Most people sides with the Geth because they want to play Devil's advocate, they are simply following what the writers want them to thinks.
I really hated the fact that issues of the geth's genocide of the quarian during the mourning war as well as the true geth's inaction against the heretic, who are tiring to bring extintction on EVERY-SINGLE ORGANIC CIVILIZATIONS have never been brought up. The fact you can't even call the geth on the horror they did in the past make it worse . Bioware made the issues annoyingly one sided:
"Ah it's all the Quarian's fault, they attacked first, who cares if the geth killed billions of quarians mostly civilian and noncombatant, and dooming the rest to a slow extinction on the flotilla."
The geth, not the heretic, the true geth exterminated at least 99.97% of an ENTIRE SPECIES, 99.97% even the 2nd World war gemany wasn't as bad as the geth.
The Quarian and the other organics have Very good reason to hate the geth.
To the Quarians sympathizer, I admire your resolve for making decisions based on historical fact, rather than what the writers wanted you to think. You are the true devil's advocate.
To those Quarians haters, and geth fan-boys/girls, I what to ask you a question.
What if, we humans created a race of robots, and tried to exterminated them when they become self aware, but in response they killed 99.97% of humans indiscriminately, young, old, soldier, civilian, everyone. In the end there are only 2.1millions survivors form the original 7 billions, running for their lives, living in execrable condition and cannot even show a simple act of affection to a loved
because it would mean death.
That's what the geth did to the quarians, they committed one of the greatest atrocity in history, and rationalize all this in the name of self-defense, the worse is that Shepard can't even call them on this. this is a severe case of Author Filibuster on bioware's part.
Now I ask you:
Is self-defense a justification for one of the largest mass genocide in history?
Is isolationism a justification for letting a splinter group, commit galactic Apocalypse?
Answer me, I dare you!
