BOIL FOR HEAD JUSTICE - APRIL 1ST 2024
Making Callista Great Since 2024
This section is satirical
My fellow Callistans, we have travelled far and wide, learning the secrets of the Deep-State in order to combat them, fighting for our glorious state, as true Callistan patriots. We've been to the PM elections, where we sadly lost at the hands of rigging, we lost in the fields of the great roleplay hordes to the hands of great rigging, but we have finally returned to the fields of patriotism once again. Today, my fellow CALLISTANS, we march on the judiciary, to rid it of the plague of the deep-state. We will make reforms for the people, by the people, as we are the true people's party, and we march onwards to secure ourselves for the glory of the Callistsan Nation. We hope to achieve full supremacy in the Callistan government one-day, to rid it of the tyranny of the Callistan deep-state, but for now my fellow Callistans, we are content with running for the judiciary. So, to all loyal patriots to the great Callistan state, we request you to march with us, for the glory of Callista! - Boilanzandia
Normally sections like these prioritize expirence. People like to rant on and on about their achievements, which I don't really like. This opinion is largely biased though, because I am a newcomer to Callistan politics, however that doesn't mean I'm a good pick for HJ. So here's why you should vote for me ig. (PLEASE VOTE FOR ME I NEED CLOUT PLS PLS PLS /j)
I am literally Boil Goodman - This has been factchecked by many people.
I have a lot of expirence within the legal and judicial fields: I have authored legislation, and as a lawyer I was one of the most active when it came to finding loopholes within the Constitution.
I am non-partisan - As my political party states, we believe in Wall-Thought, a concept that means that we will be non-partisan in fields that are clearly meant to be non-partisan. Politics have no room for the Judiciary or Roleplay. As such, I will do my best to remain completely impartial. Partisan loyalties be bygones.
Some parts of the Constitution, as well as some Bills submitted to become laws, have some clarity issues with this. They are extremely vague in some spots. We do not blame the founding fathers of Callista, as they might've not predicted the controversy that laid within, but we do believe that these issues need to be fixed as soon as possible. My experiences as a lawyer for certain clients (cough cough 🎶 We don't talk about Ventura, no, no 🎶/j) have shown me already a large extent of loopholes found within the constitution, ones that people might exploit. As such, as Head Justice, I plan on setting up a committee (apparently people care if its 'bureacratic' or not even though it barely matters anyway), comprising of myself and a few volunteers, including willing members of the goverment to review such a legal infractions (with the exception of the official rules of callista, which are shorter and don't need a committee). We need to make sure that the Constitution, Laws, Rules and the Legal Process, is as clear and concise as possible. This committee will then send a report, detailing all of the loopholes within the legal articles that we've found, and recommendations on how to fix them. This is our goal for Legislative Clarity. Making the Callistan Constitution Great Again, for everyone to enjoy.
A committee will be appointed to review the Constitution, Laws, and Rules This committee will consist of members of the government, including the MoDA and other willing members, and will consist of volunteer citizens. Multiple minds are better than one.
The Committee will go through all the above. They will color any vague parts of the constitution with red, and will put recommendations in parentheses. They will give suggestions on how to fix them.
The report will then go to the regional administration, consisting of all members of the government. They will decide on whether or not to accept said suggestions, and also give advice on certain aspects if they wish.
After all of this, it will finally reach the citizenry. They will be given some time for discussion, in which they will be allowed to comment on it and how it would work. Once this is finished, it will be able to go up to vote, and if a majority of people accept this, revisions will be made for said legal documents.
Now, I wish to talk about precendents for a number of reasons. The first being which they're hard to keep track of. Unlike Laws, they're largely not written down in one place or another, leaving it tricky to determine or remember precedents. As such, I will myself collect a list of precedents from Head Justices myself, in order to keep the legal foundations up to date, as otherwise it would be hard to keep track of precedents set by Head Justices. Of course, what kind of precedents would I wish to set? It would depend on what scenario I set myself in regarding a trial, but it would be generally based on elements regarding punishment length or appeal time regarding individual court cases, or potential vague statements missed by the committee that need defining. These precedents would be aimed at improving the judiciary to make it more efficient, whilst simultaneously making it harder to exploit. In addition, it would also make it much easier for the accused to know the lengths of their punishment, and what they can do to improve said punishment.
What is rehabilitation? In a NationStates scenario such as Callista, Rehabilitation is the belief that people should have second chances. A Head Justice, or the Callistan Cabinet, should look at the actions of a person outside of the region, to see when they should have their appeal date, or whether or not it should be extended. This is neccessary to ensure that Callista be able to decide when a person is ready for appeal. Looking back regarding the Ventura scandal, the appeal date being extended was a neccessary precaution, as it showed that Ventura was not ready to be rehabilitated yet. His actions outside the region showed otherwise, and as such I now somewhat fully support the move to extend the appeal date.
