and I also realized that powerful public speakers promoting reform could be an interesting topic to cover.
As such, I made a draft about that in that spirit. I did, however, try to keep it vague so all nations could get this.
(Also, in the event that it's accepted, I'm completely fine with it not existing for another year or being published on a similar kind of day.
)Title: March of @@CAPITAL@@
The Issue: A now famous figure, Martinez Lethinson the Third, has made great and powerful speeches that have been broadcasted all across @@NAME@@, protesting some of the government's policies. Millions are applauding this man's actions, while others are remaining skeptical, worrying that this may instead hurt and divide the nation.
Validity: Public protest is legal
Option 1: "This man should be praised for his bravery to stand up and challenge the government," gleams @@RANDOMNAME@@, who's been to almost all of his speeches. "If a person's voice can be heard and honored across the whole nation, then it's probably time for the government to step in and listen to them. Let this be a lesson to you, and let us usher in an era where you, the government, will listen to the voices that are most powerful - that of your citizens!"
[effect]powerful revolutionaries can repeatedly persuade the government to hurt society
Option 2: "What! Are you crazy?" gasps @@RANDOMNAME@@, much to the displeasure of the previous speaker. "This is just mob mentality blown way out of proportion! We can not allow any one person from outside the government to have this much control over society. Before you know it, it'll be secession, then anarchy! We need to shut this man down, and everyone who follows his footsteps, before this goes any farther, and arrest them all!"
[effect]powerful revolutionaries trying to help society are immediately punished to the fullest extent
Option 3: "You know, I think I know a way to make everyone happy," schemes your Minister of Propaganda, writing what appears to be a speech. "We should hire people to pretend to speak against the government, when they'll actually champion positions in our favor. Of course, the common public wouldn't know that they'd be working for us. That way, we can push agendas with public consent. It's win-win! Oh, except for Mr. Lethinson. We'll just assassinate him and say he died from natural causes."
[effect]citizens are bewildered by the government protesters working for the government
