Region: Libertatem
That's where this is going.
Don't think of the now. Think of the things leading up to the future.
Look. If we are doing something illegal under Libertatem jurisdiction eventually some sort of trial is going to happen.
I really don't understand how anyone could be convinced that the Palestinians are the victims. Sure, maybe at some point they were. Yeah, it kinda was their land at the time Israel was created. They didn't have any legitimate claim on it, though. Sure, it was their holy land. But it's kinda also the holy land of Judaism and Christianity as well. They could have had a legitimate casus belli, but they don't just because of that. They're not the victims. Israel was never a very militant state; they even gave Sinai back to Egypt after they captured it. And Sinai has oil. Israel gave up an oil-rich piece of territory for peace. And now they're the aggressors? What?
Again with the fascists. I can't tell you to do anything, but I recommend you form your own opinion. Both Anhka and Hallo have really bad blood with us (hence the creation of COIN) so they would probably say just about anything to trash us.
"Not really fascist"?
At this time, all that is trying to be discerned is our legal range of action.
There anti-commie but that's it.
Which I've been slowly trying to change and I've got a green light. I just need to get an appeal through.
What do you mean again with? Do people call your region fascists often?
As explained to me by ankha when it was first created, the purpose of coin was to have more of just a private forum devoid of heavy regional politics. The current mess we see is the result of allowing disenfranchised minority nations a soap box to spew their opinions. Not naming any names, but he couldn't reply if he wanted to.
Yes.
How many times do I have to say that I am not in favor of making any charges? No laws were broken, so that wouldn't be a very intelligent argument. And again, I agree with the premise, not the execution.
That's kind of funny.
Basically, the way some people work, if you're anti-Communist, you must be a fascist.
At least, I think that's how it works.
Yep...
Anarcho-Communism sounds kind of nice. Farfetched, impossible, and unattainable... but nice.
That's why there are so many Communist sympathizers in general. It sounds nice. It's atrocious in practice, but it sounds nice.
Same here.....
We're libertarian capitalistic freedom fighters at war with authoritarianism. Basically a group of conventional, average Joes.
Yep....If we could put it into practice better though then maybe it'd work. Eh not something I care about.
I am offended that you would equate us to people who are comparatively idiots.
[/joke]
There you have it folks, the essence of it all
Very odd that a group of libertarians would take an approach such as war to end an ideology. No hate intended, just have never met a single interventionist libertarian.
I'll be real, it doesn't even sound nice
...
*whispers under breath* finally someone who gets it.
These aren't libertarians. They are guys who love libertarianism so much they MUST enforce it across Nationstates
Well, you're Lack.
To you, anything that involves government doesn't sound nice.
COIN=Free
COIN=/=Yours
Not your business. Just stop!
WOLOLO
A stateless classless society where everyone co-operates for the greater good doesn't sound nice? Don't get me wrong, I'm an ancap through and through. But the biggest reason behind that is because in the absence of government, capitallsm is the natural result.
I have a feeling that this isn't your first encounter with Libertatem.
Yes
I recommend you read some of this historical and philosophical papers in our factbooks
Yep.
An ancap who supports communism. Who'd a thunk it?
I'm an egoist. Lack?
Well, you're Miencraft and you're good at pointing things out. But it's really diffrent than that. Anarcho-communism is just a filthy concept that stone walls a society's progress and stifles the individuals ability to produce.
I'm not even a libertarian or conservative. I'm just here.
The vast majority of libertarians here are Objectivists, who have a different mindset regarding war. The rest are called "Neolibertarians." See below:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Neo-Libertarian
Well seeing as I see your regions name nearly everyday posted on COIN regional message board. I know very little about Libertatem, again, I'm not trying to say anything bad here. I'm making a statement.
And I'm the friendly economically confused centrist Radical Libertarian.
I say this because that argument, almost word-for-word, has been used to cliche status.
And of course there are interventionist Neocons and liberals in this region as well.
So this is real. The last thing I ever expected to see on urban dictionary
Hahahahaha you're cool
Physical Pleasure....from a book..hmmmm
It's not as if it's a not a reasonable statement. It wasn't an argument either, I said I found it odd.
Kinda defensive. Huh. I am drinking a lovely glass of ice water in a walk-in freezer. "Chilling" anymore would be dangerous to my health. Though some here would like that.
Was that a question, or poorly placed punctuation?
Tried reading the communist manifesto. Couldn't understand anything. It's like trying to decipher morse code.
Who would that be?
*Innocent smile*
I didn't expect to so ill received.
I'll try reading it.
Hump, what exactly is your flag symbolic of?
I was actually making a point about Communism as a whole.
I can agree that Anarcho-Communism just doesn't even.
Heh, thanks. :P
Question
No, it's nothing against you. Just pointing out that literally every "anti-establishment" 'Tatemite has said those words a thousand times. I thought it was a strange coincidence.

Forgive my inability to even cognitive thought right now, but if you wouldn't mind expanding on what exactly you're asking, that would be appreciated.
Hyperbolic political hypocrisy.
I read the firat paragraph of the Communist Manifesto......what am I getting myself into.
A fresh role of toilet tissue
Being unable to spell "First", obviously.
Are you an egoist
Ah I see. Rationally, I feel I am correct about my statement. However, political views are extremely complex. Labeling them helps other people to see your general direction, but a label is not completely definitive. So I don't doubt the existence of an anti-Communist Libertarian. It's not impossible.
It's like I'm reading a rant hating on a movie or something.
Well, work in five hours, I should probably sleep.
Cat nap? Haha.
Who wants to fite meh?
Ancient Icelandic Law: What is the assembly of jurists in ancient Iceland called?
Looks back at original post, has a deep inward soul searching moment , realizes it's time to call it a night for lack of understanding things that should be exceptionally clear.
And to answer your question, only in my natural form.
It's like 1 AM back home.
Why am I still up.
And I'm just gonna have the laptop open in bed anyways.
Goddamnit.
Yeah, i get that
What's been happening to this region's population? 0.o
I mean... ouch
Indeed, several other regions have taken hits to their populations. Many even more severe than ours. But in real terms the population reduction has not mattered much, since it's mostly been a cleansing of inactives and puppets.
I think the most compelling case for a central bank is that the economy would be at the mercy of foreign creditors and other government banks if it was abolished. After Andrew Jackson killed the National Bank, two things happened: a) state-chartered banks all over-inflated the currency, and b) the Bank of England, which the US depended on for much of its Western expansion, raised interest rates, which forced state banks to do the same. This triggered a depression that lasted for several years because the US could not control its monetary policy.
So voting has ended.
I swear the only reason this current WA resolution has so few votes against is because it's a resolution about banning Child Pornography.
Well duh...I personally will not vote on ot.
I left the WA, personally I though it was unproductive.
Why is Nickelback on the radio.
Good question
May I recommend the Beegees for the radio?
Well, I was thinking about passing legislation on the radio that would allow people to control the radio.
Nooooo
Why not?
I don't want the radio nationalized
Well, it would be the people choosing though.
Everybody would pick a different song and it'd just get really messy.
I mean, it's just a link. It's arbitrary at best. Don't like what's on, don't click. Easy.
Will see, it's just an idea I am pondering.
