Passed by the Senate on 14 March 2025

Ratified by referendum on 16 March 2025

Whereas: The phrase "when tyranny becomes law rebellion becomes duty" has been mysteriously removed from Article 12 §7 of the Constitution.

Whereas: This was a glorious and important aspect of u/Dovahkiin4e201's Defense Against Tyranny Act.

§1. Article 12 §7 of the Constitution will now include the phrase "When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty".

§1.1. The new phrasing of Article 12 §7 will be as follows:

    "If a Supervisor does not step down swiftly and gracefully after their removal, they are to be declared a tyrant. And when tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. All laws against rebellion are nullified while a tyrant is in control of r/SimDemocracy and/or the Discord, and a backup subreddit as well as Discord Server is to be created if one isn’t already present. Any and all actions taken by a tyrant are illegal."
