Your Nation's View on Communism and Socialism

[Soviet Tankistan]

Anti-communist? No.
Pro-communist? Not really.
Communist persecution? No.
Non-communist persecution? Not often.
The state is officially socialist.

[Rising Palms]

Rising Palms has no official stance on communism or socialism, however its largest political party are capitalist and businesses have the legal right to fire striking workers.

[Walkerfort]

despises communism to it's core

you'll understand when you look at the nation's geography

[Tankmen]

Both are enforced with an iron fist no questions asked. We do not tolerate imperialists, capitalists or bourgeoisie here or any other bloodsucking creatures, such as pimps, landlords, moneylenders or any other element of the society-degrading poverty industries. Phony "socialism", democratic "socialism" or social democracy is currently being weeded out from among us. We Tankmen, a proud revolutionary socialist race, are not susceptible to it, for it is but a weak human ideal and thus never much of a threat until it manages to control state power.

All Tankmen stand with the revolutionaries around the world fighting for communism and socialism. Some of us volunteer to be sent abroad to fight ourselves. It is an honor.

[The Brytish Isles]

Is the state anti-communist? Whilst the UK does not tote around proclaiming itself anti-communist, it does act in opposition to communism when the ideology imposes on its interests. Domestic communism is heavily watched and monitored, with MI5 agents often infiltrating communist/socialist circles and spying upon all circles deemed a threat.
Is the state pro-communist? No, it is not. It rarely acts in a pro-communist manner.
Are communists persecuted? Not officially, but it isn’t unlikely for communists and socialists to be accused of treasonous thought and behaviour, though legal action is rare.
Are non-communists persecuted? Yes, but not on the basis of non-conformity to communism. These are usually socioreligious dissidents, such as Islamists.

[Fleeting Island]

Is the state anti-communist? No
Is the state pro-communist? Yes
Are communists persecuted? No
Are non-communists persecuted? There are no non-communists in Fleeting Island so the answer to whether they are or not is irrelevant.
Essentially: what is the states policy on socialism? We believe in a Lesbian Communist Monarchy under our queen, Kaoru Seta. She guides us all in our times of need and treats all of her Kittens with respect and love. Rather than have barriers to ourselves via money, we have chosen to work together.
P.S. Kaoru-sama's red piercing eyes were all I could think of as I wrote this

[Lanorth]

Considering we went to war with Tyronian Communism and Socialism (1940-1952) and fought it furiously with a huge victory for Lanorth and our ideology has not changed since then, we despise Communism and Socialism completely. We purged all Communists and Socialists in Lanorth in 1980 and we would love to wipe them off the face of the Earth.

[Conservative Christian American States]

Our nation is fiercely anti-communist and anti-socialist. Both ideologies are completely banned in our nation and we have and will wage war to liberate countries and territories from the grip of two of the most evil ideologies to ever be created.

[Luvria]

Luvria was formerly a communist nation. Under the policies of Chairman Fehdman Miratti and the Worker's Patriotic Party, which supported Stalin's "Socialism in One Country" as their model mixed with a nationalist fervor of "promoting the humanistic and spiritual values of the Luviri people", the country rapidly industrialized and increased in productivity. At great cost to the nations environment, and as some sources claim, great cost to the human rights of the country's population.

Nevertheless, although Communism has fallen in the country to be replaced by Capitalism and Social Democracy, a great number of Luvrian citizens look back on the days of communism with fondness and nostalgia.

[Oceanum Imperium]

We persecute Marxist socialists and anarchists and most of our people fear it and resist it. However due to the church having a strong influence in our government our government has some policies that are referred as Christian Socialism. But political beliefs that advocate for atheism are kept down. We also help nations rid themselves of socialism.

[Galaan]

Socialism is a threat to Galaani society, and every effort is taken to shield the people of Galaan from its malign influence. All mention of Socialism, Communism, Anarchism etc on the CivNet is thoroughly censored and visitors to Galaan are thoroughly screened for troublesome political ideologies. At the same time, we have a wide-reaching social safety net, including a universal basic income, which keeps our people insulated from any possible spontaneous manifestations of Socialist thought.

[Kuominwave]

Communism is viewed as the evil ideology it is, seeing how it devastated our nation in the past. Suspected Communists/socialists are sent to re-education camps, and radical activists are typically whisked away by the secret police and go 'missing'.

[Hiachijan]

Most agree that it simply fails in most circumstances.

[Off TheHook]

Is the state anti-communist? Nah
Is the state pro-communist? Yeah
Are communists persecuted? Not unless they believe the Queen should be equal with everyone else
]Are non-communists persecuted? Nah
Essentially: what is the states policy on socialism? Good to an extent. Queen Pearl gives the citizens everything they need to live and enjoy their lives but obviously she deserves more than everyone else and to be treated better.

[Hamstan]

We're democratic socialists/sydicalists. There is a communist party, but it's allied with a Stalinist militia group. There is also a centrist party that supports Rhine Capitalism, but they are 4th behind the Anarchists, the Progressives, and the ruling Burger Brother party.

[Great Eddy]

Is the state anti-communist?: Not at all
Is the state pro-communist?: Yes.
Are communists persecuted?: No
Are non-communists persecuted?: No, but Fascism and Nazism is outlawed.

