Message | This is an outright assault on the freedom of press - which must be fundamental even during wartime. We can't censor ourselves to peace and prosperity not even during the nation's darkest hours. Kanjor's taxpayers pay for our nation to have public service TV and radio - so that can instead be used for vital societal information for citizens. This law is unnecessary and it's frankly worrying that the PPSK would propose anything of this fashion . |

Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
Random quote: "In Germany they first came for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
