America: Write Your Own History

Royal Tenenbaum said:

As a capitalist and a traitor, I'm not surprised you are uninformed and illiterate about the issue. These corporations, private interest groups, and overall enemies to social welfare had been offered compensation, but the large amount of them either were bankrupted by the public's education about the evils of corporations, or refused the compensation due to their pride and patriotism for the secessionists.

Yeah right. If the capitalists are so greedy why would they do anything that would risk their money?

Well considering they are more likely to lose the money they do not deserve in a communist society than relocating...

Royal Tenenbaum said:

The case barely made it into a court. This is a time when the elected president and Chairman of the Communist Party is saving America from rebels who pose to destroy the sacred constitution! The Communist Party is mobilizing the people and has legally followed the constitution! Corporations and private interest groups have been largely undermined, not through illegal means, but by eminent domain and their connections with capitalist rebels. During this time, when Foster is saving the nation, you want to sue the country to further help the capitalists? This is not about money, this is about socialization and distributing wealth to the greater masses! You are put on trial for conspiracy against the nation and will be tried in late 1930.

4th Amendment of United States Constitution said:

AMENDMENT IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The reason used for seizure of persons and property by the 4th Amendment is usually that for an already existing crime that investigation is needed for. The owner of the seized property is almost always already under charges of a crime. So therefore, the reason of "a new economic policy is being instituted" is completely unreasonable! I had no standing crimes against me before the communists seized my property. And now I am arrested solely for the reasons of

Imprisonment for obstruction to the revolutionary process

What is this revolutionary process? That is a very vague charge, and it does not refer to who I am obstructing, and the usage of the word "to" is also very confusing. The entire argument of "promoting treason" does not work here because I have not promoted treason or secession! I voted against secession! I merely legally protested the forced seizure of my property without legal justification, and now it seems that I am suddenly supporting a revolution! That notion is absurd. If I am being arrested for the untrue idea that I am supporting the capitalist revolution is also violating the First Amendment and currently suspending Habeas Corpus by providing a vague, unconstitutional reason. If I had said something like:

Down with the evil commie bastards and death to President Foster! I suit the USA ( I support the real, capitalist name) in the court of law under the idea that seizure of private property is evil commie basilsnaps, because I don't want my sprawling McMansion to be taken from me by the evil commie idiots!

Click to expand...

then you would have valid constitutional grounds for arresting me because I promoted the death of a US official. However, I merely said:

I suit the USA (I will refuse to call it by its incorrect name) in the court of law under the idea that seizure of private property is unconstitutional by the 4th Amendment, because I do not want my property seized by the government and they tried to do that.

Click to expand...

No treasonous words there (refusing to call it the USSA is just my inability to adapt to the rapidly changing times), just a peaceful protest! So right now, the court has to deal with illegal seizure of property, violation of the right of free speech, and suspension of habeas corpus.

Not at all illegal. Secession is illegal. The governor of New Jersey not only has suspected ties with capitalists rebels but attempts to drain the nation's wealth out of his own greed for large estates and mountains of wealth. No! The communist revolution will not be stopped by capitalist propaganda that try to tell us we ruin the constitution. Find where we did wrong and surely we will issue an apology. But know that you will find no such error, and the revolution is both liberating and just.

I agree. Secession is illegal and an abomination. I think that the radical capitalists are wrong in seceding. I think that instead of fight, we should talk and try to resolve our differences without war, and instead through compromise and cooperation. I own a house. So does Mr. Foster, whose White House is much larger than my house. My above reasons are what you did wrong. I rest my case.

With hope for the future,

Senator T. Renzo Lancelot Trevisan (Moderate Socialist) of New Jersey

I have a bad feeling about all this.

As I was walking down the road to get home I saw several pigs displayed in abandoned Aluminum Corporation Buildings with phrases written like: "Let's destroy these filthy communists" or "Down with the communist scum!" or even "Foster is one traitorous communist imperialist Red Pig Cop!"

The images were like this:


I remember seeing this several blocks away from home some years ago when Foster was trying to get elected for the first time.

This situation is going out of control! Please Mr. President think about all of this and try not to lead us to our Doom. Honest American Citizens just want their normal lives back!

If you elect a radical, then how can you not expect radicalism in retaliation?

As the leader of the Southeastern Confederacy I request a meeting with President Foster to solve this crisis diplomatically as neither of us want to see bloodshed. I suggest we meet in Switzerland.

