Get the twatfacemug. November 30th, 2000, and the protests which took place on that day.
This was the biggest and best day of protests at the Seattle WTO summit (aka "Battle of Seattle" and, in media-whorespeak, "Seattle Riots"). There were also protests elsewhere on that day - e.g. at Euston Station in London (the first recorded use of the pigpen tactic against anti-capitalists, as cops tried to pen everyone into the station). Not very well-organised this time. A cop van got torched and this became an iconic image.

Get the N30mug. Government department with the job of making people insecure by getting cops to break into their homes.
A good example of Newspeak.

The far-right bigot in charge of this office, whose name I forget, is the same man who spent years trying to lynch Mumia Abu-Jamal and he's praised the Nazis as well.

Get the Office for Homeland Securitymug. 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!

It actually refers to a now-defunct Kurdish Marxist guerrilla group fighting for independence from Turkey.

Get the PKKmug. 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.

Get the schoolmug. 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?

Get the your country needs youmug. 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.
