 Every day, we find ourselves confronted with answers, each claiming to be the truth. While most people are content to accept the ‘official’ truth, accepting whatever answer affects their life the least, there are those of us that reject what is easy or comfortable to get to one thing.

My name is Parker Terrell and I’ve spent my life pursuing that one thing.

This is Plain Truth.

Welcome, friends, we have an exciting and informative show for you today, but first, I’d like to introduce a recent addition to the production team over here at Plain Truth. Arlo Theodore was a comm-specialist for Aciedo before he left to join us. Say hello, Arlo.

Arlo Theodore: Hello. Hi.

First of all, Arlo, welcome to the team; we’re all thrilled to have your expertise help our message reach more people.

Arlo Theodore: Glad to be here.

You were at Aciedo for ten years, correct?

Arlo Theodore: Yes, sir. Nine years.

I understand you were on the brink of pretty major promotion before you left.

Arlo Theodore: Well, I mean, it wasn’t definite …

Of course, but it isn’t much of a stretch to say your future at Aciedo was looking pretty bright.

Arlo Theodore: Yes, I suppose.

So what changed? Why walk away from that?

Arlo Theodore: My … my brother Marshall. He’s … he was always kind of an idiot, you know? Always after the coolest new “blank,” it didn’t matter what it was. If people were talking about it, he wanted it, regardless of whether he needed it or not. But he was young … hell, I was a colossal moron when I was his age. Anyway, he just had no control, started running up debts, taking out loans to pay for other loans, whatever. Through all of it he refused to admit how quick he was sinking, he just assumed he was ultimately untouchable, that it would just work out. Well, the Central Core Bank came after him and he freaked. Took a ship and ran.

The CCB then posted a bounty on him.

Arlo Theodore: Yeah … the bounty hunters caught up to him in Ferron and …

They killed him. Even though the bounty was drafted as a capture, public record of the incident stated that your brother attempted to fight them and they were forced to open fire.

Arlo Theodore: That’s a [REDACTED] lie. He wouldn’t have done that.

The two bounty hunters who were involved in the incident were officially cleared of wrongdoing, but, if you ask me, the entire situation seemed to be destined for violence the second the CCB issued the bounty. It put your brother in the same category with murderers and fugitives. I know that’s a fantastical concept to the political puppets over at the Advocacy, but there is a distinction between violent and non-violent offenders.

Arlo Theodore: Marshall was scared. He needed a wake-up call, to learn some financial responsibility, not be hunted down and killed.

People call this a civilization. I ask you, is the sanctioned killing of your brother civilized? A first-time offender who, like you said, was only guilty of being young and getting caught up in the allure of material possessions? It doesn’t sound civilized to me.

Arlo Theodore: It’s savage.

I agree. Now, we’ve tried to reach out to the Governors Council in Ferron to obtain copies of the incident reports, but, here’s a surprise, they’ve been stonewalling us.

Arlo Theodore: Of course, because they know … they know what they did.

I want to thank you for your bravery, Arlo, both in sharing your story with us and for joining us on the show.

Arlo Theodore: You’re welcome. We’ve got to change things.

We will.

Next up, we’re going to take a quick look around at what’s been happening in the UEE and beyond. Specifically, it’s been a week since Senator Lester and her subcommittee began holding public hearings about contract policy. We’re going to take an in-depth look at the transcripts and ask what are they really investigating?

Later on, we’re going to talk to Allan Provo, a community leader from Levski, talking about the independent government that they have over in Delamar, and their homegrown movement to try and convince unrecognized planets to reject the UEE and embrace more independent political systems that cater to their needs.

In the meantime, stay vigilant.

 Jeden Tag sehen wir uns mit Antworten konfrontiert, die behaupten, die Wahrheit zu sein. Während die meisten Menschen damit zufrieden sind, die "offizielle" Wahrheit zu akzeptieren und jede Antwort zu akzeptieren, die ihr Leben am wenigsten beeinflusst, gibt es diejenigen von uns, die ablehnen, was einfach oder bequem ist, um zu einer Sache zu gelangen.

Mein Name ist Parker Terrell und ich habe mein Leben damit verbracht, diese eine Sache zu verfolgen.

Das ist die klare Wahrheit.

Willkommen, Freunde, wir haben heute eine spannende und informative Show für euch, aber zuerst möchte ich euch eine neue Ergänzung des Produktionsteams hier bei Plain Truth vorstellen. Arlo Theodore war ein Comme-Spezialist für Aciedo, bevor er zu uns kam. Sag hallo, Arlo.

Arlo Theodore: Hallo. Hi.

Zuerst einmal, Arlo, willkommen im Team; wir alle sind begeistert, dass Ihre Expertise dazu beiträgt, dass unsere Botschaft mehr Menschen erreicht.

