Well, unfortunately it's not as simple as internalising a set of ideals and/or abiding by instructions. Indeed, these are hardly simple tasks either.

However, as a Refused Party Programmer (one who has found his/her/its Refused Party Program), I shall aid you eager young/old/x hopefuls in your journey.

These materials will be essential:

- Some form of music playing device (but preferably a record player).
- "The Shape Of Punk To Come" by Refused. Again, vinyl is preferable, but then again downloading it will increase your revolutionary fervour points.
- Your friends.
- Camera(s).
- A healthy dose of curiosity with a pinch of anger.

I will leave the details to your imaginations.

Ah, but there is a reading list!

"Lessons Of The Spanish Revolution" by Vernon Richards.
"Mutual Aid" by Peter Kropotkin.
"Das Kapital" and "The Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx.
"A People's History Of The United States" by Howard Zinn.


These are merely the core texts. I would encourage the partyer to explore further, particularly historical details of revolution and counter-revolution in Russia.

Also check out the "Free Soviets predicts your future thread". It is imperative to fidning your inner Party Program [not to be confused with your Refused Party Program].

I have anticipated that those who have not found their Refused Party Program will find this communique rather vague. I will answer the most obvious/popular question; what is Refused Party Program?

Refused Party Program is not just a song. Refused Party Program is not just a revolutionary mantra. Refused Party Program lives in the hearts and minds of all free-thinking individuals. When you have found your Refused Party Program, you will sense the chords of the revolution and breathe by the people, for the people.

Refused Party Program is the New Noise, the new art, the new voice.

When you have found Refused Party Program, you will know it.

And finally, my personal proof of God:

1)Lemon meringue is supreme.
2)Therefore cookies make Baby Jeebus cry.
3)God exists.

So you want to be Refused Party Program, eh?

Nah. You're cool, but I still like me better. ;) :cool:

Understandable. May your meringue be lemoney and your milk funktascious.

Aww! That's the nicest thing anyone has said to me all day. :D

I refused my refused party program, and adopted cake and hats as my personal style.

I encourage the frequent use of headgear.

No...no, it isn't.

Myeah, oké, but it IS a running gag tough!

Somehow I don't think that RPP likes it when you gag him and run though.

I feel sorry for would-be hopefuls, as Karl Marx's books are a little dry...

But it's still would be funny. :)

I wouldn't mind it, but somehow it seems like RPP isn't into this whole B&D thing here.

you should get the pre-moistened copy. make sure to keep it sealed when not in use to lock in the moistness.

I would actually recommend washing down the Marx with a sizeable glass of milk. With lemon meringue as an after snack.

This is not a bump.

No, I think the technical name for it is a grave dig :p
