Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
Oh no, I am totes invading. But I have two real objectives in an either-or fashion.
1. Occupy Medri Bahri, and attempt to incorporate it into my territory, thus keeping the Red Sea Jaslandian and Tserran, and by extension getting rid of any potential pirates.
or
2.Destroy the ports in Medri Bahri beyond recognition, thus more or less keeping the Red Sea Jaslandian and Tserran, and by extension getting rid of any potential pirates.
Not the French Toast Crunch! You monster!

A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
Jaslandia, The United Providences Of Perland
Sure, alright.
Another one bites the dust
Aldaur
If you need help with that, just let me know. I've been itching to bomb civilia- I mean, defend the ITF's interests.
Jaslandia, Pirate Kingdoms
Do you insist on being rude to everyone? Surely you have better things to be doing.
Merlinton, Yukona
It's his way to show affection.

I love you
Merlinton, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
I've noted it. I'm really very busy and will be till around late May.

I LOVE YOU MORE!

Jaslandia, Friedensreich, Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia
If you want you can get some "assistance" from a certain group I know. ;)
Penguania And Antarctica, Pirate Kingdoms
Tserra does not deal with terrorists. Tserra would not subject the honorable defenders of Medri Bahri to "assistance" as you call it. Tserra will fight with honor, win or lose.
Besides, someone has to avenge the French Toast Crunch, and that someone is gonna be me.
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Kalaron, Penguania And Antarctica, Pirate Kingdoms
I don't think a nation of honour like Tserra would, TBH.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Pirate Kingdoms
That's fine, but if you need me, you know where to call.
What about you, Pirate Kingdoms? You need some help?
Penguania And Antarctica, Pirate Kingdoms
lol at the double dealing.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, Pirate Kingdoms
*Screams*
'Sup Ald, how've you been?
You're under arrest, freak ;)
Yea' you should be warned about RP-Aldaur, he's...territorial
I wouldn't be going around "dealing" with other nations just yet, your already in high-water with me and...you should know...there's a little present coming in the mail
Jaslandia, Aldaur, Penguania And Antarctica
Probably in a little bit: I might have plans for the Ardayga to try and begin their own conquest of Medri Bahri, and odds are they might try to call for an alliance with other groups.
The irony of invading Medri Bahri to prevent pitacy is that Medri Bahri was the only region willing and able to actually combat the pirates. By harming them, the threat of pirates slipping into that section of the Red Sea will probably increase, especially when the two blockades are eventually forced to dissolve and try to continue supplementing the Free State Forces in their war.
Also, -grabs flamethrower and aims it at a stockpile of French Toast Crunch- good, my child, let the hate flow through you.
Jaslandia
That is some irony. The thing is though, piracy was not the primary motivation of this conflict. It was more of a justification.
Its like a guy living in a cul-de-sac. This guy, lets call him Frank, really likes garden gnomes, people come from all over to see his garden gnomes, but one of his neighbors has some rockin garden gnomes of his own. So in Franks jealousy, wanting all garden gnomage to himself he breaks out his own window, and blames it on his neighbors kid. Thus appearing justified Frank does the only sensible, and logical thing. He sets his neighbors house on fire, smashing his neighbors garden gnomes in the process. At best his neighbor has to move, because of the fire. At worst, Frank is the only guy with rockin garden gnomes in the cul-de-sac.
Also I will reply on the RP either late tonight, or tomorrow sometime.
Jaslandia, The Vidnoye, Pirate Kingdoms
Damn, Frank's really obsessed with garden gnomes :p Also, great, existence was enough to warrant this: feels like Al all over again.
Political candidates vetted in Nuremgard. Political freedom down and politicians swearing allegiance to their parties. Oops.
Should have gone with my first instinct and let voters decide the candidates.

b) Not a good day for tornados in Texas.
c) Yeah, let's shoot tear gas into the crowded stands of a stadium. What could possibly go wrong.

They're in Texas, they never have a good day. If they survive the rattlers, they'll have the old gun nuts in cowboy boots and hats to worry about. And don't even get me started about how hard it would be for me to have a good time in Texas. They'll probably try holding a lightning rod up to my head in a thunderstorm thinking it'll "cure me".

Yeah, it's the truth. We had to put her to sleep last night. Out of a sudden she got some kind of infarct or embolism. There wasn't much the vet could do but relieve her from her pain. Today we buried her in our garden.

