What Political Party are you?

I am aligned to no political party. I hate politicians in game and in real life. Do not support them, they will only tax you afterwards.




Agreed on all points, I have no need or desire to be governed especially by a corrupt, lying, narcissistic, backstabbing, two-face, immoral pos politician. :)
 
My ingame inclination is actually not exactly follwoing your guidelines.

I am, basically, a communist. The glorious system of Wyrd enabled me to reach the stars and start my career trading agricultural machinery. I then went on to fight for the freedom of Eranin and, as a result, don't like the feds very much. I chose to align with the empire and support Aisling Duval, which is the most meaningful thing I can do ingame to further personal freedom and abolish the alienation of the poor. It might seem strange to follow an imperial leader for that, but all communist organisations are strictly local and won't achieve a thing. I am a believer of slow change and don't think the right way is to slaughter everyone and go "viva la revolucion" eveywhere if you want to achieve something durable. Working the empire from the inside seems the best way.

Then you are an Independent Unfettered Anarchist. So am I. We support No Governing structure and believe people should be smart and strong enough to take care of themselves.

Precisely. True freedom is the ability to govern yourself without the need of a third party and by looking after yourself, you indirectly look after others by showing them they don't need someone to tell them what to do, say and believe.
 
I completely agree. Freedom is Dangerous but knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave. Freedom can not be taken away or given. You always have it. Even a slave has an option. Obey or Die. Its harsh and negative but its true. These little babies upset because something might be "Negative" is annoying.

I am very much so, personally, a Federation Corporate Democrat.

I am not a friend of the Federation in ANY sense of the word. But I would fight to the death for your right to support them. If thats what you like you should be able to support them. Can you tell us Why you support them and maybe what kinda things you do to show your support. As a matte of fact I would love to hear from all of you on how you support your Party? How do you make a difference in the universe?
 
I couldn't choose an ideology, because all ideologies are just someone trying to make a mental map of reality and add standardized, prescribed ways for other people to respond to it.

But the map is not the territory. And the territory keeps changing. So ideologies always end up at odds with reality. Can't be bothered...


Robin Hood was quite good though, especially in Ridley Scott's version of the story.

Again I would point you towards the pirate life. Independent because you don't need help, Unfettered because you don't tow a party line or even follow rules. And then I would suggest anarchy which is the state of no government influence at all. No laws. Just you and your wits to protect you. No fines meh.. fines are so stupid. A number pops on my screen i just ignore it. Its nice to see so many Freemen respond to this post. Would still love to hear from more Federation, Empire, and Alliance players. What do you guys do to show your support for your political views?
 
You asked? Here's your answer.

It's a month since the last post, but I figured I'd add my $0.02

Technically, I'm an Independent Unfettered Anarchist. Since I've been out in the world, I've noticed most people are selfish. I'm certainly no exception, and Politicians are so far removed from being exceptions that they practically ARE the rule. They don't care about their constituents, all they want is the power that comes with the title. I'm not and never will be a pirate, but at least Archon Delaine and his ilk are up front about their self-serving agendas. I won't pledge myself to the Kumo crew, but I can at least appreciate their honesty.


The Feds are probably the worst of the bunch, but anyone who's seen my Inara profile knows I'm friendly with the Feds. Truth be told, it’s only because my area of operations just so happens to fall within their turf, therefore my transport runs tend to increase my reputation with them. In reality, Snyder Enterprise in the TZ Arietis system has what I need, and I'm going to avail myself of it for as long as it suits me. I find another decent stomping ground in Imperial or Alliance territory, I'll move there, become friendly with them. Either way, my factional reputation reflects not my political ideologies, but rather my needs at the moment.

The Federation claims to be a democracy, but they’re not. The only way you have a voice is if you have the money to back it up. Whether they see it or not, Federation citizens are slaves to their corporate masters. I refuse to be a slave. I’ll play by their rules on their turf, but as soon as I find anything that suits my needs better, I’m out.

The Empire is just as corrupt as the Federation, but it’s out in the open. Lawmakers that’re above the law? B.S. Though if you're a slave, at least you know it. They say it’s like ancient Rome, but in space. Maybe so, but I don’t really care. If I find they have something that suits my needs, you bet I’ll avail myself of it.


The Alliance seems to be the best of the Big Three, but they’re closed off. You want to get anywhere? You have to have a permit. Sure, their mutual defense strategy is effective, even smart, but it’s that overall compartmentalization that turns some people off. It feels too restrictive. And the government can’t seem to get much done with all the disagreements and concession-making. At least the military and its “Council of Admirals” can defend what needs to be defended when it needs it.

The Big Three, as I like to call them, all have their faults. But as long as their stations suit my needs, I’ll use any one of them, which usually leads to a friendly relationship. But make no mistake, I support nobody but myself and my wing, if I get into one.
