Stitcher Alexylva Paradox Low-Class 4027	Posted - 2014.09.29 15:12:00 - [1] - Quote Part of the problem here is that you seem to think we're fascists. We're not. The word has a correct technical meaning, it's not just a catch-all insult aimed at whole societies. Fascism, you see, hinges on a unified national state which wields immense power, which is the precise opposite of the Caldari corporate-meritocratic system. In the State (with an upper-case S) the state (with a small s) is weak and has only a few limited powers and sharply limited legal authority over the autonomous action of the State's (with an upper-case S) constituent corporations. So the State (big S) is not so much a state (small s) as it is a treaty organisation. It's a little bit mis-named, really. Not to mention confusing in conversations such as this. In case you hadn't noticed, our recent flirtation with ACTUAL fascism, where a political faction sought to unify and mobilize our people under a strong and central (small s) state actually ended with the fascists in question being declared enemies of the State (both in the big S and the small s sense) and driven out. So, no, Nennamaila was not, quote: "liberated from the fascists of the Caldari State" because: A: we're not fascists and B: because it's not "liberation" if we were the first ones to colonise that system. You can't liberate settlers from a government by which they consent to be governed, by imposing a government by which they do NOT consent to be governed. The very idea is contradictory. Liberation would require occupation and there was no prior indigenous settlement in Nennamaila (that I know of) for us to occupy. Technically, the Gallente are the occupiers and the system will only become "liberated" once it's back in Caldari hands. Now if you want to wholesale own that place, fine. We'll sell it to you for a fair price. You want to name it after a famous Intaki, go for it. You can call your property whatever you want, once it is your property. Butuntil a treaty is ratified ceding it to the Federation, Black Rise belongs to the Caldari, and to hell with any CONCORD act or starship GUI that says otherwise.

I couldn't be less in cahoots with the Sansha if I tried. And believe me, I'm trying. An in-character blog and a video: http://verinsjournal.blogspot.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu1mbsgo738

He defeated Gallenteans and returned us our home planet from greedy hands of gallentean occupants. While being Megacorp CEO, Executor and de-facto leader of the whole State, he himself lead ground attack on Caldari Prime against gallentean agressors. He has lost not against Gallente, he has lost to Sansha, and died with honor, like true Caldari officer and Patriot. You're omitting the part where he went crazy, associated openly with a banned terrorist organisation, rode roughshod over the very Caldari laws and traditions he had sworn to uphold, ordered the Homeworld be destroyed, murdered the woman who refused that order, was declared an enemy of the State, invaded megacorporate territory, abandoned his men after being wounded in a shootout with the Navy, and fled into lowsec.

This is a good example of why your proposal is irking people. Just like it is rather egotistical to assume you and yours speak for the entirety of the FDU, it is also rather egotistical to start arbitrarily deciding to rename planets. It's either a distasteful form of nationalism or it's egos run amok. Both are something worth being irked by. Not really worth being irked about. An eye roll and a scoff maby, but this isn't full on irk-worthy until the proposal is on the Senate floor. You may be overestimating the severity of an 'irk.' Well below anger or frustration, but enough to be embarrassed by a fellow citizen. Out of interest, what's the exchange rate here? How many irks to the peeve? How many Irks does it take to rustle a jimmy? An in-character blog and a video: http://verinsjournal.blogspot.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu1mbsgo738
