Region: Spiritus
To the why question:
Because those systems can easily crush the opt-out systems.
With opt-out systems you'll have a large amount of small groups in long-term cases.
A non-opt-out system only needs to be stronger than one of those sub-groups to conquer/kill/enslave/etc the sub-group.
Division breeds weakness.
There are few opt-out systems simply because the non-opt-out alternatives are more successful.
Strength in numbers should not be underestimated.
To the freedom buzzword comment:
And how more people you live with, how more one needs to compromise.
You're basically sacrificing freedom to be able to function in society.
You could use the "I can do whatever I want approach".
But then you have to live with the fact that society might dissagree.
Many have tried to fight the system. Few succeeded.
The question one needs to ask himself is if freedom is worth the risk of failure.
Most people simply believe it isn't.

Sorry, [nation=short]Salaxalans[/nation].
Here I went posting a wall of text. Again.
I didn't mean to.
It just happened.

That's not a wall, more of a short fence. :P

Huzzah!

Hey, at least you had a lot of substance to it and it wasn't some sort of self-congratulatory RP post. If only the RMB was more like this.
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Statens
Agreed!
That self-cybering & buddy-love sh*t was a f*cking nightmare to behold.

Make that 454 people against.
Classmates, friends, and community.

They look down on poor capitalization.
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea
They don't count, it is citizens of spiritus only, and they have to vote for themselves; no proxy voting.
Good thing I have good capitalization.

I think it will be safer if you leave that under a tree.

True.
Under a tree right.
So I sent you a letter to Làponie about getting Guard de Marins.

Well . . .
No need to run over Grandma with your reindeer.
Jay-Zee-Jay already deaded her and she's now with the Jedi-Zombi horde.
Don't go visiting [nation=short]the grumpy grandpa[/nation] with any Christmas cheer 'cos you'll get SHOT if you land your sleigh . . .

My Christmas wish is to bring peace & happiness to Spiritus, and goodwill to all potatoes & potato lovers everywhere!
Thanks, Santa.

THAT'S a good Christmas wish!

A good wish, and with less people who want to cause war in spiritus it may even be possible. I hope that maybe spiritus will become a peaceful land full of joy and good wishes.

Huzzah!
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, Parrona, Jolly Old St Nicholas
Yeah, waiting for a red-dressed figure that supports the corporate world,
keeps track of all your actions,
found ways to deliver "payloads" around the world with a sleigh and reindeer in ONE single day,
has the funds to acquire these payloads,
is an old guy who gives "presents" to children,
employs slave labor,
claimed the north pole and the world has to "accept it".
The worst part is that he doesn't even leave a trail.
Unless he wants to.
He enters your house and you don't even notice it.
He could be behind you. Right now.
Even if he isn't he's watching. Always watching.
-
Santa Clause is clearly an eldritch abomination.
Combine this with his "big brother"-habits and his questionable morals and corporate connections and our high tech level, there's only one conclusion.
Santa is a lovecraftian evil corporate overlord.
Which means gods and cyberpunk aren't dead.
It only seems that way because we're so used to them, introdoctinated from a young age to accept the horrible truth as "normal".
Or people simply don't think about what they tell small children, because they're too stupid to understand the horrible implications.
I'm not sure which of the two would be the most cynical...

Look at Jolly_Old_St_Nicholas, your wonderful analysis appears to be true - "Santa" is a Fascist Police State...
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Jolly Old St Nicholas
Right, we have our Tiny [nation=short]Tim-opolis[/nation]...
We have a resident Scrooge; [nation=short]The Grumpy Grandpa[/nation]...

Matrixulated, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Russinadia
Is his birtday celebrated on 25 december?
Matrixulated, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Russinadia
Read a book! Santa clause is a magical apparition caused from eating fly amanita. The reason that our Santa is here is because a certain alien overlord must've spiked our potatoes.
*looks at the salaxatans*
Non zombie Jesus wasn't even born on December 25. The day was set for Jesus' birth by the Catholic Church so that people celebrating the other holiday on the same day would get drunk for Jesus. A very noble cause.
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, The Pie Islands, Jolly Old St Nicholas
But... I didn't eat those...
*DUN DUUUN DUUUUUUN*
Matrixulated, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Russinadia
I think I spiked the potatoes.........................but I don't remember doing it.
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Russinadia
Three words: long range injection. Our WA delegate is very resourceful.
I bet it was salaxalans, you probably would remember putting bright red mushrooms into literal tons of potatoes.
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Parrona
Nah.......... I think I injected..........something into the potatoes.
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Russinadia
Probably something, I don't know about the mushrooms though. Maybe tracking beacons, or candy, or even tiny explosives.
Matrixulated, Alekseandrea, Parrona
I swear it was liquid..........
Matrixulated, Russinadia
Maybe it was melted heroin, or ethanol, or even dihydrogen oxide.

The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Jolly Old St Nicholas
The world we live in IS cyberpunk.
You're distracted by shiny new technologies, there's a constant flux in everything, war as a business creates more war for more business, chaos is making its way through the world and Gibsonesque megacorps are only a step away from reality.
The only thing we don't have is the aesthetics. Somehow that passed us all by.

Matrixulated
Don't give up on it yet.
It's coming.
A consensual hallucination is only around the corner, my friend.
As for Spudly, while other kids his age got 'Harry Potter' books from their Uncles, he got Gibson's 'Sprawl Trilogy,' the 'Burning Chrome: Short Stories Collection' and the 'Bridge Trilogy' from me, and 'Mirrorshades' amongst others.
And behold!

Matrixulated, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud
I heard from my daughter, back in her grade school days, that when the fledgling US of A were deciding on a native tongue, English won the day by one vote over French as the language of the realm!
Really?
One stinking vote?
Merde! Mon Dieu!

The Salaxalans, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, Alekseandrea, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Parrona, Jolly Old St Nicholas
True!Down with english!
Vive le Sacre Langue!
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Parrona
Wouldn't a simpler language that is easy to learn and use be better?
For some reason people tend to hide intelligence tests in their languages.
While this has uses, one can't help feeling that the sacrificed efficiency might not be worth it.
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus, The Botched Pejazzle Of The Studly Spud, Cyrtes
What I understand from you is that English is easier than French.
bahahahahahhahahahaha
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated
If your first language is French, French will be easier than English.
Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus
I was talking about A simpler language.
Whether English fits this description is none of my concern.
The Salaxalans, Matrixulated, The Jedi-Zombi Jezus
Chineese is easier than both of these.

Right, I'm off! It's already Christmas in Australia - Better dash!!

From what I've heard from anyone trying to learn English, it is the worst language to try to learn. Basically, the only way you can learn English easily without using a few years of your life is to be born into an English speaking family.
