| Message | Well, if you're going for this, I highly recommend that you remove 'socialist' from your name, otherwise, I'll be walking around with a banner proclaiming that ISM is hypocritical. |
| Date | 12:21:01, January 18, 2006 CET | From | Likaton Fascist Front | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Kinda like 'National' socialist ? |
| Date | 12:44:44, January 18, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Ja, ToTAL got it spot on. I think our economic policies justifies the use of the term socialist, whereas as Imperial, with its authoritarian right overtones, justifies our social conservatism and allegiance to the old monarchy. It is certainly true that socialism is more of a restrictive political ideal than it is progressive. So no hypocrisy whatsoever, we are proud of the Socialist part of our name, and have done a lot to advance the cause of socialism in this nation. |
| Date | 14:39:33, January 18, 2006 CET | From | AM Radical Libertarian Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | RLP opposes every one of these points. People have the right and responsibility to make their own decisions, that is what distinguishes human kind from the animals. |
| Date | 17:48:58, January 18, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Rubbish, certain rights must be curtailed, otherwise it becomes the law of the jungle, which incidentally means that the arnarchy you are suggesting is closer to the animals, the laws we are sugesting makes us humans. |
| Date | 18:10:34, January 18, 2006 CET | From | AM Radical Libertarian Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Our humanity is defined by our being willing to make decisions for ourselves, and take responsibility for those decisions. Letting the government decide critical personal issues is the Law of the Pack; it may work well for wolves but not for men. |
| Date | 18:20:38, January 18, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Of course it works well for men, discipline is a good thing, although I like the Wolf motifs that seem to be going around |
| Date | 01:01:09, January 19, 2006 CET | From | Likaton Fascist Front | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | The Lamb that is TOTAL shall lay with the Wolf that is ISM on this one. |
| Date | 05:06:27, January 20, 2006 CET | From | Commonwealth Workers Army | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | The AAS is somewhat shocked to see such support for this bill... it is only a short step from compulsary religion, and 'allowed' sexualities, to child-sacrifice, cavorting druids and dung for dinner. The AAS must oppose this step into barbarism. As unlikely as it seems, especially in the wake of the unfortunate death of Jacto Aleas, at the hands of Termani murderers... the Tears of Termani sect is beginning to look like the LESS dangerous of two 'religious' factions... |

| Message | poppycock |
| Date | 22:08:30, January 20, 2006 CET | From | Commonwealth Workers Army | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | Response to the ISM: "poppycock"..... is that a riposte against any particular attack or just a general observation? |
| Date | 00:16:40, January 21, 2006 CET | From | Likaton Fascist Front | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | We feel that homosexual couples are doomed to fail to contribute to the gene pool. |
| Date | 00:30:06, January 21, 2006 CET | From | Conservative Liberal Party | To | Debating the ISM Traditional Likatonia Bill |
| Message | AAS: our leader wishes to suggest that currently ISM is secular, and has not made up its ind in the struggle between religious and secular elements. |
