I haven't ever read this before, but so far it is pretty much what I expected. Page 13 is the money quote that everyone knows. I actually disagree with it in part.
and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?
This at best gets you a 1:1 KDR. To really have a chance at survival one would have to go and eliminate them at their residence. Defense does not stop the enemy. The reward for a successful defense is another defense attempt. The reward for a successful attack is never having to attack or defend again.
On page 69 and 70 Solzhenitsyn relates a story about applauding for Stalin, but that story can just as well be applied to the PoX and fags: it is not enough to merely allow their existence, they must be applauded, and who ever applauds the least is destroyed.
And on page 71, if we read between the lines, we learn the origin of the jew soap myth.
Telegrams transmitting instructions of this kind were sent via ordinary channels in a very rudimentary code. In Temryuk the woman telegrapher, in holy innocence, transmitted to the NKVD switchboard the message that 240 boxes of soap were to be shipped to Krasnodar the following day. In the morning she learned about a big wave of arrests and guessed the meaning of the message! She told her girl friend what kind of telegram it was-and was promptly arrested herself.
Some person involved with the creation or use of that code was later reassigned to create propaganda against Germany.
On pages 81 and 82 we see what they will do to occupied areas.
To arrest all such persons would have been, from the economic point of view, irrational, because it would have depopulated such enormous areas. All that was required in order to heighten the general consciousness was to arrest a certain percentage--of those guilty, those halfguilty, those quarter-guilty, and those who had hung out their footcloths to dry on "the same branch as the Germans. After all, even one percent of just one million fills up a dozen full-blooded camps.
They will not arrest everyone, as they cannot, they want to rule people, not ashes. But you will not be one of the "lucky ones" as everyone reading this is their enemy, even the glowie feds.
However there is one way to avoid being arrested, as mentioned on page 85: "They did not touch those who had lived a purely vegetable existence." Of course anyone who has posted here, for any reason, does not qualify for that.
And finally we find out on page 92 what could stop the madness: daring to arrest the Chosen ones. If Stalin had followed the advice of Cato the Elder regarding doctors he might have lived to see his plan though.
In 1927, when submissiveness had not yet softened our brains to such a degree, two Chekists tried to arrest a woman on Serpukhov Square during the day. She grabbed hold of the stanchion of a streetlamp and began to scream, refusing to submit. A crowd gathered. (There had to have been that kind of woman; there had to have been that kind of crowd too! Passers-by didn't all just close their eyes and hurry by!) The quick young men immediately became flustered. They can't work in the public eye. They got
into their car and fled. (Right then and there she should have
gone to a railroad station and left! But she went home to spend the night. And during the night they took her off to the Lubyanka.)
Pg. 15-16
Defense does have benefits but one thing lacking in this example was the drawing of blood. The arrest was called off due to resistance but with none of the fatal kind. I think your viewing those carrying out the arrests as having principles. If there was stiff enough resistance those expecting an easy job would balk at having to put their lives on the line to do their job. If enough people had resisted violently enough, since the vast majority were dead anyway if hauled off the gulags, the security apparatus could have fallen apart due to desertion. It’s all hypothetical speculation though since that never happened.
The ones carrying out the future arrest will have the strongest of principles: Hatred. You are a Nazi, after all you post on Nazi forums like KIA2.win. You are personally responsible for the deaths of 6 million of the Chosen Ones. They will HATE you. Additionally, they will have 100 years of added experience in making arrest of all kinds. The US mission in Afganistan wasn't to deal with some goatfucking terrorist or establish a democracy in a land where that will never work. It was to develop methods to deal with arrest of hostile, and possibly armed individuals.
Edit: I should point out, the woman referenced successfully defended the first time, and thus got another chance to defend herself, where she failed and was taken to a camp.
Those people who are absolutely normie. They hold no political opinion that they are not told to have. They submit to any thing that the state wants. Essentially they are NPCs.
Edit: I should expand on this. NPCs can be chanters of slogans, and that is too politically active, after all they gulaged a quarter of Leningrad for chanting a slogan 20 years earlier. The people he is referring to are the ones that wake up, go to the factory, work their shift without complaint, go home and listen to the state propaganda, and the repeat ad nauseam. They are less than NPCs.
Those are the soulless masses who live their lives according to social convention.
Go to school, play sports, get a degree in whatever, work a meaningless job. Every day do no more than is expected. Sports team won! Celebrate! Did well in work, promotion to meaningless managerial position. Happy!
Never question. Never wonder. Never explore.
It's an older description of the classic NPC. Those who exist yet are not alive. Robots who simply and surely follow all instructions without question.

1 to 1? I don't know if I agree. The barricades worked pretty damn well in the French revolution. Troops had to pull back because the losses just weren't worth the effort of fighting door to door.
Now if you're talking about a wide open battlefield without any cover, then I agree with you, but this stuff was going down in houses and large apartment type buildings. It's extremely difficult to attack a fortified position in close quarters, and short of using rocket launchers or something you're going to have a rough time trying to extract people.
We aren't talking about revolutions, we are talking about the police kicking your door down at 3 am. You'll be lucky if you can even get to your gun before they get you. That is why I disagree with Solzhenitsyn. Action beats reaction. Don't be surprised, surprise them.
And even if you fortify, you won't get more of them than they get of you. Just look at Ruby Ridge: 3 of the Weavers were killed, and only one cop died. Or look at Waco, where only one cop was injured, and that was from friendly fire.
I agree it's not a perfect comparison, but the idea is that once words starts going around town that neighbors are being disappeared in the middle of the night, people start setting up defenses in their homes. Stuff like sleeping with doors barricaded and weapons by their beds.
Will that change everything and lead to the desired outcome for the people? Not on its own but it's an important first step. You have to start somewhere.
