[DISCARDED] Repeal: "Ban on Secret Treaties"

[Bitely]

Gregory supports this on the simple fact that it's a repeal.

"Your position has all the nuance of a cudgel, ambassador. No more than we expected."

Thank you! But this is not my personal position. I serve at the pleasure of Prince Gregory and as I already stated he supports this repeal.

"Comprehension isn't your strong suit, I see."

I'm mostly confused about why you sent all delegates a telegram to remind them of their voting orders. What is this illuminati lizard government that can issue such orders?

The WA works in mysterious ways.

"Civility isn't useful enough to justify abandoning bare minimum standards of quality, ambassador."

"Not particularly. It works in fairly predictable ways."

Whereas such an alarming technique has already been used within the fourth clause of the resolution to establish an extraordinary redefinition of the words "secret treaty" to reference various felines and military weaponry,

I take it "felines" is supposed to mean felonies, not cats, right?

It referred to clause 4 in the target of the repeal, which stated:

The words 'secret treaty' and all variant capitalisations thereof, excluding pluralisations, shall mean military-grade weapons and feline animals of varying sizes with tabby coats.

I also noticed this. Seemed sort of shady.

"It was, quite possibly, the least subtle bit of reverse psychology I have seen outside of a cartoon. The delegation from Bitley clearly wanted to inspire a knee-jerk opposition. The ambassador hasn't yet realized that most of us believe in neither forgiveness nor forgetfulness."
