Region: Libertatem
Animals have no right's but that is because they aren't sapient. Sapient beings that have intellect, reason, feelings and maintian relations like a human should have rights.
Wait. What kind of President do I strike you as?
Why should they protected under our laws? They should protect themselves under their own laws.
I refuse to have any 'sapient' pony living near us humans. Since we hunt them for food/sport, it wouldn't really work out.
1. Because they live in your nation should thus be protected.
2. Then deport Sapient Ponies with laws protecting them. Sapints are the only ones I care about. The other ponies can be hunted.
Deport them to nations with laws protecting them.
Obama
How?
Our nation is human, founded upon principles of humans. Ponies will not get ANY recognition from us. They are food. We eat them.
But they speak, act and feel like a human you still do it?
Can you deport the sapient ones to my nation...Deseret not D.W.S.M...as The D.W.S.M would kill them for being non-human.
In all honesty? Jimmy Hoover.
You Herbert?
They are abominations. They speak OUR languages. They should speak their own languages. They like to steal human characteristics and try to make them their own.
No, the sapient ones are usually more tender and delicious than the others.
I meant as in a mix between Jimmy Carter and Herbert Hoover. Jimmy's poor judgement and misguided idealism and Herbert Hoover's indecisiveness.
1. Isn't that a good thing? It allows Humans and them to cooperate better.
2. In real life if sapient ponies were treated like that I'd serve myself up so long as they all got rights.
As for this game it looks like I will have to use force. Is your nation on the Libertatem Map?
Misguided Idealism and Poor judgement?
I explained the insecisiveness I'm accused of is in fact not so as I have not changed my principles since may.
1. No, again they are trying to barge themselves into our culture without any remorse, or respect, for our culture and beliefs. Why would we have to work together, they are our dinner?
2. Should I serve you with some salt and pepper?
No, I am not on the map.
1. Do you know how well you guys could do if you cooperated with the sapient ones.
2. ...Sure....
3. Get some land. Then I'm invading. I'll save a species and gain some land.
The sapient ones are too few too be of any help too us. We must save the last of them for High-priced pony steaks.
Okay, knowing that, I will get an extremely large and out-of-position piece of land on the map.

1. What if...I purchased them from you?
2. Get the rest of The Middle East. Fits your name.
The steaks?? Good to know you finally turned around and decided to taste the deliciousness. Trust me, it will make you WANT more.
Nah.
I meant the Sapient Ponies...
but I mean... I'll try a steak.
HYPOCRITE! You fight for sapient pony equality and then turn around and want to eat them!!! WAIT UNTIL THEY HEAR THIS!!!!
Not a Sapient Pony steak, you said you also made steak from regular ponies. I want one of those steaks. I don't support making steaks out of the sapient ones unless the volunteer.
...since May. The last time I went through a serious political change was 2012, which was the same year I became interested in politics. There's no harm in changing your opinions, but you do it constantly to the point of triviality. This is especially problematic for views on regional policy. How do I know that if I vote for you as a candidate, I won't get somebody entirely different by the end of your term? And personally, I don't think you have the strength of judgement or foreign policy skills to be President.
Oh this election is for President....
I thought it was for board. Eh....Nevermind.
I don't change for triviality. I change based on how I think. If my opinions on something change due to proof it's wrong. I change.
But since we were talking about the sapient ones, you'd only assume that was what I was offering, not?
Naturally yes, I meant regular pony steaks seeing as Ive not had them. I should have specified.
Make sure all Sapient Ponies in your nation know. A nation supports them.
Come too our farms and tell them that.
Can I?
Better hurry, they are almost ready to be sent to the slaughterhouses.
Give me 2 days.
I'll be there to speak with them all.
Thoughts on Ted Cruz?
I think he is good. NS seems to disagree but I ALWAYS disagree with them.
Too conservative for my tastes.
Ted Cruz is too much of a Socialist for me.
I am *this* close, young man.
I was joking Humph.
I also like Ben Carson, Rand Paul, and Allen West.
NS is dominated by social democrats and eurocommies and should not be taken seriously.
I am currently boycotting NSG because of this lunacy. Maybe if we are lucky, the echo chamber will get so bored of ego stroking each other they'll go somewhere else.
I notice that what keeps them going is each other. There are SO many of them they think they automatically win the debates because their opinions are popular on the forums.
Yeah...
And they shut down news against them by popular opinion.
If you want more like company (or at least different company), there tend to be more conservative, libertarian, and monarchist types in International Incidents, Factbooks and NI, and Forum 7. Otherwise yes.
He's alright, I guess, but I don't trust anyone who worked under Bush. Sure, in public he opposes Obamacare and NSA surveillance... But I fear that he is a neocon.
I'm a big fan of Rand Paul. The others? Not so much. Ben Carson is just a guy that talks a good talk about being conservative. That's it. Don't know why Republicans are so excited by him. He supports gun control, too, which is never a good thing. Allen West is a slippery character that voted for the NDAA and is a big supporter of the Wars on Drugs and Terror. He's also not a very nice person.
Yet when empirical evidence is brought to the table, they dissipate. I've effectively shut down many threads this way. To paraphrase an overrated comedian, "Reality has a well-known libertarian bias."
I just keep finding myself cornered and conceding. Meh. :/
I state my belief and hit and run.
You never, ever, ever concede. Acknowledge a good point if you're pressed, but never concede, particularly on economic arguments. There's a wealth of sources out there that debunk every leftist claim ever made.
Couldn't seem to scrape up anything more.

