Region: Libertatem
I'll keep an eye on the situation.
I dislike Ann Coulter. She's extremely intolerant of others and seems to hold the view that libertarians are some sort of compromisers, which simply isn't true. And she's fairly RINO as well.
NO! OH GOD NO.
Your taking what i said way out of proportion Hallo. I was reacting to what i have seen thus far, and not what i expect from you. No, i don't think you have some "evil gay agenda".
Oh great, not one of those arguments...
Yeah... let's not.
Relax it ends there. If he has a problem with what i said then fine. I'm not going to pay any more attention to the matter.
Doesn't the RLP have a candidate for Seat One? Also, just so everyone can understand. I am not completely disavowing RRRG, I am not burning his name in the pits of all things Hell. I am merely stating my opinion that of the two I believe that I agree with him more than RRRG. I also disagree with Muh in thinking that the only thing he cares about is gay rights. He asked the region once. Why would that be a basis of a campaign? Anyway, this is shaping up to be bad for the party. We have an RLP candidate for every seat so far. Two of them are contested, but we have an RLP for every seat. So, if another RLP wants to run, we have to have a primary. Everyone remember that we are on the same side. And we should not divide ourselves lest the centrists invade the Board. *glares cautiously at TTA*
ACOP favors an RLP majority as long as said majority is not used for oppressive means.
Our candidate for Seat 1 is Neo-Con.
Why is the gay thing the only talking point? I was also concerned about the random party change. Oh, and maybe i should qoute myself here...
Whose running for seat 1?
As I said, it's Lack vs. Neo-Con.
Okay. I know who supports DRP'S stances now.
Talk about Trolling.
I sent a report, and the mods should be investigating it. Don't worry about it, in the meantime.
The situation in Libertarians seemed to have calmed down. Regardless, I sent in a puppet in case
From what I gathered there was a three pronged raid by North Korea, Communist China, and Cuba, who's coup was beautifully supplanted by a group of +10 random defenders who came out of the blue and endorsed Ancapitalistan. Apparently this was supposed to be a revenge strike against CB and CC, but they failed so badly against such a small region! Hahaha!

I've just reported it.
[U]Democratic-Republican Party Message
The Democratic -Republican Party has gotten the opinions on various issues from candidates and has chosen whom to support.
Seat 1: The Democratic-Republican Party has decided to support Lack thereof of the Liberitarian Party.
Due to our policies disagreements with Neo's policies.
Seat 3: The Democratic-Republican Party supports The Objectivist Empire of Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes of the RLP
because we feel his views more closely match ours.
So did you....haha
-_-'
See this kind of makes me mad. I really doubt that you truly know what I'm all about my friend. Why isn't there a debate for primaries anyways? Why just right into voting? It's relatively important so I don't see why there wouldn't be one
More lolz from the commies.
Castro apologist: "Libertatem is evil for invading small democratic regions, so we're going to invade some small democratic regions!"
Very well. TTA, I will use some of your questions if you don't mind. Firstly, for RRRG and Hallo Island. Please answer fully and truthfully. What is your stance on the War of Communism as a whole?
Well. Eye for an eye.
If it pleases may I post the interviews the two candidates sent me....of the questions I asked?
No need, we'll do it publicly.

I believe that The War On Communism is being fought for a good cause, but we need to pick our battles more carefully. We have been doing tag raids on little regions for no reason at all when we could be looking for bigger and more important regions to invade and take down.
Well, the result will be different when everyone is watching. We have a whole day and a half. We don't need to save time.
RRRG, your turn.
Didn't see the question my bad.
My stance is similar. I also like the war because, quite simply, I hate communism. One of my least favorite ideologies of all time. I support the war 100%. I think however, wasting time on regions with 3 countries in them is a huge waste of time and resources and we have bigger communists to fry. They have little influence and in the long hall it is probably better just to overlook them and press onward with opponents that are actually worth our time.
Very well. What are your opinions on the outcome of the Communist Beach situation? How do you think that this will impact future regional happenings. Such as cases of treason and war.
May I participate in the Q&A?
Hallo and Grimes, if you were more aware of our strategies and tactics, you'd know that we're targeting regions like CC for a very good reason.
....No we aren't. We're wasting our time with this "Holy War on Communism." We don't fight the real enemy we fight their weak counterparts
Well it certainly managed to piss North Korea and friends off enough to attempt to raid a region with ever worse success than me.
