| Message | Your idea of capitalism is Fascism. Pure fascism. |
| Date | 21:02:48, May 17, 2010 CET | From | Libertarian Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Workers Act |

| Date | 21:11:16, May 17, 2010 CET | From | Narik Nationalestik Parti | To | Debating the Workers Act |
| Message | CPD, you should stop calling every non-leftist a fascist. Not every not-communist is a fascist you know. |
| Date | 22:07:28, May 17, 2010 CET | From | Buidheann Saorsa | To | Debating the Workers Act |
| Message | The CPD is hopelessly misguided in his outlook on the world. Business owners are free to fire whoever they damn well please. |
| Date | 12:12:50, May 18, 2010 CET | From | Communist Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Workers Act |
| Message | In this nation, they are: not giving workers full prtection while striking is basically fascism. And no they aren't. I know a great way to stop business owners firing workers who are looking for better conditions: nationalise everything. |
| Date | 21:04:32, May 19, 2010 CET | From | Libertarian Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Workers Act |
| Message | If a work is looking for better conditions, then he should quit his damn job and find a new one. Nobody is forcing him to work for HIS EMPLOYERS BUSINESS; on the contrary, his employer is trading money for his employee's labor. |

However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
