Given that the Prime Minister now intends to re-appoint HumanSanity to cabinet only a month after they fell on their sword for attempting to extort The North Pacific, can TSP's government comment on whether they actually meant any part of their apology or whether it was all just to save face?

I know my word means jack all here, but as the person affected, HS shouldn't be within a mile of any Cabinet where he can participate in any FA decision if you sincerely meant sorry.

Frankly, shameful that the once-again feckless TSP leadership failed to realize that.

I mean, they were the last to apologise. If any of the perpetrators cared, they'd have stopped well before LWU made it public -- but at least TSP's making that clearer than the rest.

If you really think it’s reasonable or appropriate to demand TSP blacklists one of its most active and dedicated members, over some ridiculous blip that wouldn’t even belong in the footnotes of a history book, then I don’t know why TSP should care about how you perceive HS contributing to TSP’s government and helping keep the community active.

Apparently TSP values are
1. Defender - but only when convenient, then our morals are what ever they need to be.
2. Our treaties mean nothing
3. Obey and Survive
Just a Shameless Nobody.

I mean, I don't know, threatening a treaty ally, doubling down on it, and then relying on the remaining government (when your position was untenable and I have a sneaking suspicion you were pushed rather than willingly gone) to bail water out of the lifeboat is certainly worthy of some sort of long-term timeout, I have to think.

TNP is not worth damaging our long-term community activity by forever punishing HS because they got their feelings hurt over something. HS is worth 100 times more than the insubstantial (to borderline non-existent) benefits the TNP-TSP “alliance” has created over the last several years.

Oh, Glen. While perhaps it should have been obvious where you stood when you'd talk to my Deputy but never the man in charge (Pepperidge Farms Remembers), I didn't think you'd outright say it.

And to be clear here, I don't expect a permanent timeout. Hell, I don't even expect a year. I do expect more than a cursory month. And I think most of the rest of the world would as well.

How did the Government of TSP expect this to play? Lol

"Hey valued ally, our MoFA who tried to extort you as a purity test has resigned. Hope this begins to patch up relations"

*Not even a month passes*

"Hey, lol, so we just reappointed our previously disgraced MoFA (who tried to extort an ally) into a marginally different position. Without even considering how our ally would perceive this."

I'm one to at least try to not attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by brutal incompetence, but unless the government is run through a poorly prompted ChatGPT bot, I fail to understand how this decision was cleared.

You don’t know me very well, I guess! I would be very happy to see the “alliance” thrown in the trash where it’s belonged for years, ever since TNP couldn’t even abide by their obligations to defend against a coup. Unfortunately I wasn’t a tyrant during my tenure as PM, otherwise none of this would be happening at all.

Alas, I’m a private citizen and have been for a long while now. My previous decision to prevent the Assembly from having the power to dissolve treaties itself annoyingly prevents me from having any agency in TSP-TNP affairs, beyond exercising my freedom of speech. :(
