It did. I don't think you'd understand the reasons why the necessity...but it had to be done. It is a heavy burden, but one I must bear. We do what we must, because we can.
It is the real truth. But it is your fault if you can't see who is the side of Order.
Oh, I might like to hear the attempt at justification. Every word you say now sounds more like a play's villain than someone with complex thought behind their action.
Order must be coupled with free will and selection of government, otherwise it is not order, but tyranny.
Believe me, disappointment feels an understatement.
History is written by the victors. Who is a hero and a villain is malleable. No one believes they are the villain in their story, Chiron.
I'm quite sure the people who were letting entire planets starve thought they were heroes too. But I stopped that. But yes, I'm the villain.
People always say that. But most people just want a full belly and a roof over their heads. Better to be full and warm and follow rules, than 'free' and dead.
I shall concede your point about what is malleable. I will only concede that.
Most people is an amazingly broad generalization that destroys all nuance. It also implies a certain thought of looking at others as much lower than oneself and that for leadership is a grave concern.

Then Hux would be glad that this is all off the record lolAnd I'd be disappointed that you would find it evil, but then again, I'm willing to take judgement for things that had to be done.
My loyalties lie with the side that is going to find order out of the chaos.
It's a pity; I enjoyed our conversations.

this is more like prepping for the fallout when it happensBut did it have to be done? And how do you actually live with the weight of being responsible for that many deaths?
...Mm, is that the real truth, or a half-truth?
I did as well. But I believe this a reasonable line in the sand.
