Dekks for the Central Committee

Comrades, as you may already know I am running to be one of the 7 members of the first NSLeft Central Committee. I feel that to be chosen to take up such a historic responsibility you all should know who I am and what I think is the best way for our reformed alliance to move into the future.

I am mainly known from the Democratic Socialist Assembly, where I have been a member of the government for more than a year and have recently been elected to a second term as it’s President and World Assembly Delegate, I am also a Double Citizen in TLA (the first one actually), A resident in TCB and a resident of TI. In NSLeft itself I have been actively trying to bring activity through concededly yet unsuccessful measures like the planning of a multi-regional space RP, have been one of the comrades who participated in making the new solidarity pact (many of my colleagues however deserve much more credit for this.) and getting it passed, and am as of now a volunteer in both the editorial and the gameplay committees.

The reason why I have chosen to run for the CC is because we can’t underestimate the influence the first administration of the alliance will have for the rest of its existence. We will need to do a good job of defining what NSLeft will be and how it should function, we need to make sure that NSLeft is going to be an active, flexible and important institution which improves the playing experience of every comrade member, and I would like to share some of my ideas on how to make this happen.

NSLeft and its Member Regions

In the Central Committee I will push for a strong well-connected relationship between the alliance and the member regions, and for good relations between the member regions as well.

- I would encourage and aid the administrations of NSLeft member regions to promote the alliance’s forum and discord server, foster the activity of their residents and otherwise integrate their region with the NSLeft (To the extend the regions find it appropriate for themselves.)

- I would work towards the NSLeft being able to lessen the administrative burden and increase the effectiveness of tasks the regional governments traditionally perform, so that regions could choose to utilize our help. (For example: instead of having an ambassador for every NSLeft embassy separately, each region would have one ambassador for all their NSLeft embassies and diplomacy would be conducted on the NSLeft server should the region so choose.)

The Gameplay Committee, Regional Committee and the Editorial Committee

I am happy to see that as of late there is a lot of interest in the alliance and the Central Committee for which there are 15 candidates. However the NSLeft is more than just the Central Committee and the Gameplay, Regional and Editorial Committees are equally as needed to make sure our reforms are executed well. A good relationship between all Committees should be kept.

- We should promote volunteers in the Gameplay and Editorial Committees through regular (but not excessive) announcements promoting these committees, and passively through the continued work of both these Committees.

- I would be aware of the relations and communications between all the Committees, and make sure that these go well.

NSLeft Culture

With the combined talent and numbers of all our comrades fostering our culture would be an ideal way for the alliance to improve the experiences of our members. Through closely cooperating with the Regional Committee NSLeft would be able to organize a varied assortment of events. To achieve this I would like to see:

- Artistic contests held on the NSLeft forum, such as visual design contests (free theme, flags and countryballs, leftist posters, etc.), writing contests (poetry, short stories, etc.) and perhaps even music.

- A continued effort from the alliance to develop the roleplay in the member regions, and from there on attempt to develop its own inter-regional roleplay.

- If the efforts considering culture from the Central Committee prove successful, creating an amendment to the solidarity pact creating a Culture Committee, in which volunteers and their chosen director would coördinate culture events.

NSLeft on the world stage

The NSLeft is a beacon of leftism in nationstates, being made up off some of the most prestigious and longest standest regions in NationStates, with one of it’s member regions being ‘The Red Fleet”, the longest standing leftist military in NS with a WA commendation. We should do everything we can to make sure we strengthen our position.

- We should have a good overview on the states of both the left in NS and the big players in NS, and try to establish and grow NSLeft through searching for possible new member regions and/or pact with well known and respectable regions and/or alliances.

- Support the role the NSLeft has against fascists, reactionaries and imperialists by working together with TRF and increasing our presence in the World Assembly.

- Strengthen leftism as a whole in NS (perhaps through a leftist convention similar to UCR con.)
