All across Binaria and its colonies, radio and television brodcasts began playing the nightly five O'clock"This Alan Schaefer with the Binarian Imperial News Network. A recent study carried out by a team of top Binarian Doctors and scientists has traced back Communism, but more specificaly Stalnism and Moaism to be the result of wide spread inbreeding occuring overseveral generations. Once the communist mutation is past on, and the offspring mature and enter the Gene pool, there will be no stopping its spread. The is no cure. The only choice for families of Communists is to commit them to an asylum. There they will be given a choice. They can either have them sterilized to prevent them from reproducing, or have them lobotumized. It may not be the most humane thing, but if they are allowed to spread their mentaly derranged lunacy, others may pick up their beliefs. This will create the possiblity of a rebellion of those with a mentally disabilty that is highly dangerous. We now go to Doctor Ventura, the head of the research team." To the people that were watching tv, the screen slipt in half with a bald man with a moustache occupy the right side of the screen.

"Its a priviledge to be on your show Alan."
"Thank you Doctor. What are some common symptoms of the Marx Disorder?"
"Well, Alan, the most common symptom is the use of the words proletariat, and bourgeoisie. Other notable symptoms may be historical revisionism and hero worship of Marx and Leinin."
"I know that your reseach will help save millions of Binarians from this disease. Binaria thanks you Doctor."
"I do what I can. It is all any of us can."

"I heard him Mommy, he said that big word the bald guy on TV used."
"Who did Billy?"
"Our next door nieghbor. Mr. Johnson."
"Thank you Billy. I'll make him go away,"
Billy's momther picked up the phone and called the Center for Communist Control. "Yes, I would like to report a communist sighting....."

With in a week, Mr. Johnson's house had been cleared and a new family moved in. Inside a month, Mr. Johnson had been forgottten to all but a few.

If a direct comparison of a communist against a capitolist is required, then Aperture Science would be pleased to assist by pitting a pair of such persons against each other in the Aperture Science Enrichment Center, in order to full assess cognitive, problem solving, team work and various other abilities which organic units seem to value.
Naturally, any risk of death or dismemberment in such exercises is merely an illusion designed to enhance the experience. The manditory Death and Dismberment Waiver Form signed prior to entering the Aperture Science Enrichment Center is simply a formality.
However, in the event of death or disememberment, no compensation whatsoever will be provided to any parties whatsoever. The limb or body in question may or may not be returned to the next of kin or original owner depending on the state of said limb or body and whether or not it is retrievable, recognizeable, or of great value to the scientific progress of Aperture Science.

Thank you for taking the time to read this message.

Sitting in a darkened room, nursing the end of a burnt-out cigar, something was eating Jai Resi. He thwapped his jaw repeatedly with a meaty index finger, the exact size, color, and thickness of a small breakfast sausage, and making what one would assume to be a similar sound upon striking his jaw that a sausage would make under identical circumstances. These were both nervous habits of his, subtle self-mutilation and finding new and exciting ways to give himself cancer, and they have served him well for years just as he expected them to serve him well for another decade until his inevitable tumor and/or ulcer finished him off.

He had just entered a business deal with socialists. Socialists! He scoffed. What do those bastards know about anything? It's all hugging and kissing and bunnies shitting rainbows with them, there's no cold hard cash to be had. Still, if there's one thing they know, it's how to make a damn fine tank, and how to fit a damn fine Plasmathrower onto said damn fine tank.

With a flourish that would be envied by any thespians in the audience, would he have had an audience to observe it or if he ever kept company with anyone silly enough to major in theater, Jai flicked the cigar butt across the room and quite expertly landed it in a wastebasket near the couch opposite his desk. Flipping open the newspaper folded next to his computer, he decided he should read a tad, see if anything too terribly interesting has happened. Or, he mused, if this was not the case, he could simply read the gossip columns until they caused an aneurysm in his brain.

His eyes darted up and down the page, searching for sweet, sweet distraction, before finally settling on a particular decree by the Binarian people.

"Communism?" he chuckled, fishing in his desk for another cigar, "Mental illness? Maybe there's hope for this world yet."

Official Statement from the Beatus

A recent, double blind, study by top Beatusian Sociologists, has found similar results. The study, done over 40 years, and two generations, observed both capitalists, and communists. While those who were pro-capitalism were generally productive members of society, those who were pro-communists, generally had trouble holding jobs for more than a week, ended up living on the street, and died at a very young age. As we can see from this study, pro-communist persons are not productive members of society, and therefore, a program is begining to find them a nice communist nation that will baby them, and coddle them, and ensure that they are taken care of. The will be put on a barge, and pushed in the general direction of that nation, and we shall hope they drift there. If any nice communist nations would like to take these pro-communist individuals, they will find them all on a large barge, floating toward some, unidentified communist nation.

Greetings, comrades, and welcome to another broadcast of the Communist News Network!

We are told that a group of scientists – we can neither confirm nor deny the rumors that these scientists have the IQ of a pig, and are simultaneously funded by Allanean Arms, the Resi Corporation, and the Menelmacari Royalist-Imperialist Regime – have declared Communism a mental illness.

