LETTERS TO THE EDITORS This issue we are breathlessly printing more letters than ever before. I don't know what to say except I hope you enjoy them as much as we did! SIP TWNS CIS ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Dear Editors, Get with it! Nobody even cares about this charter shit except for some of you old timers who are really into diddling their clits over this intellectual kind of thing. The amount of space in this magazine being spent on this charter nonsense is just stupid. Its embarrassing. Nonmembers reading the last issue must think this is all we spend our time on. More art work, stories, and articles! Less politics! Bored and Pissed Off, Yellow Circle Founding Orgone Committee Dear Bored and Pissed Off: What can we say? Obviously not all of us agree with you wholly, but I do agree personally that there hasn't been enough purely magickal work going on. As far as laying the groundwork for the future of the Committee goes, the Charter is comepletely necessary. I hope this will be clearer when we lay out many issues in the next W&W. Emmanuel Goldstein Dear Members, Editors, and Others, I needed to write to share an intuition with you all. We will reshape the face of modern Occultism in the next century with this Charter and the results of our Newspeak, Dontjustthink, and the Autarchy the same way as the Golden Dawn shaped the face of Occultism in our century. Lets get to work. Mz. Rushmore Liberty Dear Ms. Rushmore Liberty, You are obviously as much as a megalomaniac as I am and that pleases me to no end! Emmanuel Goldstein Founding Committee People: SEX IS PEACE TRUE WILL NOT SLAVERY CONSCIOUSNESS IS STRENGTH Thanks for the advice for our friend who got caught leaving his copies of Book of Shadows in people's houses. The legal parasites were thrown off track, and the scheming bitch who stole her own necklace, blaming it on our Brother, so she could get the insurance money, has suddenly found it in the back of her dresser drawer. Shine on Brothers and Sisters, Severian, Red Circle Neurotech Orgone Committee Dear Severian and the entire Neurotech Orcom: We are relived and happy that our brother has been removed from danger from the false accusations against him. Keep us posted as to how the case against him is going! W.S.H. Committee Brothers and Sisters: I have been stamping our mottoes on all my bills for six weeks now. A few days ago a storekeeper looked at one of these and the look on his face was priceless! I use purple ink, and had a stamper made up that fits Sex is peace and True will not slavery on the top back of a bill, and another that fits Consciousness is strength on the bottom back of a bill. The reactions of some friends who've seen me do this have been crazy. We all worship money even more than I suspected! I am waiting to get handed one back. Ms. Tantra Red Circle Neurotech Orgone Committee Dearest Ms. Tantra: Keep on having fun fun fun! Don't let them rest for a minute. Make them grovel and be glad they're doing it! W.S.H. SEX IS PEACE TRUE WILL NOT SLAVERY CONSCIOUSNESS IS STRENGTH Hail and Well Met Founding Committee Folks! I just wanted to let you all know that our sticker campaign, blanketing my college with SEX IS PEACE TRUE WILL NOT SLAVERY CONSCIOUSNESS IS STRENGTH has worked out real fazz. We started out using a laser printer on florescent stickers, then graduated to silver and gold stickers from a printer. Everyone wants to know who is behind it, and we are not telling. Has anyone tried this on a subway or other public transport? I wanted to share a few thoughts on what it means to me to be a Committee droog. First its great to have finally found a club for people who are fucked-up the same way I am. Second I feel really great taking the daring step in helping a new concept an initiatic club along. We have less baggage because we have no traditions to clog things up. We can make a club that meets our needs. Third I love being a Room 101 Custodian, and have enclosed a photograph of ours that I hope you all enjoy. Fourth I want to send gratitude to all the Founding Committee droogies who were so hospitable when I visited in September! Shine on Brothers and Sisters, Zed the Impaler, Yellow Circle, Neurotech Orgone Committee Dear Zed: Of course we are going to have to make stickers of our own! First, I'm delighted that you're happy with this club. Second we're all happy that you feel as liberated as we do by breaking with tradition as much as we actually have.. Third, I'm overjoyed that you are having as much fun being a Room 101 Custodian as I am. Fourth, it was a real pleasure having you with us in September and thanks for all the fish! W.S.H. Dear Communications Subcommittee, I am turned on by the idea of a polyfidelity very much. Monogamy has never been for me but with AIDS casual sex is going to kill off the people who are not being careful. Safe sex is OK but with all the hassles and problems in any sexual relationship, I just hate to add still another problem right up front. Besides, what kind of evolutionaries are we if we aren't capable of living our sexual lives in any way other than Ward and June Cleaver? It has always seemed to me that monogamy is for one thing only: security. This is fine unless a person has other priorities than security in mind for how they are going to live their life. Another thing about monogamy is that as a bisexual I find the idea ludircus to say the least. Many monosexuals have voiced negativity to me about bisexuality because they belive that bisexuals can't be monogamous. Well fuck them. Their little minds can't see beyond their assumption that monogamy is the only moral sexual plan for living your life. Finally, I don't like the idea that my children will be brought up in a nuclear family, but prefer the idea that my children could be brought up in an extended family such as a polyfidelity could be. For those of you who don't know what a polyfidelity is, my definition is an arangement where the adults involved agree to have free sexual relationships with each other, but with noone else outside their circle. One concept being discussed by bisexual theorists is that of the quadrogamy, a polyfidelity between two men and two women. I agree with William Hunter whose ideal for the Founding Committee is a polyfidelity, but I also feel that he needs to remain aware that this is not by any means the ideal of all the Founding Committee members. There are so many questions to be answered in the creation of a polyfidelity. How would the legal structure be? Corporation? Limited Partnership? What would the legal status of the children be? What provisions for a split up of assets if there's a "divorce" of a polyfidelity? How would decisions be made? I've heard good things about the concensus process, and offhand would favor that, since a polyfidelity would be smaller than an intentional community. Then there are the shades of polyfidelities such as having primary relationships as against having no primary relationships. I would like to finally close with a bit of information about the concept for all Orcom members who are interested in this concept The Polyfidelity Education Project is a non-profit ecucational corporation that publishes learning materials and information about polyfidelity. Their quarterly newsletter, Peptalk is available for $9 a year. They also publish a polyfidelity primer (1989, 71 pages) is available for $9.50 I would really like to hear from other Ocom people about their feelings and plans in this College Girl Red Circle Founding Orcom Dear College Girl: Thanks for the input! I mean it. I hope to hear more from you in our Summer Solstace 1991 issue which is the New Sexual Paradigms issue! W.S.H. SEX IS PEACE TRUE WILL NOT SLAVERY CONSCIOUSNESS IS STRENGTH
