| Message | We have been too quiet. About time we introduced something... |
| Date | 09:16:09, December 07, 2005 CET | From |  Theofascist Party | To | Debating the AU 2151 |
| Message | Clearly the Altruists favour a state of anarchy, in which the good people of Kirlawa fall prey to bad influences, and where blatant immorality wreaks havoc and mayhem on the people's souls. We cannot allow this. |

| Message | Art 4 and Art 7 NO, all the rest YES |

| Message | No, this isn't a fight against fascism but common sense. If you want to fight fascism you fight the Theofascists policies of extreme state control, excessively arming the police and eradicating civil liberties, you don't lead the country down the road to anarchism. |

| Message | "common sense"? That’s very subjective. Fascism, just like every other political ideology, can be moderated. But as with any moderation many common goals and core principles remain. In this case state control and or regulation of civil liberties. This is not anarchy, but rather all that is needed in the form of a government (including environmental and anti-trust laws). Proposed: The government requires all businesses to be run by Democratic Worker's Councils. |

| Message | YES to 1, 2, 3, and 6 NO to 4, 5, and 7 |
