That just brings this to mind, which doesn't quite seem... resistance-y.

Hmm my sig is kind of big now
I have a question for both sides of this.
I consider a graph. One axis is number of people. One axis is the amount of injustice and suffering.
Just as a graph of engine power is RPM and horsepower, the important part is how many squares are filled in, not how high the peak of horsepower is. THIS shows how usable your engine is under real world conditions. Not just that tiny little powerband at it's peak. A big fat curve beats the heck out of a hyperbola.
It is well known that there is suffering and injustice in all societies.As long as there are people there WILL be injustice and suffering. The government that causes the LEAST amount of suffering and injustice is best.
The question to me is how many squares are filled in in the graph. The Preatorian hyperbola curve of injustice and suffering, vs the fat curve of Primal Earth to me shows that the vast majority of humans on Preatoria have it better than their Primal Earth counterparts.
I mean I know it would seriously suck for the poor people in Mother Mayhem's place, and that sort of thing but......
The sheer NUMBER of people that suffer every bit as much, if not more is far greater in Primal Earth.
The Preatorians may be a sadistic nasty bunch, but the scale of suffering on Primal Earth. Yeesh!
I would propose that Preatoria IS as close to paradise as people can come, and still have people in it. For every poor soul suffering in Preatora, there are 1000s suffering just as much as on Primal Earth.Perhaps 10s of 1000s.
I'll see you your Mayhem's cruelty, and raise you a Vahzilok, a Circle, a Lost, and 2 Rikti wars!
I didn't even to need throw in a Crey, a Council, a Tsoo, or any Skulls, Hellions or Outcasts.
Do any of you truly understand the SCALE of misery that came from the Rikti wars alone? How many wept bitter tears because Nemisis didn't have his head popped like zit on Brass Monday?* How many shattered lives?
There is but ONE forbidden thing in Preatoria, and that is to oppose Cole. Preatoria is NOT totalitarian, but authoritarian. There is an important distinction. Cole cares not what you do unless you plan to challenge his rule.
You can sit on your lazy behind and never starve if you of a mind to live such an empty life. So be it
you lazy slug! There will always be the stupid and lazy. Get fat, and veg out.
My final question would be, other than trying to change who is in charge, what can you NOT do in Preatoria that you can in Primal Earth?
You see the small group that suffers as individuals and thus they mean more to your than the faceless millions. Well each and every one of those millions you discount because your mind can't grasp the scale are induviduals!
*I will close with a quote from Stalin. "A single death is a tragedy, a million is a statistic."
Dr Tanaka 50 Stone/Stone Tank
Cool MacCool 50 AR/Ice Blaster
Cold MacCool 50 ice/ice Blaster
Alura Darkstone 41 Brute Dark/Stone
Dr Akanat 40 Brute Stone/Stone
and many more
We will let you build your "resistance" to the maximum! We want you to know that even at your maximum strength, you are no match to us TRUE Praetorians!

We will win by posting weird pictures of Cole... i guess.
Cole's perfect society can only ignore the world at large for so long and like a tsunami, one day it will come crashing in on "perfect" Preatoria and what will Cole's throng of happy automatons do then? Perish like the ineffectual fleas that they are, thats what.

GG, I would tell you that "I am killing you with my mind", but I couldn't find an emoticon to properly express my sentiment.

I'm undecided.
Well, at a score of 4 to 1, the resistance has bought my loyalty.
Down with Cole!

Sartre once said, "Hell is other people." What does that make an MMO?
