    This seems, in my eyes, to take away blame from Yang and shift it to Morgan. "Noble" man. "Silk". "Give a TOAST". All these seem to mark themselves as a trait of Morgan's psyche.
    I thought this was Domai having flashes of himself before he got braindamaged.


    I think Nwabudike is a sleeper, many people don't see his ruthlessness. While it might not be so blatant as Yang, Morgan's ruthlessness is devious as well as borderline criminal.
    Anyone here ever read Jennifer Government? Compared to John Nike, Nwabudike is a businessman with honesty and integrity.

Spartan Federation would certainly not have guards that are easily overpowered like in the excerpt, but would treat them just as bad. Gaians and police don't go hand by hand - they would surely treat drones better than that, they are freedom loving just as Peecekeepers. Gaians also don't have a strong elite.
      Ah, forgot about the Believers. Yeah, I agree. Probably be the "charitable church" type deal. Spartans, ok I can see your point...would probably want some strong bodies around. Gaians, ok. Probably just as fair to drones as the PK's.

      Miriam friendly to Drones....yeah, I kinda thought that...but I didn't want to say it. She can be pretty brutal ingame tho.

        It should be noted that there are strong hints in Centauri Arrival leading to Morgan as source of Drone faction (man in the silk suit, individual quarters for Domai) but perhaps it was intended this way to intentionally mislead us or to show that elitist societies are a clear enemy to egalitarian Drone society.

          Honestly, I don't see somebody escaping from the Hive without being shot...but then again, I don't see anybody that would have more motivation...
