GALAXY--The Senate is still in session on Naboo, and the news keep trickling out. Outrage washed over the holonet this morning as Senator Hedarial of Byss effectively shrugged his shoulders when the Denon Question was presented to the table--who is responsible for civilians in such operations? A dictatorial, unhinged government, or the Senate. There is certainly a joke in there about the Senate being the former, but I digress.

The holonet is buzzing, with tags #EveryoneMatters and #BornOnTheWrongWorld trending as protests and demonstrations are staged on most developed planets.

"So civilians born on Sith planets deserve the bombs coming only because they were unfortunate enough to be there? Hardly fair."

Meanwhile in Sith space, citizens have taken to demonstrating in squares, holding signs saying things like WHO ARE THE REAL CRIMINALS? and DO NOT EMBARGO in government-mandated protests that have received positive social media attention, with the citizens of the Sith Order painted as defenders against the aggression of the Senate, the New Republic, and the Free Worlds Alliance. This has resulted in a wave of support for the Sith Order from citizens outside of their borders, who view them as the underdog. To be noted, of course, are the effects of a potential embargo on the Sith Order, which would likely eventually weasel its way to consumer goods and basic things, which would result in quality of life for citizens plummeting. The Senate would be, essentially, attempting to run the Sith Order into economic ruin--doubtful chances at best--but that would only mean that their citizens would 100% certainly suffer.

The heat is still rising as Chancellor Emil Ro is to be held accountable for his actions, and the ammunition keeps piling.
