Anti-Socialist Coalition

The **Anti-Socialist Coalition** (**ASC**) is the hypothetical coalition to counter the Socialist Coalition. The chances of the Anti-Socialist Coalition forming is low because anti-socialists are bitterly divided by both political spectrum and ideology. Center-leftists, some of whom are either anti-socialist or even distant from socialism, are still seen as opportunistically pragmatic with socialists, while the right are firmly anti-socialists, and the Anti-Socialist Coalition would likely be a right-wing coalition, which would not be popular in Chawosauria. The last time an anti-socialist coalition was experimented was during the 24th Chawopolis Palace ruled by the DKA Coalition, divided between social democrats and neoliberal conservatives, but was led by the social democratic Supreme Leader Degotoga K. Atagulkalu until he died in 2019, and his successor, Ekewaka Mikala Kalawai'a, failed to keep the DKA Coalition together in the midst of hatred between liberals and conservatives within the coalition, and the DKA Coalition collapsed in July 2019, resulting in the nastiest voter backlash translating into the electoral catastrophic collapse of the one-term anti-communist parliamentary majority in the 2019 Chawosaurian legislative elections, which were won by a landslide by the Chawosaurian Communist Party. The only anti-communist party to survive was the social democratic Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, which was left with 107 seats of all 1,000 seats in the Imperial Assembly of the Chawopolis Palace, the rest ruled by communists. The Chawosaurian Communist Party and the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party went on to form a bipartisan coalition government called the Socialist Coalition. It was solidly opposed by the Chawosaurian Right and it alienated some of the center-left.

The Anti-Socialist Coalition was proposed by Wendell Rawlings Burton during the prelude of the 2024 Chawosaurian legislative elections in hopes to unite all anti-socialist parties, the right and the center-left, behind the conservative Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party, but the center-left rejected the offer due to concerns of potential memberships of fascist groups such as Nazis, who are anti-socialist. Right-wing supporters of Burton expressed worry that the center-left would be pragmatic to the Socialist Coalition if they have an opportunity. This distrust between the Chawosaurian Right and the center-left is why the Anti-Socialist Coalition has never happened.

## Background and Idea

The Socialist Coalition was established in early 2022 by the Chawosaurian Communist Party and the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, led by Shang Jong Parker and Sydney Lucas Webster, respectively. The Communist Party are the governing party since the 2019 Chawosaurian elections, and the Social Democrats have traditionally and are the "supposed" opposition party against communist rule. But the Social Democrats worked with the Communist Party to fight against the threat of a COVID-19 on Chawosaurian shores and implement a progressive agenda, implementing the Green New Deal in Chawosauria, the progressive Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria, and a socialist agenda. Making the Social Democrats appearing like a sellout opposition party.

Frustrated, anti-communists look to the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party became led by Wendell Rawlings Burton in May 2022, and Burton proposed an "anti-socialist coalition" to unite his party and other anti-socialist parties in a coalition, but there was distrust between the right-wing and the center-left, fueling distrust between the two sides. Burton, a conservative, tried to unite the two fronts, but his efforts were unsuccessful.

## Continuing Prospects

Beyond 2022, speculations are ongoing about an anti-socialist coalition.
