Region: Libertatem
Indeed, but the motivation of that tag raid wasn't our disapproval of their beliefs, or even because they're enemies of ours. The motivation was their aggression and imperialism towards weaker, non-combative regions that happen to have a different ideology. Namely, their savagery towards Benevolent Capitalism was particularly vile.
Democrats are cool as long as they don't touch my wallet. :p
Indeed.
Well, I think they know how it feels to lose control of a region now. They cannot seem to hide their embarrassment.
Not to mention their aggression towards other leftist regions that deviate even the slightest from their narrow view of the world.
But... isn't that pretty much all they do?
Also since you are in the WA I encourage you to endorse our new president, Miencraft.
Yeah, that too. In their circles I hear talk of "leftist unity", yet not one of their allies raised even a finger in their defense in the 90 minutes we held Das Kommune. Perhaps those regions feel the same way about them.
I'm not a scholar or anything, but I see taxes as a non-optional social convention that has been created by this society and government. It is essential. If we would have started a little differently, it would be different, but it's not.
How do I do that?
Depends. Like Republicans, Democrats are a pretty big base that may encompass everything from moderate Labour-esque socialists to blue dog conservatives, and of course the "Liberty" Democrats which are like classical liberals.
Look up Mike Gravel, who was a former Democrat turned Libertarian.
Click on the link of our president on the top of the page (next to the delegate tag), and then scroll to the bottom where it says "endorse" and click that.
A lot of what we spend our money on is waste. The Libertarian idealizes a society that isn't built on government coercion, and idealizes the self regulating mechanic found in capitalism as a better alternative to government intervention. The government's job is therefore to make sure the three basics of society function: the police, military, and courts.
The secret service has transferred it's service to Miencraft?
Forget the question mark.
I didn't know we even had a secret service captain, much less one who doesn't want to see North Korea condemned.
Whatever. He's in the WA and endorsing Mien, so I don't really care if he's either one of ours or controlled by an enemy as a puppet. What we should really be looking at are those who just hang around in the region, don't say anything, and just gather influence.
That would be half our region, then.
I thought I had a longer time to be with hump. Goes to cry in the corner being humps former office.
I run the private presidential secret service.
Hump?
Our Martyred President
Humpheria, the recently resigned Sixth President of Libertatem.
Oh, makes sense. He was the one that sent me a message earlier today asking to come here.
25% at most.
another 25% are friends that don't speak much or at all on the RMB but we can trust them. Example: Islands, A Voluntary Society, Milteria Pax Osca, Space Pirates, RR&RR now
Another 25% are puppets of everyone else. Ex: Silver Chair, GalactiCorp, Coolidgestein, Abe Licoln, His Honor the Dude,
The last 25% are active people who speak regularly on the boards.
Abe is the puppet tta used to insult Lincoln and the union.
I have just returned from the real world.
As I am now in control, it seems only natural that the Oath should be taken as soon as possible.
Whenever you see fit, Mister Attorney General, make the positions of myself and Roads official.
I know.
I dislike the Confederacy as a Northerner (hypocrites by large) but I have no love for the statist Abe Lincoln.
What do you guys think?
You got it.
I request RMB silence, please.
Agreed.
Anyway, I'm about to administer the Oath. Hang on a sec...
RMB silence begins now.
Please repeat after me. I, Miencraft, do solemnly swear to protect, defend, and uphold the Constitution of Libertatem. I swear to execute the will of the People of Libertatem within the rightful extents of the law. I affirm that it is my solemn duty to defend Libertatem from all threats, foreign and domestic, to uphold the integrity of the region. I promise to uphold these obligations understanding the sanctity of my office, so help me God.