All Verdicts made by me, whether regarding Vetos or Court Cases, or any other decision made by me, will follow a simple format, one that is aimed to be clear, concise, and to include detail, in order to benefit all people with verdicts.
My Verdict - What I have decided upon Ex: I have decided to proclaim this person Guilty/I have decided that this law that has been proposed is unconstitutional.
Explanation as to Why - A clear and detailed format regarding so. Will contain stuff regarding to the Constitution. Ex: This is because the Constitution, according to [sectioname] is not clear and concise/The Constitution clearly states that this person cannot be prosecuted, as it is unconstitutional.
Acknowledgements Towards the Other Argument - What the other side got right, and correcting them if need be. This is useful for encouraging improvement. Ex: While you guys succeeded in telling me [here], you fail to understand that [here]
Precedent - if needed Ex: In the future, you should [precedent]
Set Punishment - what punishment/how much longer they can appeal.
What is Moderate Solidarity? Moderate Solidarity is the concept that some ideas of Solidarity should be accepted, whilst abaonding others in the face of pragmatism. For example, Moderate Solidarity has abanndoned the belief that we should prioritize reaching out to raided regions and accepting refugees, due to the amount of bureacracy that is needed. Although that would be nice for foreign policy related matters, Moderate Solidarity has accepted that this would be a later, idealistic, goal. Instead, Moderate Solidarity prioritizes the fully ban on arbitrary bans unless regarding certain aspects, namely those such as site-wide rule violations, or raiding. It believes in the notion of Amnesty, to forgive those who have shown remorse for their actions. Moderate Solidarity also continues to support the notion of Integration, so that such players that have shown remorse are able to partake in Callistan society, without having to worry about their past actions haunting them. However, Moderate Solidarity has abandonned the concept of Refuge. If people from raided regions wish to come to our region, then they should, provided that Callista see their history first, but Modereate Solidarity has abandonned the idea that Callista needs to reach out to them first.
this is definetely not in retaliation for rome's criticism pls believe me /j
"A recall referendum is held after the Head Justice / Jury votes to impeach. If Callista's citizens vote in favor, the officer is impeached and removed from office. If they vote against, the suspension is reduced to a temporary suspension. By reintroducing recall referendums, we can make impeachment more democratic rather than putting power in the hands of one group or person."
So are impeachments based on popularity now? If a Regional Officer is impeached, they can just rely on their popularity to stay in the job, even if what they do is extremely controversial? How can we make sure this isn't just an excuse for politicians to stay in the job no matter what (help i am paranoid i need copium). While I appreciate the motive, I feel like the judiciary should be impartial if neccessary. We could simply have a recall refferendum when people disagree with the HJ's position, and then the Tsar can decide.
Isn't this basically what I suggested in different words? "Ideally, an informal team committee consisting of the Minister of Domestic Affairs, Head Justice, Prime Minister, the Lieutenant Prime Minister, and maybe other citizen volunteers, would analyze laws, write suggestions on how to improve these laws, and then repeal and replace or edit these laws accordingly." This is basically just what I suggested, and yet your criticizing me for suggesting it. "However, reviewing rules, laws, and the constitution will only take some time, meaning the committee would be disbanded. Additionally, only a few active people in Callista have extensive knowledge of laws, rules, and the Constitution. Arisyan and the H Corporation, who've written most of our laws and reformed our rules multiple times, Baloo Kingdom, for his extensive time spent with the region, myself, and Boilanzandia. 4/5 people in a hypothetical committee are already in the government, proving a committee is absolute. I don't want to exclude Boilanzandia if I'm elected, but is a committee necessary?". Volunteer citizens could include anyone, including those within goverment. In addition, whose to say that other citizens may also have things to contribute? Is it worth it to exclude other people? Oh look, you already say it. Now, I'm not saying this is a bad idea, I'm just upset with the criticism part, since you essentially just say the same exact thing as me.
"I think I'm the best person to help, partially because I helped write those dispatches originally. I can update the banner, links, images, formatting, and more. I'll probably work on this even if I don't get elected, but I want to be completely honest." Honestly? Anyone can help with this. "I pledge that I will be the best person to help for the job." There, I said it. Do you believe me? Of course not, because everyone could help. We could even get citizen feedback from people who also wish to help, thereby increasing citizen involvement within the goverment, though I doubt that'd be really neccessary. My main issue with this is that it seems a bit out of place and uneccessary. Why do you have to mention this when you're running for HJ. Technically, even if you're not elected, you can still help. So why put it here?
