O: But seriously, I don't want the CIA to keep trying to off us; they might get lucky eventually. We've got to do something about that.
 
You could probably make a Tom and Jerry knock-off based on Guangchou's No. 1 Power Couple and the spies trying to kill them. :V
i was thinking that too,maybe when we catch an enemy trying to kill us we can offer him a lighter punishement if he accept to play his own role in the episode that will be inspired by his atempt ?

"spite and schadenfreud: a series based on the various attempts to kill, hurt, spy on, intimidate and generally harm Wei Jungmin's, his family, and Guangchouen in general,very strongly inspired by various real attempts (although modifying the details enough for anyone trying to get information and idea on how to harm guangchou, jugmin or other from this series get a very very unpleasant surprise) and a lot of invented one too(wich are real and wich are fictive will be precised at the begining of the episod), the tone is mainly humorous, humiliating the agents and making fun of their mistake, although there are some very serious and dark moments when the situation requires it (killed an innocent person to disguise himself as him, targeted the president's children, tortured a security agent for information on the president, etc.) and sometimes epic when the guards save the situation in a courageous manner, sometimes if agent is caught and has not committed a truly heinous act or discovered crucial information he will be offered a lesser punishement and a strong endorsement for his acting skills in exchange for playing his own role in the series ."

what do you think ?probablt need some improvement but it sound fun

Map reminded me of the bonkers fact the french Guiana is still french territory irl, and thus part of the EU.

Sometimes a territory is so small and undeveloped that it juat doesnt make sense to seek independence nor grant it

Guyana is really useful as a place to launch rockets from,besides that its population,geography and industry make it a mostly rural area

Metropolitan france granting them independence would basically cutting them off from supply lines

In 2010 there were independence referendums,with 48% turn over (aka 48% of the pop went to vote)

Wich showed 70% didnt want independence

Guyanese people do still have issues and seek higher invesment on infrastructure and services by metropolitan france

I would like to do these:

Ireland is in deep trouble, wracked by unrest, strife, and economic despair. While technically in the camp of the EU, dangling very generous Economic and Industrial Aid in front of them could bring them over to us...and if that doesn't do it? Well, they have a revolutionary front fermenting within their nation...and one going ever more active. If we wish to help or tie them to ourselves before Ireland seeks help from Europe, we should act now.
-[] Freedom's Cry (+5 Reputation)
South Africa has long been under the yoke of imperialists, capitalists, tyrants, and the West. It is time that those who fight against their tyrannical regime are armed and trained as befitting a people yearning to be free.
-[] A Red Rising (+11 Reputation) (+4 People's Opinion) (+10% CyPac Cohesion)
Our efforts in South America are paying off, with Liberation Theology spreading ever faster in the fires of revolution. If some pushes were applied, some countries wouldn't be experiencing massive unrest...but open civil wars for the workers' freedom. The current turmoil is beginning to boil over all over the continent. With a relatively cheap effort and military supplies shipped over, the various movements and fronts could be brought into contact to increase their chances to successfully rise against the oppressors of the working class!

And we also need to get Mozambique its Promised Native Mingxiang. We only have two turns left, do we have enough actions left to finish this and what we need for the 5 year plan?
 
I didn't know about Liberation Theology before reading this update.

In hindsight, it makes complete sense for Christianity and Communism to go hand in hand. A carpenter fighting large institutions that he sees as greedy and hypocritical while advocating for the welfare of the poor and marginalized sounds pretty communist. I hope to see Communist Jesus succeed over Supply Side Jesus.

Yes, a socialist jesus would be swell. Please no iron man (Stalin) Jesus though, he would just be more crazy...
 
I've got a few questions.

If someone were to succeed in killing our boi, is there a succession plan in place? I mean, obviously it wouldn't be any of our kids - they're still too young - but would it be a free-for-all, an election, a collection of the top members of the military picking someone, our wife taking command, or something else? Officially, I mean. Unofficially it's probably a civil war.

