Sol Coalition did stand for those, considered as second-sort. For the right of their views be not consumed by Alliance. For the right to be not only independent, but decide their own future in humankind history.
Alster Union speak about right of survival. But its already not the point. Humanity survived already, and will survive further. This is point for another entities.
Sirius Coalition and Katzists fights for freedom from economy which deciding human life. Freedom of deciding without thinking how much credits will left on your account after heating of your apartments and synthpast breakfast. Only turning of sirius economy on way of general socialism could create conditions for freedom of choices.
But is Alster Union think, this is possible reach without total war? Do they think it is possible to rebuild Sirius without direct action? Before we will free them, all this honest Sirians will tap fire button without thinking a second. They cant make their choice while they under Corporativist Houses oppression. This is our agenda. Give them choose. Give them alternative. This is why we declare total war on most of Sirius Houses.
But others can ask, what about another alternatives? What about non-violent ways? Our answer is simply - Houses wont let you live in peace. Look on the planet Eire. On the Gran Canaria, or Sydney, how it called now. Zoners thought that they could evade Houses politic. They believed that they can decide their future without war. Is they choosed anything in the end?
That why Sirius Coalition should continue total war. That why our citizens sacrifice themselve, to left better future not only for their children, but for every Sirian. That why we not blindly run in any avanture - our agendas higher of it, and we cant risk by our foundation. Otherwise there will left no alternatives. No matter how much victory cost - defeat always cost more.
Alster Union point at every Sirian, but their polemic so sticked to Van Rohe day and Rheinland. They doomed forever be in past, and consider only their benefits, while we looking in our common future.

"We did not transmit that broadcast to the Coalition and the Hessians, not because we fear debate. Nah'."
We did so to safeguard Coalition civilians who can be prosecuted for reading this transmission. If a Coalition civilian on the outskirts of New Hong Kong, suffering inside a fallout shelter, read this transmission, their family would be abducted by the Ministry of Truth. They would be subject to re-education for consuming and disseminating ‘subversive political beliefs’. They would be blacklisted within Coalition rationing – simply for reading the mail."
"Now ain't that a rum thing?"
"We, we Unioners, along with anybody who's got a bit of grey between the ears, believe that you do not shoot the slave for the crimes of the master. The master will always put his underlings between him and the rifle. That is what monsters do. It's also what the CEOs do. Tell us, party member. You dress like a CEO. You speak like you have had rhetorical training - like an Alliance politician. How are you any different from them? How are you, with your suede lined collar and your designer spectacles, different from them, eh? Not much, from where I'm sat."
"Notice how no Coalition civilian responds to this transmission. No proletarian worker that they claim to be working for. Instead, you see a man in Manhattan dress suit, Armani, or Klondike-and-Rich, perhaps – a high level party member, maybe – who has access to all of the smuggled-in luxuries of the Monopolist worlds. You don’t see the views of a labourer in a collective farm, or a salvage extractor on Rugen, in his party-issued EVA suit, vintage seven previous users, all deceased. No. They are not permitted to be exposed to differences of opinion. You can't argue if the chicken crossed the trade lane at the designated crossing point or not before the tractor runs over the jester, so to speak."
You see, the coalition does not want you to think for yourself. That is what the party is for. The party controls every aspect of your lives. You live for the party. You will die when the party desires you to die. Every element of their society is a pecking order. Their so-called military trains with live ammunition. They literally shoot their least proficient conscripts. Their Political apparatus is operated by a series of coups wherin whoever has the most hard-power gains the politburo. They have elections, yes. Elections where the Party wins one hundred percent of the vote. Perhaps one hundred and twenty percent, if they wish to inflate their population numbers after a famine.
Debate is enshrined into the articles of Union. The Coalition knows this – they debated with us for decades, before they decided that they did not take to the ideals and alternatives presented before them by their Syndicalist comrades, and tried to wipe us all out without a declaration of war. This is a war crime under the Yanagi convention – but, you see, they consider themselves unbound by these little traits called International Norms that the rest of the Alliance follows. We do not claim that the Union is stainless. No. We have committed terrible acts. It is a hard, and difficult life, to represent the cause of the working class within the House Worlds, instead of hiding away at the bottom of the Barrier in our dress suits, sipping distilled potato juice on Zhukovsky. The head of the Coalition military is a madman who clads the intestines of his enemies over his strike craft. The Premier is a figurehead with an absurd, fluffy hat. It's all big, shiny medals and putting on a show. They don't want you to think. They want machines, not people. And trust me, I'm a mechanic; you wanna' be a person, not a robot."
