The Union reminds Arbeiters that "trolling" is not an acceptable standard of political debate, unless aimed at capitalists, fascists, militarists, etc, who lack the neurological prerequisites to engage in such discourse. Southern Unioners are encouraged to remember that the average Unioner's literary age is roughly analogous to a twelve year old on PCP, and are encouraged to avoid engaging in difficult subjects, and are suggested to stick to familiar subjects, such as the market value of cardamine, bundschuh-based footwear puns, and the general terrible quality of life aboard wedel mining station.

“This life abides. My old union boss used to tell me that one. This life abides. It's brutal, difficult to work with, and full of people, for one reason or another, want you, your family dead, to back up a cause."
"He was hauling illegal goods. Guns. Blackmarket and unregistered. Probably rolled off the wagon in-bulk from the Ring. Mafia ordinance loaded up on a titanic liner. I suspect the crew were aboveboard - they usually all are, right? He sniffed the scent of coin."
"Black market munitions. Pallets and pallets of them - stacked high. You'd think he'd hear out or proposition considerin' he had few friends and the police wern't going to bail him out of this one. Bad day."
"No. He fired everything he had at us. Maybe even some of the cargo."
"The ship detonates. Antimatter and gluon plasma, high explosive and whatever he's hauling. Disgusted, deadly fireworks."

"Why is money so important to the lost boys who scurry off the straight-and-narrow and into hell, that they're willing to die over it? For us? Self-defence - they fired first. This isn't usually how it goes. Perhaps I'm just incensed because there won't be a strain to the conscientious once the word gets out. "

"Hell, maybe the Alster Union isn't giving these dead-and-gones enough credit. He did come back to save his friend. Started blazing with nary a word said, of course. When he dropped, he dropped a debris field, littered with turrets. I guess our friend Xen wasn't the only gunrunner out in Cologne."
