What are your opinions on this upcoming Security Council proposal?
Remember that World Assembly members are free to vote however they want on proposals.
- Condemn Cynthia McKinney
- Proposed by Suceavija
The Security Council of the World Assembly,
CLARIFYING that this resolution refers to the Nation, The Human Rights Activist of Cynthia McKinney (CMK), and does not in any way implicate or indict any other similarly-named entity by its claims;
OBSERVING that CMK is the founder of the region, Democratic Socialist Alliance (DSA), which by design is governed based on its ruling Charter. This Charter requires the DSA’s Congress, led by its World Assembly Delegate (WAD), to determine how and when the founder shall use its powers including ejections and bans (E & B) of residents as well as all decisions regarding embassies. This Charter binds all residents of the DSA to its laws while not permitting any resident to have special privileges or immunity from its jurisdiction regardless of any inherent powers or special status that may otherwise be asserted by any resident therein. CMK had signed this Charter, willfully accepting and binding CMK to all of its provisions;
ACKNOWLEDGING that CMK has a proven history of demonstrating contempt for many of the DSA's governing principles, of which include transparent and democratic governance, equality of all residents under the rule of law, and respect for due process of the law, while subverting and violating the DSA's Charter in the following ways:
1) The spiteful, arbitrary and extrajudicial E & B of several residents from the DSA over time who have publicly spoken against the autocratic conduct of CMK; and the despotic attempts by CMK to suppress many criticisms of such conduct despite the DSA’s rich culture of tolerating and encouraging free speech;
2) The extrajudicial removal of executive powers from a WAD so that CMK could unilaterally control embassies sans Congressional oversight. CMK then went on to E & B that WAD despite CMK’s articles of impeachment for that WAD having been resoundingly rejected by the Congress. CMK’s circumvention of the Charter in order to act against a WAD has happened more than once. In aggregate, these flagrant abuses of power subsequently led to a devastating schism and two waves of diaspora.
3) The paranoid extrajudicial E & B of residents for various speculative pseudo-crimes including merely being deemed a “Zionist spy” by CMK and being accused of "disrespecting the founder," among others;
REALIZING that CMK had chosen to cowardly reside in a foreign region for a significant period of time while manipulating the DSA from afar, simply for the stated reason that CMK cannot be subjected to the provisions of the DSA's Charter if CMK does not reside in the DSA; and therefore may evade justice and terrorize the DSA with impunity;
LAMENTING that during CMK’s prolonged absences from active involvement in the DSA, it would thrive while guided by its Charter’s established processes; and that upon CMK’s return to autocratic rule the vitality, size and integrity of the DSA’s community inevitably, acutely atrophied each time;
AFFIRMING the rights of the residents of the DSA to continue governing themselves per their ruling Charter without further harassment, disruption or intimidation from CMK;
BELIEVING that CMK’s numerous aforementioned violations of the DSA’s Charter as well as the DSA’s public trust constitute dishonorable conduct that is far beneath this Council’s standards for rational behavior, democratic governance, and civilized diplomacy for any nation;
Hereby Condemns The Human Rights Activist of Cynthia McKinney.

I think Cynthia McKinney is condemnable for being an anti-Semite and a socialist with authoritarian tendencies, but I plan to be AGAINST this particular proposal for this reason:
- Cynthia McKinney went missing from the game for a couple of weeks.
- While she was missing, the nations of DSA passed an amendment to the regional Charter. By a vote of 4 to 3, they stripped the founder of most of her discretionary powers. Prior to the amendment, the founder had almost total control of the region under the Charter.
- According to the Charter, all votes must be open. This particular amendment was passed under a closed vote. Nations telegrammed their votes to the Secretary General instead of posting them in the forums. Cynthia McKinney claims that this makes the amendment illegal.
- "All it shows is one reply to each post by the Secretary General making claims about how many people voted for and against the amendment. It doesn't show how anyone actually voted. These could have been fraudulent referendums for all I know. These referendums can't be considered valid since everyone's votes are missing."
- Thus, Cynthia McKinney claims that the referendum was merely an attempt by the Secretary General and his supporters to make a power grab while she was temporarily missing from the game. Upon her return to the game, Cynthia McKinney invalidated the amendment because it did not show the actual voting; and she ejected the Secretary General and his supporters from the region.
- Now, those people are accusing her of being a dictator. Cynthia McKinney is accusing them of attempting to stage a coup in her absence. On a matter such as this, I think it is prudent to pick neither side. This is the reason for my being AGAINST this condemnation proposal.

I too have mixed feelings. Before she moved back to the DSAlliance, CMK was in the same region as me, I wouldn't go as far as to accuse CMK of anti-Semitism, but her actions did seem dictatorial to me, especially early on, when she would control the region while residing in another... though the points made above make sense. I don't disagree with her right to do what she did - I just think she could have done it a lot more respectfully to the players who had run the region in her absence. On the other hand, some of the oppositions's supporters have been sayingvery rude things about CMK and her supporters, and though I haven't seen that from the people behind the condemnation, they didn't really speak up and say anything about it. So I think I'll abstain.
