The world is futuristic, maybe even post-apocalyptic

Caves of Qud is the tone I go for in all of games, ancient far future tech coupled with primitive savagery and an ancient moral outlook is my jam. I'm an economically centrist traditionalist voluntarist myself, but I don't bring that into my games, and you shouldn't bring politics into Veeky Forums. Post more high-concept art instead, because that shit is cash.

It was, but for the board's sake, take it to /pol/.

It upsets me because it's rapidly becoming reality

Did you notice that you wrote "was"?

This is good. What duties and powers does a salaryman hold?

And capitalism is better because it doesn't kill innoc- OH SHIT.

Neo-middle management. Herding weak AIs and automated production cells in order to produce goods.

>Peasants know how to make and use firearms, but actually firing one in a civilized area is a good way to get targeted by nobility-controlled miniature explosive drone swarms that go for the head.
>Hand-to-hand combat, clubs, knives and swords have made a comeback among the peasantry.

Because communist countries never have war, famine, and crime lol

That wasn't the argument. The argument was that communism and capitalism have both lead to those things, so it's not reasonable to just pin it on one.

Ideologies don't kill people, people kill people.

People don't kill people, physics kills people.

Spouting a platitude at me isn't an argument. I'm not saying people don't kill people, you just misconstrued what they were saying.

ok, but can they still have a sword?

It is expected, although the traditional daishō is now a set of a sword and a handgun, rather than two swords.

All of you stop arguing! And start posting Veeky Forums related stuff, or if you can't try working it into to setting.

Do the peasantry have access/can make tasers? Is explosive drone poaching a thing? Are they allowed to have a personal garden?

>All of you stop arguing! And start posting Veeky Forums related stuff, or if you can't try working it into to setting.
The OP is bald-faced political shitposting. This is a bait thread

>Do the peasantry have access/can make tasers?
Not really, and they'd be useless against the nobility's robotic peacekeeper units.

>Is explosive drone poaching a thing?
Poaching things that blow up in your face is not a good idea.

>Are they allowed to have a personal garden?
The nobility doesn't micromanage what the plebs do in their reservations. They just keep an eye out for and curbstomp anything that looks like it may become a threat to the feudal status quo.

You are a bait thread.

The gun has supplanted the sword, its artistry and skill in use indicating a skilled warrior. The sword in turn is used to dispatch rabbal as not to,waste precious ammo.

There's a guttural satisfaction in cutting an uppity peasant down. Most of them have subservience beaten into their skulls from a young age, so you won't even really have to fear retaliation from other peasants. Besides, the law is on your side. You can afford to buy justice, they can't.

...

>not hijacking bait threads for some collective writing
You disgrace the memory of the elegan/tg/entlemen that came before. You are not worthy of shitposting where they once shitposted.

Some corporate nobles have gone to,such lengths to encourage small black,markets to help,undermine rivals.

Some idealist noble snowflakes even try to improve the standard of living for peasants in their reservations.

There exists a consensus among most peasants that any noble meddling in their reservations, whether clandestine or out in the open, generally ends up hurting the peasants.

They'll still line up for free food, though. The genetically engineered, vat-grown food the nobles eat is more nutritious and tasteful than anything you might be able to grow and prepare the old-fashioned way.

>it's yet another thread that's ostensibly Veeky Forums-related but in reality is just a vector for applesponges to shit up this board with their political opinions

Beyond the safety of the settlement walls life is distinctly different. Vast jungles of strange mutated plants now cover what may have once been arcologies, metal mountains riddled with caverns that are host to all sorts of strange and unusual creatures including degenerate forms of human life that now scarcely resemble their forebears.

Other lands are vast expanses of strange metallic plains upon them plants with leaves like dagger blades grow and among their tangles are being with skin of copper and eyes like emeralds.

Upon the coasts vast spires of crystalline stone rise out of the waters and among the crags at their bases lurk monstrous creatures that resemble great serpents with teeth like shards of glass.

