The Empire of the Formatting Crew calls for a worldwide embargo against the Empire of the Setting Sun. While we aren't the leaders in social freedoms we don't kill people for using freaking computer programs. They are also hypocrites as they are using formatting in their post criminalizing formatting. We killed maybe 100 people tops to ensure that our country would be stable. These guys have definitely kill more than that. I propose that the General Assembly votes on this issue.

Renfair suggests we all stop arguing about this and get back to the important debates: ropes or chains?

...and the Empire of the Formatting Crew embargoes the AOZ and proposes that it should be given the same treatment as the Empire of the Setting Sun.

We're *beep*ing *beep*ings are we? How does that make us worse than people who kill people for using features on Word? Would you like it if someone came and blew up your city because you were using Word? I think not.
If you decide to not ally yourself with ESS and unembargo us, we will be happy to lift our sanctions AND remove you from the worldwide embargo proposal.

IC: "Stuff a ballgag in it."
OOC: Just no. No. That's WAAAY extreme. Not that we like what Son did, but you're irritating the Renfairian senses as well.
Now we return to devising the kinkiest ways to lower RR possible.

Make chains out of ropes, obviously.
Patton: We are not god*beep* allies with those nazis in the Caribbean, and are embargoing you because your "nation" makes no absolute sense and is a dictatorship!
MacArthur: At least the commies do not worship letters of the alphabet too.
Eisenhower: Are you sure you two are not taking this too far?
Patton and MacArthur: No!

What, you think it too extreme to propose sanctions against people who kill people who use Word? I am disappointed, LH.

Commander Ortiz, Emperor-willing, will be there when these floating beasts of steel and destruction set forth across the small sea to spread the Teachings to the savages of Central America. Night falls in Havana but the city bustled with activity no less as Havana was a center of trade in the region. The once inactive docks of Havana also bustled, with a different kind of energy of that of the entertainment district of Havana-2 (shortform: Havana).
The knowledge of foreign empires isn't some amazing fact to the Setting Sun. Far from it. It would be a tragedy in the eyes of the Emperor is stability didn't reform elsewhere in the world following the Dark Period. Foreign residents resided in the Empire and foreign merchants traded in the port cities. The Emperor (by his venerated name!) would put forth the Toleration Edicts in which heathens could find peace with as it meant peace in favor of trade. Heresy, on the other hand, could not be tolerated. The Emperor is the State and heresy was treason and treason was heresy and both are punished in the ways dictated by the Emperor in the Teachings.
These metal constructions whose job ranged from carrying missiles to lobbying shells to catapulting aircraft all carried out the tough job of suppressing heresy and to defend against heathenism. What was the energy of these engineers compared to the energy of the merchants and entertainers in the heart of the city? Their energy came from devotion to the Emperor and disgust of the foreign taint of the Formation.
"Commander Ortiz!" Ortiz turned around and stamped out the cigarette he didn't know he had been smoking. The Emperor didn't forbid them but he emphasized the dangers of the habit. Stamping out cigarettes became as much of a habit as lighting them were. Castro held out his smart phone. "The heathens go the UN to try to embargo our nation."
Ortiz sighed, "They are nothing but heathens and foolish ones. I very much doubt anyone will come to the defense of Formatics."
Castro looked at the crushed cigarette, "I supposed not. You have an extra?" Ortiz nodded, pulled out a box, and offered a cigarette to Castro whose lighter was up to the cigarette in an instant. He lit the cigarette then grabbed it from Ortiz. Inhaled, exhaled. "The AOZ embargoed the Formatics who responded in kind. Clearly, the Emperor works in mysterious ways and his wise judgement is being emulated by others and-huh? The Emperor is making a statement!"
And suddenly, the energy in the docks and in the city became one. One of spiritual connection the Emperor as his words rolled over the masses from loudspeakers, television sets, radios, cell phones, and more.
"The ability to read is something to be treasured. The ideas of Formaticism makes reading painful. Reading is painful to barbarians. Therefore, the Formatics are attempting to sabotage our culture and disrupt our proud culture or literacy and education as well as threaten our economic livelihoods. It is for this reason that the Soldier-Inquisition is currently working around the clock to deal swiftly and decisively with this internal heresy. I have spoken and my spoken word is law. Have a good evening, Setting Sun."

Eisenhower: RSA, Reunited States of America. You know, the heirs the people who sent us here? And we are a Military Occupation Zone. How in the world is the military going to occupy land if they can't control the land in the first place. And I would like you to know we are making plans to set up a democratic state after we get things settled down here.
MacArthur: Dwight, are you so sure that we need democracy?
Eisenhower: Yes.
MacArthur: We'll see about that.

Sorry. We'll remove you from the world-wide embargo proposal, however, we will keep our local embargo on you until you unembargo us. Sorry.

"Work has set me free. Praise be to the Emperor."
Johnathan "Bear" Grill, Soldier-Inquisitor, inspected the life form in front of him. Blisters on her hands, clothes gray and wet from the rain, dirty hair. To the lesser-trained soldier, she would appeared to have been broken by the labor. The heretics worked day and night on the building of the coastal defenses and infrastructure. Work has slowed a bit because of the rains but not too much.
But her eyes still showed resistance and strength.
"That is good. Get back to work." He waved her out of his office. The light in her eyes flickered and despair showed in face for instant before she turned and left, closing the door quickly. Bear smiled in smug satisfaction. "Shifty bastards."
The heresy and smoldering rebellion was crushed and the costs of the small rebellion was being extracted from the blood of the heretics gathered up across the Setting Sun. Infrastructure, infrastructure, military stuff, infrastructure. In a few years, Cuba will be crisscrossed with mag-level railroads, highways, and paved roads along with new airports, expanded dockyards, and hardier coastal defenses.
As for the children....
They will be the most loyal, the most fanatical of the Soldier-Inquisition. Years of indoctrination and training from the time they're still young and malleable to the time they are of fighting age will see to that.
