Viva la Revolution! by dexter in question

July 4th, 2007 8:27 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Start an internet revolt.

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of the UK Union is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He sucks.

As of July 4th, 2007, I, the former Imperial Dexter, do break past and future connections with the UK Union and their tyrannical methods. I extended an invitation to the fellow enslaved colonies of Queen Z, Geronimo Duke, and Earl Barry Ian John the Third, as well as other players who may have been sucked into the malignant cesspool of the "Union," who acts only at the will of one man, or should a say one mouse. Long live the state of disunion.

I have a new partner in rebellion, the former Queen Z! She has been christened in the blood of the revolution!

Why should I join your fight? King Mouse has promised me titles and dominion in the New World if I side with him, what can you offer an interested party?

posted by dexter in question on July 5th, 2007 5:51 PM

King Mouse offers you titles and dominion, but inherent in that system is a hierarchy - he will still be King and you will still be a subject. We are creating a classless society here, one based on equality and a fair system of self-government. We are all equal here - what can he offer but slavery?

WOah woah woah!!! I did not know that I was under the imperial rule of King Mouse, slow down there, I already have a queen... and I might add to those who don't know, that Earl is my first name, not a title.

I am stating here and now that I am going to fight for my country and its independance and second to that pledge my fight towards ensuring a strong transatlantic bond, where we may work in creative harmony.

But in order that this can be achieved, Uk0 must be recognised on equal footing with its Transatlantic brothers and sisters, King Mouse and the rest of UK0 must use their position within th UK0 community and fight for unity, peace, happiness and equality which in turn can work towards a democracy, where we can push for an elected UK0 representative.

I would also like to see a world union flag created representing the coming together of nations in a world already frought with conflict!!!

Unity, Peace, Happiness and Equality: Tomorrow.

War, Rebellion Quashing, Mighty Armadas of Hot Air Balloons dropping molten lead on our enemies: Today!

Elected UK0 Representative: In a few years!

Fight fight fight!

He has stolen our Queen, and we are not certain of where he has taken her. Our analysts point to Troy as being a likely target.

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of rebellion, if necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty's Government-every man of them. That is the will of the Monarchy and the Nation. The British Empire will defend to the death their native soil. Even though large tracts of The UK0 union and many old and famous tasks have fallen or may fall into the grip of the unImperial Dexter and all the odious apparatus of yokel rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in the WebPages, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in forums; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Royal Hot Air Balloon Armada, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the Old World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the new.

Rally my British Brothers!!!

What is the world coming to? You interrupt my afternoon tea at the Savoy for this! I’m not opposed to telling you that when I heard the news my scone flew from my white gloved hand! Good god man, this whole situation is pure poppycock, independence my arse. This whole thing can be fixed over a nice hot cup of tea and warm buttery crumpet, if you want to fix it that is. If not, well….. WAR WAR WAR DAMNIT!

posted by Meta tron on July 6th, 2007 4:02 PM

You call me a slave sir! You are the one who is enslaved! Forcing your ill defined notion of 'freedom' upon the masses is to deny us our rights to structure and security. I may not be a king sir, but until you prevail I am most definitely not a serf.

We shall defend our union, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the weblogs, we shall fight on the forums, we shall fight in the comments fields and in the tasks, we shall fight in the hyperlinks;

we shall never surrender.

The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row therefore I am going to stay in my little boat and eat English chocolate and American Ice cream. I do not understand why we are declaring war on one and other? Or why we have to label ourselves as belonging to anybody. Therefore I declare myself free from you both, I want nothing to do with fighting, there is already far too much of that going on from the world we are surely trying to have an outlet from?

I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.

This choice was not easy. It meant sacrifice. It meant turning my back on a land I loved, the people I love, and the former glory of what we achieved together. But I for one, and if only for one, do not believe in defending a glory past when the future holds nothing. It is a disgrace to all that we once achieved to allow such a union to fall into tyranny, disrepair, and ignominy. Even the most ornate palaces can have broken foundations, the most serene lakes can be contaminated. Even the most honest man can be lead in to ways against his own nature in the sake of a cause he feels is bigger than himself. Forming a new government is a lot like shoe shopping - first, you must realize you need new shoes. You must get to the store by any means necessary, you must ask for help, try on a lot of damn pairs, settle on one, and walk through the growing pains. I'm heading to the store. Where are the rest of you?

I am not entirely sure what Dexter at Liberty is offering here but he does have a point. You see what future does the union hold when it is run by a certain Mouse who crowned himself and ordered others to follow in his new glory. I was naive back then, I had hoped that we could be Great once again, yet being part of the union offered me nothing. I wish it had, I still wish it will but I guess time can only tell...

As for sitting on the fence, I am not. I am still rowing in the Atlantic. All I know is the only thing that has been offered is independence and happiness and I like the sound of that, so maybe I should start going shopping...
