eh, I'm not all that convinced there's enough good in communism *or* democracy to make a mesh worthwhile. The reason I don't like communism is not because it isn't practical, but for the same reason I don't like democracy - I don't trust the people to do the right thing, or even act in their own best interst. But I'm probably at the fringe of American politics, not really representative of the common thought. I'd rather have a nice philosopher king, tbh. I suppose every Marcus Aurelius is succeeded by a Commodus, though, and that doesn't last very long. If I have to pick a "least worst" government, I'd say Churchill was just wrong, the Republic has historically been much more just and stable than any historical democracy (in ancient Rome and early America, for instance). I think the constitutional republic that existed in the U.S. from 1782 to 1920ish was just about as perfect as is possible in a government run by man, before the progressive coup that corrupted it into a democracy.
I better shut up now before the NSA puts me on right-wing watch group, though.
I'm glad this game has started again, I'll try to pay more attention to the actual game now

Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.
