Guidelines for the Acceptance of Embassies

by The Revolutionary Communes of World Anarchic Union

Guidance for the Acceptance of Proposals for Embassies

"Target region" means a region that has proposed embassies with the LSC, or is being evaluated by the LSC.

1. Size:
a. Target regions should have at least about 15 non-puppet nations
b. Target regions should have at least 5 WA nations

2. Tags:
a. Target regions should have at least one tag among: Anarchist, Communist, Socialist, Democratic, Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Fascist, Feminist, Eco-Friendly or LGBT, or, similar tags.
b. Target regions must not have the Anti-Communist, Capitalist, Imperialist, Monarchist, Fascist, Patriarchal, Theocratic, Totalitarian or Puppet Storage tag.
c. Exceptions can be made on a case by case basis if the target region has some compatibility in values, and demonstrates commitment to respectful dialogue.

3. Embassies:
a. Target regions must not maintain embassies with other regions that have the Anti-Communist, Fascist, Patriarchal, Theocratic or Imperialist tag.
b. Target regions should maintain embassies with other regions that share our values, unless they have not yet established many embassies.
c. Target regions should not be currently pursuing massive amounts of embassies at once without regard to values.

4. Behaviour:
a. LSC values, as stated in the LSC charter, must be upheld by the leadership of target regions, and in the target regions' RMBs.

Read dispatch

Ah yes, thank you! I put the link in the description of the poll and forgot to paste it in here as well.

I have a question:
-If the vote passes, then will this (or another) dispatch be pinned on the homepage?

Wait how do I make an alliance with someone?

It is kinda unfortunate that there isn't some kind of feature to do that though.

🤔 you could join the WA and like, ally with other voters to get resolutions passed; you can endorse nations you like and withhold your endorsements from ones you don’t to influence WA elections; or you could join the region’s international committee and decide which regions we ally with thru embassies. Regions are essentially alliances too. So right now you’re our ally. You could invite others to join the region or one day you could start your own region and invite only nations you like, etc.
If you just want to keep a list of nations you like/appreciate, you can always add them to your dossier.

Since the 3 days of Election Secretary Nominations have passed, and one nation has been nominated, that makes Stus-plasia the Election Secretary. Stus-Plasia, I think since the Charter does not specify what to do when there is one Election Secretary, the Confederal Council Elections are up to you for when they begin. Congratulations on the role.

As the Confederal Council is bringing the term to an end, if you are on the Confederal Council, please don't forget to publish an end report when you are ready. It is helpful with documenting how the region changes.

I don’t think there is really a precedent for what dispatch to pin, if the already drafted one can be pinned or we must write a new one, but I believe it’d be helpful for there to be a dispatch of the guidelines, if the region decides to adopt them.

Or we can end up making a super-dispatch with links

Awesome! :>
I am currently busy and therefore I will defer the election dates by 1 day. The CC nominations will start on Thursday, May 26th, and the CC elections will start on Thursday, June 2nd. If anyone has any objections to this, please let me know. Good luck to all those running! ^-^

Nope. A day late has never hurt anyone has it? IRL things are much more important than elections in these electronic and arguably dumb game.

Sorry if I interrupted your goings on! This is a great region and I love the people here and how convivial you are! I'm impressed every day by your friendship and good nature on Discord. I just love y'all to bits. Have a great day folks!

May LSC endure and thrive always!

Welcome to the region Gothikka and others who have chosen to merge into the LSC from the Black Flag Pact. It is wonderful to have you with us, please make yourselves at home! :)

Love and solidarity to you, my friend.

The Confederal Council nominations and campaign period are officially open! Those that would like to run may nominate themselves on the RMB, or nations can nominate another nation on the RMB. Good luck to all candidates! :3

Report:
This quarter we saw some members helping out with one or two NSleft military maneuvers.
We had an incident involving a troll spamming slurs or something in the RMB while I was away from the game, but iirc Patagonian Workers Front rose to the occasion to shut that down.
The RMB has gotten livelier with many more members and discussion topics, art, and so on.
The Discord server continues to be our biggest discussion area. Members have been making great use of our “mutual care” channel to lift each other up compassionately.

Voting closes in 4 hours:

Good evening brothers and sisters

hi im here now

-Voting Against GA proposal, For SC proposal.

However, I hope the SC nominee of the original resolution (Topid) can be replaced, as the author of the repeal wishes.

I appreciate the welcome, I couldnt have chosen a better region for us. I feel generally us Libcoms Socs etc dont have too much to gain by being entirely separate anyhow. But it is fun to have your own unique identity