Shhhhshh! You might get jailed my friend

Article 58 of United Socialist States of America Penal Code:

Definition of Secessionist Activity:
""A secessionist action is any action aimed at overthrowing, undermining or weakening the power of workers' and industrialists' United States... and governments of the USSA and American and autonomous republics, or at the undermining or weakening of the external security of the USSA and main economical, political and national achievements of the proletarial revolution"

58-1a: Treason. Death sentence or 10 years in specialized prison (currently with the large majority at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba). Both cases result in property confiscation.
58-1b: Treason by military personnel. Death penalty and property confiscation.
58-1c: In case of escape or flight of those accused of 58-1b, relatives of the accused are subject to 5-10 years in prison with confiscation or specialized labor under new criminal work organizations.
58-1d: Non-report of treason. 10 years imprisonment.
58-2: Intervention against Congressional goals. Up to death with confiscation.
etc...

This law was passed during the State nationalization and was legally passed through Congress. Governor of New Jersey, to make things clearer, you are in violation of 58-2, and you are arrested and will be put to trial in late 1930; no questions asked. The nationalization of key industries important to the welfare of the People are good and nearly finished, and you have been charged with interfering. The state did not break the 4th Amendment as they were confiscated after refusal to accept compensation.

Could Mr. Foster give us a report on our Military Advancements? Which are our best ships and units? My son is going to enlist soon and he would like to know

The Dixie States will find justice, just as they did in the first Civil War. Furthermore, another 10 years of Reconstruction might liberate the area from so much capitalist propaganda.

It'll be a while until I pick up on playing again. I think tonight I'll get around to finishing the term.

I am deeply disappointed that you would reject my meeting President Foster. I would've thought that you wouldn't have wanted to spill any blood but I can see I was wrong. It is thus with a heavy heart I announce that we have not only armed our soldiers but that almost the entire populace of the states will be fighting your soldiers. We would rather see the entirety of Dixie burn the suffer from the Communist's.

Comintern Conference Decides on Nuclear Weapon Ban!



Following a long debate within the Communist International Conference, Communist theorists, activists and politicians from around the world voted 2:1 to ban nuclear weapon production and use around the world. ICBM projects in Colorado, Toronto, and Winnipeg have subsequently been abandoned with their focus switched to military preparation against the secessions of Pacific Columbia and the Dixie States. The Communist Party, having a majority in both the House of Representatives and Senate following many right-wing politicians joining the rebellion, easily passed the bill.

Riots Break Out In South Africa!​

Rioters in the seceded South African city of Cape Town storm the streets and are attempting to take a rebel tank.​

Following the secession of South Africa by only a few months, massive amounts of riots have occurred in Independent South Africa as pro-communist and pro-Union raise arms against the Capitalist secessionists. Men and women took their runs and made for the streets to defend what they say they were born as, citizens of America. They are not happy about becoming a new nation. Hundreds of casualties have been reported with most being policemen and rioters. There are currently rioters numbering in the tens of thousands in both Durban and Cape Town. The newly formed nation will have a very hard time maintaining peace and especially defending themselves against the might of the American army. Communist supporter and now appointed field general of a force to fight the revolutionaries, Caterpillar King, has commented on current affairs and describes them as "deplorable" and calls the rebels "whining capitalistic children who only want what is perfect for them." On the contrary, TheNoob, states that this is "necessary" to "depose the communist tyrants." A mass exodus has occurred in the region of South Africa to neighboring nations including many supporters of the Union fleeing to the American holdings to the North in fear of persecution. Fires burn brightly in the city of Cape Town and can be seen from many miles away in the American city of Windhoek. It is a constant blaze that has been burning for the past week as chants emanate loudly from the city. One popular phrase is repeated over and over again as the battle cry for the pro-Union/Communist rioters, "America the great, fight for our state!" The ant-union revolutionaries are still trying to get their military under some kind of proper command. In the mean time, rioters disrupt any forming together of a military as an army would decimate the rioters and break them up. The riots have no end in sight and are expected to last a very long time, possibly long enough for America to reclaim her lost territory.

I never said this was necessary! These are communist lies! I am working my hardest to calm these riots. Unlike you Americans, I am trying to get peace in my country between my communist and capitalist citizens. I just want my citizens to be able to have a free life and not live in fear of being murdered.

You implied the secession was necessary. This was an unbiased report of the riots in Cape Town and Durban but mostly focusing on Cape Town.

OOC: What did you think of my news article? Not from a political point of view, as a writer.

There is literally no end to the communist propaganda. Why not focus on what is happening in the rest of the US? Why do you Communists feel the need to be negative the entire time?

Any man who can read will notice this isolated report is at odds with all other reports. They will also notice the tank in said picture is not of American origin... Therefore it cannot belong to SA security services! I suspect fakery by the Communist propaganda department or malicious groups trying to cause death and destruction by inflaming tensions in what had been a peaceful region prior to this.
