No, you are not being suppressed. Your fiances and activities are monitored, not restricted. You can still do the full fun stuff, such as protest (non-violence), assemble, vote, campaign, etc.

The reason you are under suspicion is that your party leaders have accepted funding from the Internationale for their campaigns, and those same parties were also planning on giving the Internationale territorial concessions. If you think a government investigation into German Leftists ties with the Internationale is a crime, what about the far left's backroom deals with the Internationale?

Have you guys ever considered that the Leftists were being funded by the Internationale without the Leftists even knowing? It's a possiblity. Maybe the Internationale hate our guts for our compromising positions and support for the democratic order, but want a casus belli that doesn't involve them claiming German territory. So they fund The Left, in the hopes that reactionaries would find out and suppress the German Syndies, giving the French Syndies the chance to intervene.

Further, while Syriana may have been in favor of territoral compromise, he does not speak for all Leftists. I for one will not support handing over an inch of German territory.

Furthermore, Syriana himself is know for his rhetorical flip-flopping. For example, I asked about the ABNB and The Weltreich's policies towards French territorial claims. Syriana said this before the election

Syriana said:
If the United German Socialist Alliance or the Anarcho-Bolshevik National Liberation Movement came to power, the political ideology of the German and French states would become identical, firmly putting an end to antagonistic Franco-German relations and forming them both together in a grand coalition against the Fascist front in Eastern Europe.

Furthermore, the United German Socialist Alliance aims to enact a full-scale reform of the German Armed Forces, in order to modernise them and promote efficiency. Even if French treachery became an issue, our superior military strength would ensure German dominance and maintain the stability of the region.

Now Syriana advocates handing over German territory, after the election. But before, the UGSA implied that the MERE presence of a Syndicalist government was enough to keep France happy and get them to stop their claims on German territory. It's clear now that Syriana was attempting to pull a fast one over me, and by extension, the Left. If Syriana had revealed his true beliefs on our territory, I would not have voted for the UGSA. It is possible other Leftists would agree. So, don't ever think that the German left will let France take our territory, and don't let Syriana speak for us.

In fact, while you guys are busy ranting about Syndies, I've been attempting (and failing) to stop World War II from even occurring in the first place.

Or is that ok because the Far Leftists are doing it? See? Even your own post is glorifying the Internationale, the same group that just recently toppled several democratic governments around the world by force. And you're saying the German government is hypocritical?

And why do you automatically assume these governments are democratic? What if they rig elections, or engage in "oppression", perhaps the very same security measures that you've been considering? Of course, there are many wrongs that the Internationale has done, no question about that. But there may have been some "justified" rebellions too. We can't just tar all rebellions in one brush as being "evil".

Umm....TRP, in the news, said that the far left was funded by the Internationale. So yes, I do have evidence of foreign syndicalist involvement, thank you very much.

Funded is not the same as involvement. It is possible the Internationale may have merely sought to fund our organizations merely as a way to undermine them in the eyes of Germany.

The way to deal with this issue is to have all members of The Left refuse to accept foreign funding, but it is fair that other parties should have to accept the same conditions.

Plus, you aren't being restricted. Your finances and ties are being investigated because of the foreign involvement. Plus, those parties have had a history of resorting to violence and terrorism for their goals.

{We aren't just being "restricted". You are proposing a loyalty oath in the Cabinet, a loyalty oath that, while "optional", would increase the "infamy" of the party. The loyalty oath, among other things, forces the party to accept the Kasier, while the ABNB and UGSA are against the whole idea of a Kasier. This isn't monitoring.}
[Ignore this, C_c did not propose the loyalty oath]

And what happened after the 1936 election? Where's all the violence and terrorism in Germany? Remember, there was a chance for the Left to wage and sponsor an revolution within Germany. Instead, there were revolutions everywhere BUT Germany. Maybe there is an exception to our movement, as our leftist parties are not connected to radicalism.

The Haxists however do a history of violence, look at their actual profile of their party:

The National-Climate Radicals are mostly known for their continued spree of terror bombing against what they see as 'evil corporate pollution conservative communazi entreprises of DOOM!'. Aside from that, the NCRP pushes for a radical conservative-liberal agenade with a heavy emphasis on nationalism and militarism, because, and I quote party leader Hax 'Germany is the gretezt ntion in the wurlds n we should liek kill all them inferiooors lololololol!'

And yet, no restriction or monitoring, even when the NCRP committed actual terror attacks?

Or maybe that they agree the far Left has done legally dubious things and is deserving a surveillance and investigation?

Like what? Make veiled and boastful threats about world-wide revolution that could not possibly be carried out, like Syriana? Maybe we should ban that person from voting in the 1938 election--oh wait.

Your rights aren't being taken away. Stop the slanderous grandstanding.

[Yet, you are still trying to ram through a loyalty oath telling The Left to swear loyalty to the Kasier, when most of the Left has agreed on one thing, removing the Kasier from office. I do want to keep the Kasier in office, but many people in the Left do not, and by placing that condition in that oath, you are basically restricting what the parties can do. Sure, the oath is "optional", but you said plainly that refusal to take their oath will lead to "infamy", meaning you may have very well wanted the left to refuse the oath so that you can justify more monitoring.

