Declarations of War’s series on the controversial organization Absolute Order. These episodes feature interviews from AO’s biggest critics, biggest supporters, and a former director examining AO’s rhetoric, recruitment practices, internal culture, and their alliance leadership’s vocal takes on race, gender, and human rights in general.

Episode 305 feat. JB Hitmarker, organizer of a massive effort to document Absolute Order’s internal chats, Discords, and voice comms and channel the resulting public backlash to a campaign to remove them from nullsec. But it’s more than a vendetta; to JB it’s a campaign of education and redemption for the average AO line member. This interview happens as the war is in full swing.

Episode 306 feat Tess Quinn, a director in Absolute Order who recently left after an escalating campaign of bullying, harassment, and misogyny. She describes life in Absolute Order as balanced as she can, including a lot of behind-the-scenes details line members normally wouldn’t be able to see. The REHAB campaign comes to a dramatic climax as AO’s staging Keepstar falls.

Episode 307 feat Sierra Sin, executor of Absolute Order’s second largest ally and coalition partner brings the defender perspective of both the in-game war and the PR campaign against AO and their Providence-based coalition, Red Menace Coalition (RMC). How does a black man leading a powerful alliance feel about and deal with coalition partners that tolerate and/or personally espouse white supremacist views? Meanwhile, The Initiative gets involved in the anti-AO campaign leading to the ultimate resolution of the Rehab War.
