "public" you need to 1UP them. If you don't like it then have fun playing play-pretend with your gay ass libtarded idpol friends and running a small business on a legalized squat or some shit. But if you agree on the necessity of these things, what have you done to try to implement them OR how have you managed to implement them in your org?
This is assuming you're not in an insurrectionary organization / party and care about public appearances.
>>2261233Who would win? The local DSA chapter or the French Foreign Legion? Obviously the mouth breathing landwhale liberal neurotic idpol faggots would get their entrails disemboweled. So why make your org look like the DSA? Be like the French Foreign Legion.
Fascists have their own "social clubs" (gyms), does your org have a gym? Or at the very least do you have a schedule and routine for your org to train?
>>2261282You don't need an explicitly military uniform, a uniformed look can range from suits, vests, to anything that is distinguishable for your organization in attendance to public appearances.
This is a must-have for preparation and PR if the organization wishes to present itself as "respectable".
that's a lot of weird terms to describe discipline, that's the real problem and having discipline isn't militaristic.

It apparently comes out of older-style Prussian methods and also British methods (specifically the Royal Marines) who the U.S. Marines wanting to emulate in the 1800s. BTW there's an essay by Engels called "The Armies of Europe" that talked about different armies in the 1850s (fascinating reading BTW) and he talked about British drill being notoriously harsh then, they were still practicing flogging while the Prussians had discarded it, but this practice which was aimed at creating discipline wrecked morale and contributed to the relatively high number of desertions of British troops during the Crimean War.
>There is one institution in the British army which is perfectly sufficient to characterize the class from which the British soldier is recruited. It is the punishment of flogging. Corporal punishment does not exist in the French, the Prussian, and several of the minor armies. Even in Austria, where the greater part of the recruits consist of semi-barbarians, there is an evident desire to do away with it, thus the punishment of running the gauntlet has recently been struck out from the Austrian military code. In England, on the contrary, the cat-o'-nine-tails is maintained in its full efficiency—an instrument of torture fully equal to the Russian knout in its most palmy time. Strange to say, whenever a reform of the military code has been mooted in Parliament, the old martinets have stuck up for the cat, and nobody more zealously than old Wellington himself. To them, an unflogged soldier was a monstrously misplaced being. Bravery, discipline, and invincibility, in their eyes, were the exclusive qualities of men bearing the scars of at least fifty lashes on their backs.
>The cat-o'-nine-tails, it must not be forgotten, is not only an instrument calculated to inflict pain; it leaves indelible scars, it marks a man for life, it brands him. Now, even in the British army, such corporal punishment, such branding, really amounts to an everlasting disgrace. The flogged man loses caste with his fellow soldiers. But, according to the British military code, punishment, before the enemy, consists almost exclusively in flogging; and thus, the very punishment which is said, by its advocates, to be the only means of keeping up discipline in cases of great urgency, is the means of ruining discipline by destroying the morale and the point d'honneur of the soldier.
>This explains two very curious facts: first, the great number of English deserters before Sebastopol. In winter, when the British soldiers had to make superhuman exertions to guard the trenches, those who could not keep awake for forty-eight or sixty hours together, were flogged! The idea of flogging such heroes as the British soldiers had proved themselves in the trenches before Sebastopol, and in winning the day of Inkermann in spite of their generals! But the articles of war left no choice. The best men in the army, when overpowered by fatigue, got flogged, and, dishonored as they were, they deserted to the Russians. Surely there can be no more powerful condemnation of the flogging system than this. In no former war have troops of any nation deserted in numbers to the Russians; they knew that they would be treated worse than at home. It was reserved to the British army to furnish the first strong contingent of such deserters, and, according to the testimony of the English themselves, it was flogging that made the men desert. The other fact is, the signal failure of the attempt to raise a foreign legion under the British military code. The Continentals are rather particular about their backs. The prospect of getting flogged has overcome the temptation of the high bounty, and good pay. Up to the end of June, not more than one thousand men had enlisted, where fifteen thousand were wanted; and this much is certain, if the authorities attempt to introduce flogging even among these one thousand reprobates, they will have to encounter a storm which will force them either to give way, or to dissolve the foreign legion at once.https://marxengels.public-archive.net/en/ME0936en.html >>2261208besides the fact that individual signs are cringe, signs should always be big and made by the organization, not the individual members
besides that, larping is a waste of resources, specially uniforms and such because you are not actually rising up
