To the OP ...... slither back under your rock.

You have delivered the stereotypical rant of the unwashed unskilled envious losers that dwell at the bottom of every society where merit and intelligence offer a path to success, "I'm not a racist, just a concerned citizen" (Who stands against everything his nation stands for.).

Please immigrate to amarr where your type of delusional filth passes for religious scripture. As the saying goes "Good riddance to bad rubbish!".


Mr. Ronin, I completely agree with you. Such rot as that which Mr. Roden has set forth here is not representative of Gallentean society, the ideals of freedom we uphold, nor in the interest of the Federation as a whole.

You would make a good Dale- err Caldari.

While agree with your sentiment, I can do so freely without fear of reprisal, if only because I live on the opposite side of New Eden. As a Federation citizen, however, saying such things makes me fear for your safety, as Blaque's regime has a way of making disappear those who make a habit of actually exercising the rights that the Federation claims to uphold.

This lie is particularly laugh-worthy coming from an imperial. Exactly how much freedom of speech does the average Amarrian or Ammatar have when there's only one "official" news outlet and all speech is subject to review and/or censure by the Theology Council?

I would imagine 2 possibilities

1) They are saying this to try and gather sympathy for the Amarr as a whole.
2) Lady Katherine will soon "vanish" and find herself as a slave somewhere for daring to express ideals similar to the Federation ideals.

While I agree that the Empire practices extremely heavy censorship of speech and thought, I'd imagine capsuleers would be able to express themselves more than the average baseliner.

Watch_ Fred Fred Frederation_ and stop [u]cryptozoologist[/u]! Fight against the brutal genocide of fictional creatures across New Eden! Is that a metaphor? Probably not, but the fru-fru- people will sure love it!

Snort. I'll just leave this here:

"This tendency has led opponents of the Empire to declare the ACN as little more than an Imperial propaganda tool. While this is in some cases a fair assessment, in practice the Empire does little to censor its news agency. The ACN was the first news corporation to cover embarrassing events such as the gruesome public trial of Aritcio Kor-Azor, all in a relatively unbiased and open manner."
