@matrix It's all plausible. We don't get any backstory on stormtroopers. They are just meant to show up and die. They are literal clones in this case! lol

@rasterman
I'm pretty sure that they are just clones. But even if it was true, it doesn't justify the empire.

@matrix Well, sure. Given what we do know, one single guy with a galaxy brain masterminded the whole thing and he's, we are told, pure evil.

But for a different take, check out this video defending the empire!

It keeps going back and forth from reasonable points to obvious satire.
@matrix I mean, it's not hard to imagine humans as human. But the lore has been kinda fucky recently so... it could go in any direction. From Clones to child soldiers, who fucking knows what Stormtroopers actually are.

This also reminds me of the scene in Band of Brothers where an American soldier meets a friend of his fighting on the German side after said German was captured. They had a nice chat.
@matrix Absurd. The Emperor's Royal Guard would never accept anyone with a criminal record.