I recall that the USSR, last we saw, was pretty deep into the malaise that characterized the years leading up to the dissolution of the country. Is that still trudging along, or has our sheer WTFery given them a shot in the arm? It'd be deeply terrible if we got through the Chinese Civil War (1980s edition) only for CyPac to lose our only nuclear armed member.

Have any of the communist guerrillas sent us messages asking to join CyPac once they overthrow the bourgeois and liberate the people and etc etc etc? Also, not exactly related to the above, but are there seriously actual armed communist rebels in Australia?
 
have we catched any of those agent who try to mess with us ?,what did we did with them ?

Yep. General elections within three months, with Wei Mai holding down the fort for the duration until a new Great Leader is elected. You chose People as the basis of your political power, so you don't need to fear the military getting ideas or entrenched party politicians squabbling over the throne.

They are moving. Not in a bad direction. Not in a good direction. But they are moving. So...better than OTL.
SirKaid said:

Some have, others have not, there is still a lot of confusion and it is quite the disorganized mess all told.
SirKaid said:

The Autonomous Australian Anarchic Workers Communes (Revised Working Title) are not a joke I make lightly.

Nope, you did not. You are unaware that they even did any attempts at all.

i think it would be funnier if we presented it solely as a fiction comedy bit, and any resemblance to actual assassination plots being unknowing, coincidental, and highly worrying to the americans.
because as HC said- we haven't even noticed the assassination attempts

how about:
[x] [COMMIEWOOD] Animated Series: Cats in Mausengrad: The agents of the Cats International Agency have a collar-tag to kill, as they pursue the destabilization of Mausengrad through various harebrained schemes, but most commonly through their ridiculous attempts on the life of Comrade-Leader Maose. Wholly Tom-and-Jerry level shenanigans, very little tension, with the cats being portrayed as a mixture of menacing as they plot and pitiable as they get lambasted for their comical failure by their intransigent superiors.

France always saw its colonies as direct extensions of itself, unlike say the UK which saw colonies as useful but ultimately separate. Its part of why they fought so hard in Algeria and still to this day keep putting their hands into their previous colonial subjects nations ways. Our world system is based around keeping the drawn borders of countries as stable as possible, so I doubt France will lose Guiana or their other remaining non-European land.

Yeah, I had casually heard that was the case. TBH I'm not sure how much of a movement their is for a independent Guiana.

Makes me wonder, If a person could go back in time to 1946, and were given the job to de-colonize the continent of Africa, and you had the full support of the colonizers and UN, how best to go about it.

How could decolonization not be a absolute shit show, there is to much stuff to balance especially with 40s understandings of African race ethnicity and geography being what they know about, modern stuff wouldn't help really.

did someone understood what heppend here ?"
"The unions want a...really?" Jungmin asked on the phone, slightly baffled.
"Yes, Great Leader. They were insistent about it, too," the man on the other side replied.
"Ooookay...I'll sign the paperwork then," Jungmin said, still confused.
"As you say.""

Ahh, the best part of doing communism and socialism right is that, barring those truly or mostly utopian and benevolent democracies and capitalist polities, you're liable to have a lot of allied or sympathetic minds among the lowest classes. The Americas is now learning that the hard way.

Either the west starts treating people better, or they start making agents out of their people for us. It's a win-win situation.
 
-[ ] Commiewood:creation of the greatest and shiniest re-dubbing institute of world media of the most prestigious and best smelling nation of guangchou, there are hundreds of thousands of books, films, comics , video games and others (the music does not need to be re-dubbed) which are created around the world every year, the purpose of this institute would be to re-dubb them in guang and other languages to make them accessible to the citizen of Guangchou and his allied nations and reversly traduce media from guangchou and allied nation to spred them to the world.

maybe a little too big for a comiewood action?

We're going to have to be sneaky about it, I think our best bet will be narco torpedoes - towed submarine cargo containers filled with goods that are dragged by fishing boats and handed off in open water.
