Aimlessness of the LPP
Konrad Neumann
This will be a short and to the point op ed article based solely on my opinions. I am really shocked and dismayed by the recent LPP behavior. I mean what is this? When you have a Bulgarian lecturing that Germans both online and in real life should embrace WWII militarism and that the evil communist has taken over lecturing about the aimlessness of our country, I think it is safe to say that they have lost it... If you want true aimlessness, look at the LPP.
What does the LPP stands for these days? It often portray themselves as the party of victims and of underdogs. Well I do not recall in any country that "largest" party in a country to be "the underdog." I also do not recall that underdogs goes and try to PTO other top 5 parties. Talk about aimlessness, what does LPP contribute in policy terms other than that we should be militaristic and create empire? It is easy for them to say we want strong armies and an empire but how do you do that? Even if we assume the German community wants that, how would you get that kind of power to create an empire? It seems to be that the LPP is a party of whiners and of no ideas. Just pure aimlessness!!!
LPP members are now breaking traditional congress norms by leaking classified data to the public in hopes to smear our democratically elected government. They complained about the MPP with Poland but this is a classic tactic used since the first days of eRepublik. The point of that tactic is, if enough noob Polish congressman voted yes on it, we could have an MPP with the Poles making ONE/TWO attack on Germany costly since it will cancel their MPP with the Poles. To say that is an aimless move is foolish. While there is an element of luck into this tactic, but it is an legit tactic that if it works, would be really beneficial to eGermany. Instead, the aimless LPP attacks the president in hopes for small petty partisan gains. While they can bash the government, where are their contribution in regards to the Lithuanian NE etc?
It seems to me that the LPP is not interested in proper political discourse. They have become the Fox News of parties in which, to them at least, loud is right. If they can scream as loud as they can, they think they can win support. I do not think it is working. Their bribery for new members is not working as well. Whereas they might have a lot of people now, their membership did decline from 300+ to now 273.
The LPP is a party in crisis. It is a party that lost its way. Their identity is confused. I believe that the party is in a civil war between the moderates like Pecettisyn and Zeeger and that of the radicals like Onrop, Ivanylo, and Lord oS. Sadly, it seems like the radicals are the more vocal ones and their voice is what the eGerman community is hearing. If the LPP is to recover to its former glory, moderates need to secure the party back. If not, they will continue to aimlessly lecture about how communist will make eGermany weak and that the Germans should go back to the days of WWII militarism etc. If that is what the LPP is, it will surely fail and deservingly so.

tl;dr but vote
Wrong.
Why you're always talking about "they"?
What you're talking about are doings of one or two idividuals.
So your statement is just like the rest of this issue, just plain nothing.
Doctorius is right. this month onrop isn't PP and Lord o S isn't Spokesman (or whatever his title was) anymore. they are just individuals now.
It shows where the party is at. Like I said, the LPP is in a time of crisis. It does not matter if they are the PP of LPP etc, even as an individual, their actions reflects the party on the public stage. When their PP does nothing and does not condemn the information leak or to talk down the WWII history crap, this image of LPP regardless is it the party line or that of individuals will be the main discourse. Like I said, the moderates are not loud enough and the radicals hijacks the party.
just plain nothing.
+1
As exptected, no word about the bad method of starting this MPP with an enemy... Very brilliant "tactic", that got us nowhere in the end.
@onrop: well, you win some - you lose some.
I do say that action regardless of results is better than inaction and whining. But that is just me. I favor a president who is pragmatic and bold. So far I am pleased with Maxi's performance. Sadly I cannot say that of his opposition who tries to disqualifies him with low level to now his really substance-less attack which also includes breaking congress norms by leaking classified data to the public. And you wonder why the LPP is suffering from PR problems....
Right, I understand since first time: LPP is bad and bad and bad. Oh almost forgott that LPP has a pact with devil, bla bla bla...
Konrad, I have the right to comment an action, which already took place in eRepublik. Which data did I leak?

you leaked that there is a non-public discussion on the subject - so poles reading your article could have smelled that something is "wrong" and we don't just want the MPP to have the MPP
especially by mentioning something about "we've got pseudo-tactical proposals."
and you disclosed while the MPP-voting was in progresss that not even (all) congress members will get information on what is happening
= making the MPP even more suspicious for the poles
I like it. Nice work
But if they don't speaks for the party, the LPP should think about who gets a place for the congress elections next time
eisenmutter, weißt du eigentlich wovon du redest? Der MPP hat durch meinen Artikel also eine ganz andere Bedeutung für die Polen... alles klar.
Nochmal: zuerst kommt ein Gesetz im Spiel, dann auf Drängen vieler Leute ein informationsloser Thread im nicht-öffentlichen Forum - das ist schon quasi ein Widerspruch in sich. Informtionspolitik, die so auf keinen Fall geht, vor allem nicht für Kongressleute. Das ist ein Vorgang, über den die Öffentlichkeit unterrichtet werden muss.
ich Verstehe nicht wiso ihr euch immer Gegenseitig so Niedermacht
@Dominik, eGer ist halt wie Rl-Ger ; )

du hast gefragt was du ge-leaked hast und das war die antwort drauf. wenn du keine antwort haben willst solltest du die frage nicht stellen
klar ist es immer eine gute idee die öffentlichkeit davon zu unterrichten, dass man grade die Litauen ausspielen will indem man einen Polen-MPP versucht, am besten in deiner zeitung. liest ja eh keiner von den polen in der deutschen presse mit
Doctorius: "Wrong.

Mitgehangen, mitgefangen. Wenn man es über sich bringen kann in einer Partei zu sein in der Onrop und Lord zumindest halbwegs salonfähig sind, dann darf man sich nicht darüber beklagen, wenn die Leute einen (nicht persönlich, sondern wegen Parteimitgliedschaft) nicht mögen. Besonders da die beiden ihre dämliche Meinung so laut rausposaunen, wie es nur geht...
Ban Danna, du bist in ner Partei, die regelmäßig den Staat, also die Spieler beraubt. Wer weiss, vielleicht ist das halt deine Eigenart, weil du auch im RL so drauf bist.
Besonders regelmäßig : D
Ja, wir sind schon schlimme Banditen und trotzdem bin ich lieber bei den Metzen (pardon Metzten) und nicht bei euch, weil ihr noch unausstehlicher seid.
Um im RL klau ich kleinen Kindern ihre Lutscher, so einfach ist das. Ohne bisschen RL-Beleidigungen gehts bei dir wohl nicht, was? Wenn du was besseres zu bieten hast kannste dich gerne melden.
maybe you accuse others in being into crisis to hide your own crisis in OMG , Commie party and others that are in alliance ? Yes i may be real life Bulgarian but does that matter ? i fought for egermany like everybody else or maybe that doesn't mean nothing ? Some are more egermans than others ? And what militarism you are jabbering about ?I just told you to look at ePoland , eRussia without WW II militarism they progress while we are nowhere at all just look at the map .
