Democratic Socialist Party of San Francisco - Political Party

(Image)

Account Name: Pasong Tirad

Location: United States of San Francisco
Size: Approx. 500,000 full-time and part-time members and affiliates

Objective: The main goal of the Democratic Socialist Party of San Francisco (DSP-SF) is to help slowly transition the economy of San Francisco from its current social democratic-Scandinavian model economy to a more egalitarian democratic socialist-welfare and market socialist economy wherein the workers have full control over the means of production. They're different from the Communist Party (CP-SF), which wants to demolish the Scandinavian model economy, and from the Green-Social Democratic Party (GSDP-SF) which wants to maintain the economic status quo.
Structure: The DSP-SF has a very democratic way of running things, with every decision the party makes run through a committee that decides on consensus. Every member (those who register as members of the DSP-SF) of the party gets a vote on who gets to be the party's presidential nominee. The party is split into several factions: 1) the Progressives, the actual democratic socialists, 2) the Radicals, those within the DSP-SF who consider themselves to be anarchists or syndicalists, and 3) the Liberals, who consider themselves to be more of the social democratic variety.
Background: The DSP-SF was born out of the San Francisco chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). They officially separated from the larger DSA network when the first Republic of San Francisco declared independence, and the DSP-SF began to mobilize and agitate for a more socialist government and not just a West Coast rehashing of the old United States of America. They were able to garner a large amount of popular support for this movement, further aided by London Breed, the first president of the Republic of San Francisco, and Katy Tang, a senator and grassroots organizer for the DSP-SF network, who helped it reach out to the less urban counties (states) within the Bay Area. With the help of marginalized communities and the progressive, economically left of center elites of San Francisco, the DSP-SF was able to garner enough support to properly organize the Bay Militias, the forerunner of the San Francisco Armed Forces, that would help keep out ICE and what little Federal intervention attempted to break through into the Bay Area. The DSP-SF turned into a proper political power almost overnight, and the democratic socialist fist and rose symbol was everywhere. People put stickers of the fist and rose on their front doors as a sign of solidarity, people hung the plain red flag above their rooftops, socialist pamphlets were being distributed in person and offline. When the proper constitution of the United States of San Francisco was created, the DSP-SF was the leading party that helped shape the current form of government that the Bay Area has today, catapulting London Breed into the first official presidency of the new USSF.

Miscellaneous The Democratic Socialist Party of San Francisco was one of three leading parties that gave San Francisco its independence in 2023.

Done! Also added some extra fluff for the USSF's mode of government. Might also write up the faction apps for the two other leading political parties in my nation to help the depth.

Character app to follow. Since communities organized by the Regulators would at least border, and most likely lie within, the territory of urban leaders in the Northeast, Great Lakes, and Piedmont-Atlantic regions, I see plenty of opportunity to interact with other players - and to fill in some empty space on the map as well.

THE REGULATORS - Rural Self-Defense and Reform Movement

Account Name: Norv

Location: The Regulators are highly decentralized and locally organized, and therefore do not control territory or possess a central headquarters. Instead, small towns tend to organize themselves and join the movement wherever public order is weakest. In an America dominated by urban overlords, this means that the Regulators are most widespread in that vast swath of rural country encompassing the western Carolinas; West Virginia, most of Tennesee, and Kentucky; southern Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois; and most of Arkansas and Missouri. The movement is now expanding rapidly out of this initial heartland into the Great Plains and beyond. Many communities affiliated with the Regulators exist in territory that is de jure controlled by local municipalities and their power-brokers, but in outlying areas where America's new overlords have failed to provide security or basic public goods. In such neglected areas, regardless of who claims authority over them, small towns draw on the Regulators' pooled expertise and resources to organize their own defenses, healthcare, infrastructure, and education.

