Didn't want to create another thread, here seemed good enough for something south related-

Hadn't noticed it before, it's rather... "interesting" what the South's legislative process has devolved to. A bill thread is posted, YT instantly declares his "legislative prerogative" whatever the fck that is and the bill instantly passes unopposed.

What a unique take on the legislative process! Clearly taking inspiration from the National People's Congress or the Volkshammer.

I can now see why meme maroon communists are offering critical support to YT on his quest to destroy the Republic Tongue

I cannot unpack this on my phone but it's less useful to look at this ideologically and more in terms of attitude toward the game. In that sense the SNP share the same motivation as the Dengists, the AAD crowd and AtlasforumIRC. They all hated the game, they all have a dismissive view of most of the people who play it hence the lack of qualms about trollish behavior, and a strong desire to take it from the "nerds/furies" and/or destroy it with a very vague concept of a replacement, if at all, that usually lacks much in the credibility department.

If we were ever to get the whole of sexit, and were to compare it to Dengcord, I would bet they read very similarly.

I have said it a million times, the who in any given situation is less important than what those people represent in that context.

If somehow he said "yes, Griff, I agree to restore the Republic in its entirety and reestablish democracy" and then actually delivered

I'm genuinely glad to see others speaking out about this. In the above statement (underlined), this was exactly what I was referring to specifically: one year terms even by themselves are intolerable, let alone the practical (or actual) inability to recall.

With the HoB having the authority to amend the constitution by unanimous vote without consulting the voters its even worse than that, because they can just extend the term lengths via unanimous vote and never hold another election.
