Region: Libertatem

History

No worries haha, full stops make everything I type look cold x)

Oh yeah. Rough necks are making near six figures tirelessly working. Mostly because they have no place to go otherwise. I live in the heart of the Bakken, not enough housing here so the workers usually live an hour away at least then come here for work.

The Bakken? There's a loooootta oil out there.

Never been to North Dakota. Drove through South Dakota once on a family trip, I was only in there for three hours, but I liked it. South Dakota is best Dakota.

The only states I have ever visited (not including Georgia, my home state) are Florida, Alabama, and the Carolinas. :/

I don't go South.

Pev.... we're waiting.

I live in Connecticut and I have been to Mass, RI, New Hampshire, Maine, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia/DC.

I live in Indiana and I've been in KY, TN, IL, IA, SD, NE, WY, OH, WV, VA, and DC. I flew to Denver once too.

And a semester in France with the European travel entailed.

I love DC. I marched Sousaphone in the national Memorial Day parade with our band.

Spent two weeks up there, loved every minute of it.

Have you been to the Kennedy Center?

I'll be living in Jordan for a year, starting in a month, so there is that, I guess.

I watched Predator a day ago and i am watching Eraser later today. I will watch escape plan later on sometime. Stallone is in that right?

Are you arabian, or just living there?

Humpheria wrote:Are you arabian, or just living there?

Studying.

Anyhow, later on in the day, I will be making a public statement, regarding my appointment as Manager of State.

I like the idea of the Political Crowd Chart in de WFB! Nice done

Thank you Pev, but you're underestimating the organizational skills of my opponent and undervaluing the popular support he has. I'm sure people are voting for him for a good reason.

I'm finally awake!

Guys I'm about to have a personal friend here who is a libertarian Marxist. He isn't affiliated with any evil communist regions. Just wanted to let you know so you didn't think you were getting raided.

Libertarian Marxist?

Sounds like what I was when I entered the region. Even though I called myself a centrist.

Libertarian Marxist is an oxymoron.

Okay, reading back on the RMB, I see that I am apparently the target of libel and slander. Really, guys?

Baphometus wrote:I encourage everyone to vote for RWN after seeing what CI has written about us.

Well, this is a first. I haven't seen this side of you in other elections, Hallo; it might have helped with that little gossip problem we had to deal with.

Baphometus wrote:You shouldn't vote for someone just because they aren't in the RLP.

Ideologically my opponent and I are very similar; I side with the RLP on most issues, as does he. As a result, I would ask people to instead consider our actions, not our views, when voting.

The Amarican Empire wrote:I'm not. I am voting for Ci because he is more active.

I get on every day if I can help it, but I would assume my opponent is equally active.

Right-Winged Nation wrote:Maybe in his other region.

I'm not defaming you, RWN. I would appreciate it very much if you would return the favor.

Muh Roads wrote:I especially like this one

CI: Of course, they probably shouldn't do something so reckless in the future and expect us to cover their asses...but we'll talk about that later. For now, we'll figure out the future of the involved regions, together

Good news CI, we don't need you too cover our asses. Get over yourself.

Does it look like I think you need me? I said that primarily to get Bush to calm down; if only it had worked.

Right-Winged Nation wrote:While CI thinks that we are going to self implode at any minute.

No, I don't. This region is plenty secure, and I have no doubts about that. Don't say things that aren't true.

Humpheria wrote:Honestly, I would be more willing to turn on CI had I not warned Pev about that raid. I told him at least ten times what would happen. And I was right on everyone.

It was a poorly executed operation that, if performed at all, should have been better planned. But, I congratulated Pev on his victory, even though I didn't agree with his methods.

The Amarican Empire wrote:Hold on hold on. Ci is one of the people that criticized me for criticizing Libertatem from a foreign region. But then he does it himself.

I was expressing disappointment at the disorganized, haphazard military operation, and disagreed with Pev on whether it should have been performed; it was not a potshot at how this region is run. Could you tell me what exactly that has to do with your accusations of tyranny, old friend?

Right-Winged Nation wrote:Wait a minute, what scandal am I involved in?

I have no clue.

In any case, it's clear that I don't have public support on my side, so [B]I concede to my worthy opponent[/B]. RWN, don't let your supporters down.

Now that that's out of the way...I would like to express my disappointment. If anyone else were in my shoes, I would still have the same thing to say:

I am a fan of civil discussion and careful debate. Despite this - or perhaps because of this - I don't believe it is right to demonize any players in regional politics for voicing their disagreement with executive/managerial action. One should never spread slanderous lies about their opponent, and one should especially not use those lies to sway people to vote for the candidate they prefer. The people of Libertatem should stand by their own merits and address their own flaws; that is because we are people, not monsters. If we are to criticize any resident (or any law), we should do so with the assumption of good faith and the intent to improve them, not to bully, demean, or haze.

I think this is something we can learn from. (Including me - I can learn from this.)

Oh, and if I have said anything slanderous about this region (and I suppose it's safe to say I probably have at some point), I don't mean it. Really. This region is my home region, the place I started NationStates, and it's great. Yeah, I might have my disagreements with a few people here, but I support what it stands for and remain invested in regional politics. The day I stop caring about this place is the day that something is very seriously wrong - more likely with me than with you.

Anyway, I would like to congratulate my opponent on his victory, and hope that he will act (and continue to act) with the honor all Board members should have, and regret that I could not do so in his place.

It's the start of a sentence.

Republic Of Minerva wrote:Libertarian Marxist is an oxymoron.

Not really. Cultural Marxism, for instance, distances itself from many of the statist elements of a transition into communism, and considers it the success of an individual commune rather than the entire world. It's entirely possible to be a libertarian while still supporting Marxist theory. (I, personally, wouldn't recommend it, however.)

Actually, Reagan agreed to raise some kind of tax in every year of his Presidency except 1981. But they were very small increases and did not stop tax rates falling across the board.

Sometimes I take for granted that I can come up with awesome comments on the fly.

Well, I say on the fly, but what I mean is I start writing a comment, and by the time I've published it, two hours have passed and people online are wondering where I've been. :P

After the recent slanders on the IRU RMB by their President, I have resigned my puppet's government positions and have renounced my citizenship there.

The IRU will be the next TFI2 if this keeps up.

Related, we need to get rid of the "Regional Map" link at the bottom of the WFE, since the link directly to the Factbook up top is far superior.

Here is my opinion on the Israel and Palestine situation.