Naturally, we at the Communist New Network are much surprised by this statement. With us on the phone is Comrade Surgeon Makahiri-Mali, live from Progressi-City. Comrade, what is your reaction to this announcement?

"Thank you for having me, Comrade. Frankly, this is typical of capitalist behavior. As you know, capitalists are extremely insecure about the size of their reproductive organs and their position in society. This is a result of the social and economic inequality produced by their economic system."

"As such, the average capitalist bourgeois overcompensates by the process of so-called conspicuous consumption – purchasing ever more advanced electronics, cars, guns, homes, and so forth, so as to overcome his – understandable – insecurity."

"Unfortunately – as shown in these latest events – the capitalist also projects, that is, attributes the negative qualities he suspects in himself to others. And as I've just explained, capitalists are neurotics – so they accuse communists (and by their definition, anybody left of their idol, Ayn Rand, is a communist) of being psychiatrically unstable."

"The truth, comrade, is simple. It is not that communists are all mentally ill, it's that capitalism is bad for your mental health."

Statement of the Confederacy of Third Spanish States

We don't know whether to laugh or cry. I'm sure that average Binarians would be diagnosed with sluggishly progressing schizophrenia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sluggishly_progressing_schizophrenia) if they lived in a false communist country. That alone is more than enough to demonstrate how ironic these actions are. Because by doing that, you are exactly mirroring the actions of the so-called "communists" of yersterday and, sadly, today. We would consider it much more noble to be honest about this and simply assume the fact you simply are seeking to outlaw, persecute and wipe "the left" rather than relying on ridiculous, biased, unscientific shams of research in a flawed attempt to justify political persecution, this would be ridiculously laughable if not tragic. Using the argument that anyone who mentions the word bourgeois once is a communist makes as much sense as calling all those who speak German nazis.

Finally, although there are those who have a modicum of honesty, in the Confederacy, a significant amount of the supporters of capitalism are lazy people who don't like to work and would love to have a good life without effort at the expense of a poor worker. The fact that the entirety of organized crime issues is originated not from poverty, but from young, ambitious individuals who see crime as the last bastion of capitalist exploitation and chance for complete, individual enrichment in Third Spanish States says much about what we would reply this with. The goal of a true capitalist is to benefit and enrich from the hard work of others, preferably without having to commit any physical or mental effort, but instead by exploiting those who work to profit from them, while he enjoys his luxurious vacations in the Caribbean. The goal of a swindler is to benefit from the hard work of others, preferably without having to commit any physical or mental effort, but instead cheating those who work to profit from them, while he enjoys his vacations at Cayman Islands.

It is no coincidence that all the swindlers, illegal drug dealers, robbers, contract hitman, slavers, children traffickers among other dregs of mankind we have the unfortunate need to kick out of the Confederacy through ostracism or a bullet to the head(depending on whether the crime was heinous or not among other factors) before they steal all our deserved possessions are, when not apolitical, devout supporters of capitalism. They know how it is beneficial to their practices, and how once they get rich, law becomes lenient to them in certain capitalist nations.

Lastly, on doctor Vent-ura, some have suggested that his name comes from the fact his head has more air venting than neurons. I have abstained from agreeing with such statements, as they aren't serious either. But I would like to warn all about a disease called Randroidism, a mental issue which makes people believe the free market is a god and that Ayn Rand is the messiah. Usual symptoms include having old Ron Paul propaganda posters, believing that commies eat children and the occurrence of when the diseased kill your father. As supporters of neurodiversity we won't intervene against Randroids unless if one of them becomes a serious threat to the welfare and life of some of our people.

That's all, now I guess I'll be shopping in the cooperative next home with the mutualist credits I earned from what I deserved, which also is in the same bulding where their members live so they don't have to waste time or fuel traveling to their work like in an inefficient capitalist economy, because here they have the decision-making power to take measures like this, in other places they would have to blindly agree with bosses.

Attentiously

WALTER MONTOYA (NBBC World News)-
Recently, the Binarian and Betusian governments have both declared the political ideology of communism to be a quote unquote, mental disorder. Can I get a comment?

NABILA KATCHAB (Minister of Foreign Affairs)-
Well, I am not sure if this is true or not, I uh did not know about it before hand. If it is true, then I strongly condemn it.

*Unknown man whispers to Minister Katchab*

It seems to be true now, well, I do condemn it. As to the deportation and false arrests of communists, that is also strongly condemned by New Brittonia. As a result, the government of New Brittonia strenuously frowns upon the nations who committed these actions.

Now, whether it was because New Brittonia was founded by communists and is ruled by a Communist Party, or we just care about basic human rights, we will admit communist refugees, and begin talks with the Binarians and the Betus to admit these refugees.

Do You Realize How Stupid You Sound?

Hello again, readers! It's time for todays Douchebag of the Week Award, and it looks like, this week, the DWA will be going to a 'Dr.' Ventura, a quack from Binaria who helped produce a bogus medical study listing communism as brain malady. While most Luslyvanians are staunchly anti-communists, we all agree it is not a mental disorder, merely a badly skewed political ideology.

Well, most of us agree, anyway.

