Personal comments:

@This is just a game/fiction, and any related stupid thoughts: yes, this is fiction, means certain parts are fictious, but certain parts are taken from our real life. Which is which? Spaceships, FTL travel, aliens, these are fictious. Human emotions, logic, decisions, relations, military hierarchy and responsibilities coming with ranks are not. Learn the difference already.

@Rest: One would expect that people getting into military positions requiring high levels of responsibility got into their position because they met all the requirements, including high levels of responsibility. Witnessing such person in such position behaving less responsible than expected can be quite immersion-breaking, henceforth I can totally understand people discussing this topic on ooRP grounds.

@Responsibility: I personally believe that the rank of a Vice Admiral is high enough to require responsibility including knowing well what a Vice Admiral can and cannot say in public, no matter his or her personal opinion about things and no matter whether he or she speaks as a Vice Admiral at that time or just a single citizen, he or she will still be a figurehead of the military he or she is a member of. This also means reinterpreting his or her own message before sharing it with the public, taking parts out of context and interpreting separately, and then taking out the problematic parts, parts which could be interpreted in a way to be used against himself or herself later, removal of potential attack points in speech is a crucial part of PR, and a responsibility of a Vice Admiral. Should the transmission being the topic of discussion at present have happened with taking care of the above, I'm sure we wouldn't have this drama either.

End of personal comments.