Though there are technically legal ramifications to committing murder they are often glossed over if the zaibatsu is of high enough rank and instead they typically are faced only with fines or able to get off on self-defense charges. It does little to help that most forms of Law Enforcement are themselves of the Salaried class. Plebian on Plebian crimes are followed up if it would actually impact the well being of Corporate nobility in particular if they are a bastard of someone within their ranks which is far from an uncommon occurrence.

Though life extension exists true immortality remains but a pipe dream. The longest living member of the Corporate Realms is Hanzo Jingwe at a little over three hundred years, though to say the man is alive is debateable as he has steadily become less and less cognizant and seems to suffer from dozens upon dozens of different maladies.

So,corporate nobility basically are giving up humanity to stay alive?

Excuse you? The nobility are humanity. They define humanity. If they change and the plebs don't, that means the plebs are no longer human.

One could debate that for days but regardless they're still more human than the things crawling out of the Arco mountains.

Seeeohs are the ruling class often dressed in in luxury that the plebisn can only dream,of they rule from,within their headquarters administering tasks to those below them. But the life of a Seeoh is not simply leisure. Their power and grasp of it is a fragile thing as they often must contend with their rivals from other corporations trying to take them over.

Corporate analists are a subclass of the nobility. Corporate breeding programs have produced bloodlines which, with the proper neurosurgical enhancements and lifelong treatment, possess unparallelled cognitive and analytical abilities. A few bloodlines among the analist subclass are suited to different, less taxing an invasive medical procedures that allow them to act as translators for analists and their superiors. This is necessary, as the analists' uniquely superhuman perspective on the world renders them nearly unintelligible to normal nobles.

Despite their enhanced abilities, analists are often viewed as second-rate nobility, fit only to be used by their betters and to never lead other nobility in their own right.

Some say their business decisions are flawless, potentially enabling corps to establish a complete, global monopoly within a generation. Fortunately, things are always and unavoidably lost in translation, so a certain balance between the corps is maintained.

For a reason they cannot adequately explain, 97% of analists in every single recorded generation have insisted that every corp maintain a peasant class of at least 45% of their manpower, if need be in reservations, in order to safeguard the future of the human race. Any corps that have ignored this imperative and cleansed their peasant population to cut costs found themselves bankrupt within two generations.

A unique organization within the world of the corporate kingdoms or the Pemsees private rotary contractors formed usually from, salaryman thst have left their firm for whatever reason and plebisns seeking a way to rise in rank. These organizations are some the few that dare venture into the dangerous wildlands seeking out artifacts and glory.

Good shitpost or terrible trolling.

Just in case it's only super ignorance, you should know McCarthyism isn't despised for being against Communism, it's despised because McCarthy lied and accused loads or regular Americans of being Communists, making them accuse others.

Literally the same tactics were why Authoritarian countries take root, see the Soviets or Nazis for examples. Accuse people, so they accuse people.

>applesponge
The fuck is that? Is this what it feels like to get old, not understanding what the kids are saying?

>am one trying to salvage thread.
>shitpost instead.

With that said so not to be s blight. Every five years the largest corporate nations hold a conclsve. The exact location is half secret but, the events help decide the course of the next several fiscal years in terms of goals and motives. It is also often rife with assassination attempts and political intrigue.

Pemsees act also as private armies in some cases.travelling from realm to realm offering their services.

Wait a fucking minute. Is this Lazarus?

Huh?

The fuck,is Lazarus?

>corporations
>not using "corponations" instead

Puns are the lowest of the low.

I would like to know, too.

Also trips.

I mean yeah but it is suitable.

Famine wouldn't have been nearly as bad if the Brits hadn't been taking all the other Irish crops to sell overseas. Ireland is the only place that exported food during a time of famine.

Do you realize that it's subsequently turned out that nobody McCarthy tried in court was innocent of being a Soviet agent, even the ones who got off? The declassification of Soviet and DDR documents has shown that most of the people who were even on his LISTS really were Reds. Whatever his sources or methods were, they were good, and he was toppled by a literal Communist plot to discredit him because he was doing too much damage.

So is there any saving this thread?
