It's disappointing to see The Rejected Times propagandizing for the NPO against regions that are actually friendly to the Rejected Realms with that cartoon.

When I displayed the same attitude towards all the anti-NPO groups nobody (not even Cormac) reacted this way and everyone knows that if Cormac had felt that way when I did it he would have said it. So I'm not even sure his response here is genuine really. I don't recall you reacting that way either. What makes Manson displaying the same attitude now so different?

The NPO and APC both have used and continue to use "meme" images and remarks, similar to Manson's image, in their competing propaganda efforts. To put it simply, CoS, your style of commentary on events doesn't fit the style of propaganda we have seen coming out of this conflict. Manson's does.
I hope that clarifies some things.

So his method pokes fun at you guys and that makes it propaganda?

I think you are simply reading into it too much.Cormactopia Prime wrote:As to what makes you different from him, it's simple.

I think you have misinterpreted the purpose of his cartoon. Since the drafting phase of this latest issue of TRT I myself have been under the impression that his purpose was to convey the same message I did, with a more humorous and entertaining approach. I can't attest to his experiences in or reasoning for going to Azhukali in the first place but he has joked on and off about couping regions for quite some time. That's all it is though, a joke. He's not the first NSer to joke about couping a region. I'm fairly certain that you've done just that several times in the past.

It is also flawed. In that cartoon, the Mouse is usually the running winner, and the Cat the running loser. Not to mention being muscle-bound reduces mobility, meaning the Mouse can easily outpace or dodge, which is what the character would do in this situation.Lord Dominator wrote:I only thought the cartoon was rather odd/in weird taste

So if the goal was to imply that somehow the NPO would be better off, and the opposition small and ineffective, it was a fail on both counts. The moral of this story is to make sure you learn about the cartoon characters you use to make a point.
