Are you doing your part citizen?


I would argue one can still very much be doing their part/contributing to society without necessarily serving in the military. The farmer tilling the earth and providing the food to fill the soldiers belly and the factory worker forging the weapons of war to arm said soldier are just important and honorable as the soldier who actually eats that food and carries that weapon. Hence my own personal transition away from support of stratocracy and it's replacement with a vaguely tehnocratic idea of what I call a Workers Republic in which if one contributes, aka works, you have a earned a true stake in the success of the nation and as such deserve a say in it's affairs(voting, public office). The overall system at large would be run on roughly syndicalist lines more or less. To put it in simpler terms "you work, you vote".

That just my own personal opinion on that matter though.

Sounds a bit like the medieval idea of the castes of society- the nobles are professional soldiers, the peasants are workers, and the clergy do penance for everyone else's sins. Of course it didn't work like that, but that was the idea.

NS was very different 10 years ago. I was pretty surprised to see how many right wing people there are after returning, because it used to be disproportionately more left wing back then, if memory serves.

I remember the days when the forums were just arguments between democratic socialists and real socialists over how much force to use in the revolution, and then an abortion thread where Christian Democrats and I took on the rest of NSG.
Good times.

Social and Fiscal Conservatism is the way to go. Let the free market be the free market without much government regulation. Let the people be in control with limits, with the Constitution being the supreme power of the land, dictating the rights that all people have, and maybe add a little Christianity and you have a perfect nation.

I identify as liberal, but I should say that political ideology needs to be contextualized. While there are descriptions and definitions that are applicable in the general sense and can be applied globally, there is also a need to specify where and why we identify with what we identify.

So in my case, I actually would say that if I were in the Western world, I would probably be labelled as a right leaning centrist (some might even say I'm a closet conservative), but in the country where I live in where a small level of religious fundamentalism is enshrined in the constitution, I'm considered (and identify as) a liberal. A bleeding heart liberal.

To one in a spectrum, the other is, quite simply put, the "OTHER".

Oh god no. The free market fairy won’t fix shit.

What limits? What rights?

The demilitarised zone. Occasionally mentions of politics get through if shrouded in at least three layers of foggy passive-aggressiveness, but it's fairly rare for them to get past the radar unchallenged.

How far? Past the specific case and towards the wholesale overthrow of the presumption of innocence and kneejerk populist/violent overthrow of the existing constitutional arrangements? You need to be able to either overthrow the entire system violently or to enjoy enough support to radically transform the system using the accepted channels.

If you don't have the numbers then you're just damaging the credibility of the mainstream by making the left look as wacky and morally unacceptable as the Trumpists.
