    I trust my old Comrades are also remembering, on this day, to honor those who sacrificed themselves for our cause; former allies like the Byzantine Empire, who came to our defense in our greatest hour of need, all those years ago. May their honorable defense of the revolution not be forgotten.

  5. Springing to the Front

    April's been a good month for the resurgence of activity across the broader Left here on Bob, encapsulating the spirit of Spring and invigorating our communities. Ties between our respective alliances have been strengthened, and a new flurry of activity has taken hold here on the OWF as we shake off the dust of a long winter's slumber.

    Recently, the Front has been engaging in some spring cleaning of its own, embarking on a modest path of engaging with old allies and new friends, and looking inward to find a source of inspiration for the next steps we will take. Then we realized it was time to hold a new round of elections, and the results have come back with some pretty interesting results.

    On behalf of the General Congress of the Socialist Workers Front, may I present the latest line-up of those unfortunate enough to be saddled with the responsibility of picking up after the Party.

    Maybe he meant NoV brand nova lox. Good eats, man, but if you leave it out even for like 20 minutes, it gets pretty funky, dude. I'm guessing Anarchia had a pretty bad experience with it once.

    I resent the implication that this shininess is recent.
    [/quote]

    Indeed, it is a glory steeped in history. And I certainly haven't forgotten it. In time, others who follow the Shining Path will come to understand and appreciate the depth of such history, to better appreciate things as they are now, and to understand the Path that lies before them.

    It will be glorious. And did I mention, even more shiny than before?

    Gestures of international solidarity carry no meaning without true commitment between those expressing it in word. Too often, alliances sign treaties with the best of intentions, making strong commitments that, as history has far too often demonstrated, are broken when a true test is presented. Even the most firmly worded mutual defense pacts are vulnerable to be cast to the wayside, and some alliances have gotten wise to really getting to know who they’re getting into bed with.

    The Socialist Workers Front and the Nations Empowered Against Totalitarianism are two such alliances that take the treaties they sign very seriously, refusing to sign out of convenience or, for any other reason, besides true commitment and respect for the aims, goals and personal agendas of their fellow signatories. Over time, the respective memberships of the SWF and NEAT have weighed and valued one another, getting to know one another, forging personal bonds of friendship; in fact, laying the foundation for a solid relationship that will make treaties like this and others wholly superficial and redundant. Still, a little formality never hurts to sweeten the deal.

    And so, without further ado, the treaty that will serve as a formal foundation of our friendship. And permit me to say that I hope this will certainly not be the last...

    [SIZE=6][b]Anti-Totalitarian Treaty of Friendship[/b][/SIZE]

    [SIZE=4][b]Section I: Recognition of The Right to Self-Determination[/b][/SIZE]

    The Nations Empowered Against Totalitarianism and the Socialist Workers Front recognize the fundamental rights of peace, prosperity and autonomy of their fellow signatories.

    [SIZE=4][b]Section II: Non-Aggression and Reconciliation of Hostilities[/b][/SIZE]

    Neither alliance shall engage in or endorse military action against the other signatory. If a nation is found in violation of this they will be ordered to offer peace and reparations, the amount of which to be decided by the signatories governments on a case-by-case basis. Defending nations are required to limit retaliation to the level of attacks received. Should an offending nation refuse to offer peace and agree on terms of reparations, as decided by their alliance's government, they will be declared a rogue and will no longer be offered the protection of either alliance. This section shall also extend to matters of espionage, or any other act that violates Section I.

    [SIZE=4][b]Section III: Extra-territorial Aggression and Self-Defense Agreement[/b][/SIZE]

    Pursuant to Section I, the signatories of either alliance shall be encouraged, but not necessarily obligated, to provide, in a timely manner, any support, be it military, intelligence, diplomatic, or economic assistance to one another, in times of war or peace, in a matter of defense or, as a matter of any act deemed beyond the bounds of self-defense. Either signatory is free to request any such aid, at any time, and pursuant to Section I, neither signatory shall be obligated to fulfill any such request, in whole or in part.

    [b][SIZE=4]Section IV: Suspension and Termination of This Formal Agreement[/b][/SIZE]

    Should either signatory find that this agreement no longer suits their own sovereign interests, it shall be obliged upon that signatory to inform their partners of this agreement of this development, in writing, with 72 hours notice before such agreement shall be formally suspended. In such extreme circumstances where it is discovered that either signatory harbors deliberate and unrequited intent to violate Section I of this agreement, no such notification waiting process shall be required, and this agreement will terminate immediately, failing the efforts of either signatory to reconcile the matter as outlined in Section II.

  20. The LSF True Revolution Conference.

    Posted

    I salute my Comrades of the LSF for taking this stance. It has always been my true home all through the years, and it gives me great pride to call them my allies and Comrades in our mutual struggle for peace, prosperity, and autonomy in the world, for all nations. I can assure you that the SWF will, undoubtedly, have a marked presence in building this conference up to a greatness worthy of the free and sovereign nations of the world, and those yearning for freedom still.

    Unless I'm reading the OP wrong, this isn't a DoE but rather a simple announcement of new elections. The "Pluralism" part is just rhetoric. Speaking of which, the CNLeft wouldn't be it's usual entertaining self without the innumerable factions it boasts on a regular basis so maybe you guys should keep that up.
    [/quote]

    It is, in fact, a DoE, masked in a personal observation. I wouldn't call it rhetoric when the CNLeft has one of the most fluid and unified memberships on Bob.

    Those of you familiar with my occasional postings here might be wondering why I'm not flying the flag for the good ole' LSF. As someone who has always saw the idea of Leftist Unity as something of an abstract before recent events, I've come to realize that the real meaning behind this concept is the strength of our collective community, regardless of the AA we label ourselves with, and the folks we more closely associate with, by relation to said AA. As I've stated before in response to the 'lolcommiesneed2merge' stuff, sometimes we need a little space in order to get along better, much like good friends who try to live under the same roof sometimes discover that it's necessary to put a little distance between them, in order to strengthen their friendship. This should not be seen as a sign of fracturing relations - rather, it is a necessary step that has been taken, in order to avoid such a fracturing.

    Without further ado, I would like to announce that the Socialist Workers Front has recently held elections for its elected officers, as well as a new Constitution, which has been ratified by the General Congress:

  25. Announcement From The German Empire

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted · Edited by The Mongol-Swedes

    Understanding Nordreich and TGE is like understanding beans and cornbread.

    See, beans spent its whole day just huffing and puffing and swelling up in that simmering pot all day long, getting ready for the big night. Then along came cornbread, sweet and succulent out of the oven, and everyone gathered round to take it in. Mm-MMM! Can't resist a good hunk of cornbread on your dinner plate. Well now, beans sure didn't like that. So when dinner came and beans made it to the table, there was cornbread, getting all the goods from the folks gathered round. Beans went right up to cornbread and knocked him out of sight! Cornbread picked himself up and said "that's alright. You might be mad at me. I ain't mad at you, though. But I'll be ready for you tommorow night out on the corner."

    So the next night, there was beans and cornbread throwing down on the dinner table. A helluva culinary misadventure, I can tell you. And moreso, since after a while, folks began to realize just how terrible they were apart. I mean, beans'll fill you right up, but they're boring, while cornbread tastes great, but you can't live on cornbread alone. So finally they put their misgivings aside and went on down the line, hand in hand.

    So quit yapping on and on about how it's just so awful. There's some bad blood leftover, sure but, I reckon that TGE and NoR are gonna do good things together.

    ...although, I reckon some folks just don't like beans and cornbread.

    EDIT: You know what? Better make that weiners and sauerkraut.