I elect to abstain from swearing by God, however.
Congratulations, Mr. President.
So, there is a new president now?
Indeed there is.
Now, I do believe I have to make official Roads' position, unless that too was done by the AG last time.
I can't even remember what happened last month...
Your line was "Thank you, Mr. Attorney General", but I'll take it.
This is the part where you swear in your Cabinet.
Right then. I'll get on that soon. Eating food now, so...
Any idea when we will be holding the special election for Board Seat #5?
No one ran against you. Right now, you're in it. Congratulations, and welcome to the Board!
Woot! That's my kind of election! ;-)
Er... Thank you Mr. Attorney General.
I support the confederacy on the grounds the North was going beyond it's constitutional powers by enacting acts such as the Missouri Compromise, Monroe Doctrine, and Kansas-Nebraska Act.
*sigh* Disregard my earlier requests for RMB silence. Just...talk amongst yourselves or something. We'll get the entire Cabinet sworn in later, hopefully within the next few hours.
I know you were trying to be formal there, but that made me laugh - the Board doesn't need to be sworn in or any of that stuff, so don't worry. :)
Our founding documents say all men are created equal meaning all people not just white men.
Just to make this quick, since everyone takes the same oath;
Vice President and Manager Roads, General Pevvania, Manager Lack, and Mister Attorney General, please just copy this with your name in the blank as soon as possible.
I'm not going to bother copying it four times with different names, since it's the same oath. Let's just get to this.
I, ____, do solemnly swear to protect, defend, and uphold the Constitution of Libertatem. I swear to execute the will of the People of Libertatem within the rightful extents of the law.

Oh well. Which Article in the constitution does it allow the Government to free slaves until the 13th amendment which was not there during that time.
By your logic It is constitutional law almost to have welfare.
Equal under the law not economics.
Thank you.
I'm sorry guys for breaking the silence but I need to teach this racist a lesson.
Silence is already broken, man.
You can try to make the Civil War all about slavery all you like, considering many "historians" are attempting to do the same. The South would not have had my support, but I would not have stood with the North either. The fact of the matter is that an oppressive federal government took away the southern states' rights to peaceably secede. Lincoln is not a harbinger but a traitor to Republican principles due to his disregard of states' rights.
Again last I checked that was not allowed still by way of a constitutional articles until the 14th amendment when it said they had "Equal protection under the law"
I'm sorry but the north violated southern right's and stepped outside those boundaries.
...I'm not a rasicts. I would have supported the freeing of the slaves. ON THE BASIS OF POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY!
I support states rights and the Confederacy because of that issue but I don't support slavery like tta.
You're missing something: TTA does not support slavery.
I don't support Slavery. it is slavery though that led to the issue of the State's rights.
The south was extremely racist until like the 80 so you support freeing the slaves in 1980?
I believe that when rights are threatened the feds must act. Most issues that the states today and back then whined about were economic like the high import tax.
I honestly have no idea what you are even saying anymore. I have never seen any mass racist activities all of my 17 years down here.
A vocal minority of Southerners were (and are), maybe. I theorize that in an alternate universe, the Confederacy would have ended slavery within twenty years of their formation were they not to lose (or participate in) the Civil War.
They'd be free wouldn't they and the war wouldn't have happened would it?
If the North could have made it a constitutional amendment first and then had the South Seceded I would have supported the North, but they didn't.
1980 was a guess. I guessed that because there was segregation until 1960.
Yeah. During the days leading up to the Civil War, the North was largely apathetic to slavery, though they were in the process of slowly phasing it out.
Jefferson Davis wasn't even a Racist. He thought since the slaves he had were treated great like other family members he believed everyone did that.
My grandfather was born and raised in Mobile and he lived there in the height of the segregation movement. He marched with black leaders. He served in Vietnam with four black men and they stayed in touch until they had all died. Of course all southern people are racist, right?
As soon as Albenia regains citizenship here (When will that be?) I am refounding the DRP Under it's New Face. The Face of Libertarian Reactionary Priciples
No, I didn't say that. But I am thinking that if most were not racist at that time then the people would have striked down segregation threw there state legislature. So it's either 51% and up were racist or most did not vote.
In order for Albenia to gain citizenship, it will need to be here for a month as a diplomat, since it CTE'd last time it was here and had its citizenship revoked as a result.
And also Roads will be in charge of IA by then, so you'll of course go to him for it.
And it's goddamn "its" not "it's".
"It's" is a contraction, man.

