### Ideology

* Power and order aren't the tenants of freedom. It's questioning the powerful and popular. That gives it meaning.
* We can't be patriots of any country. We have to be a Cerberus that defends democracies and republics from the autocracies and dictatorships easily and quickly built by tragedy.
* Brooks is no fucking Washington. He may have been slave owner, but at least he had the humility and courage to step down from office to prevent a lifetime appointment.
* The Reichstag made Hitler, the Führer of Nazi Germany and mass murderer of WW2. Brooks is doing the same thing he did. Just without the racism.
* There's reason why democracies and republics work even though they're flawed. People have the right to choose without fear or bias. Populism is just the lazy way in.

### Factions

* Eternal Empire, my ass. Those True Assholes are delusional, if they think it's gonna last forever. Look at the Babylonians, Persians, Macedonians, Romans, Mongols, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the French, the Dutch, the Belgians, the Germans, and the British. It doesn't matter if you've learned from their mistakes, time always corrodes an empire.
* Hope our brothers and sisters in Europe are hunting down those Firefly and FNF scum. They'll pay for what they did to Moscow and Stockholm.
* Even though we have Ghosts on our side, the Ghosts at Fort Bragg need our help, if we're completely take down the True Sons.
* Though I don't trust The Division, we should have some agents on our side, so we can piss off Brooks even more.
* Hope the GSA gives the True Sons a run for their money.
* I heard the "Black Fox" herself General Garza is easily outmaneuvering Reeves. That's what you get for using false-ops on innocent people.
* Have you seen the way they train their "First Sons?" Barbaric if you ask me.
* I've heard some people say it's our fault for provoking the True Sons. That we'd all be fine if we just didn't fight back. Fuck that! I've seen what Brooks is capable of. If it weren't for people like us, we'd all be six feet under by now.
* I've faced Praetorians once or twice. Let me tell you, it's not just a title. They're the best of the best, zealous loyal and they see Brooks as more of a God than anything else. Each one was hand-picked by Brooks herself. They're ruthless killers who'd gladly give their lives for their "Eternal Empress". Don't underestimate them if you find yourself fighting them.
* Those Fireflies are complete opposite of the True Sons. Absolute hates anythings to all Western nations, constantly spouses eco-terror, anarcho-communist, and darwinist rhetoric, while committing terrorist attacks. And they treat this like some new age religious cause, about the planet.

### Female

#### Guard Duty

* Hope they assign me to something more entertaining than this.
* Why did I get stuck with guard duty?
* And here's the most boring part of this job.

#### Ideology

* This would happen eventually. The moment a crisis, a disaster or something similar to this happens, people will demand order, security, safety without thinking of the price to pay. I wanna keep people safe without having them worship me like a god.
* People are just people, man. Just because you're popular, doesn't mean you'll always be right. And people will go extremely far to always to stay right & happy. That's populism for you.
* I think a lot of people demand political perfection too much. Sure democracies and republics are flawed and chaotic, but why is an absolute leader better? They have no limitations and would easily have you publicly executed for the most trivial reasons.

#### Factions

* What gave the idea that the True Sons are the true arbiters of humanity's betterment? They've murdered, enslaved, tortured, and forcefully indoctrinated people that said no to them. Doesn't look like they're worthy of the title or role.
* Fucking FNF. Bunch of violent Norwegian SS-like zealots committing terrorist attacks to bring a New World Order. Fuck any New World Order.
* They call GSA troops being used by rich and powerful elite? With no evidence to back up their claims? All lot of cult of personality and propaganda must of have been rotting their brains of those True Sons.
* If you find someone you know who's part of those True Sons, they're long gone. No way to save them. I learned that the hard way. Better off saving yourself.
* True Sons have tried doing peace talks with us. I think they're scared of us. Otherwise they wouldn't try and appease us.
* In my opinion, Brooks' callsign as Destiny is really bad. Like your under this belief that your fate, destiny, and fortune's favorite chosen one. She must have had a big ego as a kid.
* Fireflies aren't worthy to be so called "harbingers or defenders of humanity". They've murdered thousands if not millions of innocent people, just because they keep blaming the west for all the problems in the world. And they claim to be fighting back, they're not fighting back, they're just eating anything and anyone in their path.

## Brief Conversations

### Amateur Rebels

* Sniper: I heard about this other small resistance group that's not with us, idiots tried to take a town that the True Sons planned to make part of theirs's thinking they would be greeted as liberators.
* Thrower: Really? What happen to them?
* Sniper: Got a lot of bricks and stones thrown at them, by the entire town that turned into a mob of zealots, chanting their allegiance to the True Sons. Then the next day, Apache gunships rolled in and managed completely fuck them up.
* Thrower: Ouch.
* Sniper: Yup. Just a reminder you should be careful of any towns not affiliated by the True Sons and don't try and expect a hero's welcome. We go where we're needed the most.
