Region: Libertatem
I don't have a stance on gay marriage because I could care less what other people do.
Cruz control.
I never will like him politically speaking. Personality wise, I think he would make a good drinking buddy. Just sayin lol
What about for tax purposes?
Guys I have a new slogan for Pevvania.
[B]Pevvania[/B]
"What else can we privatise"
Oh good speech. I don't have a problem with the raids. I have a problem With them being state endorsed.
I'm against homosexuality but who am I to bar someone freedom because I dislike it.
1. Okay. I guess we can round this off.
2. Okay wound off.
3.later
I hate him. A lot. He's a Tea- partiers........and a Neoconservative.
......I agree. Same-sex isn't a mainn issue.
Now Privatise marriage? Why should anyone be in marriage. Government or business.
1.) https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-zd2DiWP6rDA/UIV_AmT3tPI/AAAAAAAAAw4/gZCm2kz4sHI/w497-h373/Taxation%2Bwithout%2BRepresentation.png
2.) lol, I was just screwing with you there
3.) Which, by the way, would have affected rates regardless of whether people kept their insurance
4.) And the most creative people have ways to dodge and/or improvise. It's a never ending war.
5.) And then that burdens the nationalized healthcare system.
Also I am happy we are constructing embassies with Gay Equality.
So what exactly are you against about homosexuality?
Religious. I'm against homosexuality not against equal marriage or homosexuals themselves.
so... lets get off politics for a while. What bands do you guys like?
So, what is the deal with those Zarathrustra people. I'm completely baffled.
Yes. Finally.
I like Sabaton
- Metallica
- Twisted Sister
- The Cab
- Nickleback
- One Republic
- the songify the news YouTube group.
And a various assortment of Individual artists and YouTubers
I rather like the Beatles and various related groups.
Scatman John did rather good music as well, but he's just the one guy, not a group.
In case you couldn't tell, I prefer music from the previous millennium. Usually.
I enjoy
Pink Floyd
The Smiths
Sonic Youth
Pansy Division
Joy Division
Neutral Milk Hotel
The Beatles
The Grateful Dead
The Velvet Underground
Blind Melon
The Smashing Pumpkins
Hole
Led Zeppelin
Leadbelly
John Lennon
Lake
Gary Jules
Black Sabbath
Stravinsky
Tchaikovsky
So a wide variety.
So you could say I listen
ACOP supports all nations in the running, and is unable to decide which side of the major races to support.
Support Miencraft in Miencraft v. Miencraft seat 4.
It's clearly the only major race.
Obviously.
Naturally.
No, who's on first.
I don't know. Third base?
Air.
The Ocean.
The moon.
Earth worms.
Night
Day
Answer: anything but the military
I'm not sure.
Let's privatize the regional government next.
So who heard the recent timeline of events.
- Michele Obama is going to visit China
- An executive order was passed BANNING the press's ability to follow infringing the first amendment.
-MSNBC reported live by saying "The president must be stopped. "
- Rand Paul visited the most Liberal school. This is the first time they have allowed a conservative. 13,000 people came Liberals and Conservatives. He got a standing ovation.
Forget everything I said about Rand Paul. He's amazing for lack of better terms.
Why doth thou care what thine fvcks, brethren?
In my religion the act of homosexuality is considered a sin. The act itself is. My religion holds no stance on Marriage Equality allowing members to think what they want for this.
This might go down hill, be cautious. This is how friendships end.
That is fine, if there is absolutely no coercion when it comes down to it. I consider it a worse sin, in some denominations, to kick out or disown people who would practice homosexuality. Does not God also say to forgive and accept sinners?
He does. He also says Hate the sin. Not the sinner.
Yeah; Jesus hung out with the sinners and responded to the religious authorities with indignation (at least, according to the Christian faith). If homosexuals are really sinful, then at least they're of higher moral ground than those "faithful" who shun them, right?
Yes.
Right, I think so too.
See, it's easy to sit atop a high perch, look down upon everyone around you, and find a way to accuse them of being sinful. But of all the sins, this practice of pride can quickly become one of the worst, because it just doesn't SEEM wrong to be self-righteous and it's a trap that so many fall into.
The important thing to make of this is that people are better than they seem, no matter what any elitists may have to say. We could complain about the elitists some more, but that doesn't exactly make us any better. Which brings us to another point; no one is superior to anyone else, no matter what their lifestyle or preferences are.
Thus Spake Zarathustra
So have they, uh, changed?
Who?
Hold everything. This new region we're constructing embassies with.
Conquered Subjects:
Babylonian Empire
Imperial Persia
Dathomir
Kronas
Hexic
Gihok
Sinhala Lanka
Anarchic Communist Alliance
Confederacy of Independent States
Socialist Republics of Slovakia
Ranejaval
Grand Europa
The Roman Catholic Church
The Region Of True Communists
The new region is who I was referring to.
We broke off embassies with them for a reason. Did they finally ditch the fascists?
It doesn't look like it.
Everyone, look.