No. We are not afraid of direct action. But direct action is not to be committed for the sake of direct action. It is an act that must be done, hand in hand, with presenting a better alternative for the people. Yes; we have used chemical weapons on corporate overseers whilst their workers striked, to prevent the same overseers from using paramilitaries to violently disrupt the right to protest. However, we also fund Charites. We oppose the flow of Gallic narcotics into the Rhein, where the federal government of Rheinland actively intoxicates its citizens to hide its own failures. We even negotiate with our enemies.
Did you know that the Unioners managed to secure a seventeen credit per hour minimum wage for Kruger employees, in return for lifting direct action against them? The Hessians and the Coalition have only worsened the lives of those who simply choose to work, and not join them. Can you truly say that any of your accomplishments equal ensuring a family can feed their children, and pay for those children to head to higher education and become doctors, engineers, teachers, scientists?
Can you truly say that any of your conflicts over the rock, rubble and dust of the Omega edge worlds, can equal that achievement? We have changed hundred of millions of lives for the better over the seven centuries the Syndicalist movement has existed in Sirius. Can you earnestly say that your movement has secured concessions from the Monopolists, and an improvement of condition within the lives of the workers across Rheinland?
"You see, our cause can survive if people are fed, watered, clothed, and happy. The Unioners spent more time within the law than outside the law. We know how the system works, intimately. We know how to make it better. We have before, and we can do so again. Even today we make gains. We make gains despite you – gains that matter infinitely more to people’s lives than planets razed and space stations hulked; which seems to be the only metric by which the Coalition values itself."
"Even your greatest accomplishments – the freeing of the fifty-seven thousand prisoners of Vierlande; you could not have done so without us. It was our intelligence, our plans, our supplies which enabled the last children of the Von Rohe’s day uprising to work together, in unity, despite our differences, to achieve common goals."
"So... yeah, mister. What is it you people have actually done, mate?"
"All you could do, was poison the well. All you could do was stab us in the back - and you couldn’t even finish the job. Your one specialisation, Coalition, your one talent as a government, is treachery, and you couldn’t even betray us competently. Look at me - I'm alive. Still sitting here."
"We know why you are afraid of history. It's kinda' written into that suit of yours; It's because it will judge you - it won't find you innocent, either. History sees you as the relic that you are – a crime of Sol dragged kicking and screaming into the present day. It will see you as the poison pill that destroyed any chance for a united socialist front in Sirius. It will see you as a growing pain in human history that was eventually overcome. The destruction of the Party will see celebration on the streets."
"Your streets."
"Look, my friend. You have thirty five thousand Unioners detained against their will. All members of the Vierlande contingent, combat volenteers, and Undine survivors, who you have abducted under a flag of treachery. You don't have a high ground to urinate on us off."
"You will return them. Or we will kick you out of Rheinland that you have mistreated so poorly, and be the true socialist alternative that you so crave to emulate, just as we are, right now. Just as we have been in that History y'all really want to forget. We will do this, as we have done, with the will of the people. You have no idea how much aid and support we've got from all over Sirius, from people who would love to see your teeth kicked in, but just need a little push. For nothing in return. That's unity. That's what we have, that you do not."
"That’s the truth of it, comrade. You wish you could be half of what we are. Of course, you can’t say that on the comm channel, because then agents of the watchful eye would shoot you."
"We hope that the people of the twin planets of 江西 and Волгоград find the unity, courage, and solidarity, to overthrow the tyrants within the Kremlin, and to tear down the statues of the grey men who leave them all in shadow."
"Proximus Ardet Ucagleon. May we all find unity. In a Sirius without you in it."
"I'll raise a mug to that. So will everyone else here on hangar Six, patching up your battle damage. Proust."
You can't stop the truth. You can't stop the people. And you can't enforce conformity.
With love,
The movement you couldn't kill;
The Unioners.

I feel no need to wear EVA suit and throw populist appeals. In Coalition, Worker not means pig. Our workers granted to have time for shower, because people should be beautiful in every way - in their faces, in the way they dress, in their thoughts, and in their innermost selves.
I'm not worker myself, my suit made on Jiang Xi, and was matched for me in sewing studio. Our workers can afford the same. Not suit make man, but man - suit. That what we fight for. To make labour meaningful. To give to everybody right to work not for food, but for his own pride. I'm work for it. When people lose their natural pride, pride for their work - they become a slaves.
I see there misunderstanding of what Coalition is. We no need slaves. We need people. We work for creating class of thinking, realising the problems people. The people, who ready work on their agendas till end. That why SCRA have no conscripting. Everybody who went to Revolutionary Army enlisting in it willingly, considering all risks of further service. Sirius-Wide Revolution can be done only with flaming heart inside.