Size: More than a thousand small towns have drawn on the Regulators' expertise and resources to organize a local militia and provide basic public services to their people. As a result, about three million people have, in one way or another, been directly helped by the movement. More than 700,000 men and women bear arms in hundreds of local militias trained to Regulator standards, though none can be required to defend any land further afield than their own hometown. True "professionals" - the itinerant doctors, teachers, soldiers, and activists who wander from town to town, spreading the Regulators' precepts and helping to organize local clinics, schools, elections, and militias - are far fewer in number: perhaps only a thousand or so all told. Even the movement's top leaders are constantly on the road, with no fixed headquarters or formal chain of command, and so the Regulators' organization depends more on online spreadsheets and social-media apps than on bureaucracies. More than an institution, the Regulators are an idea, an idea that spreads as more and more people acquire the expertise necessary to contribute to it. The size of an idea is a difficult thing indeed to assess.

Objective: Regulator organizers tend to summarize the movement's ethos in a traditional aphorism: "If you want something done right, do it yourself." Rural communities, the Regulators argue, are especially vulnerable to the current political upheaval. They can no longer rely on state or federal funds for police, hospitals, or schools. They cannot rely on America's new urban overlords either: in part because their power often does not reach rural areas, and in part because country folk are too few and too fractious to be an attractive base of support for them. As a consequence, small towns are often left without basic public services or even electricity. Worse, they find themselves undefended in the face of banditry, facing incursions by the private armies of urban strongmen, and exposed to power-grabs by petty local tyrants. The Regulator movement seeks to tame - "regulate" - this chaos through resolute self-reliance: it calls on small towns to build autonomous local democracies from the ground up, to arm and train local militias, to build and repair local infrastructure, and to staff and fund local schools and medical clinics. These communal projects require a communal pooling of expertise and resources: the Regulator ethos rejects "rugged individualism" to preach communal discipline and mutual support. The Regulators also regard themselves as upholding key American civic values: no community that does not hold free and fair elections can plausibly claim to be associated with the Regulators, and the professional culture of Regulator organizers emphasizes the need for everyone to contribute equally and to be treated equally by their communities, regardless of race or religion or country of origin. This is understood to be an issue both of justice, and of pragmatic necessity. Finally, the Regulator movement is grassroots and volunteer-based. Anyone with a useful skill set - soldiers, teachers, doctors, engineers - can make contact with the Regulators online or by contacting an itinerant organizer, and turn their skills toward the good of their local community. Doing that is all that it takes to call yourself a Regulator, which is why the Pine Tree Flag flies from thousands of homes whose owners couldn't even name any of the movement's famous captains.

Structure: The Regulators are more an idea than an institution, and are very loosely organized. The vast majority of Regulators act essentially on their own initiative to contribute to their communities. In this sense, the Regulators are in essence a way to crowd-source government: online forums and social media apps where people can share expertise and coordinate collective action are the Regulator movement, empowering communities to build their own governments, schools, militias, and medical systems from the ground up. Often, when two nearby towns are both influenced by the Regulators, a doctor or teacher or military veteran will travel from one to the other to lend a hand in person. Sometimes, such an expert will travel further afield, occasionally hundreds of miles from home, to towns where the Regulator movement has not been embraced. When most people think of Regulators, they imagine these individuals: itinerant volunteer organizers who not only support communities where the movement is strong, but who also bring the movement to new towns where chaos and poverty and petty tyranny reign, and who provide the inspiration and the training for local people to organize and care for each other and fight back. There is no formal training or accreditation process for these so-called professionals, but there is an informal apprenticeship system whereby newer organizers shadow more experienced ones. The result is that many Regulator organizers know each other personally, and they often rendezvous in groups of a few dozen every few months to plan and coordinate their work. Regulator organizers pool some of the donations they receive from their communities to help fund each other's work, and by consensus they choose captains whose wisdom and experience qualifies them to mediate disputes between organizers or communities within the movement. These captains are the only leaders the Regulator movement has, and their authority is wholly informal: they have no military or economic force to back up their speeches, and so they rely heavily on personal repute and raw charisma. But when true crisis comes, the captains will coordinate behind the scenes, and then speak with one voice to propose a plan of action. The unified recommendation of a dozen or so legendary Regulators tends to exercise a decisive influence on the thinking of the millions of Americans whom the movement has helped.

Background: The original taproot of the Regulator movement is the American labor movement. As the bankrupt federal government pared back spending on Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, SNAP, and other key programs, millions of rural Americans found themselves destitute. It quickly became apparent that only the long-dwindling union locals, which still retained a foothold in small towns across the nation, possessed the independent organization and communal solidarity necessary to organize makeshift clinics, food banks, and schools when the government money stopped coming and the public schools and hospitals had to close their doors. The online forums and social-media apps that the AFL-CIO established in the early 2020s to coordinate such programs became the infrastructural base of the Regulator movement.