Pretty good! Just been really busy lately! I finished being a Flight Commander for ROTC, I go accepted to do an internship with Aviation Week and the Institute on Economics and International Affairs. So I will be doing that and taking classes at George Mason and George Washington Universities in Washington DC this summer. Then I planned my trip to go to Italy after that. I also was taking my physical fitness assessment (PFA) and got a mild concussion from tripping and hitting my head on a concrete wall, so that was fun. I retook my PFA a few days later and did well on it. I've also joined TurningPointUSA and College Republicans, and so we've been planning and executing free speech rallys, inviting conservative speakers to campus and we are planning to have a victims of communism speech in 2 weeks. So that's what I've been up to :p Wbu?
Yea, the Aldauri would rather see our territory burned to the ground then let it be out of our hands. We will light the pacific ocean on fire and kill all the fish by nuking it and making it flammable with oil if need be :p

Not nearly as much as you lol; Been working on Independent Assignments, Finals, preparing for multiyear projects.
Although, I must admit, I don't know how much of the Pacific you think you control, and I'm not gonna argue, but I doubt other nations are going to continue allowing Aldaurian military presence to continue harassing vessels in international waters; and with Fried, S'long as he doesn't fly through your direct territories, he could always send trading vessels through or above Indonesia.

Yeah, welcome to the club pal!

You're not a loser mate, you just have to go out and do stuff :p Take a momentary break from NS to get stuff done :p Then come back lol
Are you in HS or college? I can't remember :p
The entire Pacific is an Aldauri dominion and is not international waters :p Though admittingly, we will only tax you in the southern pacific. We could do so in the North, but we kind of turn a blind eye tbh. We will sink all warships sailing anywhere in the pacific if they don't have our permission though. We take pur peacekeeping in the Pacific seriously.
As long as it is a non-military airplane, you can fly over the Pacific, it is fine. We only tax goods traded by sea in our waters (the whole Pacific ocean is ours :p). I will say though, that Indonesia is definitely not north enough for us to turn a blind eye and we will sink exiled ships. Better hug the coast until you reach the sea of Japan and sail across up there. If it's a warship though, our fleets will get you :p And if we happen to stumble on a trading vessel up there, we may or may not seize your stuff for not sailing without permission. This is the Aldauri way :p

I'm going to propose something that you might not want to do: convince me socialism is good. Personally, I believe in voluntarism, if I don't want to be associated with someone/something, I don't have to. I don't want to be part of a community (who knows, maybe I do). I'm not a hard right-wing libertarian, but definitely centre-right with some strong socialist policies but only in very certain areas such as education and healthcare
Aldaur
I'll try to, but you'll have to drop your prior ideas about socialism.
Aldaur, Yukona
We only want peace, so don't disrupt it :p
I am sure that is not true. You clearly have research skills (i.e. the important dates and holidays of each day for every year there is one), you must be an ample arguer if you're on NS. A lot of skills are gained just from playing NS. We all like you, so you have being amiable as a skill. There is plenty that you have, and that is just a few!
You also don't need talent or skills to be successful, just the right mindset. Believe you can do anything and be determined to do it!

I've read the Communist Manifesto, one of my favorite teachers was a Communist, I have quite a few Communist friends (I live in Portland), and all my classes have something to do with Marxism haha My mom also fled from a Communist country and my family has been fighting Communism for 3 generations. Trust me, ik what Communism is.
Jaslandia, Magnatronia
I don't think you do, or else you would know that Communism is not socialism (rather an extreme version of socialism), the USSR, Warsaw Pact, and the PRC =\= Communist. In addition, you would know that there are dozens more communist ideologies and thinkers than just Lenin, Marx, and Mao. For example, Kropotkin (my personal favorite), Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, and Bakunin.