Otherwise it is still quite hard to discern a "friendly" communist from an unfriendly one.
You guys have to realize that we cannot just raid giant regions (and fail due to a lack of preparation) all the time. There has to be intervals in where we don't do much, and it's better to use these intervals smartly. There are only so many "big" or influential authoritarian communist regions. Not only that, but our raiding forces are not the biggest in NationStates, as you can see, so toppling the delegacy and securing a password is no simple task.
You have no idea.
Yeah, anyone that is running may.
I think TTA was justified in what happened and honestly at first I was not fully understanding of what the problem was and honestly right now I am having trouble remembering what the issue with the raid was but I think it's great he received a pardon and as long as commies are taken out in the process, treason is not exactly a problem to me. Again, I hate commies. Ronald Reagan is a founder of my country for cryin' out loud.
I sincerely doubt taking a region with 3 countries in it will have any impact on anybody, regardless of alliances or other relations
Hey did anyone make a March Madness bracket? Just curious. OSU really screwed me. There goes my $1 billion.
Well maybe as President you should make the people more aware of said strategies and tactics, sir.
Well, I am glad nobody was banjected, and I believe it was a milestone in both our military and judiciary branches that defines the rules more clearly and outlines what the future may be like for our great region, and is also a event to be remembered in our history.
I am a strong supporter of the War on Communism. However, I don't believe we should focus all our attention on tiny regions, unless they have ties with major communist organizations. I think we should focus more attention on medium, and large size commie regions. Maybe around the size of Communist Beach ( :D ), or larger.
Also, Antifa is a major base of operations, for aggressive commie regions, such as The Red Fleet, Regional Defense Committee, and The Mt Army.
Then inform us.
Let's get an exampke:IN a war if we were fighting Germany, let's say Luxembourg allied them. Let's say Germany has 1,000 soldiers and Lux. Has 300. Germany is the aggressor not Lux. Yet we target Luxemburg first?
As a candidate who is rather busy today (and really shouldn't be on his phone right now) I would request that these Q&A "debates" be scheduled for each seat so that both candidates for any seat may have time to respond to potential questions.
I'm not getting in that convo. But they assisted the aggressors, thus they are aggressors. Also, taking out the support before cutting off the head is standard military strategy.
Lack, if that's what you want.
That is stupid. Who cares, they can TG each other or use a different region that we don't know about. That'd sure show them, taking a region that they barely use!
And this is a great point and exactly what I'm talking about. This shouldn't be the way it is. Influence trickles down. We should hit bigger regions now and small fries later.
RRRG and TTA have a point. (Besides, our enemies get a lot angrier when we actually deal some damage.)
I kind of agree with you guys, but still, hating the strategy isn't worth it. That is standard strategy. You cut off the arms and the legs and leave the head as just the head. No place to fall back. No backup plans. Just confine them to one place, and take them out.
Fight the battles, but you have to be smart about it.
Fight the war, but don't go out of your way to make new enemies.
We have nothing to do while we are waiting to gather our forces. And gaining influences takes time. So why not take a few of theirs in the meantime?

*Angry grunting sounds*
There is a line, and we have admittedly crossed it.
They can, you know, make another region. This is a game mind you, so these real life tactics we are trying to employ into a game where you can create unlimited nations and regions is a bad strategy in the first place. Maybe rethinking the obviously flawed strategy is something we should do.
She a-stupido.
That's a good point. And one that I can agree with. I am not blind to reaso. I can be swayed by sense. And that makes sense. I see no problem with fixing something that doesn't work.
She may be confusing the God of the Bible, with Zeus.
I don't have time to fully address questions on military strategy now, but I'll do so tomorrow.
But put simply, we are targeting large Communist regions as well as small ones, and why can't we target both kinds?
Yet another reason that my fellow RLP members should vote for me over Hallo in this primary. I want to coordinate a revisal of the strategy so we can more effectively take out commies that actually matter.
Cheesy Slogan:
Vote Grimes, let's end these commies' crimes!
State Socialists.....
They are the same thing, why do you always do this?
This is disgusting! Why are people like this even allowed to run for public office? Or even be citizens? This is just despicable and irrational!
Wrong.