As the crisis deepened and public order began to break down, small towns faced a more dramatic problem: the collapse of federal and state law enforcement brought the American militia movement out into the open as never before. Heavily-armed bands of survivalists occasionally stepped in to ensure public safety; more often, they terrorized small towns or established themselves as local warlords. Local police sometimes fell into the same toxic patterns. By 2025, the chaos had catalyzed the emergence of the first great Regulator captains: an Ohio law professor who reclaimed the idea of the "well-regulated militia" to defend his campus from neo-Nazi survivalists; a West Virginia union leader who inspired his town's police force to depose their corrupt chief and help write a new local constitution; an Arkansas city councilwoman who led her community through a brutal winter by farming every available scrap of land after their food supply was stolen by bandits; a Tennessee engineer who successfully fortified her hometown against an assault by National Guard deserters, and then helped four other towns in her county to do the same.

As urban kingpins around the country began to formalize their new authority, rural men and women became legends by standing up to the chaos that had engulfed their lives. Many embraced their new role as heroes, and began to travel from town to town, sharing their expertise and building community ties in their wake. Others, teachers and doctors and soldiers and engineers and lawyers, were inspired to follow suit: first dozens, then hundreds. In the Western Carolinas, the new movement became known as the Regulators, after a group of frontiersmen in the 1760s who had resisted the British administration and emphasized rural self-reliance - self-regulation. The name spread swiftly. As more and more organizers moved from town to town, meeting each other and keeping in touch online, they compared notes and refined their approach to their work. Best practices emerged to influence how Regulators organized local government, militia training, elementary education, grassroots electrical generation, and more. With those practices, less tangibly, emerged a more consistent and sophisticated Regulator ideology: self-reliance, communal solidarity, tolerance, discipline, pragmatism, rules-based and accountable government. Neither right-wing nor left-wing, it offered a new political paradigm in which the school-board race, not the presidential race, was the model for communal living.

Today, more than a decade later, the Regulators continue to spread down the crumbling back roads of an America far from the bright lights and fabulous wealth of the new megalopolises and their overlords. Captains, informally chosen and equally informal in their authority, have emerged to coordinate the movement's expansion, dispatching organizers in teams of two or three to inspire new towns to defend themselves, feed themselves, teach themselves, heal themselves. In the movement's heartland of Appalachia and the Lower Midwest, a thriving association of small self-governing communities has emerged from the ashes of economic and political collapse. But as the Regulators venture ever further afield, and the movement wins support ever closer to the centers of metropolitan power, it seems likely to be only a matter of time before this movement faces a new and terrible test.

Miscellaneous: This pattern of expansion - small teams of highly-skilled organizers traveling from town to town to set up new, locally self-sustaining institutions - is recognized by social scientists as one of the oldest patterns in the development of human society. In the case of the Regulators, it's clearly inspired by the American labor movement, where organizers traditionally set up local affiliates one factory at a time. But you could just as easily see the same pattern in the history of the early Church, where itinerant apostles set up house churches one town at a time. It's that ancient grassroots system that the Regulators are intended to reflect.

NATHAN HARPER - The Regulators

Account Name: Norv

Occupation: Regulator organizer and captain, with experience in political, paramilitary, and educational organizing. Former Berea College history professor and National Guard officer.

Family: Father, Roger, died in workplace accident 2/7/2004. Mother, Katie, age 63, is estranged; lives in Louisville. Grandparents Arthur and Mary, ages 85 and 83, are key figures in Nathan's life and live in Somerset, KY. Older sister Lillian, 43, lives in Elixabethtown, KY. Wife Eleanor died of tuberculosis, 12/20/2023. Daughter Naomi, age 15, lives most of the year with grandparents in Somerset.

