' Wrote:Synth Paste is a revolutionary (I think you know what that word means) product in the food industry. A Synth Foods faction doesn't need to make a deal with your BAF for trade to be present. Maybe you should spend more time studying than arguing.
Absurd. Liberty is where the company originated from, but didn't sugar originate from one part of the world (India?) and now it's all over the globe?
Libertonians being a "concern" to Kusari? Liberty and Kusari... *sigh* ...I don't think I need to make another long post to back up my first word in the previous paragraph.
Sky, Synthpaste is indeed a product of Libertonian origin but has no production presence within Bretonian space. Planet Los Angeles and Stuttgart are, afaik, the only worlds upon which the cellulose plants that comprise synthpaste are actually produced. Kusari's conservative movements, such as the FA, are seeking to repulse the growing tide of the product's popularity within Kusari in the wake of their increasing inability to produce sufficient conventional foodstuffs to be economically competitive.
I'm sure there are plenty of Bretonians who munch on the stuff, it's cheap and preserves nicely, but there's no footing in associating the root of synthpaste in any way with Bretonia. They are, at most, a consumer of the product with their own well established conventional farming communities comprising the bulk of that nation's nutritional needs.
If eating synth is grounds for hostilities, someone better warn the Corsairs that the FA is coming.