[Nolo gap]

all brand name flavours of ideology, are just words, that no one practices anyway.
capitolism is the same thing. not that any of them would be possible in real life,
though people invent games to pretend that they are.

socialism is often used as a pejorative for any government in any form that attempts to earn its keep.
condemned only by those who imagine falsely that not allowing a government to do so, would somehow lighten the real burdens of its existence.

communism refers specifically to marx and engle's attempt to reinvent the wheel, while overlooking several semi-obvious details,
(though not of the nature nor with the result fanatical capitalists would have you believe)

in short we view no ideology as holy grail, neither do we blame the faults people blindly inflict upon themselves on them entirely.
(unless of course, they fanatically insist upon doing so, but even then, it is not so much the ideology as their fanatacism about it)

[Saciu]

Communism is seen as a stupid idea, and followers of the ideology are often subjected to ridicule, with Socialism being seen similarly but toned down. Freedom to promote these ideologies are supported by the free speech laws.

[Roma and Italia]

Boomark, 20th century:

In the 1950's, the conflicts between capitalist and communist was high, civil discourse was often violent and the future of the Empire was uncertain. A Socialist Consul constantly battled against his traditionalist counterpart, all while the Emperor of the time was an incompetent who delegated most of his duties to the elected officials. In 1956, tensions hit a boiling point and a riot escalation into rebellion and eventually civil war as the communist bloc tried to overthrow the more traditionalist government, as well as the throne. The Roman civil war of 1956 lasted from October 1st of 1956 to December 19th 1959.

Both sides of the Empire were being supported in a proxy war between the Soviets and Americans and Europe was in turmoil, worrying over it escalating further. Eventually however the war came to a close with a decisive battle near Athens where the remaining forces of the Communist rebels were corned and defeated in a battle that waged several days. After the end of the conflict the surviving rebels were executed as a statement, and the Emperor stepped down to allow his more competent and popular heir take the throne.

The conflict left a lasting mark on the Empire, greatly diminishing it's power in the world for years, crumbling a super power for the remainder of the 20th century and well into the early 21st century. For years any socialist or communist material or advocacy could get you arrested if not beaten by an angry mob, and traditionalist values became exceedingly popular for a while.

It is only until 2016 where official policy relaxed on some socialist material, but the scars still run deep and there is still a lingering distrust of socialist and communist.

[Ritterdorf]

Is the state anti-communist?
Yes. Communism exists as a threat to the adherence to the difference of classes and social hierarchy. When the weak revolts against the strong, a kingdom crumbles. Conversely, the weak shall respect the strong and the strong shall protect the weak and keep them in check.

Is the state pro-communist?
No.

Are communists persecuted?
They would either be hung on a wall or be expelled from our nation depending on the severity of their fanatical practice.

Are non-communists persecuted?
No, they would be praised for respecting the difference between commoners who never bothered to improve themselves and the nobles who climb to the top of the social hierarchy through sheer efforts, wisdom and merit.

[Nivesia]

• Is the state anti-communist?
  Well yes, but actually no. The Republic of Nivesia, constitutionally rejects any existence of communism. The people of Nivesia itself mostly view communism as unfavorable, and undesirable. Despite the strict view and rejection against communism, Nivesia has successfully attempted to reconcile both right wing and left wing ideals, by advocating a varying synthesis of centre-right and centrist economic platforms with some centre-left social policies, and incorporating most of Marhaenism* aspects.
  
• Is the state pro-communist?
  No. Nivesia does not lean to either capitalism or communism.
  
• Are communists persecuted?
  Yes. Communists are often discriminated by the people, and any existence of communist ideals are to be investigated. The last communist party ever existed in Nivesia was CPN (Communist Party of Nivesia) and was dissolved forcefully by the government in the late 1960.
  
  
• Are non-communists persecuted?
  Those believed to have ties to any illegal/radical organization, or is against the national ideology, are persecuted by the state.

*OOC: Marhaenism is not a type of communism but rather socialism, found by Indonesia's first president, Soekarno. Though, in some way, it has tendencies to be a centre-left system instead of a fully-left-wing system.

[Dryicor]

As for communism Dryicorans tend to be extremely against it. We are a true socialist nation, not a communist one masquerading as socialist.

As for socialism, Dryicor tends to be a socialist country, and so has a favourable view of it. Dryicor is run according to good socialist ideals that are good for our nation.

[Wink Wonk We Like Stonks]

Is the state anti-communist?
The government doesn't usually address communism, as there are few communists in the nation and we have bigger problems to worry about.
Is the state pro-communist?
Communism is seen as a failed experiment that may have had good intentions in the beginning, but in practice just leads to the government taking people's property and establishing a dictatorship. A government initially intended to liberate the common people just oppresses its citizens.
Are communists persecuted?
No. Why would we persecute people? What do you think this is, the Spanish Inquisition?
Are non-communists persecuted?
No. Not a communist country.

The country's categorized as "liberal democratic socialist" and it represents my irl views, so I guess pro-socialism, but mixed economies are cool too. We don't persecute people who aren't socialists or anything.

[Chuwandzia]

Czuwandzia holds to the mantra that "The only good communist is a dead communist." However, communists are rarely "made into good communists" just for being communists, but it does land them in some hot water.

[Apela]

Is the state anti-communist?
Anti-communist. Between 1982 and 1997, we were stuck under communist rule, and our people hated it. The new government illegalized the communist party and it only became legal again in 2018.
Is the state pro-communist?
No
Are communists persecuted?
No, between 1998 and 2003, they were though.
Are non-communists persecuted?
No.
