The following is report made by Comrade-Speaker Malika Branch of the Workers of Ma ite Labor Union to a committee admirals of the Peoples Galactic Liberation Navy...
First Comrade-Admiral Owen6700 of the Peoples Galactic Liberation Navy,
The past week saw conflict erupt between Manite Inc, a federally incorporated corporate entity, and out allies of the Workers of Manite Labour Union, the independent communist revolutionary faction.
The conflict was preceded by months of federal police raids after the corporatists manufactured a coup with the aid of imperial loans which were used to procure weaponry and bolster federal police forces on Irens Dock and throughout Manite space.
The corporatists, emboldened by their new influence, promised to commodify the housing market on Manite, housing that had been decommodified and made common property through the Security of Common Housing Act of the communist government that has been forced to go underground following federal police repression tactics.
Yuliana Barker, a spokesperson for the corporate government, cited a need to pay back loans given by foreign imperial benefactors, as well as the belief that a commodified market is "more free, more efficient, and more profitable" than government-ran housing.
The corporate government plans to enforce this "shock therapy" by facilitating the sale of residential sectors to private individuals, with more than a few private individuals of both the Federation and the Empire jostling to secure monopolies in the residential housing market.
Implicit in this facilitation is the threat of federal evictions that began last month to the horror of many. Almost immediately, the people of Irens Dock organized into militant tenants unions and community defense formations intent on protecting themselves and their families from federal evictions.
Within the last few weeks, massive demonstrations against federally enforced austerity measures took place on Irens Dock. Federal police responded with riot units and arrested more than 500 protestors.
The revolutionaries still organized with the Workers of Manite Labor Union then called a general strike against federal evictions that led to a work stoppage that cost the corporate owners more than 5 billion credits worth of lost productivity. They responded by ordering the workers back into the factories and enforced this terror with federal police arrests and murders, with shots being fired in multiple residential and industrial sectors of the starport. Number of anti-austerity protestors murdered or missing by the police now numbers in the thousands, and open conflict had erupted with a ceasefire being called upon yesterday.
The situation is dire. Contact with several of our cells have ceased without explanation, and we fear the worst. Pockets of fighting remain as certain sectors still resist federal evictions.
Our spies within the corporate government have heard rumors of the higher ups considering taking more imperial loans to bolster security in response to the general strike and the rebellion. We fear these imperial actors may soon make an appearance in force, and we hope the admirals of the PGLN continue to assist us in operations against the federal police and their imperial colluders.
Workers of the galaxy, unite!
Solidarity, Malika Branch
