Ultimately despite how funny I think this is, I'm against. Mainly because of the author, but also because the resolution is trash.

EDIT: Actually no. The MAIN reason is because you used the expression "this august body" which is just so awful honestly

Kuriko, that was an if the vote started trending against, not a current note. If it wins, ok. If it fails, it should be a big fail.

I'm opposed. The resolution isn't particularly well written, and I'm against giving fascists badges (particularly when this Condemn seems to be just a retaliation). Maybe LD does deserve to be Condemned, but it should be a well researched resolution that takes into account all their achievements.

Pretty much this. Condemn must be coming from someone neutral. Opposed.

Thing is, as funny as it is to have a resolution on the books (however briefly) that perfectly captures someone retaliating in a tit for tat manner after their region is liberated, it is a really bad resolution and only really manages to be funny unintentonally.

I dunno. Do we actually want this on the books, even if only for a week or so?

Exactly what I was thinking. Also, won't it be permanently archived, even if it is repealed?

In your opinion, ambassador. Other esteemed delegates have dubbed this resolution very well written. From our perspective, though, it's just a resolution.

This situation is, frankly, ridiculous, but Ravendi has deep concerns regarding the liberations mentioned in this resolution. In this matter, then, we find it prudent to vote FOR, in solidarity with our regional delegate the Loligarch.

Please, enlighten us to the names of said delegates? Most of the big delegates, and regions, think this resolution is pretty much trash.

It will be, but that's good. The author's badge will also be permanent , which is what finally got me off the fence into the against camp.