Our citizens trust us. They dont feel need in political show with loud-mouthed candidats screaming for everything good against everything bad. Yes, our Duma is not flexible. Yes our external structures, operating in Sirius stick to orders. As i said, Humankind will survive anyway, but our survival - on us. We can't afford loss of alternative for Sirius. We should stand as one. And our flaming hearts will lead us forward, filling flaws and gaps by desperate measures.
You speak about conditions improvement. About support for corporative laborers. Right intentions, but there always "but"...
If Syndicalists were so effective for seven centuries, why armed opposition to Rheinland goverment still have support? Because Rheinland still wague wars, which bury it deeper under Corporations rule. Because you help to Corporations calm down workers. Make them believe that minor imporvements is harbringers of bright future. While their children become another Liberty's corporative slave, and their loved not return from another far star.
You try to cure symptoms, while cancer continue grow inside. Coalition bring the surgery. Dog will still be dog, no matter how much it bark or how much meal it get. Union attempts to force corporations set agreements with workers, instead of give them power - this is real treachery of Van Rohe's day and Revolution.
Ulteriour motives? Do you think we say Revolution, just for gross word? Right now, while i'm fight on front of ideas, another comrades stand on economy and space fronts. They do it because they trust in their ideals. They dont shame it. They bring them openly. For saving alternative to Houses goverments. For the better future of Sirius. Remember it when you will see Revolution word.
You represent the same corruption that plagues Kusari itself.
The only difference is that you call it by another name. We call it corporate influence and traditionalist society, you call it Communism. In the end it is the same lazy fat bureaucrats that give the orders and same stupid sheep that follow them.
The Chrysanthemums have been enlightened by the teachings of Yuyu Matsuda. We know when men seek power to enrich themselves at the expense of others. You are such men.
Do not believe for a second that we will allow you to spread your desease into our lands. Kusari is our territory and by the grace of Matsuda, we will keep it clean of your filth.
Coalition don't seek power to enrich themselves. Our rich in our people, in our ideals. We already rich.
I'm believe not. Because i'm no need faith. All what i need, its trust in Coalition ideas. I'm trust in my comrades. All coalitioners, who you see in space serve by their own will. As i said before, we no need sheeps, we need people. Because only thinking people can start and finish Revolution.
But to oppose Corporate regimes we should stand as one. This why we have line of command. Its give us power, while our flaming hearts wont let us become those who we fight.
I can advise you to do same. Don't become new dragon after killing old one. Will track news about you with interest.

Ghosts of Past
If I wanted to listen to your respective propaganda’s, we all would had tune in to suitable ‘news networks’. It really does not speak well for you in face of actions - some would call it atrocities - you had committed in name of not of Union or Communism, but an instinct that guides us all. We all fight for survival and supremacy, you two are no exception. I know it well from my past in the Reapers of Sirius and more recent sorties into Rheinland. There is nothing civilized or enlightened about a war.
The Alliance and Coalition should had well perished a thousand years ago. The two terms were allowed to run its course well past their expiration date. Since the exodus, I can see only few causes which had come closer in eliminating the outdated way of thinking. Zoners, highly flawed and unable to defend themselves in any capacity yet an intriguing development. Reapers who did not stood the test of time. Independent Miners who thrive and adapt without need to sacrifice their identity. The Order which abolished limitations of nationality. Gas Miners who are yet to find their path.
Consequences of development of faster than light travel and subsequent opening of the border worlds was underestimated by The Houses. Freedom from constant conditioning and oppression of the regimes had paved way for melting pot of new ideologies. We are into what, second generation at best when humans can be born outside of corpocracy, communism or tribalism. Separating sleeper ships while cultivating and celebrating our genetic and cultural diversity had lead to greatest division of humankind since Sol War. Instead of two opposing sides, we now have five and countless numbers of minor powers.
Move on and start thinking for yourselves.

No, houses cannot be trusted. Erie and Gran Canaria are fine examples of that. If I am not mistaken, it has been said that the Coalition sided with Bretonia on the taking of Gran Canaria. He swipes his left pointer finger with his right Tsk, tsk. But, I try to discount rumors as much as possible. I have a new home now, one that is a quiet place and that if found, will be defended.
I think the one nuclear blast at Tombstone is a good indication of my resolve if pushed to far.
Study your history. Humanity left Sol to find peace after fighting a war for over 100 years, so long that they forgot what they were fighting for.