"The Minister of Domestic Affairs needs to do more to increase regional activity. While the MoDA does work on legislation, court proceedings, and regulating the RMB, they're not increasing regional activity when they easily could. I promise to appoint a Minister of Domestic Affairs who will hold frequent fun polls, handle regional and interregional events, and ask fun questions on our regional message board. We don't need to write a law or amendment to do this, we have to make sure we're appointing the best person to the job." Anyone could do this really, but it would be hard to find the best person for the job. As far as I'm aware, we haven't found much people who are good at holding interractive regional polls, regional and irregional events, besides maybe in the early days with the whole card events, which (from the last election season as I have learned), many people "don't really care about". And besides, how would these interregional events work? Are there any specifications? I'm just going to list some ideas; interregional roleplay, interregional card giveaway, polls or questions of the day regarding people's opinions on certain topics (though not political since that can get out of hand). The dispatch doesn't discuss what kind of events that the MoDA should do.
You spelled experience wrong btw i fixed it
"When the government wants to redo all the dispatches, create alliances, and review passed legislation, they will find my knowledge of our Constitution and the Tsardom helpful. When you reelect Rome, you're reelecting experience." GUYS THE DEEP-STATE DOESN'T THINK I'M EXPIRENCED??!!?!?!?!?!!?! no but seriously I find myself expirenced enough for the position. i was the first person to write criticism regarding the constitutional dispatch, and so far the only person to write criticism about every single bill passed. I've also handled multiple lawsuits, and found multiple exploitable loopholes in certain bills that could be dangerous if left unchecked. So yeah, I'm pretty expirenced. This is just me coping by the way /j
Alright, same thing with solidarity. Just because you're not affiliated with a political party, doesn't mean you still have political affiliations. Naturally, you are an elected leader, thereby automatically making you a political leader, even if you are nonpartisan. In addition, given by the fact that you have just recently run with Baloo, you naturally have closer political affiliations with the Baloominati. You are still accountable to political parties, no matter what. In HJ elections, who's to say that a party can't just endorse you? Will you refuse the endorsement if that happens? (also will you represent the USA?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!)
e (no issue with this part)
as stated in the independence part, neither are you completely impartial.
as stated in the legislative review part, you basically say the exact same thing as me, but in different words. and yes, the committee will probably be disbanded after the thing, but you said the exact same thing as me and proposed the same exact thing :/
rules don't need committees. (though i checked my latest revision and it only said constitution and legal practices, not rules. STOP TAMPERING WITH MY QUOTES!!11! /j).
"This isn't as big of a deal as Boilanzandia is making it out to be. First, precedents are written down, as every Callistan court case is in the RMB. Would it take a few hours to compile every verdict in Callistan history? Sure, but it's not impossible." it's gonna take a long time though. also how am i or anyone else supposed to just look through the rmb and find the precedents. do all of them share a simple keyword?
"This part of the campaign feels like fluff. Boil, in a nutshell, defines what a precedent is. In paraphrasing here, Boil says his precedents will be based on the scenario, covering statements missed by the constitution, making the Judiciary more efficient and harder to exploit. This is a definition of legal precedence, or at least how anyone can set precedence." Thats the point. Its supposed to be an example of a precedent (i forgor about this section)
here's your clarification; with more complicated crimes, precedents can help solve how long punishments will be for said crimes. as for how to improve from punishments, precedents can help also by allowing for the accused to shorten their appeal time if they show themselves to be.
""Explanation as to Why - A clear and detailed format regarding so. Will contain stuff regarding to the Constitution. Ex: This is because the Constitution, according to [sectioname] is not clear and concise/The Constitution clearly states that this person cannot be prosecuted, as it is unconstitutional." yeah i forgor you don't have to get mad at me :(
why am I doing this
this is satire btw in case you didn't notice
For our land, you've come to be,
Yet darkness shadows your sunrise,
Coming to catch you and make you cry.
The nation falls, the deep-state wakes,
The sound of falling makes you break,
Yet you can call, for it is true
The Liberation has come to save you too.
Our freedom fighters coming to save,
Letting you know it's safe to play,
For the Deep-State will finally fall,
And celebration will come for all.
