A good test of solidarity for minority workers by these unions, even if the labour movement should divest from the Labour Party entirely atp

I’ve asked this question before but technically I didn’t get an official party response(and I didn’t find it satisfactory either) so asking again, what is the Marxist position on fiat money, particularly from the party’s perspective?

NTUC’s Fairprice has been labelled a cooperative and I just wonder, exactly how? In other countries, worker coops are democratically operated and profit is shared among workers. Does Fairprice have a similar system? Or is it just labelled a cooperative because it’s operated by a trade union?

For the longest time, I always assumed that the Stormcloaks had the most legitimate claim when it comes to the duel, mostly because every side agreed Torygg accepted Ulfric’s challenge and that it was an old Nordic tradition, so it’s kinda strange that the imperials still considered Ulfric a murderer. As for Ulfric’s use of the thu’um, while it may not have been fair per say, I don’t think anyone in game actually brings up Ulfric’s use of the voice as unfair, plus it’s not like it was a secret that Ulfric had it

However, in a previous thread, someone brought up up the possibility that the duels were not usually to the death and in my opinion, this is the most likely explanation behind the in-game debate over the duel’s legitimacy even among Nords

Historically, most duels, even pistol duels, were not to the death. That’s part of the reason why the Hamilton-Burr duel effectively ended Aaron Burr’s political career even though legally Burr was in the clear for killing Hamilton, you’re not supposed to actually kill someone during a duel

That being said, it’s also likely the Nordic tradition still allowed for it even if it was frowned upon and that’s where the debate begins, those on the side of the Imperials likely see Torygg’s death as ultimately illegal due to disapproved of from tradition while Stormcloaks see it as completely legal as tradition still allows it. Since Skyrim doesn’t have a formal legal code like America, and the already tumultuous tensions of Skyrim, instead of a trial we get a civil war
