I'm not a fascist

Postby Anvali » Thu Apr 09, 2020 9:58 am

After I made a decision in my Issues tab, my nation Anvali was demoted. The description underneath my nation's name now says "Fascists".

I did not create Anvali to be a fascist nation. That would imply that I am right-wing, which is not true, and not okay. I make decisions based on my real-life Democratic beliefs, and I started picking answers that don't directly reflect my views after seeing ridiculous and unrealistic end-results every time I touched the decision I thought would be best.

What is going on?

Are you using the Liberal theme?
The North Sea People's Republic, colloquially known as Northaria, established in 1421 A.D. (current constitution: 2022).
A multiethnic Northern European nation with strong democratic and anti-feudal traditions, now building socialism.
We use NS stats, with the exception of tax rates and the related stats. The Northarian population is roughly 88.5 million as of last census.

Change your Theme under the Settings option to something other than Liberal. I recommend Dark!

You're probably using the "Liberal" theme for NS. If you switch to any other theme (like Dark or Antiquity) in your settings, you'll see it rendered as "Inoffensive Centrist Democracy". The only themes where nation categories change are Liberal and Conservative.

It says you are an Inoffensive Centrist Democracy, but both the Liberal and Conservative themes have different names for the classifications.

Lol, where is the problem? There is nothing bad to be fascist.
Jokes aside, I don't see where your nation is called fascist. Do you have an indication or a photo?

You are using the Liberal theme (http://www.nationstates.net/page=settings), which modifies the government category names to be seen through a liberal bias. Your actual government category is Inoffensive Centrist Democracy, which is displayed as "Fascists" on the Liberal theme and "Communists" on the Conservative theme - the joke being that, to people with extreme enough views, even centrists look like The Enemy.

Although your nation has been answering issues in a relatively left-wing manner - your civil rights are higher than your economic freedoms - your civil rights still aren't quite high enough to satisfy the extreme-left fanatics, from whose point of view you still look like you're right-wing.

Your nation is still fairly new, so this may well go away as you continue playing and better mold your nation to fit your views.

Everybody but you already explained the solution. They don't need to supply a photo.

I don't get notifications for this website so I didn't see any answers until now. Thank you for the answers. Yeah, I'm using the Liberal theme, but I don't know how to change that.

And to however said "not my problem", don't answer if you don't care. That's common decency.

Almost everybody.

Will this affect the description?

Thank you. I'm new to politics in real-life as well. So new that I only just figured out that Idaho is a Republican (Repub) state. And I work in Idaho.

I don't get notifications for this site, so I come in every couple days to check on things. My short-term goal is to get above 250-million citizens so I can establish my nation's Capital city, Venacia. I don't know why the site is set up where you can't tell people the names of your capital of leaders, so passing legislation is the only thing I can do.

The big reason why the site is set up like it is is just because, well, the whole ability to have your capital, leader, religion named wasn't even added for several years after the site.

Like I joined on my main account back in 2008 and, IIRC, those unlockables were added in 2009.

Plus, it works as a way to keep people playing this game, I suppose if you've got something to look forward to unlock as you slowly gain population. (And then by the time you've finally unlocked the last custom field, you're basically stuck here)
