It's possible that they weren't referring to the videogame. 50/50 chances here. Depends on how the mods see it.
Creeperopolis
Not only do I find that highly unlikely, as it's a pretty common phrase, but that's not something the mods will pounce on.
The pretitle is the only thing I can see them maybe caring about, but still a stretch given their precedents, imo.

I don't think that I'll continue this further, since it is 2:35am and my eye circles are darkening, and my head feels like it'll fall off of my neck. Goodnight.

Night
Creeperopolis
Hey!
First of all, mornin', (yes, I beat Iandrul to it,) and second, NS moderators actually did something about it. They changed Arizona's pretitle, motto and currency. I don't care if I wasn't completely right, I'm just glad I'm not in trouble after Quebecshire gave me doubts about my complaint's validity.
Creeperopolis
Good morning everyone

The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in advanced countries, but they have destabilized society, have made life unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to indignities, have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in advanced countries. The industrial-technological system may survive or it may break down. If it survives, it MAY eventually achieve a low level of physical and psychological suffering, but only after passing through a long and very painful period of adjustment and only at the cost of permanently reducing human beings and many other living organisms to engineered products and mere cogs in the social machine. Furthermore, if the system survives, the consequences will be inevitable: There is no way of reforming or modifying the system so as to prevent it from depriving people of dignity and autonomy. If the system breaks down the consequences will still be very painful. But the bigger the system grows the more disastrous the results of its breakdown will be, so if it is to break down it had best break down sooner rather than later. We therefore advocate a revolution against the industrial system. This revolution may or may not make use of violence; it may be sudden or it may be a relatively gradual process spanning a few decades. We cant predict any of that. But we do outline in a very general way the measures that those who hate the industrial system should take in order to prepare the way for a revolution against that form of society. This is not to be a POLITICAL revolution. Its object will be to overthrow not governments but the economic and technological basis of the present society. In this article we give attention to only some of the negative developments that have grown out of the industrial-technological system. Other such developments we mention only briefly or ignore altogether. This does not mean that we regard these other developments as unimportant. For practical reasons we have to confine our discussion to areas that have received insufficient public attention or in which we have something new to say. For example, since there are well-developed environmental and wilderness movements, we have written very little about environmental degradation or the destruction of wild nature, even though we consider these to be highly important.

Zombie Apocalypse: *breaks out in America*
Conservative American redneck-ass country bumpkin republikins: *all prepared with their guns and stuff, ready to shoot the literal snot out of the zombies*
In the meanwhile, NYC, LA and Chicago librols, in their crowded cities:
"GREEN LIVES MATTER!"
"YOU RACIST NAZIS!!!"
"JUST BECAUSE THEIR SKIN IS GREEN DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE NOT HUMANS!!!"
Also the librols: *infected*

Bruh, you think living in darkness for 6 f%&*ing months is fun?!
Creeperopolis, Kratoriana Nation
I think the pandemic has proven proves the more likely respond to be conservatives refusing to shelter inside or take any discovered preventative measures. I don't think hunting rifles or even an AR-15 would prove very long-term effective in the end times.

Is this supposed to be an own
Creeperopolis, Quebecshire
It was a joke but COVID-19 is just something the Republicans found harmless because of right-wing media.
If the left-wing media reported coronavirus to be essentially harmless, then things would have been turned around.
And zombies are honestly different than a superflu, anyway. I mean, a drastic change in skin color would already be a warning to both sides.

Creeperopolis, Muldul
Leftists tend to be more in tune with reality than right wingers, so I don't know why the "denying reality" hypothetical is being switched. Plus, most zombies in television just have greyed skin, not just turning green. Plus, people aren't a new race when they sunburn, so nobody would really act like it's a new race. Lastly leftist =/= liberal.
Creeperopolis, New Makasta
In television.
In real life, if this happened, green skin is still a possibility. And I'm sure zombies have many other physical features that would signal nonhuman state, and if those won't do it, social traits most likely will (moaning, inability to speak or think like a normal person, etc). And if zombies could run, we could be screwed. Unless their legs rotted.
And liberals aren't leftists. I know. But I was referring to the left wing media in general, and since liberals are still mostly on the left wing, the liberals probably would have trusted it.
Don't tell me right-wing media is entirely incapable of making a point. I prefer centrist and unbiased media, but Conservative media (occasionally) can report the truth or make a good point.
Creeperopolis
Name three left-wing media outlets, bonus points if they're actually mainstream.
Creeperopolis, New Makasta
I can't tell if this was
A) Serious
B) Sarcasm
C) A joke.
or:
D) All of the above.
Creeperopolis
CNN, FOX, TheOnion
Creeperopolis, Malgax
only th middle oneis left wing
Creeperopolis
Name them, then.
CNN is liberal, and they're very much capitalist. FOX is just openly write wing... and The Onion is satire.
Creeperopolis
But are you asking me to name them as a serious question? Or like, were you joking? Or were you being sarcastic?
Creeperopolis
Serious, go
Creeperopolis
Mother Jones, The Chicago Tribune and Vox.
Never mind, replace Vox with POLITICO.

I hate CNN... that's why I included it.... Those bastards

Creeperopolis, Muldul
ok
Creeperopolis, Muldul
1) Mother Jones is a magazine, not mainstream media reaching millions of people easily, but sure, they're center-left.
2) The Tribune literally published two op-eds saying "don't turn him into a martyr yet" and "don't assume 13-year-olds are inherently harmless" after the cops shot a 13-year-old kid.
3) Vox is center-left, but the same things as mother jones, except more YouTube.

Firearms would be useful, but social infrastructure and mutual aid will be the most important things.
Creeperopolis, Muldul
no your mostly harmless
(please tell me someone got ths joke)
Creeperopolis, Muldul
It doesn't matter, obviously a 13-year-old can theoretically harm someone. But, if your reaction to a 13-year old getting executed is "WAIT A SECOND, HE MIGHT NOT HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN INHERENTLY HARMLESS", I think we both know what you're actually saying.

But, like, do any issues I write get submitted to be an actual issue in the game? I'm sure it has to get approved, or something. Otherwise, we'd have 20,000,000 different issues, and half of them would be nonsense or spam.
Creeperopolis, Quebecshire
There are editors, and most issues are drafted on the forums prior to submission.
Also, unless they changed this since 2016, you can't do issues until your nation's population exceeds 500 million or something.
Creeperopolis, South Alderton
Alright. But I'd rather be credited for my own idea, so would I be?
I'm going to have to boost my population fast, by the way.
Creeperopolis
Eminople on the endo-tarting grind
Issues credit people, yes. You can also make authorship dispatches, like this one by Honeydewistania (get pinged lol)
Also, nation population goes up at a constant rate of 5-7 million per day, at least at your point.

Alright. I'm just asking because when I got the issue, The Leader Meme, I thought of a fifth option where popular online memers and maybe a few influencers could be bribed to brainstorm ideas for memes and post those memes distracting the Aldertonian population from the leader meme, including memes about the leaders of enemy countries.

Creeperopolis, Quebecshire, South Alderton

Creeperopolis
I don't see a button saying that in Issues.
Creeperopolis
