Are anarchists more ‘promiscuous’ than coppers? Strangely old fashioned word/concept ‘promiscuity’. Just means people enjoying sex outside mariage but has antiquaited condemnatory moralistic overtones – never used in a positive way.A word ripe for reclaiming. The Guardian reports a copper saying today ‘You have to be promiscuous in that scene or you’d stand out’ . Well I don’t know that anarchists are any more ‘promiscuous’ than coppers or plumbers or anyone out in the Bigg Market on a Saturday night or on the razzle anywhere. But the cops think we are…………must annoy them…….perhaps a banner on the next march saying ‘WE’RE MORE PROMISCUOUS THAN YOU ARE’. The telling difference is that for anarchists and most people promiscuity is something to be enjoyed for the coppers it’s another ‘weapon’ in their armoury like kettling to be employed against subversives.And it’s an officially sanctioned ‘tactic’ to gain information. Do they have ‘Hate Fuck’ training at Hendon? Not a lotta loving there is there. Send for Mr. Freud and Mr.Reich at once………..this may explain a lot.
