You've little sympathy for a founderless region, be it Holocaust Memorial or Nazi. The bottom line is, we're asking for it because were founderless. We wouldn't be here if we had a founder.

It's not that your founderless, it's that your Nazi.

In general, I'm on the side of founderless regions.

That's nice. It may or may not interest you to know that the former founder of Hippiedom has applied his WA to NE's WAD. I consider him a friend, and an enlightened friend at that. Unlike you, he can see beyond the region name.

Why is everyone saying "Nazi"? It is called being a National Socialist. The NSDAP never called themselves "Nazis". Nazi was a insult created by the Communists in responce to The NSDAP calling them Sozis

That's exactly why the passage of Liberate Nazi Europe is such a great thing for the good guys (i.e. Imperialists and Independants). It weakens the Liberation Resolution!

I support the repeal. I believe that this has been upgraded from a simple territorial invasion to becoming something that, quite honestly, is an in-game ideological war. Sure, being Nazi IS bad, but then we should ban Neo-Nazi speech (which we don't in the US, they can say whatever the hell they want as long as they don't go and kill any Jews).

Since when a game is meant to be taken this seriously?! I mean, I understand the concerns, but this whole Liberation set an entire new precedent: that any nation or region can use the Security Council for their own agendas. As a Foreign Policy historian I find that this can be a dangerous precedent for Nation States, one that must not be let given any course of action but rather nipped in the bud.

Mostly because if we are going to liberate regions we don't agree with then we are placing the burden of having those regions to comply to the majority of free, liberal regions which in this game that is simply not how it should work. A Nazi Europe is a nice thing to have in a game because it shows, through simulated basis, how a perfectly nazi system would work and how well would the region run if left to it's National Socialist agenda or, it would be a cool name if the members are not on the Nazi wagon. Plus, if we think about it, we should also outlaw Wolfenstein original digital copies from the free-distribution online and doom since they carry Nazi motifs.

It also is an impediment to the freedom of information. I mean, most of us wouldn't like for the net to be censored, right? So why would we censor a minority of people who have decided, for one reason or another, to be under a name like Nazi Europe? If you don't like it you just don't have to pay attention to the region. There are hundreds of regions I may not agree with if I explore the regions, but then again that doesn't mean I will use the power of the Security Council for my own personal benefit on a vendetta or a personal crusade against the Nation State's regions I don't agree with. And I believe this also should be the policy by which all of us as WA members should go by.

And by the way, I am no nazi or authoritarian loon, but I do think this has to be repealed.

Maybe :blush: but I needed to express my concern on the whole thing :D I mean, it's a game :p thus, once you begin breaching from the game aspect into the personal aspect (like many people against Nazi Europe are doing) of it all it begins to devolve into something most of us don't want to see it devolving :p

Lol ^ :lol2: well, that's a good option but seriously, why would anyone use the Security Council just to change a NAME?! I mean I'm new here but seriously? One thing is the actions of the members, another different thing is being asinine about the name itself (Nazi Europe is hardly anything offensive. And I know, the holocaust was a horrible thing, but if we're going to make cahoots about a name then we should ask the KKK to change its name to, idk, the MMM and yet I doubt I would see people complain and placing a condemnation about a country called "The Empire of the Klu Klux Klan" :p ).

A nation called "the Empire of the Klu Klux Klan" would probably get instantly mod-deleted instead of condemned :p

The reason they should refound the region is so that they have an active founder, not to change the name. They could even call it "NEW NAZI EUROPE" and it couldnt be condemned for the name.

No, for a couple reasons. First because the Internationale is just that, a conglomeration of different beliefs, and doesn't support a unified and historically genocidal political movement. Second is because being a communist/socialist/anarchist isn't the same as being a racist and antisemitic piece of s**t.
