Minmatar/Caldari: Relations

Yeaaaah, see… I don’t have security personnel. I mean, my ships do. And the stations I live on do… but like, a personal detail? Why would I need one? One of the enduring lessons of history is that if someone wants to kill you badly enough… they’ll find a way. So, you know… why stress it? Best case, it doesn’t happen, so no need to stress. Worst case, you die in a very final and permanent way, and then you can’t stress over it. Soooo… why stress? Just seems like a whole lot of wasted effort.

In my case, it’s not for myself.

The ongoing kinda-sorta Amarrian civil war against the Sani Sabik gets really nasty and really, really personal.

I bet you people don’t even have a rubberised waterproof comm unit for reading the IGS while in the bath.

Savages.

How antiquated. My cerebral implant lets me read the IGS without any external hardware.

It doesn’t look like we have war against them. They don’t hold territory here, they are just underground criminal cultists. If they will come out from their hiding to go real war at us, this will be our most easy victory.

I wonder a little how you’d look at the Blood Raiders, then, Ms. Hanaya, but even leaving them and other cults based outside Imperial territory aside, a power-obsessed enemy who has to stay hidden to survive is actually kind of a dangerous problem to have.

It’s a fight that pits friends and relations against one another, with the bitterest of ill feeling apparent on basically all sides-- particularly since an exposed Sabik has basically nothing to lose by doing things like kidnapping her uncle and returning him to her aunt in installments.

It might not be a war in the sense of massed fleets, usually. It’s a violent struggle between people who often once loved one another, just the same.

As abominations that have lost everything that was making them humans.

I can’t imagine my friends or relatives falling so low to become S.S.!
Some people might complain that the Inquisition can be too harsh or that it eats too many resources to catch just some heretics. But I can say, that since some of these heretics can be S.S., and while the Inquisition will keep finding and catching S.S., they totally justify their existence and their harsh methods!

Please tell me that can be turned off? Otherwise it will become the text book definition of ‘cruel and unusual punishment’.

Yes. It can be turned off. It’s more than an IGS viewer.

You say “antiquated”. I say an elegant device, for a more civilised age.

I prefer to spend my bath time focusing on chocolate and interesting tales of fiction.

careful with that kind of talk, Pieter.

You may be denounced as being a crypto-hedonist, by the State Un-Caldari Activities Committee.

There you go. You misspelled a word.

If the State has advanced bureaucratic science to the point where a committee requires only one member to be effective, then, well, I would be most impressed.

That means they had developed an individual with a fragmented mind.

I’m currently relatively solitary, Pieter, but if you know someone who’d be interested send them my way.
