Socialists, even though I really don't like some of their policies I don't think I can handle voting for moderates when we have basically zero reforms

I just realised that in a lot of ways (especially politically) Al-Andalus is like OTL Belgium, only the game hasn't been spamming strikes at us caused by our horrible voting system and massive exploitation of what I imagine would be quite a radicalised industrial working class.

Crazycryodude posted:Nah I paid pretty good attention to how we finally have railroads more modern than the 1860's and rapidly progressed to being only about 35 years behind the rest of the world instead of 80 in terms of social and political development. our reforms are still shockingly awful but they're less awful now

Patter Song posted:The Italy comparison works quite well. Victor Emmanuel III was an effective symbol for the nation early on in fascist Italy, but as the years went on, he basically fell into a golden-cage house arrest and barely ever left the palace except to be photographed with Mussolini occasionally. King was still on the throne, but was completely irrelevant. It's almost like everyone who thought that they could co-opt fascists of all shades or compromise with them was completely loving wrong, what a novel concept

There could well be some good German comrades who join the fight against fascism, the German government is going to look on in horror and hope that the fascists win

Crazycryodude posted:The more I think about it the more I like the idea of trying to ally with New England. It'll get the critical resources and manpower of North America united on our side in opposition to the fascists. Yes they're capitalist dogs but they do represent the most progressive element of the bourgeoisie and are an acceptable temporary ally against their more reactionary cousins. Ideologically impure but it's always nice when your enemy fights each other, approved.

In retrospect, in a lovely hell world with even fewer states being even nominally democratic it's not exactly surprising that the fascists did better than expected. gently caress you, though, Russia. Without them loving with Austria things could have been totally different and they didn't even do a decent job of slowing down the loving French.

If we could get Benin on side it would be great, they can have literally all of the rest of Africa as far as I'm concerned. The ideology argument kind of went out of the window when New England joined the full fascist world domination team, apparently it doesn't matter as much as it should.
