NEW OPPRESSIVE MEASURES STARK REMINDER OF THE BRUTALITY OF THE PANTOCRATORIAN STATE
Sandra Worthy, Liberty Times
As the academic year begins, civics teachers and homeschool parents seeking to introduce the next generation to the dangers of out-of-control government need only look at Pantocratoria for an example. The country has never been a civil rights leader - in Pantocratoria, female land holders can have their legal minority extended indefinitely (until their marriage naturally) at the discretion of their legal guardians. But even for a country where a young woman unlucky enough to own land can be considered legally a child until the age of fifty, the Pantocratorians never cease to amaze us.
The most recent act of Pantocratorian insanity was designated, the Public Schools Act Amendment 2011 (the full title, for those of you interested in Pantocratorian 'law', is 'An Act to Amend the Act known as The Public Schools Act so as to Require Certain Reforms to the Dress and Conduct of Pupils and Teachers'). It of course comes up with the usual oppression we have come to expect from public-schooling systems - school uniforms, prohibitions on public displays of affection between pupils (as of press time, we are not clear if this will be only enforced on school grounds).
Moreover, school classes will be forced to segregate pupils by gender, redesign school classes to include items such as crosses and portraits of the Emperor, and so on, and so forth. However, the most terrible notion of this program was "at risk programs" for various students, including transgender, sexually active, and even the depressed. These programs, of course, turned out to be exactly what the reader already imagines - compulsory 'boot camp' prorams for those students classified as 'at-risk'.
The second shoe had now dropped. Hundreds of young men and women are being arrested in Pantocratoria on charges of child pornography - in Pantocratoria, this stands for distributing sexual images... of themselves. No pedophile rings with children locked up in basements here - simply take a picture of yourself and it's handcuffs time. Worse yet, the Pantocratorian enforcement program is biased against young girls and the poor. Already there is discussion of sentencing, of trials, etc. - but it is likely now that the young men and women of Pantocratoria will experience the same boot camps.
At press time, the Department of State has made the following statement on the situation in Pantocratoria: "We are closely following and monitoring the situation. Let us be clear: the United States of Allanea condemns all forms of censorship. Putting a man or woman in prison - even for a single day - for making a photograph of their own body is never morally acceptable. Putting people in camps - even if they are called 'boot camps' or 'health camps' or 'joy camps' over the content of their speech is morally wrong. While we call on the Pantocratorian legislature to abolish these oppressive laws, we realize this is unlikely to happen.
Therefore, we would like to make the following statement to any Pantocratorians who are threatened by these laws, or who have participated in sexting activities, or are under threat of being placed in any of the 'at risk programs' for transgender or sexually active students: as of this moment, the Department of State is authorizing a refugee status for a limited amount of Pantocratorians who are under the threat of state persecution. We wish to remind you also that Allanea recognizes a state of maturity beginning with the age of sixteen (for homo sapiens sapiens), and also allows earlier recognition of maturity in certain cases. This is equal for both male and female Pantocratorians, as well as Pantocratorians of any other gender.
We call on the world community to condemn the behavior of the Pantocratorian authorities, and can only express our sincere hope hope that one day, all Pantocratorians will be free."
Perhaps one day they will. But today is not that day.