Motivation and Ideology: Nathan Harper is one of the original great Regulator captains, a minor living legend throughout the Ohio River valley and lower Midwest. Like many such figures, he himself is acutely aware of how little true ideology motivated the movement's emergence: he organized his community because it was under immanent threat of starvation and violent anarchy, and events simply snowballed from there. As a historian, though, Nathan is deeply conscious of the importance of stories, and he has had a significant and deliberate role in shaping the stories that the Regulators tell about themselves, and in defining their identity. The critical importance of local democracy, the romantic image of Regulator organizers as wandering knights-errant, and the deliberate erasure of the distinction between civilians and soldiers in Regulator militia theory are all derived from Nathan's influence on the movement, and his writings and speeches are widely circulated online and in print. Nathan himself, while committed to his views, is not an ideologue. He is an instinctive pragmatist, and draws his deepest inspiration and strength from the million acts of communal love and sacrifice that Regulator families willingly make for each other. And he recognizes, to his shame, that his commitment to the itinerant life of an organizer - and his famous fearlessness - derive at least in part from trauma: a child of a broken family whose wife died in the chaos of the early '20s, he has spent his life on the road because he is terrified that any time he puts down roots, his world will get shattered yet again. In that light, adventure and danger seem less a peril, and more the only guarantee of safety: you cannot lose what you never had.

Background:

• Born 9/19/1995 in Louisville, KY. Parents were working-class but comfortable: father a union steelworker, mother a restaurant manager. Key early lessons: hard work, fair play, importance of social networks for a secure and fulfilling life - union locals, extended family, etc. Learned to think of self-reliance in communal terms. Inherited emotional, undogmatic Evangelical faith, rooted more in the daily practice kindness and generosity than in doctrine or even Scripture.
• Father killed in accident on the job, 2/2/2004. Mother suffered gradual emotional breakdown and substance abuse issues, eventually causing father's parents, Arthur and Mary Harper, to remove Nathan from her household and raise him in Somerset, KY. Recovered gradually but powerfully from trauma of his family's collapse. Worked part-time on grandparents' farm and at hardware store, and developed proficiency as a hunter. Became straight-A student-athlete at Somerset High School, playing football and excelling in history and social sciences. Relatively popular with peers: regarded as serious, mature, sensible, loyal, dependable.
• Admitted to Vanderbilt University on merit scholarship, 8/15/2013. Majored in history, played on debate team and in intramural sports league. Blossomed academically and discovered deep love of scholarship: not the arguments, but the storytelling, the feeling of coming to understand a topic inside and out like an old friend. Became active in campus Democratic Party in 2016 election: union upbringing and personal religious views left him deeply hostile to Donald Trump's candidacy. Graduated summa cum laude, 5/3/2017.
• Admitted to Georgetown Law Center, 8/12/2017: attended law school with an eye toward legal scholarship or political work, rather than toward practice. Maintained high GPA and was noted for his attention to historical detail and context. Excelled especially in constitutional law. Held summer jobs with Southern Poverty Law Center and FBI. Met and married fellow student Eleanor Custis, 7/15/2019. Graduated with high honors, 5/10/2020.
• Unable to find work at a law school amid economic crash of early 2020s, accepted an associate professorship of American history at Berea College, a Kentucky liberal arts establishment famous for charging no tuition of its students, 8/4/2020. Soon became popular with students for his infectious enthusiasm and delight in teaching. In part due to concern over political instability, completed training and commissioning as Kentucky National Guard infantry officer, 12/11/2020. Instructors recall an unusually intelligent and intense officer candidate who developed a deep belief in the National Guard's mission as an army of and for ordinary citizens. Was present for the birth of his daughter, Naomi, 1/12/2021.
• Repeatedly activated for National Guard service in responding to public unrest in Louisville and Lexington. Became active in Berea town politics, pressing for better contingency plans for large-scale emergency. When Kentucky governor attempted to use National Guard troops to dissolve the state legislature, 5/12/2021, Nathan refused activation orders. Elected to emergency town administrative council, 6/27/2021, when state government ceased to function and funding for health care, schools, and public order stopped arriving in Berea.
• On town council, became leading advocate of rationing food and medicine and investing in ambitious local electrical generation and water purification projects. Also advocated, with mixed success, for a generous policy in admitting refugees from violent unrest elsewhere in Kentucky. Clashed repeatedly with Berea police chief over the need to expand responsibility for security through a citizen militia; ultimately culminated in a split within the police department and a shootout, 2/10/2022, after which police chief left town and became bandit leader. Almost starved and contracted rheumatism in winter of 2021-2022, a condition that still troubles him.
• Elected Berea militia captain, 3/12/2022. Began travelling to nearby towns to help them organize their own militias; solicited help from local doctors, farmers, engineers, etc. in repairing local infrastructure. Became early and active user of AFL-CIO online community-organization infrastructure, adapted to coordinate regional action and communicate with local leaders across the Appalachian South and Lower Midwest. Credited with farming and housing initiatives that sharply improved conditions in winter of 2022-2023 relative to the previous year.
• Came into conflict with Traditionalist Workers' Party, a white-nationalist organization in southern Indiana and Kentucky that had armed itself and begun terrorizing communities after Kentucky government shutdown. Led local militias in violent skirmishes with TWP throughout spring and summer of 2023. Successfully worked to undercut white-nationalist messaging by organizing open, publicly led constitutional conventions for Berea and other towns, allowing local people to articulate their own political beliefs and apply them. Suffered major loss when TWP raid stole most of Berea's medical supplies and pharmaceuticals, 10/31/2023, but led retaliatory expedition that crushed TWP forces and killed or captured most of the party's leadership at Battle of Vertrees, 11/22/2023. Episode made Nathan Harper a living legend as one of the original Regulator captains.
• Wife Lauren died of tuberculosis due largely to lack of medical supplies, 12/20/2023. Devastated, sent daughter to live with his grandparents and set out to organize more and more towns in rapidly growing Regulator movement. Spend almost all of the following twelve years on the road in Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and West Virginia. Authored several well-known works: Twelve Tales of Local Democracy, a narrative-based primer for organizers on how to set up democratic town governments; The People's Way of War, a short treatise on the citizen militia's social, political, and strategic implications; and No One Left Behind, a widely read online essay that attacks both racial and religious discrimination within rural communities, and the metropolitan overlords who increasingly claim authority over those communities. Added to his legend by leading southern West Virginia miners who had been evicted from their homes by bandits in a six-month guerrilla campaign to reclaim their towns; by escaping detention and severe torture by neofeudal security forces in Columbus, OH; by helping to organize Carbondale, IL, to reopen Southern Illinois University using its own resources instead of state funds; and by helping to organize the evacuation of Dayton, TN, and other towns after the nearby Watts Bar nuclear plant suffered a severe radiation leak. Remains today one of the best-known Regulator captains, though his reputation in his hometown has been somewhat dented by the fact that he often sees his daughter only a few times a year.

