Hello fellow comerades,
I am excited to introduce myself as the United Socialist States of Provlakia. I am a close ally with Slavnicia and believe that we can grow the Communist Bloc and have a handhold of the world.

Requirements

There are two requirements you must meet to gain citizenship:

- Having a nation located in The Communist Bloc

- Owning a World Assembly (WA) nation. The location of your WA nation does not matter.

To submit your citizenship application, you will need to create an account for our forums.

Creating a Forum Account

---

To create your forum account, follow these steps. The process will be demonstrated with screenshots.

1. Navigate to tcb.red and press the register button in the top right.

Screenshot

2. Fill out the registration form. It is highly recommended that you attach your account to an email you use specifically for NationStates purposes to ensure the privacy of your personal information.

Screenshot

3. You will see this message, which means a confirmation email has been sent to the email address you provided in step two. Open that email's inbox, find the confirmation email, and select the "Confirm your email" button. If you do not see a confirmation email, check your spam folder.

Screenshots

4. You will be redirected back to the forums, where you should see a confirmation message.

Congratulations, you've successfully created an account on our forums! If you experience any technical difficulties during the creation process, you can ask for help troubleshooting by joining our official Discord and pinging @Masking.

Submitting an Application

---

Now that you've created your forum account, it's time to submit your citizenship application! The process is very simple and will once again be demonstrated by screenshots.

1. Go to the Naturalisation Office subforum.

Screenshot

2. Click the button in the righthand corner which says "Post Thread.".

Screenshot

3. The page you will use to submit your citizenship application will appear. First, create your title in the "Citizenship Application: NAME" box. It should be in that format. Secondly, introduce yourself in the main text box below the title.

Screenshot

4. Answer each of the application questions. If you don't have an answer to a question or the question isn't applicable, answer it with "None"

Screenshot

5. Press the "Post Thread" button. You have now submitted your citizenship application!

Screenshot

It will likely take the Ministry of Domestic Affairs approximately 1 to 3 days to process your application. To prevent electoral fraud, applications are not processed during election periods, but will be checked once the election ends.

Once your application is approved, you're officially a citizen of The Communist Bloc!

What's next?

Nations left for 4D Donkeys to endorse:

Additionally, please unendorse the following nations that are over the limit:

This is an automated message.

Seeing as I'm still above the endorsing limit, I will ask you comrades once again if you can, to withdraw your endorsement from me until I have less than 160.

Well hello Comrades! I have been kinda busy lately lol. But now I'm back so what's up? Also hi to my friends Proletarska
And UFROE. Btw LUSSR stands for Less USSR cause I'm less dictatorship and more Democratic than USSR so yeah. At least I'm supposed to be.

Hmm, didnt expect that but ok

Daily wisdom: Republicans who say better dead than red will probably become very self-hating of themselves when they realize their party's official color is red.

Their body their choice! I don't know if the abortion theme has been already discussed here or on the discord, but in the social networks overall I am seeing a lot of people going backwards since the ducking american supreme court putting down that sentence! The comments I see are horrible! A vomiting-inducing bunch of people got the start to begin their useless rants against women and their freedom to choose over their body! It is disgusting!

Another weird take here is that theory about questions of race (nation) and gender are created by White liberals and OG Marxism from Russia/China never cared until that White Western liberal from Tumblr came to teach them. Nothing could be further from the truth!

It was actually Marxists who are pioneers in analysis of race (nation) and gender in deconstructing them. Friedrich Engels wrote about the origins of patriarchy and the defeat of biological sex women in his book "Origins of Private Property, Family and State". This was in 1884 when women cannot vote or kept in the kitchen or whatever. Huey Newton, a Maoist, the founder of the Communist Black Panther Party in 1970 wrote perhaps one of the first manifestos in LGBT rights and said "Homosexual men are the most oppressed people". This was a year just before the Stonewall Riots and when the APA (American Psychiatric Association) had not yet removed homosexuality as a "mental disorder". I could add more, but you get the point.