Let me ask you this: How does accepting the existence of the Kasier have anything to do with preventing violence? It does not.

I asked you in the Reichstag to modify this loyalty oath. You refuse to reply back, and this loyalty oath concerns me. I'll back the No-Confidence vote proposed by GLM until you modify this Loyalty Oath to drop all references to the Kasier, or even better drop the whole plan and just focus on stopping the Internationale.]
{IGNORE THIS, C_c did not propose the loyalty oath}

Again, there isn't any repression. Repeating a false statement over and over doesn't make it true.

You've been repeating the refrain that just because the Internationale funded the Left, the Left must be controlled by the Internationale, when the reality may not be the case. I suppose you need to drive the point home though.

This IS, of course, why we are investigating. After the revelations of Internationale funding, any sane person would suspect the transfer of something a little more explosive then money between the Internationale and Germany's Syndicalists.

Criminals, if there are any, will be found, and the party overall will be exonerated. Surely you agree with that aim?

Maybe, but let's see if the investigation can be non-partisan. Invite some moderate Syndicalists on board too, so the radical Syndicalists don't accuse the investigation of being a "witch hunt".

Also, looking back at the Cabinet, it seems that only one member is proposing a Loyalty Oath (yourworstnightmare), and luckily, nobody is accepting them, so I revoke the No Confidence Vote. My bad. Sorry for the accusations C_c.

The police have been instructed to follow protocol to the letter. No German is above the law, and conversely, every German has the protection of the law.
 
we could appoint someone to Kaiser but he would be so for the rest of the game, and hold only a ceremonial post (can make Speech of the Kaiser) without actually influencing the course of the game

I elect myself Kaiser, because my daddy was kaiser, and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his daddy was kaiser and his uncle was kaiser.

DNVP see what he says! HE IS A TRAITOR!
HE SAYS HE IS THE KAISER!
 
Also, C_c, this is the main reason why the GLM was upset at your monitoring. It appears that the monitoring is considered an authoritarian action according to the TRP, and the Left is anti-authoritarian.

This move gains +2 authoritarian slider moves for Germany. We are now Paternal Autocrat. Note that aggressive moves against the opposition may descend Germany into fascism...

In fact, where is the opposition in all this? You guys are being restricted and nobody is complaining or debating? The ABNB should be dancing on their chairs right about now ;)

Both myself and Great-chairman have adressed this issue, we are a happy authoritarian democracy once again (the 'Rogue politician' event).
 
as recent intervention in the netherlands is called for, I will re-post my counter invasion plan in case of war. It can be revised but its pretty solid with just pure infantry support and artillery

@ TRP, how dare you guys have friends!!! ;)

@ Kovan, we are not at war yet. We still have time to place some pieces of our own on the playing-field...

Since current debate is more or less dead, let me start with some questions of the Vice Chancellor to the Reichstag:

- Who do the parties see as our friends in the world?

- What social reforms would you have proposed in our place?

- How should we have dealt with possible international <=> German political parties connections?

- Which military reforms would you all propose?

I think this gives us all something to do till the next update is written.
 
So you think you could just overwhelm the Maginot Line?
Awful plane! Even Göring could do it better!

Maginot line? this is through the north?? and really plane? No plan is full proof but i would like to see the haxist plans for an invasion if your so much better? :D
 
So you think you could just overwhelm the Maginot Line?

It doesn't exist in KR...

IC: Guys, calm down. The Netherlands will be dealt with, but only after all the pieces are in place. The worst thing we can do is panic and rush into a situation, only to make it worse.
 
- Who do the parties see as our friends in the world?

Japan is our best friend if we play our cards right. The real debate is who to ally with in asia, Qing is the obvious choice but what happens if japan declares war on the chinese? we will lose in asia so personally im pro japan

Besides that I want princley in our alliance. They have a stratigic position and can gain up to 93 ic and will have a nice flow of troops to send us. So instead of Selling sir lanka , why not just give it to them for a alliance?

- What social reforms would you have proposed in our place?

cant think of any :p

- How should we have dealt with possible international <=> German political parties connections?

I would love to but it seems that we can't. They have us on 2 fronts against the france and the USSR and that seems rough to mangage

- Which military reforms would you all propose?

Marines, lots of them, If the russians come at us, a landing at st.Petersburg will be perfect to cripple them and a landing in france near brittany would be proper and open up a second or maybe even 3 front if diplomacy with spain works
 
*lies* NCRP! :p And Laurence said they might pick someone... and I like making random speeches. I'll abstain from further campaigning if needed!

So that would we: "Kaiser Muffin I, Emperor of Germany" :D

It's fine by us, but do remember that all political bonds have to be severed, you will have to remain completely politically neutral.
Like me... ;)

So all you can do is roleplay as some powerless leader, are you willing to take this honorable position?

And everyone, are there any real objections?



"I did it, I killed Wilhelm II! Now I am the Kaiser!" - Muffin
:D
