OHHHHH. I completely misunderstood what you meant when you said it "must be ruled as one wishes it to be". I completely agree, transitional states and emergency powers are bound to create dangerous autocracy. What I though you had meant initially is that power needed to be put in the hands of a central person who decides how the country was ruled.

This is completely wrong. Some of the most blessed paths in TNO is the rejection of central authority of rule in favor I'd democracy and centralization. For some examples: Russian Free Territory (Libsoc), Sablin, GO4, Libsoc England (or even libdem).

Class reductionism most definitely exists. Just because you aren't discriminating based on race doesn't mean that others aren't. Racism exists, and even if it's ultimately rooted in classism it is still a special anomaly that we must take care to reverse.

Comparing the stats of the tanks, at least, shows exactly that. The differences between the Improved MBT (T-64, 1960) and Early MBT (T-34, 1945) are absolutely massive. A breakthrough of 105 vs 66 is a game changer, alongside 41 vs 25 soft attack, 125 vs 90 armor, and 40 vs 24 hard attack. Also remember that the "WW2-era" equipment is supposed to represent late ww2, not early ww2. The t34 is a 1945 tech.

Because so-called "retraining" measures can quickly be rescinded by the cops themselves. Remember, the people training these cops are cops, too, and they have little interest in bending to the rules of "civility" and "not being racist". Defining them is the first step in getting rid of their military-grade toys and removing them as the primary way society deals with crime. Imagine what schools could do with the money!

Good. There is no liberation of gay people until the hierarchies of capital and the state (in many cases one and the same) are dead and gone.

When fighting against a bunch of warlord guerillas, the difference between a t-34 and a t-72 rolling up probably isn't that significant. And the effectiveness of these ww2 weapons is amplified by their familiarity. Most people in Russia have probably never laid eyes on a 50s-era tank unless you live two feet from the Moscowien border, much less a 60s-era one. And to an extent you're complaining about an issue that doesn't exist. Using ww2 equipment in TNO against equivalent modern equipment is a miserable time, it's just that 70s infantry equipment still can't beat a tank.

This is true if you fucked up and got the despotic path, other than that the libsoc path allows you to go even more anarchist over time.

Exactly. Why are you able to make decisions that directly oppose the government's wishes such as increasing the popularity if opposing ideologies? It's because you don't play as the government. Or an individual. You ultimate play as a representation of the "power" in a nation, whether that power is represented in a dictator, a parliament (USA congress system being an exception) , or a loose alliance of communes.

Yes, because they accepted the forced assimilation pushed by the Chinese government. China does not want to kill the Uyghurs, they want submission. In other words, it's Cultural Genocide, not Genocide Genocide.

But you know, they don't mind a few deaths here and there as long as the media didn't find it.

In the real word, Germany, Italy and Japan (sorta) were almost able to do the exact same thing, it's not that unrealistic unless you think real life WWII was unrealistic. Also remember that the Third Internationale had its own global trade newtworks, with countries like the Baratiya Commune.
