| Message | “The position of the UKWF remains the same: the end of public education is the end of a free society. It is only a matter of time until the curriculum is only what the “benevolent” overlords of the LDP want it to be, and our education system will contain as much truth as their newspaper: very little. When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty – to Narikaton and Darnussia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.” -Upton Reid, UKWF Revolutionary Wing Leader |
