[Rex Replies] I Just Wanna Dance, Rory!
Sir Rex Fleddington
Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, I'm back in your room. Let's spend the night together, with you accusing me of sinister misgivings.

Yes that's right you McCarthyites and, you too, you Trots. Welcome back to a new upgraded version of the Rex show! With a new cast and a new lease on life!
Well then, what am I writing about today you may ask? is it the history of Mozambique, is it a Comrade Dogs comic, at this point would I be open to creating a new OP such as the Evil Villain Analysis?
No, we are maintaining Rex Replies as a way of replying to people through the medium of articles(regardless of their beliefs). This time we are looking at how we can improve PUP.
First, let's look at this post by a fan of the show and lover of PUP. Bamber...
I agree Bamber, I too believe that killing millions of Nazi's is a thing that makes you cool. Keep up the good work at PUP, vPP.
Next, we have another veteran listener. Timmy...
Good point Timmy, I do see that leftism in eRep requires a level of responsebility on behalf of the government to maintain an unbiased and all-inclusive nature
Finally, we have a newcomer to the show. Sorry though, we don't allow anyone that isn't either me, Bamber, or Timmy. So here is a picture of me and some plastic leftists showing JamesW how to dance. You are welcome, PUP!
Once again I must close the show in a record amount of time. Let us remember that We're the only large party that entertain you here.
My Grandad always said, "ignoring assholes is high road, around here we take the low road"
Join PUP for a wide range of activity that doesn't revolve around dated IPs, and look out for exciting, new jokes that don't only rely on non-party members' activity ;P
Comments
Two points.
Firstly, Best PCP is not made up of Nazis. I'm personally an egalitarian, and probably would be classed as a classical liberal or possibly civil libertarian - a proponent of free speech, opposed to mass surveillance, large government or pretty much anything that authoritarian regimes such as could be found in Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia.
Secondly, Wormwood's original, from which the aforementioned cartoon is derived, is an observation on an attack by Antifa protesters on a disabled, wheelchair bound veteran.
Antics protestors did not attack a disabled, wheelchair bound veteran and if you believe that then you aren’t a classical liberal. Or maybe you are, Neville chamberlain was a classical liberal right?
Antifa
But they did.
I guess videos of a helmeted Antifa protester throwing water over said veteran are all fabricated, and all participants were actors, then...
Or the many instances of violence towards innocent bins, the numerous recorded instances of people being maced for wearing a particular hate. Funny Ole world we live in when the Anti-Fascists are more fascist then the actual fascists!
Oh no water, i know il just threaten to shoot someone for defending equality. I bet they can’t figure out that water is my only weakness. God Dave me if it rains. Aahhh I have been brutally assaulted by the sky! What a cruel world!
Regardless of the veteran's statements or threats, the act of throwing the water would probably classify as assault.
Antifa are just as bad as the far-right you claim to despise.
So you aren’t a Nazi, you are a Nazi sympathiser. I’m sure the anti fascists are not as bad as people calling for extermination of entire cultures.
Bamber get the water I’m going to assault pauly
I'm not sure antifa and "nazis" are worth much thought given that as soon as you go outside you realise that they're the tiniest proportion of their respective sides of the political spectrum.
How on earth do you make that remarkable judgement that I sympathise with the far-right?
"Antifa is bad" = Nazi sympathizer, Pauly. Did you forget you're arguing with a person who whitewashed USSR history?
But could anyone finally name the Nazis in our party and the reasons why are they Nazis???
And Antifa would probably be the first people to surrender in the case of a real war...
First on the battlefield, last to leave. Same people went to Spain for the civil war, I respect them for their effort to marginalise and repress fascists from speaking in public. Antifa have died for protesting for the rights of minorities.

Ok, now please answer my first question...
He can't answer it because he doesn't actually know or even want to know our individual political leanings. It's the same as RL, if you ain't on his side, you are a Nazi.
HuRting Nazis is all I care about, doesn’t matter what you are politically. If you defend Nazis then you are one. http://chromatism.net/current/images/seuss5.jpg
That sounds like something George W. Bush sai😛 "Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists." Replace terrorists with Nazis, and you have Rex.
Now this is more like the creed I prefer: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" - Evelyn Beatrice Hall.
