[DEFEATED] Condemn the Invaders

Postby Eostitorie » Sun Oct 16, 2016 11:18 am

Description: The Security Council,

Recognizing The Invaders as a large and infamous raiding organization that enjoys bringing their reign of terror to innocent regions,

Horrified that The Invaders have raided many native communities with the intention of destroying them including:

-Social Liberal Union

-California

-Russia

-Zentari

-Sweden

-Warzone Airspace

-Singapore

-The North American Union

-Ireland

Dismayed that The Invaders go beyond conventional raiding and have infiltrated this august body itself in order to promote its destructive ways,

Appalled that The Invaders are part of an organization known as The Invader Network, which means that the ideology of The Invaders is spreading across the world at a very fast pace,

Resolving that the World Assembly should condemn the form of raiding The Invaders perpetuate,

Hereby condemns The Invaders.

This has been submitted to the SC and has reach quorum. Put it here for discussion because, to me, it looks like a self condemnation at its best. A brand spanking new nation writing a condemnation that perfectly makes site rules without any drafting? I don't think so.

Description: The Security Council,

Recognizing The Invaders as a large and infamous raiding organization that enjoys bringing their reign of terror to innocent regions,

Horrified that The Invaders have raided many native communities with the intention of destroying them including:

According to the logic of this clause, we should just condemn TI because they wanted to destroy regions, in spite of the list it then gives showing that they are O for 9 when it comes to actually doing this. To clarify, it is specifically the wording of this clause that is stupid. The typical "they were mean to the natives in" or whatever would have sufficed.
-Social Liberal Union

-California

-Russia

-Zentari

-Sweden

-Warzone Airspace

Edit: Almost forgot: Warzones were specifically created so they could be raided, therefore raiding a Warzone is not a condemnable action. It's like saying being sent to the Rejected Realms is grounds for a DEAT.
-Singapore

-The North American Union

-Ireland

9 out of the 15 times the Enter Key was pushed when writing this proposal, it was just for this stupid list. If there was some additional information to go along with each of these it would be a little less annoying.
Dismayed that The Invaders go beyond conventional raiding and have infiltrated this august body itself in order to promote its destructive ways,

But... they were unsuccessful... they also did a bad job.
Appalled that The Invaders are part of an organization known as The Invader Network, which means that the ideology of The Invaders is spreading across the world at a very fast pace,

TIN has grown by like... 1 region in the few months that it has existed (correct me if I'm wrong on that). And then that same region pulled out of TIN a few days ago.

Even assuming that TIN was growing rapidly, this clause makes 0 sense. How does TI being in TIN mean that their ideology is spreading? That just straight up doesn't make sense, speaking solely in regards to cause and effect. There is no link between the supposed cause and the supposed effect.
Resolving that the World Assembly should condemn the form of raiding The Invaders perpetuate,

What form? Occupations? It is never actually explained what this clause means.
Hereby condemns The Invaders.

"Condemns" should be capitalized.

Overall, this lacks in substance and in merit. There are actually a few rather silly logical fallacies scattered throughout as well.

This looks like TI trying to game the SC once again with a self-condemnation. Took this copy of the author's history when I saw this in the queue.
2 days 18 hours ago: 800 was admitted to the World Assembly.
2 days 18 hours ago: 800 applied to join the World Assembly.
2 days 18 hours ago: Following new legislation in 800, chickens roam the streets freely.
2 days 18 hours ago: Following new legislation in 800, the government is reining in public spending.
2 days 18 hours ago: Following new legislation in 800, the tenet of free speech is held dear.
2 days 18 hours ago: Following new legislation in 800, voting is voluntary.
2 days 18 hours ago: 800 was founded in The East Pacific.

So a new nation tarts, gets enough endos to submit a resolution and then submits a legal one - not suspicious at all.

Oh and has a fairly extensive knowledge of TI's raids. Of course it's a TI puppet.

Anyways, this proposal lines up too much with the previous failed SC proposal. Putting these claims together, I can tell that I will be against this.

It makes no difference to me whether the Invaders would like to be condemned or not. The question is simply, should the Security Council condemn them? I think so.

I agree completely. They can wear their condemnation as a badge of pride if they wish, but the rest of the community will know what it means when they see it on The Invaders' region.

Wow, the Invaders are really pulling out all the stops to make themselves famous.

I'm not even joking, you could literally take the text from this proposal and paste it into their WFE and it would not be out of place in the slightest. It's almost an advertisement at this point.

Of course you guys would vote against it. Can't be too suspicious and the newbies in TI don't know what a condemnation means.
