| Message | Oh great. The Communist Party (LDU) and the UPeePee are now making our nation a paradise of gay people holding naked pride marches in the military, where everyone gets drugs and kids watch adult television, where the government owns every single industry that Karl Marx can think of, where any legitimate or illegitimate nation can build an 'embassy' on our soil, and where a child can cross the border and call himself a 'citizen'. It's revolting. |

| Message | I find your lack of decorum disturbingly inappropriate, nevertheless, I must reply: I think you have trouble seeing what opinion matters other than your own. You just recognize that I believe in a larger public sector. I don't trust corporations, in this game and in real life. I don't trust in a nationalistic country that doesn't grant all people the rights they are entitled to. What is the problem with gays in the military? It's not like they aren't people! It's not like their passion to serve our country is any less than a heterosexual! And in general, what is the problem with protecting the people? You are supposed to serve your people yet you don't! You are against them! You approve of the domination of corrupt and twisted corporations! You approve of people not being granted the right to live within a border! You approve businessmen owning the rights to manufacture our weaponry to be used by and for our government! You must understand: the UPP and I do not agree with you, and you definitely do not approve of us. And that is clear. Why is there a reason to go on about it? Opinions are opinions, and whatever they are, they are valid! |
