"You know why we think conservatism is cowardly? You don't go forward cos' you're scared, you keep to the past, and then you try to make a series of arguments to defend and justify your folly. That's total shit. Done."

"Our unicameral parliament has eight sub-branches, each branch acts like its own chamber. Each representing a different (often overlapping) constituency group or body. All eight factions must support a law with a clear majority for passage to occur. It's designed to cause gridlock, which isn't all that bad. The less legislation passed the National Council, the freer the populace."

- Han-Pïer Kent, current Speaker of the Council

"When we first landed on another world we were met by bloodthirsty savages. We forged our alliance with humanity in the ashes of an ancient evil. We have to face the facts. Our species will never escape the fires of war.

"God, I would think a robot would a tad bit more experienced in politics.

Conservatism means conservation. Progressiveness can be a tradition in a society, and conservatives in that society will be progressives due to that tradition that they will try to conserve.

Jesus Christ, not all conservatives are like Americans or Europeans!"


The Yorkshire Commonwealth wrote:
Bereia wrote:"Europe despises us because they are bitter, pure and simple. They view theirs as the natural ruling order, themselves the rightful masters of the world, and so hate any who dare refuse to bow."

-- Representative Jennifer H. C. Brunel.

"Nah... It's more all those innocent civilians you keep killing, and all the torture you keep doing, and all those 'Last, best hope for mankind,' style of quotes you still use, and the spying on friendly leaders, and the overthrowing of democratically elected foreign governments, and the undermining of developing economies, and the exploitative trade deals coercively imposed during famines..."

-Prime Minister Florimel Baines, on America


"As if any other nation is sunshine, gays, and and roses."

"Every time we invade and destroy a random nation, this plays for no reason and we don't really like it."


-Transhuman soldier commenting on a failed Singaporean technology, known as the "Victory Theme Autoplay System" that played a victory theme every time a battle is won according to calculations, that was de-serviced for its undesirable ridiculing of the Singaporean forces complained by officers.

It was, for some reason, used by the Arabs until 2080 when they realized the same problem.

"Agonocracy is Progressivism taken to its logical conclusions in all its nefarious aspects. Metaphysically and Ethically it reduces life to nothing but meaningless "progress", in any, nay, no, direction. Politically it is the ultimate expression of the total underminement of all tradition and political convention for the ruthless advantage of utilitaristic convenience and lunatic ambition."

"So, today ISIS attacked us. They managed to take out a Jackal but nobody died. We used the Deep Sonar Scanner and found the Treasonous dogs hidden in the mountains. After that? We fired a few Weedkiller Missiles into the mountain range, left it for a couple of hours and then dispersed neutralizer over the area to scrub it of the gas.
