The Capellan Confederation has the most oppressive government in the Inner Sphere (followed closely by the Draconis Combine). They treat their people like possessions,
No, we do not! We never did. Our chancellors never did. If that were the case we would have had a revolt a long time ago but it never happend.

and don't even consider them citizens until they've served the government.
or they earned it by simply being a cook, a poet, a teacher, a salesman, or one of millions of other ways to earn their citizenship. The easiest way is to simply serve your time in the military, but it is by far not the only one. And above all, we educate them even before they become citizens, no matter if they are poor and living on the streets or rich and eating from golden plates.

Those who don't are relegated to the status of second-class citizen with no legal rights. In short, the CC doesn't value human life, and has no regard whatsoever for individual liberty.
We don't value those, that don't want to commit themself. If you just want to hang around an waste time, look somewhere else. But if you work, for the nation, for your neighbour or to enlighten our cultural understanding, you will be a citizen with morepersonal freedom then any other nation will grant you.

The Federated Suns, on the other hand, stringly values freedom and liberty, and protect the rights of the lowliest individual. The sheer dominance of the AFFS protects these values from the oppressive, warmongering dictatorships that border the FedSuns.
That's why you have children living on the street, that will never learn to read or write. Instead of pushing the nations economy to further youzr military goals, you should try to live up to your selfproclaimed picture of your nation and invest some money into social projects.

The FedSuns are indeed warmongering at times, but surrounded by such neighbors, can you blame them? And when has the FedSuns oppressed whole planets? Even with their warlike tendencies, there's no denying that the FedSuns are the freest state in the Inner Sphere.
Oh, yeah? Free? You may think so, but your whole nation only exists to further the goals of one family. That's great freedom you have there. Our leaders serves our nation. If s/he does not, s/he will lose her citizenship like anybody else. They are not above judgement, like yours seem to be.

This is probably a losing fight in the CC forums, but the fact that anyone can actually support a government led my Romano Liao appalls me.
How can you not support the leadership of such a noble and wise and rightous person like our beloved chancelor Romano Liao?

You say that as if the Fourth Succession War was unwarranted, when Max Liao had already tried to replace Hanse with a double, and both countries had been add odds for ages.
One man threatened in the FedSuns, takes revenge on millions of innocent capellan citizens. After he robbed them of homes and food and the peacefull life they had in the ConCap, he complains that they don't want to to be integrated into his nation peacefully? And not only did he involve the one who has been responsible for it, he had to throw the whole inner sphere into a war. His spy had a chance to kill the one responsible at any given moment. But Hanse never even considered that. He didn't want to take revenge. Whoever believes that, probably also believes in santa claus and the easter bunny.
