The more time I spend as a capsuleer, the more I find out how completely insane a larger-than-is-comfortable number of capsuleers are.

I am also a human, straggling between the present world... and our future. I am a regulator, a coordinator, one who is meant to guide the way.

When partnering with a dog of war, or a hound of hell as some are called, once you let them loose you just can't predict what the consequences might be.

I'm only glad that Wolf is on the side of the Matari....

Wolf is my Warlord, Commander of my attack forces. He will be leading the fight for the freedom of the Matari people from the Amarr oppressors.

I strongly urge all Amarr to take heed of the danger threatening them at this stage. Leave Providence, abandon those who militarily support slavery, and refuse to fight in defence of them and in defence of slavery.

Help us free our people, and the bloodshed will be less than what it has the potential to be.

Do not let genocide come to your door. You have the power to control what is or is not inevitable.

If your people were killed and enslaved by the Matari instead, for the past thousand years, would you not feel some hatred as well?


Actually they were. Her mother - my sister - was Amarrian. Her father, however, was of Brutor ancestory. As such, I need not tell you how those ancestors came to be part of our Empire. Perhaps, however, since you are obviously quite blind to the existence of such phenomenon, his family had been set free three generations previously. Also, and I know this will make your eyes bleed, his great-great grandfather chose to stay within the Empire and took work as an engineer. When Roland & Melissa married they moved to Jarizza. Roland continued his family tradition of working as an engineer. Melissa was a doctor. Their daughter, Katran, entered the science academy at an early age.

We were visiting them when the attack hit. My husband, Thomas - who was originally from the Gallente Federation, by the way - died protecting me as we fled for the escape shuttles. My bodyguard was almost killed as well. Roland died as he tried to protect his family from the "liberators" whom then proceeded to violate & murder Melissa and kidnap Katran. Three lives lost, a fourth one stolen ... just another few drops in the ocean of blood that your "righteous cause" left behind.

In the end they didn't care who stood in their way. Ammarian, Jin-Mei, even Matari - all died at their hands with equal disregard. As for those who were "liberated" ... they were turned into conscripts, naturally. More fuel for the Republic war machine. A vicious cycle of pillage, murder and death.

So do not come to me atop some moral pedestal. We have also suffered from this conflict, and continue to do so. Our suffering isn't from some four-hundred year old grudge that our grandpappys stuffed into our noggins as children. It is right here, today, happening around us now. Every day we mourn our losses. Whom do you mourn? Whom can you mourn? There hasn't been an Amarrian slaver ship in Republic space in over a century.

The fact of the matter is that you don't even know the people that you are trying to "liberate" and you do not care to know them, either. Because when you do get to know them and find out that after eight hundred years of living in the Amarr Empire that they have become Amarrian - holding our culture, practicing our Faith, and being loyal to the friends & families that they have here - you brand them "race traitors" and stab them with bayonets. Nor do your really care about "freedom" - because if you did then you would not be calling for the deaths of those Matari who choose to remain loyal to the Empire.

In the end you are the victim. You are victim of the indoctrination of these glorious Warlords of yours who have all but usurped control of your entire government. Your Republic is not more than two steps away from becoming a junta, and the first of those steps is this war that you desperately crave. You say that your enemies tremble before you? I say that you are more right than you think. All of New Eden trembles before what you represent, because in the end all of New Eden is in your crosshairs - if not today then tomorrow.

1. Show me where the Matari have turned freed slaves into conscripts in the war against Amarr. I have only your words about this so far, as I can find no evidence anywhere else.

2. If your Roland was killed 'defending his family', then he was probably killed for attacking those who came to free him. You said it yourself. He died as he tried to protect his family. If he welcomed the liberators with open arms, he and his family would be alive today.