Arlo Theodore: Schön, hier zu sein.

Du warst zehn Jahre lang bei Aciedo, richtig?

Arlo Theodore: Ja, Sir. Neun Jahre.

Ich habe gehört, dass du kurz vor einer ziemlich großen Beförderung stehst, bevor du gegangen bist.

Arlo Theodore: Nun, ich meine, es war noch nicht endgültig....

Natürlich, aber es ist nicht viel Zeit, um zu sagen, dass Ihre Zukunft bei Aciedo ziemlich rosig aussah.

Arlo Theodore: Ja, nehme ich an.

Was hat sich also geändert? Warum davon weglaufen?

Arlo Theodore: Meinen... meinen Bruder Marshall. Er ist.... er war immer so eine Art Idiot, weißt du? Immer nach dem coolsten neuen "Blank", spielte es keine Rolle, was es war. Wenn die Leute darüber sprachen, wollte er es, unabhängig davon, ob er es brauchte oder nicht. Aber er war jung... zur Hölle, ich war ein riesiger Idiot, als ich in seinem Alter war. Wie auch immer, er hatte einfach keine Kontrolle, fing an, Schulden zu machen, nahm Kredite auf, um für andere Kredite zu bezahlen, was auch immer. Bei allem weigerte er sich, zuzugeben, wie schnell er sank, er nahm einfach an, dass er letztlich unantastbar war, dass es einfach funktionieren würde. Nun, die Zentralbank kam hinter ihm her und er flippte aus. Ich nahm ein Schiff und rannte weg.

Die CCB hat dann ein Kopfgeld auf ihn ausgesetzt.

Arlo Theodore: Ja.... die Kopfgeldjäger holten ihn in Ferron ein und....

Sie haben ihn getötet. Obwohl das Bounty als Gefangennahme entworfen wurde, stand in der öffentlichen Aufzeichnung des Vorfalls, dass dein Bruder versucht hat, sie zu bekämpfen, und sie wurden gezwungen, das Feuer zu eröffnen.

Arlo Theodore: Das ist eine Lüge. Das hätte er nicht getan.

Die beiden Kopfgeldjäger, die in den Vorfall verwickelt waren, wurden offiziell von Fehlverhalten befreit, aber wenn Sie mich fragen, schien die gesamte Situation für Gewalt bestimmt zu sein, als die CCB das Kopfgeld ausgab. Es brachte deinen Bruder in die gleiche Kategorie mit Mördern und Flüchtlingen. Ich weiß, dass das ein fantastisches Konzept für die politischen Marionetten drüben in der Advocacy ist, aber es gibt einen Unterschied zwischen gewalttätigen und gewaltfreien Tätern.

Arlo Theodore: Marshall hatte Angst. Er brauchte einen Weckruf, um etwas über die finanzielle Verantwortung zu erfahren, nicht gejagt und getötet zu werden.

Die Leute nennen das eine Zivilisation. Ich frage dich, ist der sanktionierte Mord an deinem Bruder zivilisiert? Ein Ersttäter, der, wie Sie sagten, nur schuldig war, jung zu sein und sich in die Faszination des materiellen Besitzes hineinzuversetzen? Es klingt für mich nicht zivilisiert.

Arlo Theodore: Es ist wild.

Ich stimme zu. Jetzt haben wir versucht, den Governors Council in Ferron zu kontaktieren, um Kopien der Vorfallsberichte zu erhalten, aber, hier ist eine Überraschung, sie haben uns gemauert.

Arlo Theodore: Natürlich, weil sie es wissen.... sie wissen, was sie getan haben.

Ich möchte dir für deinen Mut danken, Arlo, sowohl indem du deine Geschichte mit uns teilst als auch dafür, dass du uns in der Show begleitet hast.

Arlo Theodore: Gern geschehen. Wir müssen die Dinge ändern.

Das werden wir.

Als nächstes werden wir uns kurz umsehen, was in der UEE und darüber hinaus passiert ist. Spezifisch ist es eine Woche gewesen, seit Senator Lester und ihr Unterkomitee anfingen, öffentliche Anhörungen über Vertragspolitik zu halten. Wir werden uns die Transkripte genauer ansehen und fragen, was sie wirklich untersuchen?

Später werden wir mit Allan Provo, einem Gemeindevorsteher aus Levski, über die unabhängige Regierung, die sie in Delamar haben, und ihre eigene Bewegung sprechen, um nicht anerkannte Planeten davon zu überzeugen, die UEE abzulehnen und unabhängigere politische Systeme zu akzeptieren, die ihren Bedürfnissen entsprechen.

Bleiben Sie in der Zwischenzeit wachsam.
