A war that they casused. It is there own dam fault that there decendents have to live like this. The Geth are diffrent. The Geth never die and still remember the war. The Geth want peace, but if they must they will fight back.
The quarians lashed out against what they thought were simply unshackled AIs....the geth committed genocide. It could be argued that the quarians started it. But they were met with the merciless, remorseless killing of most of their population. 300 years later they're still stuck without a home.
Can you really say they deserve that?
Geth did't cause Genocide, the Quarians attemped Genocide. The Geth protected them self. The Geth pushed them back.
They did more than push the quarians back. Killing billions upon billions is far more more than pushing them back. No population would have that many soldiers...we have to assume that a lot of civilians died.
And it wasn't genocide from the quarian point of view. It was disabling some dangerously self-aware machines. Machines they built not to be sentient but to be servants. They thought they knew what the geth were and they were wrong. And they paid far too large a price for that mistake.
The Quarians paid the price form aking a mistake. They know never to do that again. My topic still stands, if there is no choice for peace and you have to pick a side, would you realy pick the Quarians, knowing that they caused the whole mess, and that even with the option for peavem they won't take it? Thats what I was getting and if I have to choose I would pick the Geth.
My argument stands that the mistake was unwitting, understandable, and the price was many millions of times too high.
I really want peace between the quarians and geth. But if there isn't a choice for peace, I would stand by the quarians without hesitation.
The tides of the thread are turning...I'm about done with this argument, as it seems to be getting us nowhere.
