You know what? A person is important even if you don’t know them, like several people have made famous inventions and you might not know them.

I've spoken lightly here about the Lazarene Civil War, #MeToo, and the rise to prominence for the Rahl family. I think that brings us to the beginning of 2018. If I were to touch on some other stuff, it'd be the occupation of
St. Abbaddon, the "Sinkerism" movement that bubbled over in 2017 (monarchist, invader), WALL, and the brief revival of the War on Nazis under "CAIN." I see these as steps in a late stage Cold War that was nearing its exhaustion. Political participants turn to full-scale anti-fascism missions whenever they want to justify "third way" military cooperation - it just fits the needs of policymakers and politicians at the time and goes out of vogue when it doesn't. NPO's gunboat diplomacy in St. Abbaddon strained and tested partnerships. Political participants contextualize ideology to justify its application to specific regions ("Sinkerism"). And they make use the World Assembly as an avenue for cooperation and the consolidation of power.
Beyond 2017, I went from being hard-core retired (The Bruce style TM) to very hard-core retired. I'm not really an authority on anything post-2015 (just a distant observer), but I had some dots to connect.

I joke, of course. That's very interesting, Syberis. From an outsider, it looked like Sinkerism was an attempt to link Rachel's Balder, Osiris, and the Undead's Lazarus by a homogeneous movement. Invader and monarchist. Defending the characteristics as rational and specific to the needs of 'smaller' Game-Created Regions. I wasn't privy to the internal debate.

Syberis wrote:Defenderdom and fendaphobia is irrelevant to the original ideal of Sinkerism. The tl;dr of it is that the non-TRR sinkers (The term Phoenix Regions never really caught on) have the first responsibility to helping people that couldn't maintain interest the first time get back into the game. To do so, the governments need to be involved and removed of the selfish motivations that can run rampant within Sinkers. They don't inherently belong to anyone, but also aren't playgrounds for would-be coupers to gain cred.