Sure it might be hard, and tough on the strong,
and yet we know, as we sing this song,
The Liberation has come to help,
And the Deep-State will cry and yelp.
added a cringe 'why you should vote for me section'
i personally hate it but a lot of people add it soz
"however that doesn't mean you should vote for me" alright well it's settled/j
how does yours have 81 reads but mine only has 21
it'd be suprising to learn how trump's face can attract a lot of people
that's called marketing
will add one more section, possibly to replace the 'rights of defendants' section
You're forgetting about raiding
Official Baloominati Campaign Dispatch OUT NOW:
They said it would never happen…
Hey there guys, it's me, Baloo Kingdom. I’ve always said since stepping back from Callistan politics in October of last year that I would one day return. That day is today. The Baloominati would like to formally put forward everybody’s favorite Baloo Kingdom for the seat of Prime Minister this April 1st. I’m sure you’re all at the edge of your seat to find out who’s running with me this time around (unless you’ve looked at the banner, I guess), so I suppose there’s no more beating around the bush. Presenting…but wait, a message from our sponsors!
Vote for Big Guys, Vote for Stability, Vote for Baloo Kingdom and [REDACTED]
2.) C’mon Baloo, I’m Blind and Can’t See the Banner, Who is Going to be Running With You?
Presenting...Plus Nova Imperii (Rome)! While it’s true that the founder of the Tsarist Party and Baloominati have had their differences in the past, the Baloominati has never been one to step away from trying a new approach to regional politics. This all came about like two days ago when I randomly asked Rome, “Hey, wanna do an “old guard” faction for the PM Elections?”. Somewhat obviously now, he said yes. And so, that’s how this pair came to be, and why we decided to gang up on all the rest of you. Now, to get into what exactly our platform is…but wait, another message for our sponsors!

3.) Experience = Greatness = Free Ponies For All
Even now, Rome and I have some policy disagreements. For example, I’m pro-IOC, and Rome is typically anti-IOC, I like to focus on the WA, but Rome, not as much. But don’t let our differences dissuade your vote, dear citizen. This only means more centrism and representation in government. Not to mention, it’s the experience that counts. And Rome and I (being a duo of the first Prime Minister and the longest-serving Prime Minister), definitely have the most experience in our respective positions out of anyone here in Callista. Rome will be voicing some of his opinions on the PPC platform below. And now, yet another word from our sponsors.
Who Cares if We’re the Status Quo! Le Opposition Has Got to Go!
4.) OK, But Like, What’s Actually Your Platform?
Didn’t I just tell you? This campaign is meant to be a cooperative effort between two of the most experienced people in Callistan politics. The point of the campaign is to best represent the most people through the government and its actions as possible. What better way to get this done than by having (almost) polar opposites run together? And, as I’ve said, Rome will voice some of his more specific opinions below. If you’d like something concrete from me specifically, uh, how about a program for cooperation with defender regions (not in a participatory way, but in a public support way)... I think that would work. Looks like we have ANOTHER word from our sponsor.

5.) LITERALLY 1984 FOREVER, 10/1/2022 NEVER FORGET (I’m keeping this here forever)
The following is an excerpt from the October 2021 Prime Minister Baloominati Campaign. “Facts don't care about your feelings, dear reader. Let's say, hypothetically, that the opposition wins the election. They have 3 months to rule (allegedly). Sure, let's say they have 6 months to rule. That's 6 months of governmental work that could've been redirected to making memes. Let's say the BigBalooTMStatue goes mad, okay? Let's say it wants to eat your family, okay? If the liberal left says "the baloominati is lazy", then logically, they hate Baloo, correct? Let's say the BigBalooTM has already eaten your family, dear reader. Hypothetically speaking, what could the left do about it?” - Barlyy Loaves, 2021 I'm still funny, right? Right? Right? Right? You guys are the best! Honestly, I wonder if anyone notices that I add stuff every time to this section just because...oh well, I guess it’s time to extend this section a little bit more…and now, a final word from our sponsor.
Keep “The Slump™” Away, Vote Baloo and Rome Today!
SPECIAL SECTION COURTESY OF ROME
Criticism of PPC Dispatch:
New Embassies
5 Embassies? Really? I could get five embassies by myself in a few days. And you need the MoFA and ambassadors to get five embassies? Your requirements are okay, but really? FIVE? I expected a lot more from the PRP campaign since many of their platforms in this dispatch and their party dispatch focus on foreign policy. If Baloo and Rome are elected, we'll get double what the PRP promises.
Ambassador RP Advertising
The problem with Roleplay right now isn't a lack of foreign participation but domestic. Roleplay has been declining in Callista, in part due to real life but also because of encouragement. Before we put advertising in other regions, let's start with encouraging native Callistans and former IOC roleplayers to return to the Napoleonic roleplay. Our Roleplay needs to be sound among Callista's population first.
