People join and leave TCB every day--I'm not "kicking back" at anyone. Anyone who has decided to leave the region will be deroled serverside appropriately and that's the end of that.
It's consistently very funny how the same small faux-leftist regions which spam and harass us also pin our dispatches, copy things I've said, etc. The same region once directly recycled a poll I posted, lmfao.

I can access the game web page without crossing the firewall, which is fine.
Well, I mean… that antifascist dispatch is probably the most pinned dispatch in the game lol so you can’t exactly blame them. It was made by a member of an NSLeft region but I don’t know if NSLeft actually even existed at the time the dispatch was made. Also, the fact that they don’t like/disagree with you doesn’t necessarily make them faux-leftist.
South Africa, actually, although in an alternate universe. The RRP has no resemblances to the IRL country South Africa whatsoever aside from roughly the borders and geographical location.
i don't have a problem with the general antifash dispatch being pinned, but what brezzia said reminded me of the times they have directly copy-and-pasted something tcb-specific to use, which i did think was funny and strange.
their disliking/disagreeing with me is not why i call them faux-leftist. i call them faux-leftist because their region is incredibly LARP-y, and it's populated largely by either bigots or people who have harassed/spammed nsleft regions. the members who aren't bigoted themselves or haven't harassed/spammed nsleft are, however, fine with closely socializing with people who are and have. they literally have an embassy with kaiserreich. i'm not really sure why you'd accuse me of calling others faux-leftist "because they disagree with me" when the people i'm calling faux-leftist...literally have an embassy with kaiserreich? even if you don't know the rest of the details of the situation, it should be fairly common sense that the mod whose job is to enforce our anti-sectarianism rules is calling another region faux-leftist because of their KR embassy and not because i am randomly being sectarian myself. wild conclusion to jump to on your behalf, tbh.
I must ask how strict of left alignment is expected of Communist Bloc–members: without divulging beyond the scope of this reply, it wouldn’t be inaccurate to label my methods and ideology “centrist” (albeit not moderate by any stretch).
although the large, large majority of the bloc definitely does not agree with centrism, centrists are allowed provided that they are not actively anti-leftist and don't ever break any of our anti-bigotry rules
I understand, and thank you for the reply. I certainly wouldn’t be here were I not of the view that these such tenets are wholly-compatible (and further, properly associated) with this Bloc.
hellooooo RMB! i apologize for being a stranger here lately, things have been a bit rocky over the past couple weeks of my term, but i'm getting back into the swing of things! these will be posted on fridays in the future, but i was, uh, very sick w/ a cold that day so i forgot. my apologies.
anyway, so: here's the first OFFICIAL RMB discussion question, brought to you by none other than your minister of culture!
Other than the big three stats (economy, civil rights, and political freedom), is there a NS stat(s) that's important to you/your nation? why do you like it? why is it important to you?
to give my own response, the stats i've been focusing on are eco-friendliness, environmental beauty, and income equality! i've always imagined my nation as one deeply concerned with it's environment, so that's what's up with the focus on that. income equality is just because, well, kabaragoya is a socialist country and actively seeks a state of communism.
stares miserably into the distance. when i first started my nation, i did not want trout fishing to be a very high industry. i wanted IT to be my highest industry. i was fighting for my life to have IT above all else. and Yet. and fuсking yet. literally everything i did would magically increase my trout fishing instead, even if our beloved stat checker website said it would not. so eventually i was like "you know what screw it i'm just going to roll with that and make trout fishing my nation's best issue-affected stat."
...and then somehow every issue option i picked decreased my trout fishing instead of increasing it. like, even if the stat website says it'll give me roughly +115 on average, i end up with -0.2. it's almost comically sad. so now i'm fighting for my life to Increase Trout Fishing out of absolute spite. i feel like sisyphus with his rock out here
Oh, Eco-friendliness, Environmental Beauty and Health—beyond a shadow of a doubt. I’d elaborate more, but being 1:22 a.m. here, I’m (perhaps understandably) simply too tired to bother. 😴
Besides the main 3, I’m actually not sure. If we were to pick between the main 3, i’d say civil rights. But outside of them, maybe income equality? And yeah, its 1:29 here, so not sure if i wanna spend 15 minutes i could be sleeping typing out why. Sorry lol
lmaoo y'all who are typing responses at 1 am should go to bed, there's no pressure or obligation to respond to discussion questions, it's just supposed to be a fun thing for anyone who does want to participate
^ yeah this absolutely. the discussion question'll be here in the morning, if you feel like typing a response up to begin with. it's totally opt-in, so get your sleep if you need it!
For me, it has always been income equality. It is the statistic I use to measure my nation by, above all else, including the three in the front page. It use to be civil rights, in an attempt to become a Left-Wing Utopia, but when I allowed abortion, that decreased my civil rights due to religious doctors being forced to practice it against their beliefs. Also, I allowed smoking in an attempt to stop it & I hate the idea of smoking so in the end I just scrapped civil rights. In real life I am not at all big on civil rights so it didn't hurt me at all. Ironically, it actually made me free.