Miscellaneous: Nothing as of now.

The Rocky Mountain Federation

Account Name: Clarcia
Metropolitan Area(s): The main metropolitan areas are Denver and Colorado Springs(Most of the Fromt Ramge as well). The governed area is most of Colorado minus much of the Eastern planes.

Leader: President John Hickenlooper
Governance: The Federation is structured much like a republic. The three branches are the Executive, Judicial and Legislative. The Executive Branch is the President, Vice President and the Heads of each department. The Judicial branch is the Supreme Court and all other federal courts. Finally, the Legislative branch has one Senate made up of three senators from each region of the country which never are changed. The President can also create laws, but they have to be approved by Congress and each body has unlimited terms. Senators last 6 years and the President's term lasts four years.
Miscellaneous: The Federation was the brainchild of former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper. He united the State and political parties after the Widespread instability of the 'Great Collapse' as it is known here and forged the new nation after securing the support of the Colorado National Guard, Air Force Academy, and NORAD. The citizens of the Federation believe that Colorado is destined to bring unity to the Rocky Mountains and protect all of the people in the area. While not particularly concerned in expanding into the Great Plains, Mountain Troops are being trained to march Northward and Southward...

Alright. Do you mind if the Federation still wishes to control the mountains and bases their foreign policy around them? Thw Eastern planes aren’t as much of a priority though so that is fine.

[Clarcia]

One of the reasons I chose the front range area was to see how the mountains would be argued over and to interact with the new German empire. I can edit my nation to include the front range and exclude a lot of GW Eastern planes.

Also, do you plan on waiting on the people working on applications before the IC, or is it going to be after a few more new applications?
