does anyone know how to deregister?

I don't mean I want to turn vigilante, or go the other way. And I don't want to go AWOL. I know about those. I just made a mistake, I know that now. I made a mistake and I want to undo it.

there has to be a form to fill out. something.



Please. Anything could help.

In return for promises of loyalty, yeah.

[nastygram]

But that's not the same as a contract. I don't think it is

They can't take it that seriously can they?

[rathercommon]

I don't know. This is just if you DO want as strong a person in your corner as possible. Do you?

[nastygram]

I don't know.

Do you think people can make it alone? If i think about it that way, everythig's designed so we comply and help them so we can get help back. I guess it's fair

But why's it all conditional? if they really want to help us they should just help. We didn't choose this.

[rathercommon]

Because they see us as a resource. Because they do want to control us. They don't make much of a secret of that.

[nastygram]

But they do. Don't they? Or they try to. I don't know. I think telling us that we have a choice and making a whole bunch of stuff free, for us, that's like

It's not a cover up exaclty i think

[rathercommon]

It's certainly not honest, no. It's dressing it up far nicer than what it is. It is a sort of coercion, isn't it.

[nastygram]

Why is that okay?

[rathercommon]

It's not.

[nastygram]

But it still happens.

It's easier i guess. Maybe.

[rathercommon]

Look, would you like to talk? In person?

[nastygram]

I don't know. I don't think so.

[rathercommon]

Well, if you ever change your mind, I'm available to talk.

[nastygram]

Thanks.

[--buuuuut, would rather eat thumbtacks]

Why?

[rathercommon]

Because it's bloody wretched, what you're going through right now. And I'd like to help if I can.

[nastygram]

Did you go through it?

[rathercommon]

Of course. How could you not go through it? You get here, and you've suddenly got to declare yourself loyal to some people who hardly seem like they deserve loyalty...

[nastygram]

Yeah. I know. Yeah. It's crazy. And it happens so fast and it isn't until later that you get time to really thoink about it

did you register? Ruight away?

[rathercommon]

Not right away. I avoided the Swear-Ins for a month or so.

[nastygram]

What madeyou change your mind?

[rathercommon]

I ended up in a bit of a dangerous position. I felt that I needed the help.

[nastygram]

Is it still dangerous?

[rathercommon]

No. The person I was afraid of turned out not to be an enemy at all.

[nastygram]

That's good.

What's it like to unregister?

[rathercommon]

Don't know. Never done it.
