[PASSED] Liberate Nazi Europe

[Galiantus II]

Look, I'm not a member of the "Nazi Europe" region, but, really? Is it necesary to "Liberate" a region with a different opinion? Geez, that's even more intolerant that nazis! (And I'm a national socialist)
In that case, we could start "liberating" another extremist regions such as communist ones

And c'mon it's a joke

How about we go coup all the regional delegates who approve this, and make plans to use this tactic on the passworded region with the largest vote on this? And then we could also invade the founderless delegates approving it! Anyone who thinks this proposal is okay had better be okay with armies marching in to take their delegacy and take them out of power.

The delegation of Mengsk votes AGAINST this bill. Let Nazi Europe live in its own little delusional world.

My delusional world begins and ends with a fantasy of teaching the GCRs the difference between the singular possessive and plural forms of Nazi.

I harbor little hope that the world will recognize this unedited legislation for what it is: payback for my educational crusade. Gregorach is correct. Should you sink us with shit that reads as if you channeled Dogberry and Verges, by God there will be blood. I'm talking fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!

Moderation has given us the green light to create NAZI EUROPE II: The Empire Strikes Back.

Wait for it.

Namaste,
Dr. Egon Vader Spengler

Admiral, it is true, this man has no dick.

[Imperium of Tanith]

I am voting against this, not because that I'm a Nazi lover, but because I know for a solid fact that this is being put up so that we are essentially allowing Raider Regions like TNI and the Black Riders to walk in and take over.

Actually it's so the GCR militaries can walk in and take over.

You get the point.

[Zeorus]

I have yet to hear anyone (not just in this thread, but ever) give me a good enough reason why it's ok to abuse the Liberation function like this to pick on Nazis simply because they're Nazis.

[Mad Jack]

I love you.

As for not posting it here first, this was drafted with input from every GCR delegate. It didn't need to be posted here first.

Oh, so you ADMIT to conspiring against Nazi Europe!

It was public knowledge that the GCR delegates were meeting to discuss the Nazi Problem.

So just because you are among the most powerful players in the game means it is okay to bully someone

Oh please. I've suffered serious bullying in my life, and this isn't bullying.

At all.

Look, I'm not a member of the "Nazi Europe" region, but, really? Is it necesary to "Liberate" a region with a different opinion? Geez, that's even more intolerant that nazis! (And I'm a national socialist)

Killing millions of people is more tolerant than 'liberating' a region that celebrates that act on an online text-based nation simulator?

In that case, we could start "liberating" another extremist regions such as communist ones

You're welcome to.

Good luck with that one.

Exactly, they are abusing the liberation function. Nazi Europe wasn't taken over by raiders, so there is nothing to liberate them from. They're just a small, condemned, region that nobody likes.

It's fair game.

NE opened the gates when they tried to do it to Haven. Now it's time for them to burn.

[North Chicopee]

Let's be fair and see if this liberation is appropriate using the guides posted by this very council:



NOPE

[Cerian Quilor]

Those guides are not rules. The rules of the WA boil down to mob rule.

[Baiynistan]

Seems the regional head was appointed over a year ago. I find it strange that the region should suddenly need 'liberating' now.

While I disagree with much of the National Socialist doctrine, I appreciate that their dossier explicitly says that region denizens should not harass Jews or Communists.

I say, as long as the region remains non-Imperialist and non-aggressive, it should be allowed to keep its sovereignty.

NOPE

I guess this makes that obsolete.

I agree with Zeorus. Couldn't have said it better myself.

[Hesse]

Noting the region to already be condemned by Security Council Resolution #37 for atrocious acts of hostility and intolerance

Why note this when you're all being hostile and intolerant towards a region yourselves just because of their political ideology? Seems hypocritical.

...

Even Zionist controlled Nazi's on puppet strings under GD's friend Christian Reich AKA Rupture Farms co deserve a locked room to play in.

NE is not a threat to anyone as a Parody region....come on guys, another Liberation?

[Captain Woodhouse]

Oh, so you ADMIT to conspiring against Nazi Europe! Glad you could all come to a 'consensus' on this, because it doesn't change the fact that you are doing this purely out of a dislike of a particular group of players who happen to be friendly with the region (GGR) who likes advertising on your RMBs.

You're out of the loop regarding the relationship between NE and The Greater German Reich. We pulled our embassy with them some time ago. It wasn't the first time.

Yes. And not only that, but other players (like myself) will join in; not to further Nazism, not because we don't have an eye for evil views, but because we wish to defend the rights of a soveregn minority to exist independant of the rule of the majority.

We appreciate your support; however, I'm uncertain what 'evil views' you think we espouse, or whether you believe the existence of a region called 'NAZI EUROPE' is sufficient enough to prove that the current vocal members promote Nazism. I'd require evidence of the latter beyond some of our tongue-in-cheek RMB blather. I've played in NE on-off since 2010. At least since that time, the region has been very forgiving of member and visitor race, religion, orientation, etc. As I've said before in the SC, it's gotten us into a lot of trouble with other Nazi themed regions, and is some of what's behind the current hostility between NE and those regions.

I've observed a whole lot more intolerance among some far left and far right regions with prohibited nation categories. We've nothing like that going on in NE. In fact, we allowed a Democratic Socialist to take the seat in our Satellite BLITZKRIEG, until s/he approved this Liberation proposal.

I've tried to reason with the lynch mob before to no avail. They've no excuse to open us up to invasion other than they can.

Fine. So just because you are among the most powerful players in the game means it is okay to bully someone, essentially, just because you can. This doesn't just go for you, this goes for 1) the auther, 2) every delegate who approved it, and 3) everyone who votes for it, to the magnitude of however many votes they have.

Gays, Jews, and other targets of Nazi hate shouldn't have to deal with the presence of Nazis when they play NationStates. They are the bullies here.

It would be better if the NationStates mods didn't allow Nazi Europe, GGR, and similar regions to exist. Failing that, the next best thing is to make in-game existence for Nazis as miserable as the rules of the game will allow. This resolution is a positive step in that direction.

It's disappointing that so many players -- including quite a few whom I respect -- have elevated in-game R/D ideology over RL decency.

How about taking your personal vendettas to the john where they belong: international gestapo courts

NAZI EUROPE is not a parody region.

[Hesse]

You complain about people being targeted by hate, yet you are not hesitant to employ the same idea to National Socialists. We are being targeted just because of the way we think, and that's the very behavior you're fighting against. You have become your own enemy.

This also applies to those who believe this proposal is justified for similar reasons. "Equality and tolerance... for some."

Is Nazi Europe actually doing Anything, these days?

It isn't nessesarily RL decency to give so much of a crap about Nazism in a game, especially when at least 50% of the nazi players aren't actually, you know, real Nazis.

[Aryan Shield Command]

But.. but that would go against all you stand for right? "Hate and Intolerance" is not allowed here in NationStates except when it comes from the opposition. Right?

How can you and others argue against Nazi regions, real or Parody, and not be hypocritical. You can not have it both ways.

If the rules are slanted in favor of one group over another...does not not Discriminate? Are we not under the same protection as any other region type? Yes we are.

Nazi Europe used to be a raider region and earned the condemnation. Now they are reduced to a dozen members and are no threat.
This Liberation is against the principles of the Security Council.

I urge all to change vote to AGAINST. Thank you
