How are hippies treated in your nation?

Postby Neohippies » Wed Apr 04, 2012 12:37 pm

Tell us about it. Are they neutral, respected, frowned upon... or tortured to death with stun guns? Do they have to be integrated to your society and culture or can they keep their own customs?

Our nation name is probably quite self-explanatory. Every last citizen in our 'state' or technically a collective of anarchic hippie communes is, surprise surprise, a hippie! So we, like, have all the rights as citizens to do whatever we want to do and junk.

We're pretty much all hippies, so it's all good here.

I can sense this becoming a competition of "who can be more brutal"

Malgravean's tolerate them however some of their beliefs are frankly quite weird and only a few dozen citizens in the nation call themselves hippies.

The social construct of the 'hippie' is completely, or nearly unknown in Harkonna. The idea of a backseat 'intellectual' is generally seen as repugnant and lazy.

Thank god hippie culture hasn't reached our shores. If they did come we'd let them in but be disgusted.

Also please note that I generaly post once on NSG to state my opinion the chances of me replying are little to none. But in an RP I will be active.

They're gathered up, lined up against a wall and...


...respectfully told that because of prejudice and intolerance that is beyond the government's control, they must leave or they may be the victim of hate-crimes.

The nation of Aaronfrejonesia accepts all of its citizens so long as they meet their military service and training requirements. So if hippies are willing (which I'm sure they aren't) to serve in the military whatever they do in their personal lives outside of the military and so long as it does not endanger others is fine with us. Not serving in our military while a citizen will result in prison time however.

Hippies are allowed here, and have the same rights as any other citizen. They tend to live in their own little settlements away from the cities and towns.

Most Fatatatutians are already beach bums and street peddlars, so hippies can be integrated into our society quite easily.

In the sense of preaching peace, love, environmentalism, fraternity, equality, and tolerance, most of us are hippies.
We just don't have the "long hair, drugs, peace sign, unshaven, tie-dye" aspects.

We are proud to say that hippies are an extreme rarity. When the movement first surfaced in Naraubia in the 1970's about 96% of the hippies were quickly arrested for things such as drug possession, drug production, drug dealing, public nudity, public indecency, petty theft, vandalism, trespassing, and disturbing the peace. Most of the remaining 4% that weren't arrested stopped being hippies out of fear of being being jailed for their crimes.

The "hippies" never really developed as a group here.
That is not to say that they would be unwelcome, however.

So, living in communes and sharing everything is not...socialist?

Hippies are treated in just the same way as every other person in our nation. They follow the same laws and if they break those laws then they will receive justice in just the same way as any other person.

Bizenghast does not discriminate against hippies, nor does it allow hippies to use that as an excuse and a way to avoid justice.

Laws are followed. But we do not treat hippies with disgust or with favouritism. It does not matter from what group a person is from as long as they obey the few simple laws without doing harm to themselves or others then they will be left in peace. However if they break the few simple, sensible, fair laws that Bizenghast has, then they will be punished just as severely as the next person.

Bizenghast doesn't care if a person is a hippie or a non hippie (whatever you define those two groups as) they are treated in the same way as any other person.

Hippies are vital to Suche nach Wahrheit. Our national animal, the Panther, dines exclusively on hippies. Of course, this means that people stop acting like hippies, so the government has to re-define the term hippie occasionally....

How we wish we could say the same as you. We curtailed the 1960s Counterculture with a series of Constitutional Amendments and fierce reactionism from really ticked off old geezers that decided to finally vote before TurtleShroom became amoral.

It was a new age of anti-apathy. Most hippies these days are in mental asylums or begging the drug cartels or Mafia for another hit of the bong or bottle. Or, they're expressing "solidarity" with thouse filthy catgirls. AGAIN.

You know what's worse than a hippie? An environmentalist. Sure, our turtles need clean water to survive in the swamplands, and no one wants to set a river on fire, but good gosh, LET US DRILL IN PEACE.

Setting rivers on fire and draining swamps is a jolly past time!