3. I didn't come to you. You came here to me. You read my words. If you don't like what I say, you have the power to avoid reading them. But you keep coming back. That's your choice. Thank you for your interest in what I have to say. Big smile

4. You have the nerve to say there hasn't been an Amarrian slaver ship in Republic space in over a century. You're either completely misinformed or trying to pretend a different reality. Here's a link to a random news item I found from four years ago:

That was not more than a hundred years ago, but only a few years ago. Amarrian ships in Republic space. And notice this from the news item:
Quote:
"In the last three months there have been numerous incidents concerning the kidnapping or the sudden disappearance of Matari people at outposts, colonies and stations along the Republic's border with Amarr space, many of which have been linked to the presence of Amarr vessels in the same vicinity."

No matter how much you deny it, Amarr ships have been found and destroyed in Republic space in the same area that Matari people have been disappearing. Coincidence? I don't believe in coincidence.

5. I brand as traitors only those Matari who, when faced with their people offering them freedom, instead choose to fight for Amarr. If they choose to fight for their masters against those who would free them, then they choose the consequences of their actions.

6. The only ones in our crosshairs will be those who engage in slavery or defend it.

Try to grasp this one simple fact you psychotic dolt: HE WAS ALREADY FREE.

He was born a free citizen of the Empire, as was his father before him. He was as equal in the Eyes of God as any citizen of the Empire. Armed soldiers came into his home, as they came into all the homes they could find. He died defended his home & his family from their abductors, as did so many others. But of course in your blindness anyone of Matari ancestry living in Amarr or Ammatar space must still be a slave and therefore must be "liberated" ... and any one who does not fit into this nice, neat little mold of your false preconception simply must be executed on sight in order to protect your delusional view of the Universe.

"The Imperial Embassy on Illiun III released a statement several weeks ago to say that the Amarr authorities had 'not given any authorisation for trespassing into Minmatar space' and that they would 'willingly assist the Republic with any ongoing investigations into proven cases of illicit kidnapping or slave-trading.'"

I assume that you do not believe in Blood Raiders or Sansha's Nation either. We have lots of experience in dealing with vermin who seek to take our people away for their own twisted ends. You and your ilk are nothing new.

In reality, our Great Empress has freed more slaves in one day than every last one of your so-called "Freedom Fighters" throughout histroy combined. How does that make you feel, to matter so little in the grand scheme of things? To know that the Amarrians themselves have freed more slaves than you could ever dream to?

Furthermore, when we say that we are going to set them free, we actually mean it. Millions unchained with a word - and yet you still insist on trying to justify war. Do not bother - people like you do not need justifications. For you, war is it's own justification & it's own reward.

And here the hollowness of your convictions are laid bare for all to see. You believe in another person's right to "freedom" only so long as that person is willing to do & believe as you want them to. The minute they try to actually use the true meaning of freedom to do or believe anything that you don't agree with then you brand them "traitors."

Do you know what you truly are, once all that fancy rhetoric is stripped aside? You want to come to planets that are not yours, kidnap people that you have never met by force and make them do & believe things in accordance with the wishes of your masters. Furthermore, if they do not comply with your demands or worse, try to defend themselves & their families, then you kill them. There is a word, a title if will, for this those employed in this profession...

I find the entire conflict both sad and funny at the same time.

Sad because on both sides are using tactics that will not work and funny because they sit with a straight face and insist they will.
The Matari by far is the most laughable though (and thats not coming from personal bias I can assure you)

You have the Matari thinking on various fronts that acts of terrorism will cause enough strain on a empire that covers just under half of the cluster by attacking both military and civilian targets. They assume that by destroying cargo vessels, freeing slave transports and in general other public acts of violence will crumble Amarrian will.

We are talking about a militarist empire with strong religious beliefs and how most children go through some kind of phase where they want to die a martyrs death in battle. Plus Amarrian do not retreat if they have any self value.

And your response is to threaten them with death? To pull a gun on them and their loved ones?

Listen the Empress is trying to revise our... Foreign policy and its not going to happen over night.

I myself freed all my slaves and I'm sure there are others.

I'd ask the Matari to be patient but I'm not sure they will.

