Subcomandante VL Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) A Joint Announcement from The LSF and The UCR 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 Some will note that this treaty appears to be written in the form of a bloc. You would be correct to think this, as it was intended to have two further sets of signatures beneath it. The rapid decline of our comrades in the Socialist Workers Front and Nations Empowered Against Totalitarianism, be it due to inactivity or apathy towards this realm, leaves the Left wounded and deeply saddened. We have agreed that this treaty, therefore, should be left open for new entrants willing to take the places of our two dying friends. Our goal of leftist unity shall stand uncoloured for as long as this treaty exists, and as such, we hereby invite any current or future alliances who share our ideals to join us in our journey for a truly unified Left on Bob. And now a few notes from UCR: -We are no longer a member of the Arizona bloc, as of roughly a month or two ago. The TTE forums seem to be going through some issues so I can't check the exact date. -The UCR and Menotah have agreed, as the last two remaining members of the Kitten Defence Force, to dissolve the bloc. I don't have signatures or anything for this, but if it really bothers you (which I find highly unlikely) go ask them and they'll confirm it. -Nolaman61, an old member who has now returned to Bob, has recently been appointed our new IA minister. Congrats to him. -Pursuant to Die Linke, the UCR hereby recognizes a state of war with The International and the Orange Defense Network, thereby joining the Equilibrium coalition. Rest assured, however, that when this is all over we have no intention of becoming a limb (or finger, may be the better analogy) of any new attempts to control the global community by a few. Thank you all for your time. Edit: fml formatting. Edited January 27, 2013 by VladimirLenin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Spanier Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 -The UCR and Menotah have agreed, as the last two remaining members of the Kitten Defence Force, to dissolve the bloc. I don't have signatures or anything for this, but if it really bothers you (which I find highly unlikely) go ask them and they'll confirm it. This bothers me a lot. I put a lot of effort into making sure Kitten Defense Force was in fact named Kitten Defense Force. All that work now gone. Other then that sad note, welcome to the fight and congrats on the...treaty-bloc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grigoris Lambrakis Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Pathetic. This treaty, which you use to add yourself to a dog pile against comrades, was not active at the time LSF declared on Int and ODN. Your DoW has no legal basis. No practical value. No moral consistency. Pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subcomandante VL Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 You all clearly didn't read the treaty. There is no DoW. There is a recognition of hostilities, as UCR and LSF now comprise the same membership and LSF was currently at war. This treaty has been in the works for months (ask Trotsky, Hereno, jrkee, virtually anyone with a FB mask on the LSF forums) and was going to be announced either way late in this month, and war just sort of happened upon us. But as usual we all assume the worst and refuse to believe anything else. So whatever, continue with your futile whining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grigoris Lambrakis Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 There is no recognition of hostilities. There is only a dog pile. There is only a despicable act with no real precedent in the history of the CN left. You are shooting your comrades while there was no treaty obligation for you to do so. No legalistic mumbo-jumbo can change the essence of your act. I have no words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongol Swede Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Fellow denizens of the Federation, embarking upon our war of defense in the name of NATO against the imperialist bloc of C&G, and most notably, their lapdogs of the International, I ask you to consider a broader scope of this bloody conflict, one that has played out before in the history of the Left. An ideological struggle that defines our identity more clearly than any words uttered cheaply from the safety of our virtual bunkers of Digiterra, of Bob. Consider how, in our long history as a Federation, we have established the firmness of our character, the resolve of our conviction, and the strengthof our integrity. Consider how this has culminated in establishing in our identity the truth behind our pledges of solidarity. Never broken, always true to our comrades and allies, even in the face of utter oblivion. Along with our esteemed comrades in the Union of Communist Republics who, though they have taken more to the application of the iron fist in their own way, have proven their honor as faithful allies and true comrades, we have built an ideology, rooted first and foremost in its uncompromising commitment to Solidarity, and practiced over several years without breaking faith. It is strong and it is proven, despite the material setbacks we have endured, we find that the world has a way of vindicating those who live with the ways we have cultivated ourselves as a community. We see, in contrast, the ways of the International. The ways of Empire. Pixel-hugging, treaty breaking, solidarity from afar, quietly,passively, if even at all. And indeed, you'd be hard-pressed to find any such examples in their recent history. I can scarcely see one in the last year, for certain. The ways of Babylon are rampant in their lands. And after all of their scheming and plotting, what do they have to show for it? Their fate is enjoined with others like them, failing to learn from history, wallowing in Babylonian filth and corruption like a pig in slop. Yet even a pig is aware of her surroundings, and can sense the inevitable approach of its demise. The International, in forsaking Solidarity and embracing Order, has brought down a fierce hammer upon its withered brow. Its ruin is nigh. Its fate, sealed. The world has decided, that the forces that empowered these decadent Gomorrahnean wretches who desperately clung to the shaky and unstable powers of Order have to be balanced out of the equation. To restore peace, through Solidarity. Through Justice. Through Equilibrium. The LSF and the UCR, joined together, will realize this in defining the Left as a sphere of integrity, courage, and honor. For this is the true essence of Solidarity. May Die Linke never falter, with Solidarity our watchword. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this is something we could scarcely get out of our false comrades of INT, yet your esteemed membership was not above calling upon the Black Guards to cover the flank, a request we eagerly acquiesced to without hesitation, in your own Babylonian adventures. Keep your eyes on Die Linke. You might just learn something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mongol Swede Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Yes, the Equilibrium is a beacon of anti-imperialism and collective freedom. This is not Catalonia. This is about the Left, which you resolutely turned your back on a long time ago, clinging to your beloved new comrades in pawn-shuffling power blocs that would have had you abusing our honorbound oath to you to reduce the oldest Left alliance to yet another mere pawn. INT made its choice, and defiled our traditions, trading integrity for coin. And while we may share a common cause with Equilibrium, in the end, we are doing what we've always done, by honoring our treaty with NATO. And now, after months of discussion and years of building camaraderie, we have joined our banner with UCR's, to build the kind of unity that the high-and-mighty International refused to consider unless it was only under its own sole dominion.

Grigoris Lambrakis Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 And M-S posts again. Int may be the whore of Babylon, but I always liked colourful whores better than self-righteous priests, preaching from a safe distance the purity of their deserted souls, advocating virginity cause they can have no erections no more. Int never destroyed your alliances, while it has always been in its interest to do so, instead it kept you safe, time and time again, and if the price was its soul, it paid this price gladly. Someone had to pay that price. You should be grateful for that. You obviously are not. To each his sins I guess. Shoot the "whore" down now then, lynch her, "teach her a lesson", that's so pure, so white-feathered, a page from the Bible of the one true God; so libertarian of you.

Tell where the Left is, in sucking up to Francoists? Long before you accuse any of being lapdogs, look to your own leash, firmly in the hands of NPO. Do not mistake your suicide run on the rocks of NoR for some leftist crusade. It was a mere flight of fancy for the bored and the distressed. Do not think that you can welcome UCR in equal arms, you will have to carry that limping wretch for ages. Solidarity with the dead helps none.
