Subversive Measures

Subversive Measures - Refers to certain tactics or methods which are implemented or carried out either overtly or covertly or both so to achieve a political objective or intent. Such measures are no limited explicitly to political application only, but rather they can also be applied in a Social context and can be an important tool or element of Social engineering.
Subversive Measures, can be compared with the overt and covert methods utilised during the former Soviet Union in relation with implementing Censorship, a process which had been used in both political and social capacities and had been contrived by Leon Trotsky ( Preventative Censorship) and was enforced by the Glavlit agency.

disciplinary measures f4rt1nth3p0ck3t

f4rt1nth3p0ck3t, is a disciplinary measure approved by some hermits who live in a cave system in Breakish- Isle of Skye.

It may be enacted, when and only when, a crustacean refuses to follow direct stage instructions.

Punishments may range from a delicate tickling of the underside of the Thorax- to being shipped off to Spain, where they shall become a garnish for a plate of Whelks in a creamy garlic Scaloppine.
Person-Eh. "Have you ever heard of the "disciplinary measures f4rt1nth3p0ck3t?"

John- Yes, of course I have! I just made it up.

Person-Eh "Why did you do that?"

John- " Simply put, it's a poor attempt to make a human I've never met, smile."
