"Every citizen in our world is cared for, provided for. Everyone has enough to have whatever they desire. Our society itself, barring the attacks, is very stable, with low crime rate, skilled police forces, and a high rate of criminal rehabilitation. There is no political unrest, not because it's oppressed or because we limit freedom of speech like some backwards worlds do, but because our society is that idyllic to live in. It is only this one specific terrorist group that takes issue with how Galilean society is run: The CLF."
He was trying to impress on the fact that it was joy to live here and how bizarre their actions were.
Pictures immediately popped onto the screen of various terrorist attacks, of EVS workers helping the injured with advanced technology, of children being carried off in stretchers.
"Our society is run through the mass labor of clones. Programmed with only the most basic intelligence required for their clone caste's job requirements. These clones have a limited lifespan and are quite content to do their work until they expire. Marked by a caste mark that allows us to track and identify them, they are biological machines, in a sense, and programmed to be nothing more. Clones live interspersed throughout our society and are usually quite harmless as they go about their life's duties."
A particular attack rose up on the screen of the Clone Processing Center in the capital.
"Ten years back, a scientist by the name of John Savage started a radical group called Black Zero that claimed that despite their programming and their biology that clones were sentients that deserved freedom. He managed to obtain a position in the Capital Clone Processing Center, orchestrated an outside attack as a distraction, and during the chaos, managed to upload some of his memories to the Mother Brain Computers, the ones responsible for the programming of all clones. These computers are as nearly old as the Galilean Republic, and so complex as to be nearly organic in the nature of their programming. The memories were removed as best as our genegineers were able to remove them, but only way to remove these memories from the system permanently would be to rebuild them from scratch, which would be akin to reinventing the computer itself. That's the kind of undertaking it would be, and it would take us years to do it. We don't have years, given the nature of the attacks."
