Fantasy play, and imaginary friends and countries, are an important part of any childs development.

FedCom is no more a fantasy than Taiwan or Tibet, and no less real than any other nation on Earth. Just because the UN chooses not to officially "recognize" a nation, does not mean that such a nation is fake.

FedCom is real, our citizens are real, our government is real, and anyone who says otherwise is a liar and a moron.

Is it so hard to imagine starting a new country? Every nation currently on the map started in exactly the same way. FedCom is no different, and neither is any other aspirant state.

That is a delightful post and I agree with you and you're right about all that stuff.

I am not copying you.

If I had any such desire to do so, I would. However, you have given me no such reason to even consider copying anything you do.

Okay, crazy-pants. You're the one coming out of left field and going apeshit on me for no readily apparent reason. . . . :::backs away slowly:::

I just had a crazy thought, and I'm slowly becoming more convinced of it.

Is Terminator_484 a sock-puppet of Radar's?

Yabbut, seriously?

Tell me that's not a perfect imitation of Radar's rhetoric! And of course the topic is right up his alley.

Meanwhile, their posting times have been strongly correlated since Terminator joined. See all of Terminator's posting dates below:


Sept. 6th - Terminator posts intermittently from 8:43 to 10:22, with one random post from Radar in the middle at 9:34. Radar was previously on at 10:54 that morning, and other than that has not posted for two days prior, or four days after.

Sept. 22nd - Terminator posts at 7:07, then Radar gets on for his first post of several at 7:13.

Nov. 9th - Radar is on intermittently throughout the day, with a dense string of posts from 7:15 to 7:38. Then Terminator then starts posting at 7:41.


At this point, I'd bet cash money on it.


EDIT: Which is not to say I care, or want some sort of result if it turns out I'm right. (I do think it would be telling that even batshit-gungho-Libertarian Radar wouldn't want to admit to being a FedCom shill in front of us, but that's just amusing more than anything.) I'm just proud of my sleuthing, and couldn't help sharing, is all.

Done. *shakes*

But I don't think UT will feel obligated to check just because there's money on the line.

No, the 'laws' of their fairy-land are way too fascist for Radar to advertise. Smoking a cigarette will get you three years in a hard labour camp there. That is total bullshit.
