ABSTRACT
The anti-communist propaganda nowadays focuses on the so-called New Style Communism. This term embraces a wide variety of human rights activists, as witnessed in an attack in September 2017 on the office of the Foundation of Legal Aid Institutes in Jakarta. The reason given was the hosting of a seminar on the history of the events of 1965. First police cordoned off the building. The following day a cultural festival was attacked by members of hardline militias. The renewed campaign follows the two seminars organized after the IPT 1965 process. In April 2016 a national symposium was held in which both victims (for the first time) and perpetrators spoke. This was followed by a seminar in June 2016 organized by conservative retired generals. Meetings of victims or of IPT activists are routinely disrupted. In this chapter the various groups that have a stake in the continued campaign of communist (and homophobic) propaganda are examined.
