Hello!
   This was supposed to be an answer to Kysely's article here but it got way too big to fit in the comments box, furthermore this was supposed to have been published 15h ago, but a bug regarding the publishing of the article delayed that until I could get answers from the mods, at long last here it comes!

                                            

As expected, Kysely's memoirs are deeply biased, it's easy to talk as if we're alwasy the naive innocent soul and everyone in the world is just betraying and deceiving us. But there's a good reason why your plans kept failing: your ego and arrogancy. I am yet to meet a player as arrogant as you! And anyone who reads your article can see it under you playing the victim card, I will focus on the topics I am most familiar with so here are some examples:

- Starting by the first "desinformation", Nowe isn't really the leader of our group nor "guilty" of any of those actions, Nowe has been mostly afk since release and we Red Turbans have long since adapted to this reality and have been operating without issues. You call "Nowe" your biggest fan yet when I extended my hand to you for cooperation in China this is how you kept talking about Nowe without him being even present (these screenshots are from even before I won the race for CP of China and any official interaction between the groups even began):


Maybe you are Nowe's biggest fan, Kysely, can't get him out of your head even though he's not even playing.


- 2nd point, Genocidio didn't "leave" "Nowe's group" (RT), although I can see why you'd think that, there was a falling out with Geno and a member of Red Turbans but he kept participating in the group till the end, working on our factories and receiving supplies from us, I've chatted with him since that incident and our relations are as good as they were before as an example, this reveals a poor understanding of the events that unfolded and a fast jump to conclusions, which might serve as some form of foreshadowing for the next topic...

- 3rd point, China's cooperation didn't break because we spoiled plans, China's cooperation broke from the moment you managed to disgust almost everyone on our team with your arrogancy and condescending attitude! People who didn't know you prior to coming to China saying they'd rather leave the country than play with you, a good example of this is that before my presidency of China where I had full power over the government, I had already signalled to you my intention for cooperating, since cooperation was our goal from the beginning (as we didn't know another team was going to china, a plan we had since the first days of beta) and after I won the race for CP I did exactly that, reaching out to you for cooperation yet you reacted to that with your usual arrogance. Nowe and you didn't see eye to eye from the very beginning but the majority of our teams had no previous issues and could have cooperated easily (which did even happen for a short bit, as I still have a good relation with adriias to this day for example) yet after days of dealing with you and your demands, your attitude got the best of both me and others in RT, and we swiftly decided there was no future with you guys.
You say it yourself "due to congress stalemate" showing how you only accepted cooperation out of necessity.
Here are some screenshots of how you treated us when I reached out to you, not any different from your usual behaviour till the very last day:



- 4th and last point, it is wild to accuse Iran of being "greedy" and invading everyone,  when that was your intention all along Kysely, from the early days you wanted to attack most people around China and saw other countries as either food or allies of necessity, one of the things that made us realise we were on the wrong side of things was when Shayan kept being respectful to us and offering to make a deal even though we were harsh on them and he kept this posture the whole time, you were the exact opposite. If Iran is a greedy country then what do you call this?

                                                 

Heck, I even got people from ur team private messaging me apologizing for ur behaviour, you should be ashamed of that. In the communities I've been around so far, people do not have a positive opinion of you Kysely, so maybe look at yourself when asking why things go wrong and people keep abandoning/betraying you.

TL;DR: Most of Kysely's article can be summed up as "due to my arrogance, this this and that happened". 

Written by Farsen, as an answer to the offenses and desinformation directed at people who are not here to defend themselves, RT at large and our host country Iran. On our next post we'll talk about the status update of being in Iran!