Ik I quoted your thing about socialism, but in my mind, I was responding to this:
Marx is communism, not socialism. Also, the end goal of socialism is to reach communism. However, I know therr are plenty of people who just want to stop at socialism, or at least that is what they say. It is still unpopular to call yourself a full fledged communist in America.
You say those states don't equal communism, which is true if you are trying to create it in it's purest form. But nothing can be pure, as reality corrupts everything. All communist states will inevitably end in totalitarian states with massive governments attempting redistribution. One could make the same argument about Fascism as well. It has never been tried in it's purest form, but that's because it can't. Like communism, they will end up as totalitarian states with big governments.
Now we have places like Scandinavia, which people hail as a center of socialism or democratic socialism. However, this is very far from the truth. The fact is, they are very capitalist countries with social welfare programs. In fact, having social welfare programs was a tactic of capitalists to get rid of socialists because then the State would be taking care of it's citizens and socialists couldn't complain about anything. See Bismarck for an example. So if you just want more social programs, that doesn't make you a socialist. I want there to be social programs, and I am vehemently capitalist. Albeit, I want to reform how those social programs work, but that's a different discussion.
Now I have huge gripes with both Communism and Socialism, as I see them as attempts to restrict liberty, something I find important. I believe in a small but strong and active government. While the government certainly has a role, such as protecting life, liberty, privacy and property, I do not believe taking from someone else and giving to another is an equitable policy, nor is it compatible with liberty. That is not the social contract that I signed. Rather, the government should help people create their own things to fulfill their needs and desires, not take away from others. That's my take on it.
Magnatronia
Do you have a factbook/dispatch one may peruse?
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Yukona
OOC and IC I would totally agree. A lot of center-rightists come off as wishy washy, but not you dude.
Aldaur
Nope, back in the ESU we've used our forums for this matter.
Penguania And Antarctica, Magnatronia
Kroptokin was anarchist, not communist. (gimme dat bread book)
Communism is a form of socialism, like anarchism.
OOC I am a Right Wing Progressive (I am taking the word progressive back since the right thought of it :p), which I means I believe we should progress towards liberty, not less. I have a mantra, that if you want to truly be free, all you need it property and a gun :p You could also say that I am a Lincoln, Roosevelt and Eisenhower Republican.
IC though, I am a legalistic totalitarian monarchy lol
Magnatronia
You believe anarchism is a form of socialism?
I don't agree with the gun stuff, or Eisenhower/Roosevelt, but I see where you're coming from.
Jaslandia, Aldaur
Socialism is any system in which the people own the means of production. In an anarchism, the people own the means of production.
Vista Major, Penguania And Antarctica
I have a bad feeling about this
Jaslandia, Aldaur, Penguania And Antarctica
Post self-deleted by Unfallious.
The socialism referred to in orthodox Marxist literature isn't the same as socialism the overarching category. In Marxism socialism is the transitional phase between capitalism and communism, but it's also a catch-all term for systems like communism, anarchism, syndicalism, etc.
Aldaur, Vista Major
First of all, guys, listen to this mixtape of 80's music I made for my graduating class of 2017. I made it and plan to give it out in CD form, kinda like a going away gift!

Second, can someone help me? I encountered this homeless dude on the street walking back to my house, and he asked if I could spare change. Note, I always feel incredibly obligated to give people in need whatever I can spare. If I don't I feel god awful after. I was bringing back groceries, and I had two bags of oranges and a bag of candy almonds. I got all of them for my mom for mom's day, obviously. Me being quick to help him, I gave him the bag of almonds, since I had no spare change. But now I feel guilty because I COULDA GIVEN HIM A BAG OF ORANGES. Ugh, and it's really killing me. Do any of you guys have a guilt complex? How do you deal with it?

We have a huge homeless problem here in Portland, so I am probably not the best person to ask about feeling bad about hobos. We have so many services here it is ridiculous that someone would be on the street, yet here they are. They are either drug addicts or crazy. We know this because the people who just fall on hard times get free housing, no questions asked here. One of the hobos tried to mug me the other day as well. I wouldn't feel bad at all if I were you. You didn't have to give him anything, but you did. So you're a good person. Just don't do that here in Portland, because they would beat you up and taken your groceries.
Yukona
i hate poor people :)
Russian Fedration
Then is there a forum thread one may peruse?
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Yeah I find a lot of the time they don't have to be homeless but their addictions or mental state make them be
Aldaur
what do you need it for?
We need to put them all in either drug rehabilitation centers or mental institutions to get help. And ik mental institutions get a bad wrap, but I am not talking about shutting them away from society and experimenting on them. I actually mean a place to help them and give them a place to stay so they aren't wandering around committing crimes and harming others or themselves, which they do quite frequently.
Yukona, Magnatronia
The details of what the devil you're talking about! You know, a breakdown of what you're looking for, what the guidelines are, what the process is. Something that one may record in a factbook, dispatch, or forum post so as to disseminate said information to curious minds.

I'd like to participate but unfortunately the songs I considered as entries are somewhat populare over here in Germany. They also a bit older (80s). So I don't know if that's a hindrance.
I can't tell whether you're trying to bait me, or if you're genuinely this heartless. At least Aldaur gave a decent reason for his position towards homeless people.
I appreciate the well thought-out response, Ald. And I would actually agree that no one should HAVE to give them anything. But Miami isn't exactly Portland (assuming Portland, Oregon), so we don't have as many venues available to the homeless. So you see a lotta amputees and such asking for money. Though this one dude swindled me outta 5 bucks because he pretended to have Parkinsons. I go out of my way to ignore him now because A. That was dishonest and gives the homeless an even worse reputation and B. My grandmother died while suffering from Parkinson's. But most people here seem genuinely in need. Some even sell water and soda? I like those dudes especially.
Merlinton, Aldaur
Don't judge me, knave

being homeless because you failed the arbitrary state educational system

ok guy you just give him some almonds i'm sure that fvcking helped

AYYYY LMAO

Genuinely heartless. I hope they stay poor too, sure does feel good to have wealth I didnt work for!
Kropotkin is an anarcho-communist, much like Bakunin and Pierre Joseph Proudhon were. Modern day AnCom takes inspiration from Bakunin and especially Kropotkin.
