You are instructed to attend the Tawfiq Memorial in Victory City (formerly Washington DC) at midday on day 241, year 27, for a ceremony marking the formal subjugation of humanity.
The people of Earth give thanks to our Hardit New Order liberators and wish our lives to have meaning and purpose. Even though the Human Legion has been destroyed, our continued service to the New Order remains essential to give some limited worth to our wretched existence.
Failure to attend with enthusiasm will result in the public execution of everyone you know.
ONE EMPIRE! ONE SCENT! ONE LEADER!
By order of Romulus – Governor of Earth and Greater Terra under the gracious authority of Supreme Leader, Tawfiq Woomer-Calix.
THIS IS PROPAGANDA …
DO NOT BELIEVE THE LIES …
JOIN THE LEGION BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE …

Hope someone punches her in her hairy snout! 😉
I think that could be on the cards 🙂
The flashing cover could be seizure inducing?
At last – a substitute for all the inept presidents, prime ministers, premiers and dictators currently in situ. A strong and just ruler with simple laws to obey, and a stringent punishment for failure – sign me up for the rebellion!
Yes, indeed. Tawfiq has simple rules and firm punishment, but can she make the trains run on time? I can’t give everything away 🙂
