Title: Governments
Post by: Meyer on October 16, 2007, 08:42:25 AM
I think this will become an interesting topic at least I hope so. And my answer is dictatorship.

I disagree with the generalisations made in those options (many of them cover more than one type of government) :P

I voted for Monarchy because i support the government form of my country (being a Constitutional Monarchy).  But i believe in democracy (the representative form also being a part of my country's Constitutional Monarchy).

But i am not going to back up my beliefs with reasoning, that is what i believe in, and thats that :D

well I thought it was easier to take the basic governments and startig to list all different types of democracy and others. just like in the religion poll. I only named christianity while I could have named lutheranism, catholicism and orthodoxism.

Dictatorship is the only one that really works in my mind.

well monarchy is one sort of dictatorship if the king/queen has absolute power.

In one sense, yes you could describe a Monarchy as a Dictatorship.   But in a Consitutional Monarchy, the Monarch has little (if any) role in the day-to-day decision making process.

While I don't mind the Kosola part, the Mussolini and Hitler parts I do mind. Final warning.

(For the record, I find meritocracy interesting. Seems like it may work well.)

What wrong on that sentence? It's only a little play with the words. though they are finnish words so you don't get it but still.

Deal with it.

I don't have to. I understand them well. your problem.

1. Heil Hitler I understand. I wouldn't be saying anything about it if you hadn't made racist remarks in the past.

2. Our forums. Our language. You DO have to deal with it. Especially since whenever you speak anything but English, you tend to be insulting people.
Title: Re: Governments
Post by: Meyer on October 17, 2007, 03:25:58 PM
well maybe I explain it to you so you don't have to make a fuss about everything that isn't english.

If you pronounce Heil like it's written it means they or in this case they have.
If you pronounce Muil like it's written it means others and in this case others have.
If you pronounce Meil like it's written it means we or we have.
So sentence Heil Hitler Muil Mussolini Meil Kosola simply is a joke that means: They (germans) have Hitler others have Mussolini and we Kosola (leader of Lapua Movement).

I don't make a "fuss" about everything that isn't English, I make a "fuss" about things when they say stuff that some people may find offensive unless they pronounce them out loud and then laugh at them because when pronounced they mean something else in an entirely different fucking language.

As I said, you had languages that aren't English barred to you on this board when you started insulting other people in them so we couldn't understand you.

Se, as they say in Quebec, fermez ta bouche.

dunno what that means and don't take offense about that. That's the problem about americans they think that if they don't understand something it must be insulting. And you can always check something you don't understand. And I insulted ONE person who insulted me back as much.
Title: Re: Governments
Post by: Corey on October 17, 2007, 03:58:29 PM
1. I don't take offense to Heil Hitler. Many other people do.
2. I'm not an American.
3. The stuff you said WAS insulting. We let you say shit for a while until we actually bothered translating it, and when we did we found out that every single message you had in Finnish was insulting, which resulted in you (And ONLY you) being banned from speaking any language that I can't understand without a translator.

Yes, there was insulting on both ends. Which, if I recall correctly, got both of you banned from posting for a while.

Post by: Meyer on October 17, 2007, 04:02:05 PM
1. I didn't claim you to be american.
2. Who says what is and what isn't insulting? Many things said in here have insultd me deeply but I don't make a show of and start huge posting spree.
3. And if someone is insulted by saying Heil Hi**** that is their problem. Hell I take insult if someone says All Hail Bush.

Yes you did.
