Villore GÇô A study commissioned by the Senate Committee for Equal Rights has found no evidence for institutional discrimination against those of Minmatar descent. The investigation was conducted following a rising number of claims from Minmatar immigrants that they had faced widespread intolerance in the Federation, particularly in the aftermath of the Broteau Shootings.

GÇ£While the committee discovered incidents of discrimination against individuals of all racial and ethnic backgrounds, including those of Minmatar descent, these cases appeared to be isolated and were swiftly resolved once brought to the attention of authorities,GÇ¥ the report concluded. GÇ£Equality and dignity for all races, religions, genders, sexual orientations, and philosophies is a core ideal of the Federation. The people of the Federation have not deviated from this ideal.GÇ¥

While the majority of the Senate have hailed the report as vindicatory, some have criticized it for faulty methodology. GÇ£The investigation only looked at those incidents which were reported,GÇ¥ said Asbran Eleskar, a junior Minmatar Senator from Sinq Laison. GÇ£Thousands of incidents go unreported every day. If a Minmatar is denied a job over a less qualified Gallente, do they realize this to report it? If a rentor asks a Minmatar for proof of employment, but doesn't for the Intaki, will a complaint be filed? This simplistic study is maybe even more damaging than silence.GÇ¥

Senator Traude Bonailles, a member of the Equal Rights Committee, dismissed the concerns of Senator Eleskar. GÇ£I can assure you the study was comprehensive. We did not simply base our findings on public reports. We were thorough and I am confident in the validity of the study.GÇ¥


((Finally, some lore news again!))

We do, or at least most educated people that are not totally backward in their teachings by the mass media, who depicts the Matar in a less than flattering persona.

Though I digress, you Amarr care even less about them. Some Amarr do not even consider them people.

The core tenets of our society support them a lot more than yours do.

If only because you use sleazy tricks to manipulate them. You know full well the Minmatar people will never be allowed to move up the ladder of success in the Gallente Federation, where as freed Minmatar in the Amarr Empire are already making a name for themselves.

Only one tribe joined you willingly, the Nefantar, who then became the Ammatar. However many of their people left when the Elders attacked and are living amongst their brother and sister Matari as we speak.

((official/unofficial records of the Nefantar and the one for all the Tribes.))

I could dredge up the many names of Holders and the other pious that have earned their freedom from the Book of Records, or find a census of those who govern the Ammatar Mandate. A child of God is a child of God.

And how is numbing your workers with sin and debauchery not sleazy? So what if you give them money. They have to spend every penny they make toiling away for your elite on food and rent, with just enough left over to numb themselves into complacency.

The difference between Amarrian slavery and Gallente slavery is that the Amarr actually free their slaves. The Gallente oligarchy couldn't stand the hit to their bottom line.

So the countless adverts displaying the libertine lifestyles that are so adept at turning a profit isn't actually encouraging those lifestyles? I'm sure the police aren't out there making sure everyone has had their quota of drugs or sex, the mechanisms ensuring compliance are far more insidious.

Few will pass up the vices espoused as fun by Gallente "culture" lest they are called a prude or a teetotaller. Gallente culture is dedicated to pleasure and complacency.

The real Gallente leadership are in control. when was the last time there was any real reform? The corruption and nepotism endemic to democracy are still rampant and the average citizen is still forced to toil for another's gain while being told they are free.

If the Empire has been having greater reforms than your Federation you must at least suspect you are being played in a great farce.

I was speaking of the government, Kesha. Surely the adverts to advertise the vices, certainly. Again, it is up to the person to decide to whether to indulge or not.

The Gallente Federation is famous for allowing such acts, yes. Whether it is "dedicated" to it is up to perception.

All of that was simply rambling. There was no meat in that statement in the slightest; it was the regurgitation of the propaganda that is fed to you.

I find it convenient that you forget that Jacus was elected into office after the war started.

Excuse me?What I said was that his statement:

"The real Gallente leadership are in control. when was the last time there was any real reform? The corruption and nepotism endemic to democracy are still rampant and the average citizen is still forced to toil for another's gain while being told they are free. "

has no merit. It does not, for it is just a rambling paragraph with nothing behind it. You pick and choose the wrongs of our society, which we have done, and our imperfections, which we are, and seem to believe that we personify all of that.

"The Gallente leadership are in control"

Oh, really? They are our leaders after all.

Of course, if you mean advertisement and propaganda, then that is a leap of faith. There is simply no way you could prove that our government controls what we see and tries to influence us on such a scale. If you could, there would be outcry. Outrage.

"when was the last time there was any real reform?"

For what, exactly? Discrimination? There was this investigation, right here. Apparently they are not as widespread as they appear. However, an independent group to research this would be phenomenal, in my opinion.

"The corruption and nepotism endemic to democracy are still rampant and the average citizen is still forced to toil for another's gain while being told they are free."

How do you even come up with this? This statement is but a string of words. They have no merit, no meaning. All just ways to defame our society. Different perspectives lead to different opinions. How you came up with this one, is understandable, for far to a extreme.

And about the propaganda, I have read some of them. The "sermons". They talk about about we server "self-interest" and how we are "selfish". I am also certain that what Kesha brought up, such as the "corruption and nepotism endemic to democracy" is in there somewhere.
