Details

Status[?]: defeated

Voting deadline: December 2513
Description[?]:
| Brothers and sisters, it is time that we realize that the only way to shield our children from the tyranny of secularism is to control the media ourselves. With all media being state owned, the parties of Beiteynu, the religious majority can run all television programs, ending the secular hate messages. Furthermore by banning all international media we can end the degenerate influences of evil outsiders who mean to destroy peace and harmony withing the glorious Jewish Homeland of Beiteynu. Finally we submit to you a ban on video games, which will allow our children to be free from the bondage and corruption of mind numbing idiocracy, and allow them to spend greater amounts of time on the study of the Bible and Torah and other important things. Hail Beiteynu, and brothers, may you vote wisely for the sake of our future generations. |

| Message | What corporations does Spider Pig loose control over? If the media is run by the state, they still have control over it the same as any other time, however, they cannot profit off of the masses and oppress the majority. I suppose God commanded Spider Pig to take advantage of the people instead of help them. Silly fools, let your greed take you to hell but do not take this nation with you. |
