| Message | "Obviously we can't support this, and we would like to question the reasoning of our imperial friends. Extensive privatisation of the media results invariably in ideological proliferation through means of media ideology. As my father wrote in the Nuncirist Manifesto (2269), "the media is the means of revolution". Now, if the media is private, people will be influenced by the media's ideology more than the government's ideology. This will result in discontent and eventually revolution if urged on further. This, of course, is a side-effect of the Perpetual Revolutionary State that exists before Nuncirist alignment. We would impore our imperial friends to consider the meaning of this media privatisation suggestion for our Government and our imperium." Rt. Hon. Vincent D. Garton Minister of Internal Affairs Grand Viceroy of the Supreme Power of the Axis Mundi Nuncirist Empire |
