Oh, thank you very much.
Heey, wait a minute, I think you are making fun of us.
Well, let me tell you Sir, there are at least three of us!

Kropotkin, Liebknecht and Necazian – the surviving trio that led our Republic to oblivion – are to be left under house arrest indefinitely for their crimes against the Republic. All other Anarchist and Independent politicians are to be granted an amnesty on the condition they do not continue to publically support those poisonous factions.
Objection!
If I return with armed militia, can I participate in the elections and get elected?
Freer consumption, freer enterprise, cash moves around unhindered, demand defines production.
No subsidizing, we should be producing what the people demand, not what the party thinks people might need.
Next scapegoat is Lenin.
Now who's a Tyrant?
If I return with armed militia, can I participate in the elections and get elected?
Actually I think the next scapegoat is whoever Lenin says it is.
EDIT: and I think he just said its the French.
And so Socialism end and Fascism begin.
Even though extreme, I think Lenin's measures are reasonable in light of recent events. I especially like the amnesty for the members of illegal factions.
EDIT: And things like what J. Passepartout just said wont exactly make the normalization of the republic go quicker...

Flat taxes are fair, the state should not tax more than what is needed.
Privatization? Would you prefer free economy or state capitalism, that is the question.
In small states state capitalism can succeed on some scale, but we are not small and free men should be allowed to compete and strive to make better livings.
We should have a more clear line between state-capitalistic parties and free economy-parties.
Instead of that we have anarchists and Marxists fighting civil wars.
I prefer the economy not to be in the hands of the wealthy few; it should be in the hands of the democratically elected. At this point in the evolution of the Republic, that means the state. Also, I think it's fair that those who can pay more taxes should do so, while the poor should pay less; that those taxes should then go towards helping those who need it the most. It's the classic Marxist principle of "From each according to ability, to each according to need".
In this timeline though, most Conservatives would be Protectionists and most Liberals (Left = Liberal back in the 19th century) would support Free Trade. If we assume that the Socialists are the Ultra-Left on the 19th century political spectrum then the Anarchists would be right of the socialists but still far left by 19th century political standards.

I believe two of them should be shot, for I think for less Blanqui was. Also Enewald should be shot too
You think banning an entire section of political and economic opinion is "reasonable"? You think making war on the republic's government and workers is "reasonable"? You think the destruction and betrayal of the freedoms we fought and died for is "reasonable"?Even though extreme, I think Lenin's measures are reasonable in light of recent events. I especially like the amnesty for the members of illegal factions.
If he bans views opposing his narrow political ideas then he is no Socialist.Yes, 'cause Lenin's such a Fascist.
A tyrant is someone who rules without a opposition that would be able to prevent the tyrant from doing everything the tyrant wishes to do.
And so Socialism end and Fascism begin.
Blanqui was a hero who strengthened the VSVR and was tricked into rebellion by his political opponents. Kropotkin and Liebknecht led our VSVR down the path of ruin and Civil War. They should be shot, if not hung, drawn and quartered.Blanqui was shot for making war on the government of the republic. Who did that in this example? Agreed about Enewald though.
Judging from their policies I would most definitely say they do (remembering this is the 19th Century), as any form of non-state redistribution can only be described as Capitalism. (again, 19th century)They don't actually stand for anything of the kind of bourgeois free trade policies that we know of. They stand for non-statist methods of redistribution and oversight; free trade is the closest thing to that.
