No the Jedi sucked random thoughts Send a noteboard - 21/12/2017 04:18:48 PM

Sorry if you can't see the difference between a society saying all the men must contribute to a common defense and life long slavery as a soldier. Not much I can do for you there.

It can be argued that the draft system is not fairly implemented and the rich and powerful get a pass but a draft is not the same as stealing children and raising them to be warrior slaves and it certainly isn't the same as growing clone people who are modified and conditioned from birth (is it still called birth if you come out of a vat?) to obey without question. Since the Clone Wars is canon we also know that the placed chips in their heads to force compliance and not all of them wanted to fight.

If grown slaves works for soldiers why not other sections of the population? factory workers? Sex trade workers? How long before you have a population of enslaved drones serving a population of elite backed up by an army that never questions and refuses? The best way to avoid having to bow to the will of the people is to remove their will. If the Jedi were truly what they are sold as then they never would have agreed to take part in anything so horrendous and dehumanizing. Isn't that sort of what the Empire was doing and didn't the unethical and poorly thought decisions of the Jedi make it happen?
