Wayne King-Meiouf : The dark spiral

Professor Wayne King-Meiouf of the University of Proxima

Sea Urchin has issued a warning, i've been told Knobhead is also worried. What exactly is AP up to with his security crack down in the DDS and the rising of the Hood profile beyond the slightly sinister but mostly eccentric image they appeared to have under AP's early reign.

Whisper it (if you are a DDS member - i am not) but AP seems intent on recreating the worst excesses of the Rotarios regime. We have Hoods enforcing discipline brutally, strict controls on communication and propaganda posters all across the DDS. The only difference seems to be AP's face on these posters and not the snarling face of Rotarios "encouraging" the DDS to OBEY, TRUST, BOW!

When AP came to power it seemed the DDS would take on a new path, the New DDS Project would build upon the stability of The Orchid's short reign and bring in the undoubted benefits of a professional focus married to a cool and fair DDS core.

The latter seems to have been swept away in the face of the extra security needed to guard against another PRB attack. The fairness and coolness has gone, instead we have a dark spiral of betrayal, treachery and violence. I really hope AP realised what he is going soon and draws back from the edge. Otherwise the DDS could be descending into a dark place and maybe this time Windscorpion, who has made it clear he does not want to be a part of the DDS anymore except for being an outside contractor, will not be there to save the day.
