Changeup Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 @Noctis Anarch Caelum Do you understand that you are the leader of a 3-member micro that's currently getting curbstomped?

Fear is what they want to use to control you & the “allies” afraid to break off without many friends on the other side; as well neutrals who know they’re screwed if they do nothing. Although I don’t believe fear strong to control people long term, as long as that isn’t the new group think.

What you're describing is a state of nature, and everyone would be only as free as they can effectively subjugate. Any actions that wouldn't be directly and efficiently used to claim as much power as possible would be exploited by rivals, who would then subjugate the 'free' actor, as they are 'free' to do. If they didn't, they'd lose out to their other rivals, and be subjugated themselves as their rivals are 'free' to, and so on. Tl;dr: nobody would be free to do shit other than reduce/remove the freedom of everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most can agree what constitutes a violation of the Non Aggression Principle, there could be some volunteer militia bound by the NAP; which could stomp out any other organizations who become to abusive & forcing people in violation of the NAP. Debatable whether it could even be considered government if it’s just helping & not stealing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think that Non-aggression principles exist in a meaningful way, then you're just not paying attention. What possible reason is there for a hegemonist not to volunteer for the militia and then proceed to subdue it, turning it into his weapon of dictatorial power?

Applying it in-game, would mean people can act outside where the treaty web might place them, as a potential ally in bringing down a potential threat from within as it becomes overly cancerous.
