    • @AndrewJamesWilliams
      @AndrewJamesWilliams 4 ปีที่แล้ว +95

      The inhibitor chip essentially turned the clones into droids. In the process many went insane - likely screaming inside their own minds from being forced to do what the chips made them do - or at very least were mentally damaged by what the chips did to them. Hence why in Rebels Wolf is quite unstable and prone to bouts of paranoia because the chip damaged his mind.

    As the war went on, most clone battalions adopted a practice of requesting leave of absences and shore leave, especially after a victory. A typical seasoned clone might get three days off or reprieve from a warzone. Many officers were given even greater windows of absence and got to spend time in resort worlds. However, the navy are the ones who get the most time off, since their work is pretty dangerous and morale is important.”

      yeah, but they were doing that because of the Control Chips implanted into their heads, so they were not acting of their own free will or choice. Luckily, Rex was able to fight long enough against the chip's control that he was able to warn Ahsoka, and she was then able to capture him and remove his chip. I am so sad that they were not able to also rescue Cody or Jesse.

    The life of a Clone was never easy, while some did get much better treatment under the right caring Jedi and even Republic Officers, not every Clone was that lucky, and even those under good/kind leaders had some problems. It's like Rex said in season 7, "We Clones have mixed feelings about the war. Some would wish it never happened in the first place, but without it we wouldn't exist."
    And Rex was a very smart Clone, I'd like to believe he and several other Clones under good leadership came to understand that while their life is hard they are very lucky to be under such great leaders who genuinely care for them and give them as much freedom as they can. Sure it wasn't always a good life, but for those lucky units, I'd like to believe the positives outweighed the negatives. Unfortunately, that's not true for all Clones and those under real Karabase of leaders probably had a horrible life and I can only feel true sadness for them. That's why if I was a Clone I'd pick a unit like the 501st, 212th, Wolf Pack, and the like because provided I don't die in battle then I'd have an alright life with great comrades by my side, you know until the Inhibitor Chip practically strips all my freedom from me, but before that, it would be a good life.

    This here is Deborah, my right, and best girl. Then over here is Lucy, she is my other best girl, my lucky left! ;D
    Slick was indeed a rebel, and one of the few clones willing to speak out about slavery. He accused the Jedi of keeping himself and his brothers as slaves, and neither Obi-Wan, nor Anakin said anything to dispute that claim. Neither did Cody or Rex, who were also present. I think the Clone's slavery was no secret to either the clones or the Jedi, but they all felt powerless to do anything about it, so simply put it from their minds. Additionally, for many of the clones, who had known nothing but slavery since the moment of their first breaths, it might have felt difficult to imagine what freedom was actually like, considering they had never known anything but slavery. Not to mention, the Republic was careful to restrict how much contact the Clones had with the outside world, precisely to ensure that the clones did not begin to question their situation. Its really too bad that we never found out what happened to Slick after he was arrested, though its likely that he was simply executed as a traitor.

    I agree that the clones were slaves but I can guarantee that if given the option they would choose the republic over freedom. Even if they were made aware of their true standing and lack of rights they would continue to serve because they understood the pivotal role they played. there have been tons of instances when clones expressed they’re loyalty to the republic and willingness to die for a cause they genuinely believe in. A great example being rex who faced not one but two traitors and still remained unquestioningly loyal. I would note too that towards the end of the war many clones were tired of the fighting and did begin to question the legitimacy of the war but even then they did what they had too up until order 66.

      Order 66 was a contigency they had been bred and raised to be capable of executing, just like any other. We saw very clearly in the show and games how their indoctrination had them majorly be extremely loyal to the Republic: that alone would've been more than enough.

Their skills and life experiences up to that point centered around war and fighting. Sure, some clones had already taken on roles as body guards, wardens, and police officers. But I think allowing clones the option to pick a new profession would be something interesting to explore.

    The ease of which some clones were able to desert the GAR while retaining their armor and weaponry, like Gregor, speaks to a sort of freedom in that the Republic didn't have the resources to personally micromanage everybody, so higher ranked troopers were trusted to be able to manage themselves. The GAR didn't bother looking for a captain of clone commandoes, because it was assumed that if he was alive, he would be trusted to come back himself.

Like if you asked Palpatin doing a press conference, what would happen to the clones if the republic wins the war. Would they have to stay in barracks ... till forever, exept when needed, would they been given a free life but had to come back if needed or used as factory workers ... or somthing in between.
    And again, not what Palpatin planed, but what were the official plans of the republic.

And Gods forbid if you get uniform parades as punishment where you'll parade in work gear, ceremonial gear, PT kit, CBRN kit, literally one after the other and given only minutes to go change.
    Straight up if the clone life sounds "good" to you, join the Army.

    I writing a book about clones who were abducted by a shadow organization connected to the Mauldalorians. It's about clones that didnt fight in the clone wars and were genetically modified to be basically immortal, resistant to death and loyal to an ideal not an individual. They were part of the reason the clone grand army was so expensive, they were given highly specialized equipment and armour, lead by a reprogrammed Assassin Droid and Mauldalorian precursor and a Rogue Sith Kight.
    I know it sounds a bit stupid to call it a book as it's just a fan fiction, but I want to add philosophical questions and reintroduce some of Starwars roots, Dune. I really want to avoid politics and instead focus on the mentality of the clones and the morals they slowly adopt. I also mentioned earlier that the clone will be basically immortal, they can still die but have a tendency to not bleed out or give up after a few blaster shots.
