Concentration camp for children. Set up to teach people to become docile and obedient subjects of capitalism and the state. This is achieved through mind-numbing, attacks on individual identity, and various degrees of disguised terror, usually (but not always) concealed by a double-bind.
Often combined with indoctrination into dominant ideas and training in skills useful to bosses.

Not a form of torture, only a mild form of abuse, according to the US military. Considered a way of "softening up" prisoners of war for interrogation.
Rush Limbaugh describes it as "letting off steam" and says soldiers have a right to do it.

Republican twats want to ban gay sex but think forced rape with broomsticks is OK as long as the victims are Iraqis. Fuck these Nazis.

Why should I give a fuck? The bosses run the country anyway.
It really means "your government needs you" (to do its dirty work for it, usually by killing foreigners). It's because government can't survive without mass obedience that we should tell it to fuck off whenever it "needs" us. Down with the government!

When I need my "country", it's never there for me, so why should it expect me to be there for it in return?

Did you know that, by posting this definition on urbandictionary.com, I am breaking Britain's absurd anti-terrorism laws by creating a document which bears the name of a terrorist group? Also that you the reader, and the owners of the website, are also breaking it?
What a load of crap, eh? Let's smash the state!

Abbreviation for the June 18th 1999 Carnival Against Capitalism, an event held simultaneously in over 80 countries.
London J18: protesters converged on the City of London and shut it down. McDonald's and some other places got a makeover Bakunin style, and other companies were forced to shut down. The cops turned up and started attacking people but were driven back repeatedly. The most successful anti-capitalist protest in Britain to date.
Nigeria J18 - probably the only one bigger than Britain. Workers invaded and tore down the offices of Shell in Nigeria, because shell are trashing the Niger Delta.
Eugene J18 - the biggest and most militant of the US events, featuring a street party which cops attacked, leading to some of the fiercest clashes anywhere. Persecution is also worst in America. One protester was victimised under the Three Strikes law and is still in jail.
Cologne J18 - pre-Seattle, and really the first of the big anti-summit protests - and the reason for all the rest. Protesters besieged the summit in Cologne and tried to get past security cordons.
Pakistan J18 - anti-nuke protesters got into a nuclear base and got arrested and told they would be charged with treason (but they weren't).

Not to be confused with C18 - although sections of the British press somehow managed this.
This was the first of a number of acronyms used for anti-capitalist protests, e.g. N20, S11, etc.
