| Message | Which has nothing to do with conservatism, even if it were true - and ignores the fact that there is nothing implicit in conservatism about removal of pesonal rights to self-government... quite the opposite, in fact. As we long suspected, the C(L)P have trouble differentiating between 'conservatism' and 'fascism'. |

| Message | Axis Mundi Revolution! hasn't been an operational party in Likatonia for quite a few years.... the CP seem to be living in the past. There is nothing 'subjective' about slavery. Nor, unfortunately for the CP spindoctors, is there anything 'conservative' |
