Thank you for your prompt replies.

Allow me to summarize a few things, beginning with our beliefs, phrased in appropriate detail and simplicity. The Kusari Liberation Army is a united front dedicated to destroying the Empire of Kusari, including the offices of Emperor, Shogun, and any noble titles, and seeks to abolish the capitalist system and establish a worker-run democratic system for all Kusari. We believe that true emancipation of the body politic requires both the destruction of the keiretsu and the very system that has allowed such actors to exist and thrive. There are many ideological camps within our coalition, but we believe we represent a significant portion of the left-aligned Blood Dragon movement, following in the vein of martyrs like our late Comrade Ozu. This means under our banners is a significant numbers of socialists, communists, anarchists, and some progressive social democrats. We also believe clinging to feudal concepts and notions such as "shogunates" and "daimyos" and "samurai" are reactionary and serve to oppress and enslave the people of Kusari, rather than liberate us.

I admit, your sect does not seem to have any clear ideological undergirding. I do see some anti-corporate sentiment among you, but also a predilection for the same feudal trappings as preceding groups. Regardless of whatever beliefs you claim to profess, it would be in the best interest of either of our camps to dissuade our personnel from engaging in petty grievances, taunts, or anything but respectful exchange of ideas. Additionally, we ought to unite in combatting common foes in the Imperial government, the keiretsu, Samura's lapdogs in the Farmers Alliance and Hogosha, and others. It is paramount that we maintain a united front. My man seemed to lose his temper when, after tense conversation and disagreements, your pilot seemed to taunt him when he faced down a KOI agent in combat. I would like to avoid regrettable situations like this in the future.

And please. There is no need for threatening language and posturing. I came to you with civility. Let's keep it that way, yes?

Solidarity.
