Hey like.

what the fuck is a Mandalorian war crime, and/or what the hell do they consider a crime against humanity. (against sentience? not really sure how that generalizes in space with aliens, tbh)

Like they use flamethrowers on people, and uuuuh seem to not really give a shit about things like ‘not killing non-combatants’ or ‘not killing medics’ or like, ‘not just wholesale razing somewhere to the ground’, etc, and even the ‘we love kids protect children’ is, mmmmmmm questionable, given the ‘yeah this kid’s 8 we gave him a gun and told him to kill this is good parenting’ sort of stuff.

but also, they do have demagolka, which is from someone who experimented on children and is generalized to be like, A War Criminal, so clearly there’s some things beyond the pale, even for mandos, aka ‘who gives a shit about not causing unnecessary suffering, flamethrower etc look cool’ but. what the fuck is that.

#coats chats #look not looking to initiate Discourse #but also. war crimes mean things. like those are very specific things. #ditto crimes against humantiy #but the mandos (and tbf like everyone else in the gffa BAR THE GODDAMN JEDI) #(that's not what a false surrender is and I swear to god I will staple the meaning of ruse of war to some heads if I have to) #the mandos engage in like. a lot of crimes against humantiy level stuff. and war crimes stuff. #but they HAVE war crimes. but they do what we consider war crimes. #so what are THEIR war crimes?????????????? #you can take a kid to a battlefield and use a flamethrower on a wounded medic but GOD FORBID you....use them in a clinical trial? #(not to make light of horrific medical ethics etc but also like. there's so little specification here. it could be a clinical trial.) #(it's clearly meant to be a vauge unit 731/nazi eperiments sort of thing. but they don't actually say that. so. #given the weird abelisim in some of the mando stuff I've seen. it's plausible. unlikely. but plausible.) #anyway at this point I kind of assume they go much harder form 'you burnt and salted the land and now Even The Conquerors Can't Live Here #Which Is Evil (because we're those people and hey that's Our Stuff Your Stopped Us Having) #but. idk!!
