Fadeev Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Socialist Workers Front is Entering Die Linke Preamble We, the signatory alliances, by remaining true to the ideals universal amongst our movement including equality, solidarity, vigilence, commitment and internationalism, in one of the darkest of hours for our movement in this world, have grown closer to one another than many may had thought possible. Blood has been spilled. Entire nations have been wiped from existence. Some of us even considered, or indeed did, give up hope. We hereby look to cement that relationship and camaraderie eternally built in the past months in the form of this treaty, in the hope that we shan't ever be torn asunder by petty differences in our structures, worldviews, or power relations ever again. This treaty is hereby enshrined not only for us, but in spirit of all those whose ideals have been forsaken and their friendships torn asunder by the stupidity of this world in the past. We are the workers, we are the vanguard, we are the black bloc. We are Die Linke.Article I: On Solidarity 1. All signatory member alliances of Die Linke are to remain sovereign. 2. All members of a signatory alliance are now, from this day forth, considered to be members of all signatory alliances, and shall be treated as such in every possible capacity. 2a. This clause becomes limited when voting on internal matters. All members of all signatories are expected to have a "base of operations," which is reflected by their nation's Alliance Affiliation.Article II: On Equality 1. All signatories to this treaty are considered to be in equal standing, regardless of the amount of nations flying their Alliance Affiliation. 2. On their honour, no signatory is to infringe upon the rights of any other, be it through the revoking of masks, intentional shuffling of blocs of members to skew a vote, etc.Article III: On Vigilence 1. As it likely goes without saying, an attack on one signatory of this treaty is to be treated as an attack on all signatories, and additionally, an attack by a signatory should be taken as an attack by all signatories. 2. Any signatory to this treaty has the obligation to inform all other signatories of their intentions to attack another group to the other signatories at least 48 hours before any attack occurs.Article IV: On Commitment 1. This treaty represents an eternal bond. Once signed, a signatory cannot voluntarily revoke their signature. 2. Any disputes that should arise between signatories are expected to be dealt with in a civil fashion. "Roguing" on your fellow comrades is dishonourable and rude, and all original signatories are in agreement on this point. 3. This treaty can only be amended with unanimous consent of all its signatories.Article IV: On Internationalism 1. Any signatory may extend an invitation to any outside alliance to sign this treaty that it deems fitting to the outlined ideals. 2. Any outside alliance invited to sign this treaty that is willing to eternally commit themselves to these ideals must be unanimously confirmed by all its current signatories.Signed for the Libertarian Socialist Federation,The Delegates CouncilSigned for the Union of Communist Republics,ComradeV, Premier VladimirLenin, Commissar of Foreign Affairs RA2Leader, Commissar of Defense Nolaman61, Commissar of Internal Affairs Sondirrasta, Commissar of Finance Signed for the Socialist Workers Front, General Congress of the Socialist Workers Front For several month a wave of inactivity fell upon The Front because of most our members being busy in RL. Today we are back and the first thing we felt was needed to be done was to get back close with our dear comrades. Although SWF was part in the original negotiations in building up Die Linke, we were left out of it due to the previous mentioned inactivity. Now we feel its our moral duty to support our comrades in LSF and UCR. Together with our comrades, the Front feels we can build through Die Linke a better, stronger and more healthy leftist movement in the Cyberverse. Special thanks to UCR and LSF for not leaving us down in the past and believing in us during the time of inactivity. Thank you for your attention! Workers of the World, Unite!

Krashnaia Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Man that took longer than I expected it would My commentary is fitting given the background of the logo used in the treaty. I'd explain further but that would bring us into OOC territory. Since you are from Int and apparently took offence at my comment, let me clarify that it has been a while since the last time I paid attention to the quarrels among leftist-themed alliances in Bob (I have enough of it on the alternate reality some guys here refer as "OOC"). I understand there may be some stains in the relationships of The International and some of the signatory alliances in the OP, but my comment was not aimed as a jest at Int. (In fact, I recall that the only time I cared about Int was to actually help them - and the alliances in the OP - to get rid of some obscure rogue incident years ago). Feel free to contact me in private if you require further explanations. I do not want to steal the show in this thread from the fine people in the OP.

I'd explain further but that would bring us into OOC territory. Since you are from Int and apparently took offence at my comment, let me clarify that it has been a while since the last time I paid attention to the inter-relationships of leftist-themed alliances in Bob (I have enough bother with quarrels among leftist organizations in the alternate reality some guys here refer as "OOC"). I understand there may be some stains in the relationships of The International and some of the signatory alliances in the OP. But my comment was not aimed as a jest at Int. (In fact, I recall that the only time I cared about Int was to actually help them - and other commie-themed alliances - to get rid of some obscure rogue incident years ago). Probably should have keft "real" out of your comment then. Although I have yet to see an eternal treaty work out, good luck on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the rebel Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Although I have yet to see an eternal treaty work out, good luck on this. Leadership changes and FA changes tend to nullify the "eternal" parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krashnaia Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Probably should have keft "real" out of your comment then. Claiming to be the "real" left - as opposed to the official "left party" in two-party systems - is like a tradition for any self-respecting leftist organization out there. Since the logo used on the OP belongs to an organization who belongs to the "alternative" left in the Forbidden Zone, hence my comment. So, sorry if anyone read too much on my remark. Not intended as a jab against anyone since as I said I do not pay attention to the rivalries among the left of Bob.

Ardus Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Any decision of a past sovereign may be undone by a subsequent sovereign. There is no law or treaty immortal beyond the will of its subjects. To do otherwise would shackle the people of tomorrow to the whims of today.

Where you see the people of tomorrow shackled, we on the left see the foundations laid for an argument that's scale is matched only by the obscurity of the rhetorical references employed in its prosecution.

Subcomandante VL Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Still can't get over the bloc's name, let alone it's text. Never change, fellas. There's some within still insisting that the name should be changed. Having written it and chosen the name I was initially offended but honestly the more I look at it the less I like it. But meh, it still seems fitting. vOv Back on topic, glad to see it announced and glad to have you SWF. Maybe we can inspire NEAT to a comeback while we're at it.

Grigoris Lambrakis Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 If you get NEAT in too, this will start looking like a nice micro-leftist bloc opening some interesting possibilities, although it also has lilmitations known to all. I wish you all success :) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
