Petition For An Open City Started by: Conceptualist on Jan 06, '23 16:58

That people won't allow this innovation is one of the reasons writers stopped writing.  That's a fact.

Report Post Tip
Perhaps it's time again to reopen this discussion. The people spurn the job board. They despise their economic servitude. They yearn for the freedom of Italian-American anarcho-communes.

The late Simon of Detroit, or don’t quite remember if it was the big or small one, did in fact offer anyone that desired to set up within Detroit and run their operations there.

I think I can say, without even consulting with the current occupants of said city, that the offer still stands.
Raise your hand, raise your voice, do whatever to get our attention, explain your intentions and ambitions - then set up shop and make this world a better place.

Don't offer this clown his wank circus please, TheNewGuy.

Wank circus? You are such a filthy man, Simon. Your mind is full of nothing but lunatic degeneracy. I find it offensive. You're like a deranged viking court jester lunging around the mead hall helicoptering your twisted willy into everyone's food. I won't stand for it.

What's suggested here is a Xanadu for freedom of thought, expression and experience. It is in these environments the Milton's and Da Vinci's and Telkin's and Rousseau's drove the progress of the human spirit forward. I have not read any of their works, as I am too busy protecting the people of the streets from your tyranny, but I assume they are all rather good. I do not read in general, because I do not wish to defile the great totem of street-evolved wisdom that is my mind with the perspective of deviants like yourself.

You, who have been known to spend your days walking into universities in janitorial Halloween costumes, pretending to solve impossible math equations on hallway blackboards, while really just scribbling gibberish and then standing over your mop with a wry and knowing smirk on your face. It's embarrassing and I wish you'd stop. Tell DickDickman he deserves better.

Simon is a wise and strong leader.

Either you take that back, or we have a problem!

Nobody speaks about my Boss that way!

DickDickman won't stand for it, and neither will Las Vegas!

 

He only wants what is best for all of us.

Even when he brutally slays sleeping goombas, it's out of love.

Learn from his example, and you could better yourselves!

Pass on his wise lessons at your own peril!

I'll have you know Dick, I challenged your despotic little petty lord to a duel not one week ago and he ran for the hills like he had an afternoon agenda full of inbreeding to get to. He's a slug with two extra slugs for arms and two slugs for legs. He's a walking rat-king of slugs, leaving a trail of malodorous goo everywhere he goes. If DetroitSimon had wings, he'd be the world's first flying slug. If he had gills, he'd be a sea slug. If you sent him to space, and I wish you would, he'd be a space slug. But he is none of these remarkable things. He is just a slug-man, who's too scared to duel me.

Mar 18, 11:20:49 You have issued a challenge to duel to DetroitSimon.

So much time has passed, yet we still labor under the oppression of a system that feeds us into donation competitions like petty-criming cattle. Where is our Xanadu? Free us, SimonTheBastard!

From my blood's experience, open cities only work if the dominant power agrees to oversee it and is actually noble and fair (obviously resets work too, but there's only ever been one of those)... something we don't get often in our world.

Otherwise, it just turns into a sham second city for the strongest boss to do with as they please. It's great when they do work out, but rarely do they.

I'm new to this world, so don't really know if it's in a position do that but it doesn't seem to be a very realistic wish, from what little I have seen. Would it really be an "open" city?

Father-TeQ, what if you're wrong and it would be perfect and beautiful? I don't think you've considered that very seriously and I recommend that you do. Do you have any strong opinions on some of the concepts drawn up previously in this speech for how this city would work? There was something about a pouch of coins and another idea involving pineapple rings that I found particularly inspiring.
