I think we've become upside down david said with great conviction, when we don't want to say that there is a group of individuals out there that are the antithesis of who we are and what we stand for, and yet we want to continue make our way of life self servient, we have a recalcitrance we have a fear we have something that keeps us from saying that theres nothing wrong with us or what we stand for.
David continued to say However... he slightly paused, you could tell he was thinking carefuly on what he is going to say next
we must also understand that we can't simply start a fight with every person who disagrees with us, even though its exactly what any sane person would do, in this god forsaken place. We have our image to preserve and public opinion eventully matters.The division in the zoner population is even greater then it was before, things were alot more different when we had the omicroners, we were united in a common intrest. If we can't have that structure again, we can atleast have a local coalition - the people of baffin and omega-49 don't realize the security measures here at the south and they only think for themselves. The confederation is just another attempt to impose power on what they think to be gulliable uneducated weak minded people and to convince us that there is still order in things.To them david said while his blue eyes flickered down to his chin, we are nothing but sheeps behearded to the final slaugther house.
David has taken a step back to give tobias a room to breath, he was not in a perfect shape to begin with and he didnt want tobias to think he was pushing him too far with his radical ideas. he started walking sideways and waited for a response, at this point - tobias stood behind david.
