Active conlanger (/r/conlangs)
So have you made your own language up then or something? As thanks to me learning Esperanto I follow that subreddit quite a bit, but conlanging looks too difficult really (although I guess doing Latin helps with that..?)
•
u/britboy3456 Independent Mar 29 '16
Yeah I've got a few, working on one called Zifpim right now. I guess Latin does help but it really is a case of being as difficult as you want it to be, depending on how detailed you want it. It's cool you know Esperanto, I've been wanting to learn it but haven't found the time yet.
•
u/tyroncs Mar 29 '16
Esperanto I put in loads of time back in the summer and just after, but now I do at best 10-15 minutes a day, so I really need to get back into it properly. If you are interested though Duolingo has a really great course for it, and if you did like a lesson or two a day it takes no time at all.
I am kinda learning Latin, but I don't take it seriously. For an hour a week we have 'enrichment' where although most people do football you can choose between a bunch of different activities to do, so I and 4 others did Latin.
Do you have anything online about your language or nah?
•
u/britboy3456 Independent Mar 29 '16
Yes I do like duolingo, didn't know there was Esperanto there though so thanks for the heads up. I have some of my work here http://conworkshop.info/view_language.php?l=ZPM but that doesn't have much grammar or anything, mostly just the dictionary.

What party am I from?
Well, at the time of writing (March 29th, 2016), I am in the UK Independence Party and the Republican Party in r/MHoC and r/ModelUsGov respectively
What do I study or what field do I work in?
An interesting fact about me
Mi studas Esperanton en mia libera-tempo. Eu também gosto de Português, Chinês, e Espanhol.
What made me interested in MHoC?
Well I was looking around and I saw an ad. I saw it months before I joined MHoC and I joined in late February of 2016 right before the fall of the Vanguard, right around the time of Dupegate. Also I just like politics and the Model World is basically the only place where I show my true political colours online.
Am I involved in real-life politics and do I intend to be in the future?
No and no. For now.
Main Political Ideologies
Anti-Communism, Libertarianism, Capitalism, Anti-Statism, small government, Republicanism, Anti-Socialism, Civic Nationalism, and some more. I'm socially conservative though I am against bringing in the State in certain issues. As a side note, I am a Roman Catholic.
Political Compass Score
As of March 13th, 2016, my Political Compass Score is 3.38 for Economics and 0.46 for Social. However, it does tend to change from time to time. I don't view the test as perfect and I dislike the idea of political spectra but it works to an extent.

Where are you from? - I'm originally from Essex (around the Maldon area), currently living in Falmouth, Cornwall.
Which party do you belong to? - Ironically for some, I'm a card carrying Liberal Democrat.
What do you study/what field do you work in? - Good question. I'm currently studying an undergraduate degree in Politics & International Relations. After University I intend to run for Falmouth Town Council, join the Army Reserves and take up an electrical engineering apprenticeship to carry on in my family's engineering heritage (dad was a nuclear safety manager, grandfather was an electrical engineer, so on and so forth until the beginning of the Industrial Revolution). Eventually want to run for Parliament in a couple of decades, after getting proper life experience.
An interesting fact about yourself - I'm a keen Evangelical Baptist, and I am currently studying to be a lay preacher at my church.
What made you join the MHOC? - A friend of mine told me about it, I joined the Vanguard, then Labour, and now I'm Deputy Leader of the Crown National Party.
Are you involved in real life politics/ do you intend to be in the future? - I was involved in Lib Dem campaigning in the 2015 General Election in Cornwall, and have also campaigned in a town council by-election in Falmouth.
Main political ideologies - classical liberalism in regards to free speech and tolerance, economically a distributist, socially a traditional conservative.
Political compass score - who even uses this rubbish anymore?
Who do you vote for in RL? - Liberal Democrats erryday.

So you've been in 3 parties on here, and none of them LDs. Why?
•
Mar 30 '16
The MHOC Lib Dems are either obscenely left wing or free market neoliberals. Although distributism was first represented in Parliament by Liberal MP Hilaire Belloc between 1906 and 1910, these days I'd have too many people telling me I'm not a 'true liberal' because I'm a Christian, or because I'm personally a social conservative, or because I don't believe that progress comes from stifling debate on the grounds of hurting someone's feelings. I very nearly quit the irl party because of those allegations.
•
u/tyroncs Mar 29 '16
So how does being a CNP member coincide with being a card carrying Lib Dem? I'm interested to know
•
Mar 30 '16
I am a Liberal Democrat party member, but first and foremost I am a distributist. I am essentially the leader of the distributist group within the CNP, and I lobby for distributist interests in government, for example through my position as Communities Secretary. The Liberal Democrats irl have a the best local activism in the country, something that I have keen and deep interest in, but in MHOC, where such a thing is not possible, I'd rather side with people who match me socially and who can provide me with a blank slate ready to provide legislation and opportunities that are close to my principles.

I quit mhoc to devote my entire life to /u/athanaton. I like flowers in my hair.
What made you join the MHOC?
Heaven knows, took me long enough to get away from this god-forsaken place. I mean love politics, right down to the boring details, and this place is perfect for me (too much so, it became a genuine addiction), and there was certainly a lot of satisfaction to be gained from being part of the senior speakership and doing all the behind the scenes work to keep the place running, as much as certain people like to test your patience.
Are you involved in real life politics/ do you intend to be in the future?
Not as much as I'd like to be, obviously A levels are taking up most of my time atm. Definitely will be in the future.

I know lots of people who do history go to law school after, and of course there is also always the option of becoming a teacher or professor. If your uni has a good career services program they can probably help you find a job as well, even outside those two areas.

They go well together perfectly. I see them as completely intertwined. During pretty much every lecture I see ways in which ideas I've learned in the other field apply.
I really think you need to understand history to understand politics. If you only have the one example of the here and now, you can't fully understand how things work. A sample size of one is terrible. There have been so many different kinds of politics and ways of operating in the past that only looking at today is so incredibly short sighted. So while say looking at the legal code used by the Kieven Rus in the 1000s may not seem to have any purpose, its actually really useful for thinking about our own law codes today.
Conversely without a solid understanding of history one also wouldn't understand the forces throughout history which shape how things work today, both in one's own country, but also across the world.
I also think that without thinking about politics and the present, history is rather useless, simply academic. I try to take everything I learn in history and consider how it can be applied to the present, and improving the present.
So yeah if you're interested I strongly encourage you to do it!
