"Gay mafia" sounds pretty badass, to be perfectly honest. Classic, I'm jealous.

And "gay goodfella" has a nice ring to it.

In terms of raw hilarity, though, nothing quite tops "gaystapo."

We all may have our disagreements, but we can all agree on one thing. I say it every night, every morning, every afternoon, and it's so true: the Federalist Party is a MESS.

He isn't a Federalist, though Wink

I could stay home, but flipping my vote makes it twice as effective.

A protest vote would be wasted, but a vote for Labor ensures that the Feds who support this nonsense go out.



...and that Laborites who support the same policies, in addition to more that you disagree with, go in.

Sure. And then when the Federalists get tired of losing they'll have a decision to make.

If I choose to support the party then I reward and reinforce bad behavior.

Muzzling socons is not cool. Muzzling socons who are running *for* you as a candidate? Really?

I find it sad that the party is so fixated on satisfying evergreen, that they would dump on someone who is actually helping and voting for them. Hello.

Labor is always going to own this issue. If people want a party that supports this, they will vote Labor. Why would they bother to support the Federalists when they can support Labor?

I'm sorry, but the idea that helping Laborites get elected, and thus helping them implement liberal policies, somehow helps advance conservatism in any way (short-term or long-term) is completely beyond me.

Tmth did more to advance conservatism in the game than you ever will, you homophobic deformity. Kindly go back to whatever hellhole we found your sorry ass in, and stop polluting the game with your sh**tposting.

Ahh, the 'conservatism' that smears and attacks other conservatives. Glad to see the thin verneer getting scraped off.

What exactly did he do to advance conservativism here? We had an opportunity to pass a lot of stuff. Instead, all we got was the evergreen nonsense.

Right. I see. Expressing conservative ideals is sh**tposting. Why don't you join labor? I hear they are recruiting.

Last I checked, support for traditional marriage is a conservative ideal. If you don't like it maybe you should be in another party.


Give me a ring when you pass a conservative bill -- any conservative bill -- at the federal level. Don't worry, I won't hold my breath.

And only one of us here has joined Labor. It isn't me.

I got the House of the South to pass income tax abolishment... That's pretty significant. Convinced folks that if we didn't like the results, we could always go back and flip it again.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. And tmth, during his many years in the game, passed innumerable other conservative bills on both the regional and federal level.

I'm not the one blasting conservatives for holding conservative ideals.

didn't say you were, bro. just taking note of the fact that you're supporting leftist politicians because you're such a true conservative Smiley

Encke needs to read a little bit more closely. Again, I am not calling to leave the Atlas, but rather the South.

This is irrelevant, as the regions are defined in the Constitution, and making a fourth one would require an amendment.