Antifa is now founderless. I wish I knew the password.
Actually you can privatize earth worms! It's being done as we speak! Bait for the great sport of fishing! Night and day? Well.. yeah i don't know.
It has 3 countries it's not even worth the struggle.
I don't think you realise just how true this statement is. The Tea Party originally formed as a rejection of neo-conservatism, but several prominent 'Tea Partiers' are just that, but do well to rub off a populist element. Sarah Palin, Paul Ryan, even Allen West... none of them are serious about reducing the size of government.
That is quite a mix!
I've made a proposition, and I'm hoping they'll accept. I was going to propose embassies with Gay, but they have ties to the FRA.
We cancelled embassies a few days ago on the premise that they're a fascist organisation. This is not the case. But they do work with them, unfortunately.
Three things Pev.
1. That's why I dislike the Tea Party. It's on my top 5 worst parties list.
2. What's wrong with the Founderless Regions Alliance?
3. They aren't fascist? That World Factbook Entry fooled me.
1. But surely they're superior to the corporate-controlled Republican base?
2. They're invaders in disguise. And they ruin the game, basically.
3. No, they're not. They ally with fascists to fight Communism, but they apparently hold similar political views to us.
1. Both are in my top 10 worst parties list. Tea Party ranks higher than republicans and Democrats though.
2. Defenders of defenseless regions.
3. Okay I put 1 and 1 together to get 2 then I put one and one together again and got 2 then I put 2 and 2 together.
2. This isn't true. Many of their 'liberations' have been, in fact, full-on invasions, such as the one in The Impact Federation last August.
3. What?
Is anyone actually recruiting? I guess I can send out more telegrams this week.
We desperately need to recruit. It seems like it's just you and me doing it.
Brill! I'll go buy some more stamps now.
Did you refound it?
It's a phrase. It's a play on "put 2 and 2 together. "
I refounded it after its residents CTE'd. But last August the FRA invaded it.
How does one refound a Region?
Was it's citizens CTE'd when it was invaded by the FRA?
One does not simply refound a region
It was invaded by the FRA in August 2013, and withdrew a few weeks later when the natives fought back. They locked the region and eventually all CTE'd. That's when I refounded it.
I am endorsing [Nation]Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes[/nation].
Why? Because I know exactly where he stands. While I may not see eye to eye with his non-interventionism, I do not have to worry about him flipping his script at any moment. I am also concerned about [Nation]Hallo Island[/nation] primary focus on gay rights. That is a non-issue im Libertatem, as we accept anyone of any ideology. We don't need someone who is infatuated with an issue that doesn't apply here, rather we need someone who can adapt to any situation that comes up.
These are not meant to be personal attacks Hallo, just constructive criticism. We can all use it, including me.
I will not be disappointed with either candidate, but I figured I would state my opinion on the matter.
I dislike both of them as candidates, and I too am concerned about [nation=short]Hallo Island[/nation] policy priorities and position changes, but he very mildly supports the War. That's not saying a whole lot, but I cannot vote for a non-interventionist.
Understood. It's a bit like playing with fire either way really.
If I only had the password to Antifa and The Internationale...
What a glorious day it would be!
Why? What have I ever done to you? Or anyone for the matter? I strive to be as active as possible and I have been on the Board for 3 months now and have only done good things. I don't understand the dislike I am getting.
....... Fighting Imperialism. With Imperialism.
Hahaha Yes. No. You can justify taking out the Internationale.
Anyways... I'll declare the DRP's support once I ask them 3 questions.
I sh*t you not, my AP government teacher just tried to justify progressive taxes through scripture. And when I confronted him he explained that that's an issue between me and God. Eventually he told us that it was just a "teaching method" and this wasn't what he really meant. I am so fed up with this propaganda sh*t fest they call a class. Everyday all we do is sit and listen to his emotionally charged monologues on what ever he feels like talking about. And when we do manage to get on topic the class is so skewed, biased, and irrational that it hurts just to sit there and listen.
Sorry for the rant, today's class left me rather disgruntled.
This crap is the problem with schools. I wish people would quit being irrational and think without the "god" crutch. Like seriously, why does your class need to hear about how taxes are related to scripture? He should get fired that is preposterous. Teach fact not faith.
The idea of taxation runs parallel to the scripture.
"Thou shall not steal!"
No.
While yes, all tax is theft, he could have used a different comparison. There may be jews, muslims, or atheists in Lack's class that don't care about scripture and don't really need a comparison like that when church-state separation is in place. Honesto, por favor.
Indeed.
I would of countered with that saying.
This is it^right here. The other day he talked about how American morals were crumbling because church attendance is dropping. He went as far as to ask that everyone who knew the Lord's Prayer to put their hand up, and when only around 1/3 did he claimed this was proof we need welfare. At this point my girlfriend expressed this was inaccurate and there are a plethora of secular charity groups (a number of which she is involved with) he simply brushed her off and said they weren't as prevalent. This class is so ridiculous it's amazing this man is allowed to hold this position.
