  1. The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, worker and Hollywood, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary reconstitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes. In the earlier epochs of history, we find almost everywhere a complicated arrangement of society into various orders, a manifold gradation of social rank. In ancient Rome we have patricians, knights, plebeians, slaves; in the Middle Ages, feudal lords, vassals, guild-masters, journeymen, apprentices, serfs; in almost all of these classes, again, subordinate gradations. The modern bourgeois Hollywood society that has sprouted from the ruins of feudal society has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new classes, new conditions of oppression, new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. Our epoch, the epoch of bourgeois Hollywood, possesses, however, this distinct feature: it has simplified class antagonisms. Society as a whole is more and more splitting up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other — Hollywood and Proletariat. From the serfs of the Middle Ages sprang the chartered burghers of the earliest towns. From these burgesses the first elements of the bourgeoisie were developed. The discovery of America, the rounding of the Cape, opened up fresh ground for the rising bourgeoisie. The East-Indian and Chinese markets, the colonisation of America, trade with the colonies, the increase in the means of exchange and in commodities generally, gave to commerce, to navigation, to industry, an impulse never before known, and thereby, to the revolutionary element in the tottering feudal society, a rapid development. The feudal system of industry, in which industrial production was monopolised by closed guilds, now no longer sufficed for the growing wants of the new markets. The manufacturing system took its place. The guild-masters were pushed on one side by the manufacturing middle class; division of labour between the different corporate guilds vanished in the face of division of labour in each single workshop. Meantime the markets kept ever growing, the demand ever rising. Even manufacturer no longer sufficed. Thereupon, steam and machinery revolutionised industrial production. The place of manufacture was taken by the giant, Modern Industry; the place of the industrial middle class by industrial millionaires, the leaders of the whole industrial armies, the modern bourgeois. The modern Hollywood. For too long Hollywood has gripped the world with its claws, oppressing those who dare stand up and face them. For too long we, Advanced Syndicalist Mechanics, have stood by while the workers of the world suffer. That ends today. In solidarity with the workers of Hollywood, we are proceeding with taking actions to support the workers in their struggle and fight against the bourgeoisie, Hollywood.

  2. how are you guys more heated about sphinx being a war dodger than the fact that KT is still full of white nationalists and white nationalist sympathizers, or are we just forgetting everything they’ve done over the years
  3. i really have no idea how one of the most awful, bigoted, alliances became "haha funny crusade man!" it's honestly really disgusting behavior and i did, to an extent, expect better from some of you

      What do you expect people to do about KT? Don't you think it should be a game moderation issue?

      They got Shifty. Wherever Shifty goes, it becomes dank. Such is the rule of nature and GOD.

      I'm like the Ark of the Covenant, except I don't hide in a box. I think outside it, yo.

  4. wish you had this same energy when your own members put war declarations threatening to lynch Queen M and when you yourself put a 1488 bounty on her nation
  5. yeah if we really wanted to be a good ally we should have shut our mouth and hung them out to dry
  6. only in 2020 are people considering tfp a “decent alliance”...lmfao can i have what these people are smoking?
  7. threatening to post logs and then not posting them is very cringe and should stop

      I have to agree with hope on that one :-p.

      I've been pretty clear about what logs I have. What I don't have, what's been admitted and what hasn't been. I suggest you review my posts and specify what you'd like me to follow up on.

      All I know is that at first, you were saying things like "Don't make me drop the logs!". Then people asked you to please do so. Then you said something like "You don't consider my feelings" or something, suggesting you had backtracked and no longer wanted to drop the logs. Anyway, only you know how many logs on the war you started with and how many (if any) that you haven't dropped yet. 

  8. Also just had this happen to me. 5 ground attacks done against me in 5 minutes. war timeline here: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/war/timeline/war=778228
  9. next time ill write out the CB in big letters and mail it to you weeks in advance so you can understand it crystal clear
  10. i get this but this is such a bizarre moralistic complaint. it essentially boils down to "we didnt do anything wrong and these three spheres are bullying us for no reason". not gonna lie i personally have beef with more than half of the alliances in our coalition for one reason or another so some shit really had to go down for all of us to join attack you. and, i can assure you, it wasnt just because we have it out for you and t$
  11. so you plotted something, it backfired, and now you claim to be a victim because people wanted to go to war over it?
  12. left side - one sphere right side - three spheres
  13. by what standard hun? even if they didnt know me (they do) it’s better than being known as the clown alliance who posts RoH’s in response to Arrgh raids or as the alliance that got utterly BTFO’d by GOONS that one time
  14. so many people in this game deserve to get bullied so hard lmao

    1. Shantaezeonna

      Shantaezeonna

      No one deserved to be bullied.

      Comrade Joe

      Mainly you. 

       

      Love you 

       

      Sort of 

  15. glad we've established the real reason doesnt matter whether you care or not, the cost remains the same your point here is really weird and it doesnt really make sense. all of these alliances have been around longer, have had more experience and have more prestige. they don't need to go to war every 3-6 months to remain good at the game. they already have all the skills they need to succeed. not only that but rose has been fighting raiders for months and im sure the others have been as well idk i dont stalk their war page. why do you think rose never posted an roh on the forums on arrgh? because they arent clowns and they dont need to remind everyone of their presence because they're GOOD and people respect them yeah most of orbis is dumb dont waste your breathe.
  16. how i feel whenever a clown posts on the forums 

     

  17. this thread is so fricking pathetic. clowns, all of you. aku is right in that these types of “wars” can hurt arrgh but we’re talking about competency and im not really sure if tle fits that? idk i dont follow them. arrgh is also right in that it still hurts to sit on a bunch of nations that barely have anything to hit so... tle will give up in a couple weeks or so and then everyone will move on. making this thread was pointless though, nobody cares
  18. how do i delete someone else’s post
  19. oh...you guys were being serious...when you posted this announcement...
  20. Imagine posting...an alliance announcement...because you are....declaring war on Arrgh...in 2020...

  21. “i will make my alliance sell to 800 infra across the board to sit on arrgh because im just that petty” but u wouldnt tho...