WA Voting Recommendations
The PRP is finally paying attention to World Assembly membership. Rhenzern made WA membership a focus in his last campaign, to which I agreed. The idea of benefits for WA members has been floating around in Callista for some time. Unfortunately, the PRP has chosen the worst idea they could've. I don't understand how nations don't realize that people do not care about the World Assembly. Voting Recommendations for two useless bodies will not encourage people to sign up. The General Assembly is powerless and doesn't affect gameplay, and the Security Council is irrelevant since Callista is neutral on foreign policy. If you want people to sign up for the WA, offer them exclusive cards, discord roles, and benefits that residents and citizens don't have the luxury of.
Government Dispatch Reform
This platform is going to be redundant in a few short days. Stay tuned.
Alliance with IOC-001AP-JR
Despite their attempts, I don't see a benefit to these alliances. Inter-Regional RP? We already do that with IOC, and you don't need the alliance to expand it to JR and 001 Alpha Prime, especially since you're already advocating for RP advertisements in regions like those. Raiding? All four states: Callista, JR, 001 Alpha Prime, and the IOC have non-executive Delegates with active Governors. Inter-regional political organizations? The People's Party already did that, and Callista has historically influenced IOC politics in some shape and vice versa. Respect for our RMB Laws? If other regions don't currently respect our RMB laws, I don't want them as allies.
People often seem to think that to be the best person they can be, they need to be some kind of hero. But truly, what does it mean to be a hero? Is it saving people? Working towards a brighter future? I say that to be a real hero, you have to put others before yourself, even if it means your own downfall. Needless to say, the current governmental situation is very lacking in any real heroes. I would even go as far as to say that there are no real heroes left in this world. Sure, there are those that help others; even work to better the community. These people are good people, and perform heroic actions. But there are none that truly stand up for the big picture. None that truly stand up to the failed society that holds us all prisoner. Until someone steps up and becomes the real hero the world needs, we will continue to fall and stagnate. There are no heroes here, friends. But there are villains. Think about that.
i literally called it.
goddamit i knew it
"Have You or a Loved One Been Subjected to Anti-Deep-State Propaganda?, Call 1-800-BOILOSERS Today"
this isn't fair at this point :/
I’m allowed to jab back
what did i do :((((((((((((((((((
Ideals are what make us. Ideals are what we are. Without Ideals, we are nothing more than organic machines marching towards a bleak, meaningless future, every moment getting closer to our even more meaningless demise. What are your ideals? What do they define you as? Choose the wrong ideals, and you are worse than not even having ideals at all. Choose the right ones, and you stand to gain everything. It may not be you who gains the benefit, but it gives purpose to the world. Choose the right ideals, people, and vote for those that have the same ideals as you. Don't vote for someone just because of their party, or because of things that happened long ago. Let the future of our ideals guide you, not the past
Master Bruxxa dropping the truth bombs
Rhenzern and Allertania
I'm INSANELY disappointed. I see NO policy points whatseover. Rome wails on me for being "too vague" but jesus christ this is the most vague thing I've ever read. Not a single thing is specified whatseover, I see NO plans for the future of the region besides "keeping the slump", no specifics, no details, just criticism of my campaign with nothing in yours.
Due to recent events, and machinations hid from the public eye, I am endorsing 
ARIsyan- for this campaign. That is all
Baloo Kingdom, Rhenzern, and ARIsyan-
I do not believe Rome has criticized your campaign for being “too value” in any official capacity. Also, I hate campaign “promises”. They almost never are met, and I find it much more enriching to propose general policy directions than specifics for that very reason.
Vote for me if you are a true Bluecrown Keep patriot like me
Gotta love those machinations hidden from the public eye
Chat did I just win?/hj
Also his criticism of my platform is honestly quite weak in and of itself. It's not the PM's responsibility to get RP activity up, that's the job of the MORP. What I CAN control however is how the MOFA operates, which is what I am proposing. Rhenzern will announce his campaign shortly which will detail his plans for getting callista's domestic RP activity up. Also an inter-regional alliance can only help, we're already in the works and all regional leaders have expressed their support.
And rewards for joining the WA won't work. We've seen similar things happen where no one cares about getting a banner or title or whatnot. WA voting recommendations will continue the debate and at least get the organization discussed. and many new nations DO care about proposals, as has been shown beforehand. Getting five new embassies is 100% possible and achievable, we have entered discussions with that number of regions in this term and I plan on closing those deals once elected.
Rome has in fact criticized previous campaigns for being "fluff". Not to be harsh, but your entire dispatch is fluff. Good or bad, that's for you to decide. But it is fluff. Maybe you can criticize my platform once you get one yourself.
baloo respond to my tgs :(
i need you to give me your pitch :((((