Someone placed a bounty on my head

A bounty was placed on my head by a fresh new clone purpose-built for placing bounties. I contacted them to find out why, and their reply was:

"I don't ask why, I just take 10% from others."

So I asked how much it would cost to find out who paid him to place the bounty. He replied with:

"It's an anonymous service. Names would be bad for business."

The interesting thing is that I've done nothing to annoy anyone. Except for CVA and all of the Amarr, that is. So I'm blaming them for it.

Someone in CVA wants me dead, and have put a bounty on my head to help achieve that goal.

I'm not surprised. But it's going to take a lot more than a 5 million ISK bounty on my head to stop my campaign to rid this galaxy of those vermin.

As much as it pains me to agree with you on, well, anything really... you are right about this part. Five million isn't squat anymore. I've picked up more than twice that already and I'm just a miner.

And yeah, bounty alts are quite common. Anyone who mines can expect to get a bounty from those "minerbumping" nitwits - and one of those was placed on me by a bounty alt as well. Heck, might have been the same guy/girl that you mentioned (was it Sukie Loober?) So that's two things we actually have in common. (The other two contributors we some pirate who I had never met and - shock! - a random Goon).

But pretty much anything under fifty million can be pretty much ignored in hi-sec because it's still not worth the gank, and null-sec... well, they just twitch gank anything that moves and don't even check for bounties until they're looting the wreck. All that's changed is that now I use shuttles instead of my pod.

So don't let it get to you. Everyone has bounties these days. There's twats out there who don't even need a reason (see above). Besides, if you've really been doing all you claim to then wouldn't it actually be more insulting not to get a bounty? Someone as feverent as you should take pride in seeing how high they can get it.

Since starting my campaign to free the Matari slaves and destroy their Amarr slavers, interest in my campaign has been extremely high. However, interest in actually joining me has been minimal to nonexistent.

This apathy for the plight of the enslaved Matari is sad. I'm saddened and angered that so many people just don't care enough to actually do anything.

No wonder the Amarr get away with it.

But it will not stop me. I, and those who have joined me so far, are prepared to do something. We're prepared to actually do something to free our people.

I call out to those who have verbally supported me and this campaign - put your actions where your mouth is, and join the cause. If you support it, do so with more than just words.

Help bring freedom to those that have none.

I recall that pretty much every slave in Provi was either liberated by coalition forces or murdered by CVA's allies. Did they start getting more already? Does CVA even practice slavery anymore?

I've been out of the loop for a while. Somebody give me a TL;DR on the situation please.

What do you plan to do with those people once you have freed them? once you have ripped them from the only life they have ever known, torn from their homes and what bit of life they have?

Please understand, slavery is not something I support, but at the same time I find that people overlook what comes after you have 'freed' them. Immigration into the Republic hasn't been the smoothest process and the borders are filled with refugee camps because the Republic simply doesn't know what to do with the influx of hundreds of millions of new freeman coming into their systems. Even then, the Amarrian Matar slaves may be genetically Matari, but that's where it ends for many.

What you are essentially doing is destroying the only world they know and tossing them into the uncaring 'freedom' of the cluster that can be far harsher than a Holders whip.

This entire conflict is tragic and increasingly distressing. The destruction of Matari Amarrian faithfuls' lives and those of their families, of ethnic Amarrians and their own families, the quality of life that many 'freemen' suffer in refugee camps - not all of whom who wish to be there...

Just how long is the Republic going to call themselves liberators in order to cruelly destroy the livelihoods of their brothers and sisters who follow the Amarr faith?

For just how long are we going to stand by and watch this infantile government neglect it's people in the pursuit of mass-destruction and genocide?

And how long, exactly, is the excuse of the events of the Minmatar Dark Days going to justify the Republic's actions, even as the Empire continues to free Minmatar slaves?

I don't truly believe the Republican dogs will lay down their warlike ways even when every last Minmatar living within the Empire is recognized as a full citizen. This is a lost generation. Scores of my kin have been taught only to fight and hate by this system.
