I asked the KR devs about Foster on the KR Discord, and they told me that Foster's social policies are based on his syndicalist writings from OTL, specifically this passage right here:

And the part of legalizing suicide?

I love the Custom Country Paths mod. Just had an epic game with Germany surrounded by a massive Internationale (Batavia, USSR, Poland, Scandanavia and Spain all joined them). Just set up one with the Internationale imploding in 1936 and me trying to win with the CSA against a Garner-No-Long-AUS America to restore syndicalism into the world.
On the legalization of suicide part, I believe that came from this passage, as the devs told me Foster wrote that engineering your own suicide in defiance of capitalism was a good thing, and I believe they were referring to this:And the part of legalizing suicide?

I'm wondering what the political overtone window of a Long rebels, Reed compromises timeline would look like in the USA, assuming Olson manages to whoop Long's ass, I'm thinking its gonna look a lot like OTL Italy, the socialist are competitive, wins local elections, but are always a few inches short of winning the presidency.
Maybe name them after tribes in the areas of Mittelafrika, RP them as levee's from the chiefsIdeas for custom names for my Askari divisions as Germany?
Oh, good, finally something a bit less of a stretch than Kruschev!Seems massive changes for the Ukraine are planned.

I'll miss Vasyl "groomed to be Polish, wanted to be Ukrainian so much he escaped home to travel Ukraine undercover" Vyshyvanyi, I'll admit.Oh, good, finally something a bit less of a stretch than Kruschev!
Psyched for this rework.

Based on the updated Vasyl page, he has been turned into a leading figure of anti-Hetman movements based in Galicia-Lodomeria, with ties to people like Symon Petliura. He may or may not be a pretender to the Ukrainian throne, but if so he appears disillusioned with it.I'll miss Vasyl "groomed to be Polish, wanted to be Ukrainian so much he escaped home to travel Ukraine undercover" Vyshyvanyi, I'll admit.
German Rework is, as I understand it, something that has been a slow-burn concern for quite a while, it just isn't the 'literally predates HOI4' thing of the Chinese rework.https://kaiserreich.fandom.com/wiki/German_Empire/Parties
There seems also a german rework going on, with the most changes in the german party system.
I must say, I always considered it a mistake, that a Catholic like Papen was the leader of the DKP.
He's not going to be gone from Kaiserreich, he'll just be in Russia instead (because that's where he should be).We'll miss the Corn Lord.
I like the detail and realism but I'm gonna miss Lettow-Vorbeck.https://kaiserreich.fandom.com/wiki/German_Empire/Parties

Perhaps he'll show up in Mittelafrika as someone... not too fond of Göring's rule?I like the detail and realism but I'm gonna miss Lettow-Vorbeck.
I actually have been thinking about this! It might be overly romantic/whitewashing, but I can definitely see Lettow-Vorbeck gaining a lot of respect for some of the local black cultures after using them as Askari, and even becoming sort of progressive in a '30s racist way. "The Ngoni and waHehe are true warrior races, possessed of dignity, honor, and martial prowess that would make them the envy of Europe, had they only industry, modern science, and sound leadership from Berlin to get them on their feet. I made men of those peoples officers in my army in the Weltkrieg, and they served me loyally for seven long years as well as any white man under my command. What von Göring has done to their land is a disgrace and an insult to the dignity of these folk that we should be looking in the eye as equals as we raise them to be our partners on the Dark Continent to keep the ungrateful rebels from overrunning our domain!"Perhaps he'll show up in Mittelafrika as someone... not too fond of Göring's rule?