I personally don't care of people say that I support Nazis, oh well, I can do whatever I want, I was extremely far right when I was younger, nowadays I don't care much about those things, though I still prefer white people and I'm happy that Eastern Europe doesn't have loads of non-Eurooean immigrants like the West (I lived in Leicester, that is too much for me) and so on... But what all of this has to do with eRepublik and my political party here?
Ok, we established that ON is a Nazi, but who are the others?
And I'm not even supporting it or promoting in the game, so I still don't have an idea who are those people Rex is talking about?
What Rex and the rest of the 'muh feelz' brigade won't ever understand is that over in the East/ex commie bloc,, they have lived a very different 20th century then we did over here. They have never actually had to sit and listen to an 86 year old woman telling her stories with tears streaming down her face. They have never had to face real danger, the greatest threat we face is Starbucks getting our coffee order wrong when we are already late for work...
If wanting to preserve the culture, the customs, the language and the land that my forefathers created and not allow it to be given up and spat on so easily is considered Nazi in this day and age, I guess I better start practicing my Goose Step! That's one thing I respect greatly about the ex Commie Bloc, you won't defeat them without a fight!
... and this is coming from a guy that voted Leave, has a East European Missus and idolizes black man music!
Hitler would be proud...
I feel like you haven't grown up at all in the 5+ years I have known you.
It's quite odd.
I just wanna dance, Zap.
To get the youtube video to work you only use the bit at the end of the link, the funky trash after "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v="
So in your case it's like
ok in your case it's not like anything cause erep in its wisdom hid my example.
fine
Honestly I don’t care, it’s just the vengaboys.
Yeah but for an article to work it can only pick one out of the following: being deliberately dumb or being incompetently done
You've done both, it's against the rules
Then I have hit my mark for annoying all aspects of reactionaries. Congrats me I guess, didn’t expecting to be that good and I shall maintain the style from here on out
"replying to people through the medium of articles(regardless of their beliefs)" - That's called propaganda.
As for the idea of keeping surplus labor, ha! The solution any manager can attest to, is that if there is surplus, the quota is too low. The farmers who toiled under the soviets, were starving everything going to the city. The socialist reward for sending everything to the city and going back after work to collect some missed scraps from the field to delay starving was death.
I have a lot of trouble with people waving the flag of a system that was a far greater killer of man than the oft decried 'Nazi'. At least Hitler focused on establishing who his enemies were, instead of making a slave class destined for death in the gulag from just about every group.
Sorry, focusing your attention on erasing an entire race from existence doesn't make you "better" than anyone as you seem to be suggesting.
There have been lots of horrendous acts carried out by humans on other humans. Some of them have been done by Communists, some by Nazis, some in the name of Christianity, some in the name of Islam. Some in the name of the British Empire. If you can think of an ideal, someone will come along and use it as a reason to be shitty to someone else. That doesn't mean the ideal is bad.
Yes of course, but, points that everyone can readily agree with make rhetoric not an argument. We also have trouble with the murder who kills a single person or the criminal who attempts to. My point is that it's insane we have a world where people react in the extreme to Nazi Germany (which did accomplish a number of objectives) Vs Communism (which has consistently failed). My annoyance here is the idea of the Che Guevara T-Shirt, the hammer and sickle as an icon of empowerment, whilst forgetting 14 Million Vs 94 Million. Every death counts, but I'm going to be far out and say the extra 80 million should make people more upset. So yes, the idea is bad, it's very very bad.
I have a rule about not discussing religion or politics on the internet. I disagree with a lot of your opinions, but I respect your right to hold them. Defending Hitler because "at least he picked a specific race to persecute", or because he "only" killed 14 million and did a good job of rebuilding Germany's economy (which he then used to produce bombs he could drop on the British civilian population)...that I can't respect. It's pretty clear at this point though that you're not going to let go of your belief that "Nazis aren't so bad because communism" so I'm going to leave it there.
It's not about who was worse. As you right state Jim, humans have dine terrible things to each other throughout the ages and will continue to do so. What people like me have an issue with is the pedestal that Communism is placed upon. Society rightly lambast Nazis, yet commies are considered cool and edgey. To me and I assume others, any totalitarian regime is considered bad and not what we require in this world.
Lost you at "At least Hitler..."
Why is jamesw a muslim on the last picture?
Cause I wanted to be the woman
