It's time for change

And as usual I am at a complete loss for words...

Or thought...

Or understanding for that matter o-o:

My natural inclination is towards Anarchyspace because, well, anarchy rocks. And in an environment like the forums, anarchy would actually work as opposed to in real life where people seem to have this desperate need for order. But I'm afraid of Jim North.

But I like parties, and I'd like gold for my mad science. Although really I'd prefer some Ruthenium, 'cause that's way more expensive than gold, and much more catalytically useful. However, I notice that Partispace is not advertising free alcohol or even soft drinks, and what kind of a party is that?

As for commies... damn communist dogs!

...that is all.

Ah man. Is the one-eyed demonic coorporate wig bigwig demographic going to be represented this time?

The Lumberjack/Swedish Alliance:

seperately, the Lumberjacks worked all night to protect you from those nasty moose bites (then slept all day), and the Swedish Party bounced around much to merrily for their climate, offering democratic socialism, fake accents and beach volleyball.

by their powers combined they are... A MONSTER!!

I suggest that the evil and intelligent among us support the party most likely to win... i.e., tells the most lies, consolidate their power under one roof and secretly work for their own gains behind the proverbial throne. This will allow a smooth transistion as various persons embed mind controling code into the HTML and harness the power of ComicGenesis members for their own selfish and satisfying gains, at which time they proceed to take over the world with well drawn and written propaganda also with embedded mind controling technology.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is worth far more than a mere 10,000 gold.

FineAndDandySpace

Our party policies are to retain whatever we have now and not change anything.

I think it's a nice offer.

Sortelli · Post by **Sortelli** » Mon May 01, 2006 3:26 am

Interesting... yes... I see the benefits. But it's a bit reactionary, I suppose.

Well, I was torn for a minute between sticking with anarchyspace or joining up with partyspace...but I think I'll just keep the family together, and stick with anarchy space.

The truly evil will work from within, corruping all sides at once until everything is under their glorious, steel-toed boot of oppression.

... Of course, I'm just speculating that. *cough*

I reject this fearmongering about change, I reject this fearmongering about the current order. You cannot scare me with your temptations of gold or appeals to raw power and evil. I will not submit to the Culture of Fear!

I am starting the Fear Party!

Vote for us, because the other guys are trying to seize power by scaring you!

No, they are trying to seize power by lying to you! I, of course, have nothing to do with the proverbial 'them' and thus you can trust me.

BrownEyedCat · Post by **BrownEyedCat** » Mon May 01, 2006 10:57 pm

I'd like to announce the formation of a new party, the Reformed Lurker Party!

As the candidate for the Reformed Lurker Party, I, BrownEyedCat, advocate a hands off approach to the running of GD.

I have a long history of residency in KeenComicGenesisSpace, even after moving off the host, and a good record of not-being-a-jerk in the forums and the jams.

I also have a policy of not flooding forums with political threads, which is why this announcement is made here, and will be cross-posted in the Illuminati thread.

"Vote Reformed Lurker! We Probably Won't Win, But if We Do, We'll be Nice and Sympathetic to all the Parties Who Lost!"

That was perfect. We should totally team up.

Edit: OH NO WAIT YOU'RE ONE OF THEM

Yeah, go ahead and do this election thing. One way or another, Illuminati Space will be in control.

Bob has another year in office, bedroom, or where-ever.

Sortelli · Post by **Sortelli** » Mon May 01, 2006 11:12 pm

That's no reason why we can't start tearing down his administration now.

Wait, I'm still in it, huh? Oh well. I'll be a "maverick."

Sortelli · Post by **Sortelli** » Mon May 01, 2006 11:47 pm

That's okay, I was going to advocate ruthless crackdowns as soon as I got into power anyway. Which I can do just as well in the Ministry of Wigs and Gravy. All hail Bob!

Ah, but I ask you, fellow CGers . . . how long will it be before they start selling Doombees to our own people?!

We at AnarchySpace accept the coming of the Doombees as an inevitability that should not and cannot be forced. Attempts to do so will only lead to PartiGenesis' own doomination.

And the PartiGenesis gives you something that AnarchySpace doesn't: A scapegoat.

We've got plenty of scapegoats. You, for example. You did it.

I'm just the most active member of AnarchySpace and only party leader in name. Everyone in AnarchySpace is actually in charge of themselves, so there's no reason to fear me.

Except for the constant death threats and the way I wave this giant cudgel around like a madman.

For AnarchySpace, EVERY day is a party!

Mostly because every day is Mooman Day!

Yay!

Only a controller of evil, Dark.

What AnarchySpace fails to address, is the track record of "perfect societies". Where is the plan to keep GD from falling under the power of a dictator? Human nature is to seek the most power, and without a failsafe to prevent an autocrat from taking over, the goals of AnarchySpace will have been lost. The PartiGenesis is comitted to the goals and ideas of democratic representation, and seeks to ensure that every GDer's voice will be heard by the government.
