Interested to hear reasons why our friends in the Progressive Alliance are voting against the concept of "no more copy-paste voting" and "no more seeing your friends vote and voting the same way".

After the Seneschal's recent vote, I posted the following notes on my own votes:

QuoteAlso, why are people still voting against legislation due to my sponsorship? I have apologized to Luc, refrained from repeated instances of what was problematic, and have been gracious with others. What is the current purpose of the social boycott?

What is the new purpose (or adapted old purpose) of this continuing social boycott? Was my second apology viewed as insincere? Have I offended additional people? Or is it being done until I leave?

As to 63RZ01, "Sense of the Ziu: No More Loyalty Parades," I vote non.
As to 63RZ02, "Sense of the Ziu: In Support of Decoloniality," I vote aus, due to the sponsor.
As to 63RZ03, "Sense of the Ziu: When Agents Go Rogue," I vote aus, due to the sponsor.
As to 63RZ04, "Sense of the Ziu: Climate Consequences," I vote aus, due to the sponsor.

Talossa is not a project of escapist fantasy so contemporary politics are a part of its existence. We can't ignore the world and its issues and should debate the issues of the day and take principled stands as a part of our right and responsibility within the family of peoples and nations.

VoC: Non

Our Premieir, @Carlüs Éovart Vilaçafat, has not logged into Witt since April. Perhaps our senator, @Béneditsch Ardpresteir would be willing to open the Cabana and assist in electing a new Premieir.

There are plenty of opportunities for anyone who wants to do so, to propagandize, pontificate, and argue about climate change, AI, or whatever.  But it seems to me that doing so in Talossa, and particularly in the Ziu, is to import the highly divisive and contentious nature of contemporary politics into our little nation.  Which I don't like, and I would guess is repellant to many visitors and potential citizens, and I'd rather not rehash partisan debates and assertions here.  So ...

63RZ01 -- Non
63RZ02 -- Non
63RZ03 -- Non
63RZ04 -- Non
