Hereno Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) We have finally finished our Manifesto of Membership (in pigdogspeak, it's our alliance charter). Here it is: Manifesto of Membership in the Socialist International Preamble This document outlines the rights and responsibilities of membership in the Socialist International, as well as its organizational vision and the means by which that vision will be achieved. Section 1: The Vision Subsection 1: This alliance is a red-colored, socialist alliance. Subsection 2: This alliance does not discriminate based on sex, gender, religion, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability status. Subsection 3: This alliance is a meritocratic democracy which functions according to the principles of New Democracy. Section 2: Rights and Duties of Membership Subsection 1: All members are entitled to vote in elections, challenge their way into the administration, and receive support and defense against aggression. Subsection 2: All members are entitled to receive the fruits of their hard work, which includes participation in the alliance economy. Subsection 3: All members pledge themselves to the defense of the alliance and its principles, which includes respecting each other as individuals, fighting in wars, and being subject to taxation by the alliance bank. Subsection 4: All members can leave the alliance at any time for any (or no) reason, provided they are not in debt to the alliance or deserting during war time. Subsection 5: All members agree to uphold this Manifesto in its entirety and to always act in the best interests of all of the working peoples of the Socialist International.

SAI-40 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Good on you, SI. Short, simple, clear. Quote "They're turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers. But what's the real cost? ‘Cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper. Why are we still paying so much for sneakers when you got them made by little slave kids? What are your overheads?"

TheNG Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Ah good, a charter I can actually finish reading in this lifetime. o/ SI 2 Quote "They say the secret to success is being at the right place at the right time. But since you never know when the right time is going to be, I figure the trick is to find the right place and just hang around!" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <Kastor> He left and my !@#$ nation is !@#$ed up. And the Finance guy refuses to help. He just writes his !@#$ plays. <Kastor> And laughs and shit. <Kastor> And gives out !@#$ huge loans to Arthur James, that !@#$ bastard.

Adama Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Good job guys. Quote If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a roll. There is one you will follow. One who is the shining star, and he will lead you to beautiful places in the search of his own vanity. And when there is no more vanity to be found, he will leave you in darkness, as a fading memory of his own creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayayay Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Too short. I'm still not going to read it, but it could stand to be a few paragraphs longer. Far easier to hide a "Awesomemember1 can disregard this charter and do whatever he wants" clause that way. Edited November 5, 2014 by underlordgc Quote Orbis Wars | CSI: UPN | B I G O O F | PW Expert Has Nerve To Tell You How To Run Your Own Goddamn Alliance | Occupy Wall Street | Sheepy Sings TheNG - My favorite part is when Steve suggests DEIC might have done something remotely successful, then gets massively shit on for proposing such a stupid idea.

P2K Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Every member should automatically know they will have to defend their alliance to the death ounce they join. I would hope so anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'd like to point out a grammatical error. You used "socialist" and "meritocratic" to describe the same noun (your alliance). Pretty sure that's grammatically incorrect.
