[DoEE] How to: fight in a coup

Day 2,712, 02:41 Published in Australia Canada by Ilene Dover




Ladies, gentlemen, boys, girls and assorted others. After a hectic week that has seen the ending of friendships and the beginnings of new relationships, the country has spoken. We are heading back towards dictatorship.



To simplify things for the patience-impaired here is the tl;dr.


A coup will be started in the next 48 hours. If it is started by People's Militia of Australia then things are under control and proceeding smoothly.



If the coup has been started by anyone else things have gone wrong and you should fight against it.





If you have more time to read, thank you. Here is some additional information that will help you understand how, where and when to fight.


To exercise your democratic right to revolt against the elected government, you must move to the capital region. That is, you must move to South Australia (I know all the jokes about time warps and how each eDay drags out, I am originally a Crow Eater...).


You cannot be a disorganised rabble when revolting against a government. Join the Australian Defence Force if you don't know how to fight on the correct side.


Click "Go to the Battlefield", in the big red box at the top and in the middle of your home screen. I'm sorry, but I didn't keep a screenshot of the last time I had to live through a coup...so you'll have to use your imagination.


Look at "The Wall".



No, don't get Pink Floyd out of your record collection... Look at where the line between "Team Left" and "Team Right" sits.




If "Team Left" has more than 60%, grab a beer and raise your glass to those who have gone before.






If "Team Left" has less than 60%, imagine kicking this smarmy git in the nuts.






Click "Fight" until you run out of energy. Each time you press the big red button with feeling, a picture of Tony Abbott in Speedos is erased from the internet.





Lest we forget, take a moment to remember those that are always there for us. Today will feel like a long day, but at least we will be going home at the end of it.
