Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
Hope everyone is enjoying the New Year, but I just want to let everyone know I decided to switch from Internal to foreign affairs. I don't need to say much as you all know my experience in that position. I've learned a lot over my time in the Foreign Affairs Ministry, from the beginning in the CFN to our dramatic changes and keeping in touch with our allies. I've have seen a lot over the last 2 years with you all. Maybe not as much as papa Jaslandia but enough to say we've endured alot, and we have stuck together, even If it isn't quite as strong as the good old days. I know that I want to help, I joke about" retirement", but I miss doing good for you all. #Oel4MoFA

Excellent point

For a Safe and Securer Society, with Unity and Equality. I will make sure that our alliances will stand strong and that all parties will be treated equally. We must stay strong if there are to be turbulent times ahead. Minnesota Dakota for Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Quote of the day
New Year's Day. A fresh start. A new chapter in life waiting to be written. New questions to be asked, embraced, and loved. Answers to be discovered and then lived in this transformative year of delight and self-discovery. Today carve out a quiet interlude for yourself in which to dream, pen in hand. Only dreams give birth to change.

Hey Nuremgard.
I got your "Vexing VAT" issue. I took the option which reduces taxes for the poor and increases them for the rich. :D
Nuremgard, Jaslandia
Good man. :)
But I have noticed that if you abolish VAT altogether, income tax goes up.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
I didn't. So, I think I'm doing good, no?

It's the choice I took with Nuremgard too.

Anyway. How are you, pal?
Nuremgard
I'm alright, how are you?
Penguania And Antarctica
Doing alright. Survived the New Year's celebration. And I must say that 2018 doesn't feel different then 2017. :P
Nuremgard
New Years never feel different to the old one. Just another day.
Penguania And Antarctica
That's why I don't believe in New Years resolutions. You can change your life any day. Doesn't need to be a specific date.
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Axeldonia
A good way to think.

Do you do resolutions?
No because I'd never stick to them.
Penguania And Antarctica
I think most people do not stick to their resolutions. Humans are lazy. :P
Nuremgard
And fickle. You wouldn't believe how many times I've sworn off newspapers. Want to know how well that's going? I'm reading one right now.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Hehe :)
I like newspapers. Mostly.
I hate most of them. And the comments are worse. Because when you read some of the inane stupidity, vacuousness and bile in many of them, it scares me to think these people can vote.
But then it perfectly explains why Britain is such a nasty little sh!thole when it comes to politics and why Tory governments keep winning.
Governments are reflections of the people that elect them.
Penguania And Antarctica
Good
Penguania And Antarctica
Well, I usualy just read the regional newspaper because we have a subscription to it. It's called "Volksstimme" (People's Voice). A pretty unique name among the newspaper names in Germany if I may add.
Nuremgard
I hope Jeff Sessions is crying right now.
Oelesa
I typically read the Herald and Guardian (both of which are sycophantic establishment rags) and The National, Bella Caledoia and Wings Over Scotland for my pro-indy stuff.
Penguania And Antarctica
For me, I sometimes watch Secular Talk, but mostly just read BBC News, The Atlantic, The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Vox.
Don't bother with BBC News. It's the British government's propaganda outlet.
I mostly read it for international and US coverage, so I don't think that's a problem for me.
Nice! Which option did you go with?
Penguania And Antarctica
Well, we just hear or read what we want to hear or read. To show understanding of the opposite side is what we rarely do because what we think and believe is the utmost right. Isn't it?
Yup. You can read whatever you want to confirm your own biases and prejudices. That's just what humans do. We all think we're right and everyone else is wrong/stupid. Humans are arseholes. But people who are right-wing are definitely bigger arseholes.
Lucky you.
And when we lack of arguments we insult each other or get into bar fights.
Nuremgard
Aye, that's how it is.
Penguania And Antarctica
Like that guy who called us all cucks and left the region after staying here for a few days.
What other news networks should I also not read?
Nuremgard, Jaslandia, Lex Caledonia
I heard that Scottish people get really quickly into fights. Is that true?
Yup. Cuck is such a funny word for a right winger to use. They're in thrall to corporate interests yet us lefties are the cucks.
Better to be a cuck than a corporate c*cksucker.
I'm not going to tell you which news outlets to avoid. I know I told you to avoid BBC but whatevvs. Read whatever you want.
A stereotype. I'm sure there's bars in every country where people get into fights quickly.
If you want to get into a fight quickly up here, go into an Orange Lodge and shout "f*ck the Queen!" In fact, you might not make it out alive if you did that.

Business Insider, Sputnik and PopSci are all to be avoided IMO.
What makes Business Insider that bad? I know Sputnik and PopSci are pretty bull, but what about BI?
Seems those people never heard about the monopoly on violence.
Vetriutan 2
At least we all know that Peng is an anarchist in the making. Isn't that right?
What do you mean?
Same.
BI tends to be pretty uneducated as to the nature of military programs, and they unfortunately miseducate people as a result. In short; whereas Sputnik purposely does it, BI unintentionally does it.

Eh? I don't speak Frat.
How did you answer the thing?
You want me to tell you how I answered every question? lol
No, just give me a general feel for how you answered in regards to some of the most important parts of the test to you.
My responses were generally liberal. I believe the state should provide for the basic needs of its citizens, that it should responsibly regulate private industry, that only trained individuals should carry guns. I believe LGBT rights should be taught in schools, I believe people should conduct their private lives however they see fit so long as nobody is harmed. And I said that immigrants are free to f*ck off elsewhere if they didn't like our culture.
Vetriutan 2
And that apparently means that you hate your people and have no spine.

Oelesa, Yukona
Yup. I'm not a gun-totin', liberal-hating, gay-hating, immigrant-hating, neoliberal, authoritarian c*nt so I am a cuck.
I am quite happy being a cuck.
Yukona
I acknowledge it. It's the right way.
How can you hate liberals and be a neoliberal at the same time?
T R I G G E R E D
Penguania And Antarctica
Liberal in the American sense is anyone remotely on the left or anyone who espouses socially liberal values. Neoliberal is an economic term which means unbridled, unregulated capitalism. Most of the time, modern Cons in both the UK and US are not liberal in the social sense but they are neoliberal in the economic sense.
Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
But you're not American, so why would you use the American definition of liberalism? That's like me using the Chinese definition of socialism (which isn't socialism).
Because most Conservatives in the UK are socially authoritarian like their American counterparts. You'll probably find many Tories in Britain who are socially liberal but the majority of the party are socially backward dinosaurs.
Yukona
Socially conservatives, yet still wanting 10 out of 10 titties on page three.
Trust me, the Cons in Westminster prefer their females without titties.
Penguania And Antarctica
It only makes sense.

Wealth Mentality? What the h*ll does that even mean? It takes a lot more than a mentality to become wealthy. Or is this referring to metaphorical wealth? Jesus, it sounds like something out of a Tai Lopez video.
