Message | Surely then you must make it illegal for these horrible gays to be working in the military of Malivia?! Imagine the reputation our nation would have if word got out that we are being defended by homosexuals! And surely we can't allow people to sell themselves for sex, that's highly immoral too! And while we are at it, why don't we just take away all rights of anyone who doesn't follow the stereotype of a good straight christian. If the parliament of Malivia insists on forcing this country to go backwards, I suggest they take a look at a list of nations that currently ban all forms of homosexual sexual relations (in the real world). Notice how none of them are developed western nations? Taking away people's rights for religiously-motivated reasons is simply being ignorant, narrow-minded, and is going to lower standards of life for many citizens of Malivia. BUT if that is the will of the current parliament and it's controlling parties, so be it. |

Message | By western, do you mean Artanian or Majatra? We further request that that the Leftists give proper respect to our majority religion, Geraja, after which our nation is named. |

Message | Malivia Left requests that the Supporters of Science in Design respect individual party's rights to have an opinion that may differ from the norm. We remind the Supporters of Science in Design that political parties are expected to adequately represent ALL peoples within a nation, not just the majority. Malivia Left is focussed on curing the problems within Malivia that minority groups are facing at the hands of the three current ruling parties. A political system where all ruling parties follow the same political platform defeats the purpose of having individual parties. We ask that the Supporters of Science in Design refrain from any further attempts to silence Malivia Left and our fellow left-leaning parties, as we too have the right to voice our opinion, regardless of whether we are representing the majority or minorities and regardless of the amount of seats we currently hold. Minority groups need to be heard and that is why parties like Malivia Left are here. |

Message | The Social Democrats would like to protest at the disdainful and derogatory use of the name 'leftists' to describe opposition parties as it shows a lack of respect for the democratic process under which this nation operates. |
Date | 12:51:26, June 04, 2008 CET | From | National Anti-Communist Front | To | Debating the Moral Decency Act |
Message | SSD is simply defending the our nation's history, people, and morals. The SSD, The NACF, and UM all have diverse platforms that allow both the majority and minority to voice their opinions through the parties. The termed leftist has come to be know as derogatory because of what has been done in its name. |
Date | 13:51:10, June 04, 2008 CET | From | National Labor Party | To | Debating the Moral Decency Act |
Message | The SSD, NACF and UM are obviously not allowing the voice of minorites to be heard, when they are outlawing things such as gay rights. Public opinion within Malivia shows that the population want more permissive rights, and that they are seeking a more secular society, as oppose to the religious and restrictive ideologies of the NACF. Parties such as Malivia Left, the Social Democrat Party, and the Socialist Workers' Party of Malivia have a right to stand up for the rights of minority groups who are not being treated appropriately. Whilst we at Malivia Left understand that Malivia has a history and religion of its own, we also understand that the purpose of opposition parties to be just that. An opposition. We understand that we can't forever look back at history, but we need to look forward to the future of Malivia. We are presenting our view to the public on the future of Malivia, and we object to parties such as the SSD insisting we hold back on our opinions just because it is differing to theirs. |

Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