In all seriousness, however, this is a show of blatantly pigheaded intollerance in the same league as the Third Reich's attempted Jewish genocide. Horrifying ideas like this one don't come aound every day, thank God, but when they do it is always a terrible experience, for all who witness it. Whatever happened to the days when people could sit down and discuss differing political ideas like civilized people? They are long gone, it seems. Nowadays if somebody disagees with you, the latest fashion seems to be to declare him a nutcase and try to have him lobotomized and sterilized.

May the Lord be with those affected by this terrible event, and may the Lord have mercy on Binaria. Dr. Ventura can just rot.

Official Statement from the Beatus

First of all, we did not say that it was a mental disorder, per se, we simply stated that our study showed that communists had difficulty holding jobs in our free market system, and that, for they're own good, we were sending them to a nation with a adequate welfare, and educational system to assist them with they're communist lifestyle. We are footing the bill to send these people to a place they want to go, how is that a bad thing?

Royal Regalia
Taerkasten's leading national newspaper for a century!

SCIENTISTS IN BINARIA have concluded that communism is a mental disability, according to a recent broadcast of a popular Binarian propaganda show.

Doctor Ventura, head of the research team which proposed the controversial theory, explained how communism - specifically, Stalinism and Maoism - are caused by generations of inbreeding within a population. This genetic mutation is then passed along by further breeding, leading to an inexorable spread of the 'illness' throughout a population.

Already the Binarian government has taken the theory as an excuse to appropriate any communist supporters within their domain and confine them to metal health care facilities, where their 'treatments' range from sterilisation, ostensibly to prevent the 'illness' from being spread, to such extremes as being lobotomised.

However, the theory has met some stiff resistance from experts in Taerkasten and abroad, who question its factual accuracy.

"I would propose inbreeding as the reason for the prevalent stupidity within Binaria's population, certainly," Professor Richard Johnston, of Taerkast City Royal university. "There is no documented evidence to even remotely suggest that a belief in communism is the result of a genetic mutation, however. I think we can all see why that particular theory as come about, and can probably postulate who funded the research too. You don't need a degree for that."

Dr. Ventura has even been attacked personally by some critics, who question his credentials, his intelligence and even his character.

"Given his rudimentary understanding of hereditary genetics, psychology, and even science in general, I would very much like to know if Mr. Ventura has any qualifications in his field of study," Dr. Gerald Matthews of Taerkast City Specialist Hospital commented. "And if he does, I'd love to see the joke of a university he got them from."

"It is rather telling that he names himself after an insane fictional pet detective from a farce of a movie," Dr. Matthews continued. "I have heard better descriptions of genetics from elementary school pupils."

Meanwhile, the Taerkast government has issued a stern condemnation of the research, and the Binarian government.

"His Majesty would like to re-iterate his distaste for fabricating scientific research with the aim of using that research to persecute people with differing political and economical viewpoints to their government," Gregory Barnes, executor for the king, informed our journalists earlier today. "This government will have no choice but to condemn and embargo Binaria - and any other countries following their lead - if these acts are not stopped within twenty-four hours, and their full, complete and unabridged research documentation is not released to the general scientific community."

Meanwhile, biology students at Taerkast City Royal University today released a satirical scientific study onto the internet. The study, entitled 'Are Binarians sane?', examines in detail the Binarian gene pool, and cites various acts undertaken by the Binarian government as evidence. It ultimately concludes that the entire population of Binaria suffers from a severe mental disability dubbed 'Binarianism', making them extremely gullible and prone to lying, and recommends they all be 'committed to institutions for their own protection'.

"As well as proving that the Binarians desperately need psychiatric help," Bob Taylor, 'lead scientist' of the group, told the Royal Regalia. "It also demonstrates, without a doubt, how easy it is for somebody to make up a bogus theory to suit their own politics, and how urgent it is for governments and members of the scientific community to guard their ethics closely.

"And ours is a lot more eloquent than theirs, too."

Mr. Taylor hopes to receive an A grade for his efforts.

NABILA KATCHAB (Minister of Foreign Affairs)-
Well, first, the Foreign Ministry is unsure on what is exactly happening in the Beatus. Through clandestine intelligence services, the actions by the Binarian nation have been revealed, and actions such as the disappearance and deportation of numerous Communists. In fact, the Binarians have decided to be open about their Center for Communist Control, and, with the packets staffers gave you, it is apparent that the Center has its own, public, website, where screenshots and the address have been given to you, and the number for their toll free hotline have also been given to you.

Secondly, New Brittonia is unsure about the Betus’s actions, as we are unsure if the deportations are forced. We know that they are on a ship in the oceans. New Brittonia first wishes to engage in talks with the Beatus in order to admit the Communist refugees, as political refugees, into New Brittonia. Also, we wish to have New Brittonian aid workers to inspect the ship to make sure the refugees are treated humanely.

Official mesage from Conserative Morality:
While we are no fans of Communism here at CM, espicially after our last civil war, we believe that Communism is, at worst, a misguided ideaology. We condemn your acts, and will cut off all relations with 1010102 until this idiotic intrusion on freedom is repealed.

OOC: Good thing then. There is no IC nation none as 1010102.