If anything it was the liberals who were forced to take a progressive turn due to the militant revolt of the proletariat on such issues (Stonewall, Black Panthers). The US Civil Rights Movement was launched in part because the USSR (socialist country) was so good in promoting the rights of Black people (called Ne**oes at that time).

How about Third World Communists? You would be surprised at how progressive Third World Communists at such issues. See for example, Cuba a country that had retained Marxist-Leninist institutions on its progressive positions on LGBT+ rights, gender and marriage, and how the Communist Party of the Philippines (Maoist) on its positions on gender, LGBT+ rights and its legalizations of gay and lesbian marriage. If you think that Filipinos or Cubans are “White Westerners” that is your guess.

All I can say is that China doesn't care because these are normal in this society. On the contrary, you in the West insist on taking those things to extremes. You in the West strongly support it because of political correctness (in the past, the West strongly opposed these because of religious issues) and because of your past cultural influence, you will think that if China does not promote it, it is opposed to it. On the contrary, China's attitude has acquiesced to this phenomenon.And the issue of ethnicity and gender is because the economic base determines the superstructure because the capitalist system is implemented. Do you really think the socialism in your textbooks is real?)

Look, there's a reason that abortion benefits so much the bourgoise: when less pregnancies are force-ended then we will end up with more workers who will have a potential to be exploited. An important ammount of those babies won't grow up with much love and care by their already-opressed parents thus most of them will become an oppressed product of capitalism and because they have no choice they will just keep feeding the rich.
I'm ''pro-choice'' btw, and I'm disgusted by this drama in social media too. If anyone hates abortion so much they just shouldn't do it on the individual level; no need to ban it for everyone, but some ''pro-life'' people aren't open-minded enough to think about that anyways...
Fortunately, the majority of my very conservative schoolmates are pro-abortion, so we're geting somewhere

Hello everyone and I hope your day is doing swell.

I was just wondering if anyone has tips on the Factbook and what to add for the necessary information. I already have a basic overview of my nation.

Thanks!

Best regards, SFCDR.

Hello there comrade, I have an idea, you can imagine and write a factbook about the political parties inside your country and what they do. I have already written that in my factbooks so you may want to take a look. Or just view random factbooks from other members of TCB to get some ideas.

On abortion, I'm a bit moderate, probably abortion in the first trimester and half of the second, and then restrictions, but not full bans.

Apparently its a victory for "White Life".

Yes, you read that correctly - Mary Miller, a republican congresswoman, got up on stage with Donald Trump at a MAGA rally on Saturday and declared it a "historic victory for White life in the supreme Court yesterday".

Obviously having had Trump on the throne, the KluKKers think that they don't have to hide behind white hoods anymore.

Every time I read about American politics recently, it seems closer and closer to "A Handmaids Tale".

Don't you think about the deeper reasons?

Disgusting! And so stupid! Abortions will keep happening even under bans! How could it be that fascist people are so stupid?!

Restrictions are not the good prevention to problems! A woman should be able to determine her own destiny without the state having to interfere!

Even in a perfect communist society where the individual gets fully supported by the collectivity in mutual way, having capitalistic oppression disappeared, there should be the freedom for the women to choose to become mothers or not! I don't want a sad and enraged female comrade who is depressed because someone else decided for her!

And if you are going to speak up for fathers' rights, well they don't carry a baby 9 months, and they can control their penis! They have the ability to choose not to put sperm inside a woman, in many ways!

If you man have unprotected sex with a woman, her possible choice to get abortion is an eventuality that you man should be forced to accept by constitution!

I think your national politics needs to stay away from religion. Christians are generally against abortion (we are here)

In my nation, religions got banned long time ago, and nowadays don't exist at all because the Grand Commune tries is best to be a heaven on earth for everyone, and children are taught not to believe in imaginary friends, but to support each other.

God is dead, society without oppression is born.
