    Your points on the battle of Geonosis make it easy to see why Cut Lawquane deserted the army for a quiet farm life with a family.

      I could be wrong but wasn't he literally the clone who said "I'm glad these bugs can't aim." Jinxing it and his gunship was shot down?.
      Been a while since i seen his story arc so i could be wrong but i vaguely remember there being somrthing about that incident where at least 1 clone survived that.

      ​@@zombiekillerr9764 "Landing at Point Rain" and "The Deserter" were both in the second season. Funny enough, the Deserter was produced right before the other but was aired 5 weeks later.
      To conclude, Cut was referring to the first battle of Geonosis. He was in a troop transport that was shot down and his squad was wiped out which is why he deserted.

    Honestly, out of all the clone divisions I feel the worst for Plo Koon and his squad.
    Cody probably eventually learned that Obi-Wan survived
    Rex was freed by Ahsoka
    Bly at least gets the peace that Aylaa had a quick and semi painless death
    No one even knows what the heck happened to Shocktee.
    But Plo showed even more care for his men, (I’d argue even more so than Obi-Wan) and he not only had a very brutal death but he was also framed for something his men knew very well he could never do. I believe you can actually see the effects of this on Commander Wolfee in rebels.
    (For those who don’t know Plo Koon was framed as a villain about to blow up a school)

    The one I’m happiest for is Wolff. That man served possibly the greatest Jedi and person to ever live. Plo-Koone was a damn father figure. He was an honorable guardian and steadfast leader to his clones. They didn’t just respect him, they loved that man. Every death and injury in the Wolfpack was met with fierce sadness and regret and a need to hold up the survivors. I think if Plo knew it was coming he would have faced it like a damn man and looked his clones in the eyes and told them it was ok. He would have told them he understands and knows that the force has something else for him now and that he is proud of each and every one of his men. He wouldn’t even fight back.

    5:45 Commander Bacara didn't put his men's safety above all else, he was much more brutal and cynical than Ki Adi Mundi. He disliked Mundi for being a poor commander, not for being too bold and being willing to sacrifice clone lives. I mean, Bacara literally ordered his men to fight super battle droids in hand to hand combat when their weapons malfunctioned.

  • @varundattoo9512
    @varundattoo9512 8 днів тому +6

    So, I never realised that people misunderstand, even hate the idea of the 'Inhibitor chip'. This I would say is a definite indication of your exposure and immersion in fantasy, science and futurism as a whole. I could even go so far to say it's a generational difference that, is also adjacently related to the lack of sentiment towards CGI and animated characters as a whole. But, I digress; the inhibitor chip is literally a microprocessor with programming, just translated from a technological PCB to biological cells. These programmed scripts are non-negotiable and are just waiting for their requirements to be fulfilled. Once activated, the functions or directives associated will be performed.
    I don't think I've ever seen anyone dive into this topic, but the inhibitor chips would have to commandeer areas of the brain to essentially direct active function. When CT Tup executes JD Tiplar, he seemingly cannot remember the action, though is aware of it after the fact. This is actually a very interesting dive, if we could get a medical expert to chime in on what is going on here.

    7:28 The mentor/father/mother figure can also be a clone. I'm currently reading No Prisoners in which Rex kind of sees his troopers as his sons and feels that he has an obligation to protect them and care for them as best as he can. And he also sees Ahsoka as someone that he looks after for especially when Anakin is absent

    Some Jedis could not understand human nature. Like humans, clones are social creatures. Without any parents or mentor figures that they can trust, that trust can be real damaging to their relationship, and Palpatine knew that very well, which was why when the Jedi turned out to be reckless and inexperienced, it gave Palpatine the justification to declare Order 66.

    I know many people do not like the chips, but it does seem more plausible for Palpatine to ensure such a safeguard in the off-chance Jedi would survive if clones either hesitate or disobeyed. It also adds to the tragedy that all the clones were given a false illusion of independence and will of their own. However, majority of the clones never needed the chips either. Clones that were independent as Rex became were likely less that 4% of the entirety of the GAR. For most, they never interacted with the various Jedi they served alongside.

    • @DragonKnightJin
      @DragonKnightJin 6 днів тому

      The chip also held numerous other orders. Such as Order 65. Which was, apparently, that *The Supreme Chancellor* was no longer fit to give commands and was to be arrested. And use of LETHAL FORCE was allowed if they tried to escape.
      As in, Palpatine really built in an order that would send THE ENTIRE CLONE ARMY on HIS ass. Of course, to give Order 65 would require Senate approval, and it's clear from Episode 1 that the Senate literally CANNOT come to a decision within 1-3 business MONTHS. on anything.

    God the Jedi had a massive brain fart when handling this battle as they should have know better then to fight like they did.

    The clone army was a masterful creation by George L. ... He took the conscript armies of his youth and abstracted all of the individual circumstances into a single narrative of involuntary service and sacrifice. The complete loss of agency would be more difficult to communicate if the army was comprised of 100's of recruits with poor or deprived backgrounds. To create an army the size of the GAR would require an enormous amount of exposition, which would still be necessary as empathy was so often central to their arcs.

    I have a head canon theory that Cody changed his armor color to gray purposely in honor of Kenobi similarly to how Wolffe changed his paint job to gray for the fallen 104tg fleet. While even with the inhibitor chips forced the clones to execute the Jedi for treason, I feel the clones deep inside still respected the Jedi even when they were brainwashed to believe the Jedi betrayed them as why clones like Bly made the executions of the Jedi either mercy kills.

    The clones were, in the end, the biggest victims of the Jedi/Sith conflict during this era. They were never given a choice, never given the right to select their own paths until it was too late. Sure, the people tricked by the Separatist leadership and the people tricked by Palpatine's lies were also victims, as were the Jedi raised in an environment that equated serving the Force with serving the Republic. However, it was the clones that never had a chance to make their own choices. Even a padawan could, theoretically at least, leave the Order if they wanted, but a clone was a clone, until they died or became unable to fight.

The clones were a sad chapter of a very corrupt government. The Republic has never been honest or right. Which is why the Sith was so strong for a ridiculous amount of time. And then you have the Mando group which loved war but were great leaders and rewarded excellence plus a clan bond that made the jedi look like fools with egos.

    The Jedi were definitely complacent and/or blinded by the dark side to not see the the growing Separatist movement or the creation of the Clone Army. They basically failed at keeping the Republic at peace.
    Sidious really worked hard to eventually take over the Republic.
    The clone army was the only thing powerful enough to wipe out the Jedi. Millions of clones to destroy only thousands of Jedi. Incredible when you really think about it.

      The retcon gives an actual reason why the clones all mindlessly followed the same order in the exact same way.
      Theyre sleeper agents.
      The inhibitor chip is the antithesis to many of the clone story lines, which is developing individual personalities and decision making skills.
      Georges “they just did that” explanation sucks and makes the clones the 2d cut outs they originally were in the shitty 3rd movie.
      The sequels are only good in retrospect because of the clone wars.
