  • firstly for any non-Hexbearians: fuck this. we were never ideologically shut in, we just accurately realised that theres no point having major sectarianism and screaming at eachother in our forum over minor differences at this stage, as it should be when we’ve all ruthlessly criticised the preconceived ideas of the societies most of us have grown up in. noone who stuck around was a halfwitted and properly ideologically shut in liberal or someone who was kidding themselves about being centrist. we didnt let these kind of people pretend they were right or had something valuable in their theoretical outlook on politics, because they/you really probably don’t. if you want to talk about some other specialisation you have or a unique outlook on other things, sure, maybe. politics? philosophical conception of how the world currently is and what the issues are and what might fix them? unless it’s some type of socialism, none of us give a single fuck

    anyway thinking of anything in the line of “authoritarian” as a descriptor is accurate means you’ve already lost some communist cred. authoritarianism is made up. noone is truly free in any ideological manifestation of society. it’s simply different levels of coercion. and communism, with its ideals met, is the least coercive system of societal organisation. on the way there will always be practical issues as every AES state has found, with the USSR, NK, Cuba and China for example navigating a siege-like global terrain and implementing cultural change in different ways that have ALL lead so far to the people’s general livelihood improved from what it was before communism. that is absolutely undebatable. under capitialism each of these countries would have had near zero development and their people would still be generally impoverished rather than a steadily developing wellbeing slowly emerging under, again, siege-like global conditions








  • Hell Yeah. I say near-complete honesty because the only shit thing i did was promise the reformist vice presidency because I didn’t think Lucian would become an option at the time, just knew Petr would need to go because he’s a loose cannon POS. And i fulfilled the promise. As for the other things the anti-corruption police wasn’t an option because i didn’t want to fund the police and didn’t think anti-corruption police would be an option. See this game gives you some real out of nowhere choices sometimes and gives you “hey fuck you decide on this really important thing right now in a very dichotomous way without talking to anyone that matters” a lot of other times


  • I did some reading after playing blind and you can do even better theoretically by not being couped and becoming VP of the People’s Front but that requires extreme loving up to the military and all sorts of liberal dishonest political sucking and fucking. so i’m not roused enough to try for a second run. by force of will and near complete honesty i got this exiled but overall epic-ly winning ending. only possible better ending IMO (i don’t think can happen in the game other than an unresolved civil war?) is complete proletarian revolution and wiping the governmental slate clean
