"You'll have to forgive me for such a delay, so that I can tell you more about this. I think it's better to communicate this way, there are too many interruptions in space.
"Times are changing and Sirius is now a place where voices are rising up, so I'll respect yours and listen, and give you my words in return.
"All it took was one child to be injured and the elite of the socially protected, and now you place the entire movement of another people's liberation into disgrace, you say that we must never cross that line no matter the desperation of our cause. Yet the state systems considers such harm a necessity of control, and other parties consider them a tool to abuse for their own goals. I have participated in attacks against civilian infrastructure, I have unfortunately had a number of non-combatant deaths under my name, even before the Bundschuh. You talk as if I don't care for the child hurt in the attack, but the change we've been fighting for over the past decade has cost the lives of more children than just one. That doesn't mean we don't try our best to minimize it happening.
"You're correct in saying that the Dragons are not like us. Unless you have an in-depth understanding of their culture and social structures, as well as the decency to actually obtain both tactical intelligence and media that hasn't been manipulated by an elite authoritarian minority, then I would suggest that you hold off on Macro-Political action that could endanger the rest of the Bundschuh.
"You bring up the child as if they were the primary target. I spoke to the Blood Dragons myself to inquire about their tactical decisions, and the child was not the intended target, Junpei Katsuherabo was. An elite empowering the Hanazono party of Kusari's militaristic far-right administration that spreads the message through a deep public association with Neo-Shinto Buddhism. The Nezumi-45 cell that carried out this attack have their own motivations, including a struggle against religious oppression, as the Katsuherabo family are able to corrupt spirituality to twist it to service in favor of the state. Sora Kobayashi and I have spoken of our wishes for the girl to recover, but we have understood this fight longer than you could believe.
"We consider as many possibilities as we can, but resistance groups are already on the back foot and have limited opportunities, and the unexpected arrival of the child at the site, as well as the increased chance of the ongoing operation being discovered by security guards sealed their fates. It is likely the Nezumi-45 agents would have been made examples of if they hesitated, facing quick and summary executions. If you really want to ask them though you can ask them, they're all in a morgue on New Tokyo though. so don't expect an answer from them.
"Don't tell me now that you're willing to slaughter the brothers and sisters of our revolution over this. If that is how easy it is to claim moral superiority, then I should be putting a child on every single one of our combat ships to force the military to hesitate unless they ensure that we can sway opinions in favor of our struggles, even if it would seem counter-intuitive to our tenets. Authoritarians would not hesitate to do so, they have the power to plant industries around civilian population centers, hold media coverage to cherry-pick our faults, and amplify that over the messages of our genuine revolution.
"This is going to be a hard question, but do you think that child, with all the injustice and inequality that their powerful families thrive and feed from, would have turned out any better than their parents, once they would have came of age, if you let them fester in that corrupt lifestyle? Do you think we should stop our fight against a hierarchy, one that ensures that hundreds of thousands of children are born into a broken Sirius, that has sealed them into a life of unnecessary plight at the whims of these corporations. They starve, they live through poverty, through conditions that leave them accepting life as a cog in a machine rather than an experience that is worthwhile, because the elites and authoritarians consider that a barrier to their power. They can raise their child without even needing to acknowledge the oppression they nurture them on, the Katsuherabo family already have the support and assets to persist despite this new hurdle in life, yet the grassroots working class that we support in these trying times barely have anything but their children. You, had been left with nothing on the streets of Liberty..."
"I think of the common people every day, I think of our collective future every day, Anarcho-Platformism has enhanced my ability to do so. One child is a tragedy in the moment, but the right to life no longer stands in social rules established by House-backed powers. If you can't stomach what we have done to ensure societal change, the opposition we face won't hesitate to use it against you. You weren't here during our formation, but we struck out against three envoys from the Imperial families and corporate advisors, the Maquis finished the job later on, and in our first public offensive we struck a blow to the confidence between authoritarians. The Kaiser had to gave out a disastrous, impromptu speech as a result. Stuttgart's farmers saw through the facade of the Kaiser in that moment, as he tried to replace the already disenfranchised Stuttgart farmers produce with cheap Gallic imports.
"I have to plan on scales larger than you fathom. The Bundschuh need that edge in an ever evolving Sirius to survive and thrive. I know your position to all this exposure can be terrifying, but we are terrorists, and sometimes we resort to tactics like these to make the injustices that our enemies force upon the common people known.
"We are not seeing disunity, we are empowering collective social change to what is acceptable with scientific truth, all without the need for a flag or ideological identity to define our being, or feel that such an identity threatens our understanding of self-determination.
"If you are unwilling to participate within the Platform paramilitary because the mere possibility that children may be involved, even if those circumstances only arise during any ongoing operation... Then resign. If you're willing to burn political allies or stall operations, then you're a liability to offensives located within civilian population centers.
"But most of all, how dare you consider my silence and work on the matter as comfortable, ask your companion, ask Revenant, even Viper if you have the guile. You need not remind me of what my sentence in the Damnatio Memoriae is for. Or do I need to drag you into the desensitizing nature that we've been engineered for...?
"I do not take the use of the 'Burn' lightly, I hope you know what that truly entails in Thuringian levels of mission requirements. You can stay, if you're willing to listen to the collective action of the paramilitary... And maybe open your eyes, to see how far our opponents are willing to go."
"Carry on."
