Tsukono Wei was the younger brother of Ming Wei who rose to the highest ranks of the Nokarodo Faction after the death (and perceived execution) of his brother. Thanks to his brother's increased influence, Tsukono was allowed to go study at Weicheng University.

After the death of Ming, he started radicalising and finally wrote his manifest, which would inspire the party: "Socialist Path of Wei to Salvation" in which he described the importance of an uprising against the Jing Dynasty, an overthrow of the monarchy, dissolution of the army and navy, and equal rights for all minority groups.

His personal endorsement of the Xianbei Defiance costed him a lot of the goodwill from the authorities, as well as the support of a majority of his voter's base. As his traditional voters where banned from voting in the Xianbei Province, the party saw a crushing defeat during the 1650 Yuan Elections. Tsukono was the only party member to retain his seat in the Tiefenque District. The 1657 elections would see an increase in support for his party, but also - under influence of the war - a division between leftist politicians. The lack of a stable democratic Imperial Yuan soon brought the end of the last remnants of the Xianfa Constitution: the Chidao Emperor was put on the Throne, while his advisors disbanded the elected Yuan in favour of the Gong Suweiai.

Tsukono lost his seat, influence and more or less disappeared from public life. As the Nokarodo Faction was banned during the reign of the Chidao Emperor, the party became an underground resistance movement. In 1673 it became one of the first four parties to participate in the Micras Socialist International, and Tsukono became a respected member. In 1679 he was invited by Pekke Aloorion of the Elwynnese Workers' Party to sit, together with Pekke Aloorion and Hendrik Van Hoevendaal of the Labor Party of Alrig in the investment approval board of the Global Solutions Corporation a consultancy and ethical investments brokerage which is related to the International.