Mostly because I am tired...probably of NSG in general. If you can't beat em, join em.
I have the idea of to make a new nation, introduce myself as a social democrat, and then use exaggerated arguments through that viewpoint. See what happens. :p Although I don't want to be found out and possibly warned or banned for trolling though.
Minerva I've done that before.
Since everyone supports Hamas over there I made some Socialistic, ro-Islam, Black Nationalist account. I can bring him into the region right now.
Let me guess...
Bring him in to confirm my thoughts.
Guess while I bring him in.

I haven't used him in a while. I WA thinking about putting him back on scene Friday.
TTA, have you read any Afrocentrist works?

It's screwy ethnocentric stuff. :p
Dear God. I hate ethnocentric crap. Just admit Europe and East Asia had the largest affect up till The cold war.
Hello my Fellow Chaps.
I am Lord Oaksworth. I am a British American (As in I left Britain for America) and a Proud Tory, not in the since of the Conservative Party but in the since I wish for a Resurrection of the Strong Monarchical power of the Royal family in Britain.
America wise I wish for a Return to the British Empire and the foundation of a Multi-Party system.
Like you already
Why thank you Northern Prussia. Another Country I wish that existed once more.
Greetings Lord Oaksworth. I don't think we have any British natives here (most of them are in The Commonwealth Of Democratic Nations) but I encourage you to stay a bit.
Are you a Thatcherite? What is your opinion on communism? Merely curious.
(Probably not now that I think about it, although the monarchy during the 1800s was quite laissez faire.)
Post self-deleted by Lord Oaksworth.
Communism is an idiotic ideology promoting the disruption of proper government for the sake of people who do not understand how to rule themselves. They believe that it is possible for all to be equal. Equality is impossible and people must learn to accept that fact. Any leftist ideology is simply revolutionist for the sake of being revolutionist. They hold no thesible beliefs.
Thatcherite? The ideology is not mine. The majority of it is okay, the Anti-Communism and Anti-Trade Unions ecspecially. The social conservatism as brought in later by the ideology is also rather fair. However the Anti-Toryism and the economy which is just a bit too free. Not saying it's bad; I would just prefer a lot more Intervention by the Royals and Parliament. A more State Capitalist system Macro-Management wise. Laissez- Faire Micro-Management wise.
Ah, you should love it here then. We are all about opposing communism, particularly it's seediest variant Marxist-Leninism.
Mmm fair enough. You see, this region is primarily dominated by, ah, classical liberals and other assorted radicals, although we have a fair amount of ideological diversity still. What you describe sounds somewhat distributist, which is fine.
Good. My personal opinion is that all varients of Socialism are bad and revolutionary to an extreme.
Distributist would be an accurate representation; However I don't use labels other than Tory/Monarchist.
Fair enough.

%&*# the black riders keep raiding my regions. I can't even leave it open for people to come or else they come in and destroy everything.
Perhaps we can strike a deal with Vandoosa to keep them away...
Doesn't work. Van even raided her own regions under TBR. "Striking a deal" is impossible, you either raid or not.
That was a joke, silly.
They're the Riders. They never stop. I know that.
Note to self: Use [/sarcasm] and [/joke] more often.
Is real wasabi too much to ask for? Dammit 'Murica.
I'll be using this nation to post here until my region stabilizes a bit.
Granted. Ben Carson isn't really for gun control. He just stated that he might understand why an assault weapons ban in major cities might work. He doesn't advocate real gun control.
To be honest, I really don't know an awful lot about Allen West, I just recently stumbled upon him. He seems pretty decent on many levels.
Our dear president is the most avoided in libertatem :(
Well, I am a collection of islands just floating about in the middle of the Atlantic, so I'm not surprised.
*chirp**chirp*
Good Morning.
Wassup, TTA?
I don't know who that is.
Hello Lord Oaksworth.
When it comes to international politics do you follow a Marxist, Realist, Liberal or Constructivist view?
Hey
'Ello. Welcome to 'Tatem. Buffet table is this way.
Thank you
Really, really, really quiet today. Heading out to the theater tonight, hope there is actual activity when I get back.
We need to have more ideological discussion, imo.
I support another Holy Christian Empire.
As do I.
Sounds cool.
Why was I banned?
Because we don't like you, Albul. You are a known spy.
You were ejected, not banned.