I honestly want to come to your school and debate your teacher. You live in Ohio right?
Don't get me wrong, Grimes, I like you a lot, and would easily support you again as a leader in TFI, but in my view your position on the War is incompatible with the party. I'm by no means trying to push you out, but I'm a little surprised that someone against the War on Communism is in the RLP.
I believe in the war. I just don't think pipsqueak regions should be attack target because they are not even a threat and should just be left alone. I rally with the war on socialism and communism and everything else we fight against for the most part. It is the aggressive tactics that I just can't stand behind. But raiding to stop the spread of these ideals in bigger regions is fine by me.
When did I express dislike for the war?
No one is attacking you, RRRG. We are just deciding. I don't think it's a bad thing Hallo supports Gay Rights, he's gay. We're Libertarian, we support personal liberties. Whoop-a-fricking-doo. I would be fine with either candidate and look forward to supporting whoever wins the primary. I like RRRG as a person more, but I like Hallo's candidacy more. Thus, my vote.
Also, I am looking to get the Board even mor active if I am re-elected, and Hallo is more active than RRRG, it would seem.
I hope nobody's under impression that i think it's a bad thing that he's gay. I'm only saying that it seems like gay rights are his only real focus. That concerns me. He even made a party concerning such. The Anarcho-queer party or something similar. Being that i don't think any here has personally had a problem with him being gay, why is it such a big deal?
It's not necessarily about them being a pipsqueak region.. it's who they associate with. Many of them are part of the bigger regions.
I get on and find it hard to just jump in to conversations on the RMB because they have been going on for a while and everyone types a lot so it is more of a chore to me to read through it all rather than wait until it dies down a little bit.
Liking me more but liking his candidacy more doesn't make any sense.
He can like you as a person but not like your running position.
What he said.
That's why I said it would seem.
I - and by extension, ACOP, I guess - support Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes, whether he has the support of the RLP or not. I know where he stands, I know he's active, and I know the role he's played in regional politics. He is fit to retain his position.
Good to know I'm not the only one
If the RLP doesn't let him run under their banner, he can always join ACOP ;)
Why don't you like my running position? Just because I think sending people to take down a region of 3 communist countries is a huge waste of time and resources?
When I said it, I meant that would not really want to support a candidate who does not support gay rights. I am not militantly homosexual and trying to make everyone love gay people, am I? No. It is not my main focus. You cannot take my words and chop them up to make it sound like all I care about is gay rights. It is a private thing and my homosexuality is not at all my main my main focus in politics. Hell, its barely a focus for me at all here. You all believe in personal freedoms. So why would I worry about that here? You make me sound like I have this evil gay agenda where I want to turn everyone homosexual and have a freakin' parade, which obviously not the case. I have been here for five months, and this is the first time I have mentioned my sexuality at all. I'm not trying to be Libertatem's frackin' Harvey Milk. For the most part I have all of the same views as the rest of you, except I'm not as Gung Ho about invading every little peaceful region that has the tiniest the to a communist region, and even that is not a completely unpopular opinion. I don't have a huge gay agenda, but I support gay rights because I'm freakin' gay, is that all right with you guys?
I have chosen candidate for seat 3.... just waiting for Seat one candidates to answer.
Calm down, Hallo. We're not saying that at all.
Look, Pev - neither candidate is interventionist; both Hallo and RRRG believe in a greater degree of pragmatism and conservatism in how we use the resource that is our military. Supporting one over the other over this issue makes no sense whatsoever.
14 minutes ago: The People's Republic of Communist revenge of the region Reagan Rots In Hell proposed constructing embassies.
Now it is personal.
I also refounded Victims of Communism btw, as SOMEBODY's puppet got CTEd.
Nobody insults Reagan.
Quick question, why wouldn't Hallo Island go for seat 1 so the RLP can control the entire Board?
I sent a moderator report regarding the region, and hopefully they will investigate this troublesome embassy message. In the meantime, don't worry about it; I'm sure they're just trying to get a rise out of us.
I think everyone should take a look at this:
https://www.nationstates.net/region=libertarians
Thankfully the defenders league scared them off, but the retaliatory action taken by the NS leftis troubling.
CI, you should go over there and see if they need our assistance.
Post self-deleted by Pevvania.
I now have a clearer understanding of the policies of [nation=short]Hallo Island[/nation] and [nation=short]Ronald Reagan and Rick Grimes[/nation], and so I feel that it's best if I am not involved in this primary. I leave it to the members of the RLP to decide who will occupy Seat 3.
Regarding the new embassy request: relax. I find it really quite endearing that they'd go to this length to piss us off :) I've seen what the commies have said about him, and if I'm honest what they say warms my heart. I remember La Pas posting a while ago about how "Reagan destroyed the Soviet Union, a people's state formed by popular revolution!"
Their attacks on him make me respect him more and more.
Look at its RMB. Although I doubt any libertarian likes Anne Coulter (she once called libertarians wusses)
