Proposal: Information is Important, Control of Information Moreso
The relevant paperwork is sorted. Await the General’s decision as to who will inform you about why and how we should all Fight the Good Fight.
Reporting, Devenger.
(Timed out after 48 hours, passed 14-1. 11 (Quorum) Up Arrow icons, so Devenger gets to increase their AP by 1.)

Informing the People has made this nation the great utopia it is today, where you can live safe knowing that citizens can do nothing… to remove you of your freedoms… without being found and punished. The good of spreading Important Information should also enter the ranks of the military, in order to make our Soldiers better informed individuals who can perform their duty to the best of their ability, and beyond. I see that some of those around me are not always as Loyal as they could be; I believe that must just be a lack of information telling them about the great progress being made but our economy and our other, less well-known military operations. We shall be Victorious, with the Truth on our side!
Add the following text to Rule 2.8 Positions:
* Propaganda Officer: The General may, as a daily action, remove the Propaganda Officer position from all Soldiers that have it as their Position, and set the Position of another Soldier to Propaganda Officer. The Propaganda Officer may make Important Information posts as described in the sub-rule ‘Important Information Posts’.
Create a sub-rule ‘Important Information Posts’ to Rule 2.8 Positions with the following text:
An Important Information post is a Story Post with [Important Information] in its title. Only the Propaganda Officer may make an Important Information post, and only as a weekly action. An Important Information post shall attempt to persuade Soldiers about the greatness of their Nation, the Party, the General and High Command’s ingenuity.
Within 48 hours of the Important Information post being posted, Soldiers may post one comment to the Important Information Post containing a Voting Icon. The Soldier’s Opinion is the Voting Icon they use. If a Soldier uses more than one Voting Icon in comments on an Important Information post, their Opinion is the last voting icon they use. If a Soldier’s Opinion is FOR, that Soldier shall increase their Loyalty by 5. If a Soldier’s opinion is AGAINST, that Soldier shall decrease their Loyalty by 5.
After 48 hours and within 72 hours of the Important Information post being posted, the Soldier who made the Important Information post shall increase their Loyalty by the number of FOR Opinions their post received, and leave a comment to the post containing ‘Your feedback was welcome’. If after 72 hours of the Important Information post being posted this comment has not been made, the Soldier who made the Important Information post shall decrease their Loyalty by 10, and remove their Position if it is Propaganda Officer.
If half of all counted votes on this Proposal contain the phrase ‘Let the idiot sing’, Devenger’s Position becomes Propaganda Officer.
There’s so much good news to spread!
Because SPARTAAAAAAAAAAA
Because I do not want Devenger to be Propaganda Officer. To get my vote, it is usually necessary that I find all possible outcomes of a Proposal to be better than the status quo.
