Alzsabo, make a country into a authoritarian state in Democracy 4.

I saw links and thought "Spambot" ngl

Maybe little bit spice here turn the german into autoritarian state, turn great britain into communist, turn italy into religious state so on you get the idea

no

sounds about right for Australia. They will end up as a Chinese protectorate anyways.

I'LL TAKE IT!!

Honestly any countries or play throughs from democracy 4 would be cool

You should do Neo-feudal UK next

Turn South Korea into a second "Best Korea"

I’d take any more democracy 4, love these videos

Make america great again by making them facist or nationalist

Become Trees

quite realistic

Every single time I end up doing that anyway so how ?

@@sephikong8323 I haven't tried in 4, don't have it yet.

Patriots, conservativs ecologists and socialists and trade unionists (look up corporatism for the last two) are my typical playthrough with minor exceptions

The realism hurts.

The Liberal Democrats, oh no. Please no.

hahahaha.... wait

The coal mining children joke hits a bit harder now doesnt it

The fact the libdems were what he played... while calling Labor commies... it hurts...

It is

Not for an improvement of barely over 3%, 5% maybe but definitely not less than that haha

It do be right tho

@@uplayxer6421 It definitely is.

Ironic that we don't even have that outside of like one state though lmao

@@soogymoogi I mean, I guess having to choose between a health care plan, expensive medication, or doing nothing is *sort of* a right to die, i say, as i look at the combined prices of all my prescriptions without insurance

@@sofiaciel7599 I'm with you there, the only reason I'm functional is ironically because I'm bad enough even with my meds to be on disability so I can pay for my meds through medicare...

You can also make food prices extremely low with government programs in this game (which is accurate to what countries do in real life). In both my games, in which I played i super left wing, food was really cheap as well. I’m a farmer from the rural south, and I love me some government subsidies because it keeps food cheap without fucking the soil up.

@@democracydignityhumanrights Have you not been paying attention to the price of food lately? Farming subsidizes do nothing when the state disrupts supply chains and destroying your purchasing power. Anything can be made cheaper with tac payer money lol. The market decreases prices without the need for us TO PAY FOR IT.

@@donald347 the prices would be even higher right now without farm subsidies, and they also help preserve the soil. This is standard agricultural practice in most major countries for a reason.

@@donald347 supply chains being disrupted by the pandemic is hardly the fault of the government, they would’ve been disrupted anyway even if the government had done nothing at all, a bunch of people getting sick means things don’t work how they should because they can’t do their jobs while sick, even more people would have got sick without the lockdowns during the worst periods, lockdowns that not everywhere did, they didn’t do lockdowns where I live and it was still miserable and a ton of people got sick, plenty of people here were unable to go to work simply because they were sick, and even when they did do lockdowns in other places essential services kept running. Doing nothing is not a solution to a problem like this, unless you want the healthcare system to totally collapse on top of having the supply chain issues. Part of the problem with supply chains too is that your god the market likes cheap over seas labor, it’s not the government’s fault they would rather set up shop in developing authoritarian regimes where people get payed nothing, that’s the fault of greedy men who want more money themselves and don’t care about their country and countrymen or the well-being of people generally. A government that does nothing is a failed state that has abdicated its responsibility the people and societal stability. This ideology of “government does stuff = bad” is the most idiotic thing to come out of western philosophy and is not reflective of reality, it’s just a lame excuse to not fund infrastructure or important programs and to abdicate all social responsibility to large corporations, this doesn’t mean they abdicate power though, they never do and no government ever will, it just means that instead of that power being used to develop society, it’s used to protect corporations and the status quo.

@@democracydignityhumanrights makes you wonder if the thing you grow would exist without subsidies

I was thinking either this or a return to absolute monarchy haha, cheers!

Just wait until Patel succeeds Boris and it will be IRL

The coal must flow...

As the game is called democracy, all playable government forms are limited to this spectrum. Communism, Anarchism, Monarchism, Fascism etc are more head-canon than actually implemented I to the game. You can reach 0 on the abstract technology bar tho as well as cut all policies that relate to the modern world. You'll be left with very few, but it's technically possible.

@@dubiusindex8216 it would be cool to have the possibility to become a dictatorship or an oligarchy, i think the base of the game would work anyway with few adjustments

Unga Bunga

@@alessiobenvenuto5159 Wouldn't that break the *entire* games premise when you remove the struggle of actually implementing stuff? A dictator can be ousted after public outrage, but until that he can implement what ever he wants with no opposition. As fast as he wants. And afaik the entire point of the game is doing change despite having... you know... an opposition?

