Talossa has a long tradition in journalism and political debates. Today, Propaganda office posts a link for everyone to read the December issue of La Tascaragnhă Nouă, voice of the main opposition party.

Maybe we could hold off on this vote until we have a chance to chat with him? Another phone call to invite him to join us here, maybe. Would that be okay?

The same reason that we get along is what applies here: I want everyone to feel safe and welcome, as long as they're not going after anyone, and that includes both you and him and people who might very reasonably wonder if he still has the same views as before. You might not be aware of this, but he was rather hateful and went to some lengths to do things like deadname some of our citizens specifically to offend them.

That was a long time ago, though, so there's every possibility that he's just completely changed in that respect. A lot of folks have grown in the subsequent years.

I'm surprised you're the only other person in the Kingdom that resonates with me! Surely "belonging for the sake of belonging" wouldn't ruffle anyone's feathers, right? Not when it's our founder, apparently! 🙄

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN-GC on Today at 12:03:00 AMGiven that Talossa's transgender community is now large and prominent in public life, perhaps someone should ask Ben Madison whether he still holds to the absolute contempt he expressed for that community in previous decades.

I don't think he would nowadays given that he's part of the Henryite church.

*cough* Anglicans *cough*

There are more than enough transphobic Anglicans out there. The LGBT community doesn't call the UK "TERF Island" for nothing.

I called them Henryites because of their theology, NOT because of transgenderism!!!

What?

I'm explaining to you that Ben's conversion to the Anglican Church in no way means that he is therefore accepting of trans people now, which is what your message seemed to suggest.

Also, "transgenderism" seems like a bad choice of words.

Apologies about the "ism" word.

After the much-needed enlightenment from the ex-Seneschal about KR1's views, this in NO WAY influences my motives to bring him back. My only reasons are for el Glheþ (etymological research), and due to the fact that he founded this beautiful land that we call home.

That's it.

Further, in the future I'd like to moot a bill wherein former Rulers are automatically granted a Dukedom.

Of course! And did you see that I requested arms?
