“I’m telling you, it’s those darn immigrants,” quips Dana Underwood, your paranoid Minister of the Homeland, who’s twitching and itching her hands furiously. “Without those folks here, we’d be much better off. You must stop any new people from entering our great nation and kick out the ones already here. Then, we’d be pure at last.”

"Scratching her hands", surely?

Using itch as a verb is relatively common where I'm from, and it rhymes.

Edit: Also, "hand gestures" and "ward-off" (marked) should not be hyphenated.3. “@@LEADER@@, you’re not gonna listen to those repressed nutters in the Anti-Sex League, are you?” groans Luigi Santos, author of sex-positive guide The Big Book of Bonking. “You should encourage @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ to adopt a healthy attitude. Perhaps provide more breaks so couples who work different shifts can see each other. Nothing’s too good for the nation’s health.”

Have there actually been cases of this IRL? That'd be pretty interesting

Of children growing up in the wild and later being rediscovered by humans? Definitely. Of those children still managing to belatedly learn language and explain their experiences? Tricky. Language is one of those things that seems to have trouble sticking if you don't learn it early. (The one The Free Joy State linked could talk, but he was only abandoned into the wild when he was 7, so had time to get the basics of language down first.)Westinor wrote:Have there actually been cases of this IRL?
All nations are assumed to have a tool-using civilization. I don't think leaving children to grow up without any kind of adult care is viable for an intelligent species that works with concepts like a "government", regardless of its evolutionary roots.The Free Joy State wrote:EDIT: Also, worth remembering non-human species may leave their children -- lizards, for example, abandon their eggs. Not all nations are human.

It also slightly references Humans.
Now I'm not sure if the rule of "mentioning real world not allowed" from the World Assembly applies to Issues, but if it does, might I suggest replacing "man and woman" with stuff like "males and females" as well as "Earth" with "our home Planet".
I know it's in reference to Star Trek, which (although I'm not sure) takes place in a universe that does have Earth, I still think it should probably be more universal.

You should add an option to unironically side with the Nazis. I have no idea why that doesn't exist yet.

They robbed seventeen convenience stores, shot three people, and stole clothes from my Mama’s washing line.

"The government should make this a reality!” exclaims superfan Miranda Hall, dressed in a replica uniform of the show’s main character, Arnie Cost. “We can hearken back to an era when folk could leave their doors unlocked, and neighbors actually talked to each other."
