An envoy from the breakaway rebel province of Erewhon meets a NATO representative, vainly attempt to convince the robot of the western powers that his small state would rather be free than democratic.
Unfortunately the western word for democracy is the same as the word meaning oil and gas pipeline, and so there is a great deal of confusion when the Erewhonians try to put their case across. Freedom, he patiently explains, means doing what we want, not what the west wants.
"Does not compute," replies the NATO representative.
