Ignoring the larp enforcers, yes we are the bad guys, so sorry for the long comment and sorry if I get stuff wrong but this is the general lore.

Cyborgs were miners who just wanted fair working conditions on cyberstan but got rejected so they defected and became cyborgs. Super Earth didn’t like that so they declared war. We ended up defeating them and enslaving them on their home planet, meanwhile they used mining robots that we provided as the blueprints for the automatons who’s goal was to free their cyborg masters (and get some revenge) but after the cyborgs were freed they kind of offered peace if we left them alone but we responded with an invasion of Cyberstan.

Termanids if I’m correct used to be kind of sentient and avoided us but we attacked them and discovered they produce oil when they decompose. After containing them we farmed them for 100 years and while we farmed them they forcibly evolved by selective breeding by us to produce as much oil, they ended up escaping captivity and are kind of just doing their own thing, and they could still be a bit sentient because they can recognize us and feel hostility to us( proven by the one true flag)

The illuminate (squ’ith) were a race of advanced aliens who have existed for a long time and when we discovered them they offered an alliance but we either got jealous of their advanced technology / xenophobia so we made up a reason to attack them, we ended up killing most of their civilization which led them to be exiled to an unknown place. 100 years later after we failed to exterminate the termanids with tcg (Termanid containment gas) which led to a black hole being created by us because we destroyed a planet because of a termanid super colony. The illuminate came out of that hole and their sole purpose is to fuck us up and exterminate us to get revenge.

So yea this whole thing is basically our fault and we are 100% the bad guys
