Evan Reds and Me, A little Claret

*Bastille* Raging Scavengers Darkwind Guru Evan Reds Faction Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 7,513 Joined: Mar 31, 2009 Howdy all, It has come to my attention, a small misconception with my faction seems to be floating about. I would like to rectify that Evan Reds: A left-wing faction who believe that the New Order does not have to be capitalist and that equality is achievable. As far as I read this, it is not indicating that Reds are communists or Nazis. Yes we do believe in and element of social justice as I believe most of us do in the Western world. Its what makes countries like Australia, The Greater Britain as a whole and the United States of America, great places to live, where we feed the poor and help the sick. Freak Scene: Long-haired 80s throwbacks with feedback-laden pop blaring out of their speakers as they chase you Bohemian Like You: A ragtag bunch of hippy traders from the North Badlands region, these guys drive surprisingly well despite the noxious clouds of intoxicants spilling out of their gunnery slits Dune Peddlers: An eclectic group of traders that cater to camps and the small villages that crop up near factories. Northern Desert Co-Operative: Transporting food produce at cost-price to the Truckstops, and sometimes hardware in the opposite direction. The Scarlet Outriders: A tough bunch of Evan Reds who bring the fight to the door of the Slaver Pit. F-A-S (Free All Slavers): A group from the Evan Reds faction, sworn to bring down the slavery operations in Firelight Bastille and the Raging Scavengers: A symbol of Hope, freedom and revolution. Equality, Liberty and Justice for all Red(Simply a colour)>Claret (Wine from France)>chateau le Bastille (Symbol for revolution)>The Reds Symbol (yes its a Red Star, thats about as close to the perceived misconceived definition as I get) As for me, the person: My Dad was born in Czechoslovakia and suffered much as a child in Nazi Germany, and then the Red army in East Germany until he jumped the fence and managed to flee here to Australia. He has brought me up to believe in caring for those around me. I donate much of my time caring for disabled (my cousin is severely handicapped since 2 when he had a terrible accident. He is now 41 and we fear what we can do in the future to continue to support him. His sister and husband may well need to take care of him for the rest of his life) and less fortunate. ok, and I don't like Telesalesman, who doesn't I love comedian Bill Hicks, such a loss. And those willing to fight against social injustice. Thats social injustice, not 1938 National Socialism. MASSIVE DIFFERENCE!! Thankyou for your time, I hope this clears things up for you on where I stand. I do not like being labeled a communist, as Im sure you can now understand reading this.

d0dger an0maly Darkwind Guru Deathrace Mafia Faction Group: Members Posts: 2,492 Joined: Jan 24, 2010 For my part, I don't believe I've ever called you or the Evan Reds Communist or Commies or the like, but I will take care to be sure I don't in the future. We'll still call you a Socialist, and a Red, and mean in it in a derogatory way... Sorry Bast. Socialism has its uses and place in civilized society, but when it's taken as the primary concern of a community it doesn't provide enough incentive to be productive to too large a portion of the population. ......................... vet wv combat1 combatL1 paintladder pvp5 sssc deathrceL1 pvp4 zom race1 semiprocombat deathrce1 raceL1 pvp3 pvp2 ww pvp1 paintball santa2 gwped4,16,10 Posted Feb 2, 2012, 10:58 pm Last edited Feb 2, 2012, 10:59 pm by d0dger

*Bastille* Raging Scavengers Darkwind Guru Evan Reds Faction Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 7,513 Joined: Mar 31, 2009 Speak for yourself, Im a Hippy, well, half hippy. I don't bludge about, and am quite active helping the community, unlike my Byron Bay brothers up north. Ironically, my Birthday is the 20th of April (Hitlers Birthday). Im half Austrian, half German, Hitler being a Jewish Austrian that ruled Germany. My Name is derived from a fallen Angel I see it my pace in the world to undo the Hypoctratic Injustice imposed by the bastard.

Like Dodgers ill informed comment above. (Just the Comment I find offensive) Life is not black and white, I really expect you to be smarter than that. Capitalism has brought much to the western world, but as we see right now, exponential growth does not and cannot work in a finite world. So sayeth smart people. There are social elements throughout our culture, this does not mean one to be a communist or Socialist per say. ......................... marshal vet wv pvp4 zom cont pvp32,12,1 Posted Feb 2, 2012, 11:09 pm Last edited Feb 2, 2012, 11:21 pm by *Bastille*

There are social elements throughout our culture, this does not mean one to be a communist or Socialist per say. Take offense if you like when I say Socialism as the primary concern is a bad idea, but don't twist my words or call me ill informed. I never claimed Capitalism was perfect or that unsustainable infinite exponentional growth was what Society should strive for either. I actually said that Socialism has its place in polite society and you claim I'm talking black and white. To be our best, we need elements of both those isms, without taking things to far to either extreme, and probably some other stuff in the mix. Check out one simple example here: I is smart too See you on the track, ya damn dirty Red.  ......................... vet wv combat1 combatL1 paintladder pvp5 sssc deathrceL1 pvp4 zom race1 semiprocombat deathrce1 raceL1 pvp3 pvp2 ww pvp1 paintball santa2 gwped4,16,10 Posted Feb 2, 2012, 11:36 pm

*Bastille* Raging Scavengers Darkwind Guru Evan Reds Faction Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 7,513 Joined: Mar 31, 2009 I just read mean and derogatory Ive gone from Larks Tongue (my Flamer Apache) to Cantankerous (One of Goats Apaches I believe) over night Soon Ill be screaming for Marxist Rule I see the points in the link... thats kinda what Im saying. The Economy slumped In Hitlers Nazi Germany, where only a year before hand world leading economist heralded the idea of National Socialism as a breakthrough. Companies in France, Britain and the US still backed them financially well into the war. One may question why. Ulterior motives in my mind. Here in Australia, there has been socialist ideals to our Health care system, partnered with Private. (I think similar to GB, not sure on that). Everyone can get health care, but if you want choice and the best care, you go private. As more and more socialist structures are removed the level of care and standards have dropped dramatically as the bottom line becomes more important than the system. Crime has gone through the roof, and so has personal security. Many argue the structure of politics in the states right now, and when you see the outcomes, who gains, and the horrible atrocities imposed on great numbers of people, I can completely understand why. A Ying and Yang in needed, a balance of these two ideals would be.. well.. Ideal. ......................... marshal vet wv pvp4 zom cont pvp32,12,1 Posted Feb 3, 2012, 12:58 am Last edited Feb 3, 2012, 1:18 am by *Bastille*

Jeelz The Dionysian Dozen -CHQ- Darkwind Guru Mutants Faction Group: Members Posts: 1,054 Joined: Apr 30, 2009 A little off topic perhaps, but a friend of mine posted this (elsewhere online) recently: "Completely obvious but continually overlooked: Australia is a nation of different people on different paths with different priorities. That's beautiful. Some people love things that others loathe. Some people do things that others don't. That's life. To quote The Beatles and Fleetwood Mac out of context, although "I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together", "you can go your own way". Don't expect that everybody everywhere should follow. That would not be "normal". Horses for courses. Considering perspectives that aren't your own can be very challenging but highly elucidating and can lead to a greater understanding of this thing called "diversity" and what makes different humans tick to different rhythms." Pretty hard to disagree with. **Edit - I'd hope this applies to nearly all countries, not just this great wide land Bast and I are lucky enough to live in. ......................... vet wv combatL1 raceL1 deathrceL1 paintladder Posted Feb 3, 2012, 4:15 am Last edited Feb 3, 2012, 4:45 am by Jeelz
