[Draft] Ban on Facts

Postby Lexicor » Mon Aug 14, 2017 5:41 pm

Ban on Facts
Category: Civil Rights
Strength: Insignificant


The World Assembly,

Observing that the nature of truth is subjective, there is nothing objective our Assembly must decree,

Further observing that nothing really matters, anyone can see, nothing really matters to thee,

Aware of the prevalence of frog like image macros, often accompanied by a hearty "Reeee",

Realizing that the time to liberate lying and spin has come to pass, to equal truths being set free,

Believing that the importance of logic, reason and evidence to be but a distant, fading memory,

This most auspicious and august Assembly herby allows the following things to come and be,

1. Requires nations to present unproven conspiracy theories, tautologies and appeals to emotion as though they are facts,

2. Bans any attempt at civil discourse and exchange of ideas and hereby declares any and all attempts to do so as criminal acts,

3. Mandates all nations cease voting on and responding to proposal- instead requiring Ambassadors respond with only angry reacts,

4. All nations shall abide by this ban on facts, until such a day where [Violet] willing; the Duckspeaker quacks.


EDITS: I tried to spell but instead by the inability to do so, I did get a smack.

"The less one knows about the Civil War the more likely one is to think the North fought to free the slaves."
"As hours worked by an individual approaches zero, the probability of engagement in political activism approaches one."
"As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of the mention of inter-sectional group identities approaches one."

I find it amusing how quickly the string of egg puns turned to ones based on bird eggs, that are completely inapplicable to human ova.

(Actually, I know that the WA sometimes tries to acknowledge nonhuman species in its resolutions. Has any legislation been made on the reproductive rights of egg-layers?)

Tautologies are already facts, they're just useless facts.

Also, if you have to treat unproven conspiracy theories and appeals to emotion as facts, does that mean they're banned too?

Actually, where do you even ban facts? Being required to promote falsehoods is not the same as being forbidden to promote truths. (But then, this is a fact, so I'm not allowed to say it...)

GENERAL ASSEMBLY

The Antiquities Act
A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.

Category: Education and Creativity | Area of Effect: Cultural Heritage | Proposed by: Sanctaria


The General Assembly,

BELIEVING that individual nations have unique cultures, histories, and peoples,

DESIROUS that all members of the World Assembly should get an opportunity to enjoy the cultural heritages of its fellow member states

REQUIRES all member states to submit NUDES to the I,WANT-NUDES;

DEMANDS that individuals have the right to view these NUDES free of charge, and without any hindrance;

ENCOURAGES that examples of the NUDES go on a tour across the World Assembly member nation states so that all children get an opportunity to engage with, and learn from, the NUDES;

EMPHASISES that the NUDES be looked at, but not touched;

ALLOWS for copies of the NUDES to be made, on the condition that the original NUDES are not damaged or compromised in any way;

FORBIDS nations to destroy any NUDES they might believe to be unattractive or unwanted;

CLARIFIES that NUDES should only be sent to the I,WANT-NUDES and not to any other nation state.

Equal Freedom to Equally Free Equality

Category: Human Rights
Strength: Freely Equal



Regognizing that not all nations free equality with equal freedom,

Also Regognizing the inherent un-freeness anti-equality of this oppressive inequality between member-states,

Still Regognizing that this constitutes a non-free counter-equality within the free societies of equal member-states,

Resolving that, having regognized the abhorrently atrocious and simply awful negative-freedom within member-states that maintain a system of inversely-equal nonequality, it is within the freely-equal goals of this assembly and its equally-free powers as upheld by the member-states, to therefore thus and henceforth, with the power vested within this assembly by its free assembly of member-states of equal power in freedom and equality, and with the legitimacy implied in their free membership within this equal assembly;

  1. Frees all equal freedoms within member-states,
  2. Equals all free equalities within member-states,
  3. Legalizes free equalities and equal freedoms within all jurisdictions of member-states in equal and free measure,
  4. Prohibits un-free and anti-equal and non-free counter-equal inverse-equalities in negative freedom in all member-states,

Therefore this equal assembly, with the authority of the equal member-states of this free assembly, assembled in free equality, pledges and promises to enact and undertake with freedom the equal clauses of this legislation, with the implied consent of the member-states and the authoritative legitimacy and legitimate authority of their freely equal membership within this august assembly, with regognition of the equally legitimate free authorities of the member-states of this assembly, hereby, resolves to free the above clauses equally.

Actually only partly joke, but would have a less than 0% chance of passing. So, Joke
International Handmaid Act

Observing that birth numbers are dropping all around the world.
Believing that something must be done about this.
Using as an example the story of Rachael and Leah in Genesis 30.
Mandates that all member nations create a handmaid system, comprised of unmarried, fertile women who have committed crimes.
Mandates that these handmaids be posted to the homes of the leaders of member nations, so the population may be raised.

Extending the hand of friendship to anyone who would actually support this.
If I submitted this, I would give it a 50% chance of getting one approval, from my regional delegate. About a 5% chance of a second. 1% of a third. (I'm not planning too, unless I get overwhelming support here ;))
Before jumping to conclusions, look at my FAQ fact book. FAQ here:FAQ Ask Questions Here
Proudly violating WA resolutions since May 25, 2017! Visit The Republic of Gilead!
( -_- ) My nation does support my political views...deal with it.
"Under His Eye" is a blessing. It's asking God to keep them under His eye.
