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.

Also, 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?

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

Quote from: Françal I. Lux on September 30, 2026, 05:32:10 PMI'd like it to have some guardrails though with provisions to ensure transparency and fairness.

Francal, thank you. This is a very good point and I would welcome collaboration on developing those guidelines. I think this kind of program would help build the kind of connection between citizen and government that other efforts like some parts of the TalossaWare succeed in.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on September 29, 2026, 11:10:13 PM@Françal I. Lux Finance Minister, what do you think of this idea? I have made a couple of posts on the matter because I think the Kingdom being able to respond in some official way, even if it is small, would be a meaningful aspect of Talossan citizenship. I acknowledge a lack of legislation does not prohibit it from happening but legislative endorsement would not be a bad thing.

-------

Whereas, the Finance Minister is authorized by El Lex D.2.8.8. "to create, manage, and promote a voluntary fundraising campaign to the citizens of Talossa and other interested parties each year," and

Whereas, recent news of Talossans experiencing illness or grief ignites a desire for official acts of solidarity and kindness by their government, and

Whereas, such official acts of solidarity and kindness while small and limited can be a meaningful contribution to the good and welfare of Talossa's citizens.

Therefore, be it resolved, by the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa that the Finance Ministry is encouraged to promote a voluntary fundraising campaign for the purpose of establishing a Good & Welfare fund for Talossans encountering hardship, grief, or illness, and

Be it further resolved, that before the commencement of such campaign, the Finance Ministry develop guidelines defining hardship, grief, or illness for the purposes of accessing the fund and procedures for disbursement.

Uréu q'estadra så,
Breneir Tzaracomprada (MC-BREN)

I like the idea in principle.

I'd like it to have some guardrails though with provisions to ensure transparency and fairness.