@@gandalf_thegrey well, there is no opposition in the game for implementing and changing laws, you just have to worry about elections. If you are a dictatorship, the game could raise the danger of terrorist groups instead, giving you always a challenge to look up to

truly a schrödinger success story

@@AlzaboHD can you do a succesfull christian socialist run on south korea

@@AlzaboHD love your content man

Kinda proves that libertarianism would work

@@elhombrenft4348 reduced lifespan

Ayn Rand wasn’t an AnCap, she was critical of anarchists and libertarians. AnCaps are Rothbard and Hoppe

Of course, because Atlas Shrugged is such an awful book that just makes people awful. Honestly, I can't think of anything worse than rejecting coercion, right?

Oh and just for the record, Rand wasn't a libertarian - she hated Libertarians. She called us "right wing hippies" so, this doesn't even apply lol

@Sam Wallace For a while now I ask myself if there is actually still a communist following anywhere. Russia is an Oligarchy, China is an authoritarian dictatorship and only commie by name (Worlds biggest Trade Empire ≠ Communist), Cuba is basically just vibing Online discourse is *always* a meme. There is no actual communist discourse anywhere. Only praising the Soviet anthem and making fun of wide mustache man I mean... good for the world! But still curious.

This quote gets posted a lot by people who haven't read Atlas Shrugged lmao

oh man, you triggered the libs

I've been thinking about doing this as England and bringing back the absolute monarchy lol

​@@AlzaboHDDO IT.

Is this completely random or is there a historical/religious basis for it?

A bit less 'extreme' challenge would be restoring the Frankish Empire, seeing as the Dutch language is a descendant of Frankish.

agreed but they prolly just either killed them with the overbearing private police force or just threw them in their abundant amounts of private prison hell holes

The game is so heavily biased

I mean presumably more cops = less crime

I mean if it's not regulated, punishments can be as inhumane as the prison owners want them to be, so the crime rate drops because the criminals fear being tortured or straight up killed if they get caught. Also the organized crime stayed, the biker gangs were still around at the end, because the owners of police and prisons are probably corrupt as hell. So a reduced amount of small crime makes sense, even if it's a terrible solution to the problem

@@jakobmdch3160 Punishment has never stopped criminals.

That is no irony.

Personally I would prefer to live in a cyberpunk world.

Based beyond belief

But your chances of being enslaved by that king in a neo-feudalist hellscape are almost unavoidable.

Welcome to Ancapystalia, where your worth as a man, is the worth that you bring. Minarchist!

Why weep or slumber, Australia? Land of sand and heat! With desert and sand and pain for all All belongs to you! Every man a king, every man a king!

@thelastgamer Anti-imigration is not racism.

@@igorkreszow8983 No, but it's statism. It's not anarcho-capitalism.

@@happymolecule8894 communities can come toghether to decide who can live among them. I see this as a right. That's my take on anarchism.

Don't you basically have to lean right to get anything through the senate over there?

@@catmonarchist8920 both labor and the liberals (our conservatives) are centre right The uap and phon are far right. The greens are either neo lib or left depending.

They are enemies of the free market - all parties are.

We actually have a low crime rate. Also majority of people do not decende from convicts. I am very confused by this games statistics for Australia

What are you talking about?

Australia is doing the opposite

not really, things are getting more authoritarian not anarchy.

No

The time has come to say fair's fair!

By anarchist especially the lib left anarchist. Community policing means guns for everyone

Yes

Yeah it’s a very small fine though.

yeah, but you don't have to 'vote' you just have to show up and then you can do whatever you want with the slip

Australia has incredible healthcare, the only country that manages cancer cases correctly.

At least it’s somewhat more voluntary

@@jacobderamo9187 Giving you the choice between voluntarily becoming my wage slave or voluntarily living on the streets. If you, for whatever reason, can't work anymore and are not viewed as an economically productive piece of capital for someone else, good luck choosing something else. It's the illusion of choice.

Which society doesn't end in a hierarchy? Oh, stop, the hierarchy in some form exists anywhere from the beginning. And at least capitalism gives some choices to most people.

@@YungMoomin If you think that this is a bad choice you don't know what is the alternative. At least you are not assigned to your workplace under a threat of prison and possibly even arrested and executed or sent into concentration camp for not being productive enough (yeah, this stuff also happened, I even found official documents about it from USSR). And yes, you can always head to the region where houses have a price close to 0 and survive on subsistence farming. The reason people choose to be "wage slaves" is their desire for the luxuries modern civilization produces which obviously is not a motivation for anything connected with slavery.