Communism: A classless, moneyless, and stateless social order structured upon common ownership of the means of production, political and economic ideology and movement that aims at the establishment of this social order.
State Socialism: State socialism is a classification for any socialist political or economic ideology that advocates for Government ownership of the means of production either as a temporary measure during the transition from capitalism to socialism, or as characteristic of socialism itself. It is often used in reference to the economic systems of Marxist-Leninist communist states to highlight the dominant role of state planning in these economies.
It's frustrating to see so many throwing around critiques of our foreign policy, while many have not the slightest idea of its depth whatsoever. We're having the most success militarily in years. And I'm not just talking about the recent tag raids that so many of you keep erroneously bringing up.
We (UCR) have abandoned all relations with Authoritarian regions.
You're being pedantic, you knew what he meant.
But Grimes, there's a big difference between an-coms and state-coms. I've met several an-coms and it is an ideology that I like, because it advocates voluntaryism even when 'communism' has been achieved. Libertarians and other anti-statists can find a lot of common ground with them.

As part of the UCR-Libertatem region, we were supposed to close all of our embassies with Authoritarian regions.
Also Ucr, is now friends with Das Kommune.
Ok
Neo.... your trying to cause issues....
Corrected statement: Neo Are you trying to cause trouble?
I'm not seeing any difference. And why are you trying to replace what I was talking about "communists" with "state socialist." I place them all in the same category so it doesn't matter to me.
Here is difference:
Communism: A classless, moneyless, and stateless
State Socialism: State socialism is a classification for any socialist political or economic ideology that advocates for Government ownership
Communism has no Government. It's Left-Wing Anarchy
So I guess the USSR wasn't based on communism huh? Because they sure did have a government.
Das Kommune is a free, democratic state.
Different types of Communist advocate different paths to Communism. Stalinists would push for genocide and a strong 'vanguard party' to guide society through to socialism and then communism. An-coms want to overthrow the state and create a voluntary society, in which they assume that workers would choose to collectivise.
You're being needlessly pedantic.
The USSR was Communist but it wasn't communism. There was still currency, foreign trade, and a state.
I love that word. It does not get nearly the mainstream usage it deserves.
Can't quote....
Regain: Nope. They were state socialist. Communism is unachievable at the current time.
Pev: Real communism is no Government. Being a fan of True Communism I dislike when people classify me with say North Korea or the U.S.S.R
Hello!
Hello.
Hello!
*Sigh* Yes, we know, but what I mean is that a state socialist is usually another type of Communist. These No True Scotsman fallacies are giving me a headache...
I like "overzealous"
Who has any questions about my plans and political views?
I happen to also be a white Protestant with Anglo-Saxon heritage. What a coincidence.
Indeed, like the word presumptuous. Great word.
I only have an issue with some of the embassies... Why are we allies with the filthy hippies in UCR, Juche Union, The peoples communist region, Revolutionary committee of Slavia, The real communist region, The socialist region, and occupy nationstates?
Although I can barely tolerate the embassies with Soli Deo gloria, Coalition of Catholic States, and Latin America, those regions are less questionable than forming alliances with those hippies, especially in a region with a WAR ON COMMUNISM!
The first two are libertarian socialists, and the others are former Communist regions that were conquered by Libertatem.
And welcome, by the way.
Libertarian Socialists? What type of hippie crap is this?
Socialism is of the devil and there is nothing libertarian about it! Anyone who says otherwise is a communist sympathizer and should be sent to North Korea or Cuba to see how communism really is.
I'm be thee guy who asks this. How do you politically identify yourself as?
....NO I JUST EXPLAINED THIS. THOSE AREN'T COMMUNUST.
They are nit REAL Communism. They are State Socialist.
Thank you for the welcome.
That is the only thing that grinds my gears. This seems, to me, to be the most respectable capitalist and conservative region out of those that have recruited me. It saddens me to see us bend to communists.
It is still Socialism. Have a nice day!
I am what you would call a typical Southern conservative.
Yeah, well you're wrong. If you don't consider Stalinists Communists then you're being intellectually dishonest with yourself.
I'll say this.
I am a Left Libertarian (Socialist Libertarian). I like real Communism however real Communism is unachievable. The closest is Cuba and U.S.S.R which were State Socialists.
Socialism isn't communism though.
They don't represent communism. Anyone can say they are communist.
