This situation is getting bad. How direly is the strike affecting our production?

This situation is getting bad. How direly is the strike affecting our production?

It's slowed the projected date of our Heavy Cruisers and Aircraft Carrier by 5-6 months, and our two new Marine divisions and factories by 2-3.

If it matters at all, I'd personally advocate the second option.

[McJongJing]

What would Machiavelli do?
He'd crush the dissenters.
Then those workers in regions whom did not dissent would be rewarded for their loyalty.

Refuse. Fuck them.

[ScumbagSoldier]

Fuck it. Refuse.

[Kami_sama]

Yay for the power of the people!

We can't invade other country if our own population wants us out, let's negotiate!

[Ollistar]

REFUSE.

[a worthless person]

Any other thoughts before I do my next update?

[McJongJing]

Why have we ended accords with Canada and France?
Last I checked they aren't commies are they?

In the dissenter's ultimatum, the Emperor's Cabinet mirrored Tennō Heika in the desire not to compromise and fold to the demands of the strikers. The decision was announced later in the day, on August 6th. Police presence was kept high, and the military kept a close eye on important areas of Japanese industrial interest.

10 days later, the dissenters made their true colors known. On the morning of August 16th, Prime Minister Inukai arrived at the Emperor's residence by car, met personally by Tennō Heika, and his wife, Empress Kōjun, along with several members of the Emperor's Cabinet. Moments after exiting his car, a small group of dissidents overwhelmed the Prime Minister's escorts, and stabbed the Prime Minister to death before the Emperor's guards could kill the attackers.

Under different circumstances, the decision would have been up to vote by the Emperor's Cabinet. But with the audacity of the no-doubt syndicalist dissidents, to kill the Emperor's chosen Prime Minister in full view of H.I.M Hirohito and his wife, Tennō Heika made the decision himself, hours later the same day.

By the evening, the Diet of Japan had been dissolved, replaced with an apparatus of a military council underneath only Tennō Heika and his cabinet, and above all other authority. Police presence in striking areas was replaced with military enforcement and curfew, and several leaders in the movements were rounded up and executed.

Overnight, Japan had transformed from a Social Conservative Diet-based government into a autocratic system with all control placed in the Emperor, his cabinet, and the military.

Pre-Assassination of Inukai

Post-Assassination of Inukai

Only 2 days later, new issues appeared. Seemingly taking advantage of the situation back home, the Korean Government-in-Exile has begun a campaign to rally Korean nationals and return Korea to the hands of the Koreans.

Another vote has fallen into the laps of the Emperor's Cabinet while Tennō Heika helps the new Military Council with stabilizing the situation on the home islands.

Time for a vote, Minna!

Not commies, but they are weaklings, with ambitions to start wars that won't benefit us at all if we were dragged in with them.

[McJongJing]

"the diet was dissolved and returned to an autocratic rule"
All according to keiaku.
Push Transmur for a crack down.

Rip prime minister

Let's rekt the Korean

[ScumbagSoldier]

Fuck you, I would have voted for the other thing.

What are the pros and cons to both options?

Fuck you, I would have voted for the other thing.

What are the pros and cons to both options?

Are you asking about the assassination or the korean vote?

[ScumbagSoldier]

The Korean vote.
