Join the new world

Walking the streets of any of the occupied territories of eAustralia is an eerie business these days. The ecitizens one meets out and about appear to be going about their work normally enough, but there are far fewer than one would usually expect during an average working day and if you look a little closer the grim face and steely gaze of your average eAussie tells a story of a proud nation determined to fight to earn back what is rightfully theirs.

I’m told by a senior resistance figure that the reasons for this lack of human traffic are two-fol😛 on the more sinister side, many have simply disappeared, presumed captured or killed by the various occupying powers. However, many more have simply gone underground – taking to the bush and the outback to join the resistance forces fighting to free their homeland.

Visiting one resistance training camp in rural Tasmania, I am surprised, pleased and impressed to see that spirits are high and there’s a genuine sense that things will improve – that it’s eAustralia’s destiny to rise up once more and reclaim its place on the world stage.

One thing that is guaranteed to turn the mood more sombre is any talk about the recent political situation. Not only have eAussies had to watch their country succumb to a vicious and deceitful invasion from overseas, but internal strife threatened to tear apart the nascent resistance movement before it truly began.

eAustralia’s political class has lurched from crisis to crisis – with the two most recent Country Presidents resigning in controversial and unsatisfying circumstances and the Senate giving every indication of being asleep at the wheel, with fewer than a third of them turning up for the most recent vote. So why the optimism?

Well, as my well-placed source assures me – for the fighting wing of eAustralia it’s business as usual. Supply and training continues with ever more urgency and the sporadic Resistance Wars that spark up across the nation are, whilst currently unwinnable, keeping the attentions of our occupiers spread more thinly around the globe. The Joey Development Scheme is still one of the best in the world for bringing new fighters into the movement and getting them started.

The acting Government, led by the indomitable Dr Huge Jardon, is also doing tremendous work to shore up alliances overseas as well as keeping things entertaining at home. At the camp I visit, soldiers who aren’t training are playing games, organising competitions and raffles and reading the regular newsletters put out by various factions – either informative or, shall we say, more for entertainment purposes.

Nobody is trying to make light of the situation, and there is no doubt that eAustralia is in a precarious position currently, but with a new and engaged leadership and with the determination of the rest of the populace, nobody expects anything other than eventual triumph for the great nation of eAustralia.
