"THIS ARMO" is proposed as a means of spreading the culture of "active non-violence" and nuclear disarmament by the production and the publication of mainly video (clips and cartoons). In addition to the function of entertainment THIS ARMO aspires to become with the help of its members:
1) a portal containing materials of various kinds (clips, cartoons, games, drawings, comics ... and so on) that show a creative and simple sensibility of active non-violence.
2) a group of people that, by organizing meetings in schools, universities and associations, may disclose a sensibility humanistic and non-violent.


// A few words about non-violence
Non-violence has been used for many years as a method for social transformation and is opposed to the violent and repressive action of whichever "regime" to exercise its power in an explicit or implicit way. Explicit bye the use of sheer force and weapons, and implicit by the the use of "laws" to repress freedom of cultural expression, religion and association.
In the history we can find many examples of how the world has been changed by non-violent action. People like Martin Luther King, Mahatma Gandhi and Silo with their thoughts and aphorisms still inspire many people, including the editoral staff of
THISARMO.net (^_^).


// What exactly is the active non-violence

The non-violent action fits in an attitude of creativity showing the contradiction and the measure of uncouthness of violence without ranging on the same level. Non-violence expresses the respect for life and a more open view at the future.
With THISARMO.net we want to oppos With THISARMO.net we want to oppose a senseless and growing culture of violence and intolerance, the culture of non-violence. With the right force we set us against violence in all its various forms (economic, political, religious, social, sexual, psychological, cultural).
This can be achieved through important instruments such as the visual arts and communication. Relying on the support of video technology, cartoons, video games, comic books and through the organization of meetings in schools, universities and associations we are sure that we could make a large contribution to the spread of this sensibility.
