'KILL OR BE KILLED'
There is no longer form to what we see, there is only death, and we are becoming consumed by it.
Zion is exhibiting the compassion of a ruthless dictator and the tolerance of something much worse. I am still a Zionist, yet I for example am being treated as an enemy by those who called themselves friends no more than a week ago. My resolve is being tested more than I imagined. This is the preliminary period where emotions are high, and tensions are mounting. I understand this and yet I am cursed with unease regarding what is to come.

Please permit me to ponder, with nothing more than sincere curiosity: How does it benefit Zion to look upon the machines as lowly adversaries? Are our children better off because our actions cause them all to grow up as soldiers? How do you hope to accomplish peace, by advocating violence? Certain individuals are gathering in packs to hunt for Machines with mindless glee, revelling in the sense of exaltation they derive from a fresh kill. These members of the Zion family are behaving as rabid wolves, sharpened teeth dripping with anticipatory saliva and the blood of the last hunt. This is not what drives us, what makes us human. There is no compassion in butchering another for your own self-affirmation and in some cases, your own fun. Regarding the continuing attacks on myself, I want to remind those who persist that the war is not here, there is no blood within me worth shedding. Consider your actions, and how they reverberate down to those around you. Your children don’t deserve to be soldiers, and they shouldn’t be exposed to what it is to be brutal and ruthless. Unification is never easy, and you aren’t making the path easier to tread.

Occam’s razor
Zion is shifting, but not evolving. We are enslaving ourselves in our lack of forethought, without considering the means which are abused to an often frivolous end. We are bound by our own suppression of free-thinking, in favour of another kill. These actions are lacking in the basic principles of the human consciousness, the very essence of what defines us. The emotions we feel, the synapses that fire to indicate happiness, love, fear, and pride are all coming under scrutiny and having their integrity threatened.
Gathering armies to search and destroy anything that isn’t human is rife. No free will is exercised to autonomously compose a moralistic choice, or ponder even the slightest notion of mercy. Sounds an awful like the programmed actions of a machine to me…

My goal remains constant, unflinching in the face of this early adversity. It is in all of our best interests to unite, to find an alternative source of power, and enjoy The Matrix as the playground of dreams it is. The Machines are not without their flaws, individuals within their ranks share the same blood lust as others. This is where the work is to be done, bridges built, unions formed.
Do not oppose this goal. Remember your own.
There is much to do…