It's citizenship shall be restored when its here for a month? Why do you revoke citizenship due to a nation's CTE? Shouldn't there be like a month grace period?
The month grace period is the month where you don't CTE, man.
I mean, it's really up to Muh when he wants to restore its citzenship, but that's the way I would do it were I IA, and I think Muh might do something similar.
And yes...those grammatical errors are on purpose Mien.
I could tell because they were switched around and not both the same.
My God this region so goddamn bureaucratic. What the hell happened to the government 1 month ago when Albenia was able to regain citizenship after the trial...Which I can't even remember us having...Did we ever have that trial
Anyways I'm done talking about America's dark period. I support the south today and nothing else matters. I am neutral on the civil war. Both sides had faults plus my german side of the family were not in america until maybe 10 years after the war ended.
Albenia wasn't classed as a diplomat then...
Or maybe it was, but the restoration through the justice system generally bypasses the waiting time.
But just because of something that happened almost two centuries ago, you find it fitting to insult and defame my society and my culture. What if I just started throwing the true motives of the North at you? How they were too interested in their own monetary benefits. How they masqueraded behind the loving, caring hearts of a population to secure a statist empire? How they used the collective wealth of the people, the poor starving people, to crush the voices of the dissenters because one man with a scraggly beard made a pretty speech. You call my people racist, as if you would know.
I call for a special board vote to give tta citizenship with no waiting period. Tta has waited long enough.
Then the hell was he classified as. An official citizen? To be honest I think we were planning on having the retrial then instating citizenship on Albenia.
Not that it matters since we never did fricken do the darn trial. For all I'm concerned I'm still here illegally and only turuly allowed here under a puppet because of Humph's little orders, which I'd assume go null and void when he leave, which he has.
We did have the trial, though, it's in the Criminal Records.
And, hey, that TG is long gone, so I have no idea if you checked the box or not. All I know is you got citizenship on it because you won it in an appeal, and then you managed to give it up again.
Also. some Political History of My Family.

1800s-1940s [Lost data]
1940s-2008 [Republicans]
2008-Present [Mostly Republicans with a mix of Libertarianism (Me and my dad)]
Northern faults ^. the south was racist not any more
I don't think the Board can give someone citizenship.
Then again, at the current time we have no IA manager, so...
Wow, Mike Gravel is one liberal I can get behind. If only the Democrats were as principled as this guy.
Oh wow this RMB moves fast..
...lemme look/
Only because there's
1) New President
2) Something to discuss
Usually just sits for a couple of minutes, but sometimes it'll do this.
Really did this a lot back when the RLP Tyranny was a thing.
We've got an active membership!
Oh! Iwaku RMB almost always moves fast.. I collect all the cute spammy nations!
MPA vs. RLP ah one of my most joyous times on thsi game.
2 hours ago: The Democratic Peoples Republic of Vandoosa of the region Glorious Nations of Iwaku proposed constructing embassies.
I wonder if this will be possible by the way..

O and by the way I hate the north it is full of Socialist Millitant Atheists. That's why I plan on moving to the south one day. I am not against either region both he their faults. I prefer the south because of its economic beliefs and I can be Christian without hate.
Move to New Hampshire with me Amarican. It's full of Libertarians. And beer.
Weird.. I am from the South and would like to move to the North to escape from religion.. We should trade places! Also I want more Winter.. South too hot..
Nevermind I lied.
I living in the north*
As a Libertarian Noninterventionist Agnostic, I feel offended...
that this is such an accurate depiction of the north.
Hello! Would you please spare me a moment to talk about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Can you call a helicopter down to JFK so they can pick me up and move me to NH?
But the north is cold. Can't libertarians move to Virginia or something so I have the best of both worlds?
