The song: is the final countdown~~🎶

My brother: what?!

Me: what?

There are way too many fanfics about Spider-man in Gotham, but there are none about Spider-man in Neo Gotham, and I think it's a shame

Could you debunk the "jedi are slavers/have slave" argument people always seem to bring up in correlation with leading the clones? Thanks in advance ! <3

Of course!!!

Firstly, while the Kaminoans say that the clones were made for the Jedi, they are actually property of the Republic---which means that, since I would agree that they're slaves even if that wasn't GL's intent, the Republic would be considered the slavers, not the Jedi.

"Oh, but Jedi-Enthusiast, the Jedi are still slavers because they're forcing them into battle-" NOPE!

The thing is, even if the Jedi could refuse to fight in the war---which is a very complicated thing, both morally and politically---the Republic would still be sending the clones to fight the Separatists, only this time without the Jedi. And, as we've seen multiple times in TCW, more clones tend to die on missions without the Jedi's help---and that the Jedi are often shown saving their men from situations where they would otherwise die or be injured.

And, as much as I enjoy the trope of "the Jedi have limited experience actually running a war, so they struggle a bit and ask for help so the Jedi and clones get closer" because of the angst and fluff potential, in canon the Jedi are shown to be very good tacticians and they're rarely shown to struggle leading their men.

All of this to say that the Jedi leading the clones actually saves more lives, and that the Jedi not leading them would mean a lot more of them die...and idk about y'all, but I don't think- "more clones should die so the Jedi stay morally pure" -is the gotcha anti-Jedi morons think it is.

Not to mention that, if the Jedi didn't lead them, the job would go to people like Tarkin---y'know the man who criticized the Jedi for not being ruthless enough and caring for their men.

Are the Jedi put in a difficult position by leading the clones? Yes.

Is fighting in the war a morally grey decision? Yes.

But are the Jedi slavers or terrible in any way for doing what they did? Absolutely fucking not.

Forget about vampire Dick Grayson, we need vampire Duke Thomas.

Picture this:

The sun comes out in the morning and all the vampires that were fighting the main character turn to ash, as the vampire leader dies everyone cheers until...

*ominous chuckle*

Duke who looks like a black blob of darkness except his teeth: "bravo!, that was a great spectacle!" *whistles and claps while chuckling*

MC: *pales* "no, that's impossible!"

Duke: *beams* " it is, infact, very possible, my friend, but I thank you, however, for getting rid of this asshole *kicks the vampire leader's ashes*, thanks to you I don't have to kill them myself!" *beams*

MC: "no... no, no, NO!, you should be dead"

Duke: *evil laughter* "did you really, really, think that would kill me, I'm Duke fucking Thomas!, I am The!. Motherfucking!. Signal!, the sun is my bitch!... *his eyes start glowing red* and so will you in a moment"

MC: "kyaaaa!"

He was a politician

Darth Revan: uses mandalorian mask;

Darth Malak: has a replacement jaw that covers part of his face;

Darth Vader: uses life support mask;

Darth Nihilus: uses mask;

Darth Sion: his face is so disfigured you can't tell what his real face was like;

Darth Sidius: his face is so disfigured you can't tell his real face was like, and before that he used deceit to mask himself;

Darth Traya: used lies and betrayal to mask herself and her objective until the end.

Every sith wears a mask to hide their true, hurt and scared self: it represents their lies, the way they refuse to acknowledge themselves and how they hide their "weakness" and shame.

I can't put in words how much I love this detail and how it contrast with the Jedi who always have their faces out in the open.

I'm impressed, I love this and I think more people should know this
