> The attack against Rhea Initiative citadel signals an attack against the values of independent thought and scientific pursuits that engulf the many great questions that New Eden faces. It is an outright terrorist attack, as after all the involved are openly terrorist groups, and despite of how there are absurdities regarding how this is just a personal issue, it is a mere fact that this issue goes well beyond vendetta. It is an attack against us and what we represent; freedom from the fear of oppression, pushing the boundaries of science in a meaningful manner that aims to help New Eden by revealing the truth, and ensuring the betterment of all lives.

I must admit I never expected this level of spin. So congratulations on surpassing my expectations.

First of all. This is not a terrorist attack. There was no CONCORD forces to stop us (or declare us criminals) even though it happened right at their doorstep, nor will there be a case on this in their files aside from the normal paperwork they have when capsuleers engage in combat. While I likewise disagree with how they conduct many things, this is still all according to the law.

Secondly. Are you even talking about me? I thought I made things pretty clear yet someone I have become the anti-science boogeyman? But go ahead. Paint me as a devil. I am sure horns and wings would suit me.
