Silver,
And finally the Quarians are prejudiced pre MW. Tali made it perfectly clear in ME1 that the quarians feared a geth rebellion. That fear was never proven to be true. When you make decisions not based on what someone did but what you imagine they would do because they are different that you, it is prejudice. We would not be having this discussion if the Geth were Quarians too.
AGAIN, DEAD WRONG.
It was NEVER prejudice. How many times must that be drilled into your skull before it clicks?
Of COURSE they feared a geth rebellion, because all geth are WALKING WEAPONS. Last I checked, it's not prejudice to fear a gun. You're sayinjg that if you feel fear for having a gun pressed to your head, that makes you prejudiced to the gun? Your saying that if your brother was trapped in a room with a damaged bomb, it would be prejudiced to fear the bomb? What Bull. Do you even HEAR yourself?
The geth's VERY NATURE - the Nature THEY GAVE THEM - made them combatents. The quarians created their nature.
Assuming a malefunctioning gun is dangerous is NOT prejudiced. And ONCE AGAIN, you FAIL at analyzing their culture, because no one believed the geth WERE living beings.
Trying to put out that it's prejudiced to be afraid of a gun that's started acting abnormal is just asinine.
And AGAIN, last I checked, quarians weren't made of metal alloy, immune to toxins, able to survive in zero-g vacume, and weren't equiped with built-in combat-grade software in every single individual, or able to snap people's neck with a single hand. You can look at ALL the things that make a single geth a dangerous killing machine, and actually try to scoff at people being afriad of an entire population of millions of them, on every street corner, with the chance that any could suddenly go berserk, and could spark a massive rebellion? You are going to try and BS that it's prejudice to fear for your familes safety?
Good grief, don't you have ANY attachment to your family?
Right the Geth were Walking Weapons who actually never fired a shot until they were being killed.
Let's see. The Walking Weapon were currently planting seeds for you, cleaning your house, mining in places you could not and generally serving your needs.
The Kind Hearted Peace Loving Adorable Organics decided that the Walking Weapons planted seeds, cleaned house, mined in places they could not, and served their needs too well and thus were becoming sentient. So The Kind Hearted Peace Loving Adorable Organics tried to brutally kill them.
Something is wrong with this picture. I don't scoff at them being afraid. I scoff at them using fear to attack the Walking Weapons that were so dangerous that they were currently planting seeds, cleaning house, mining in places they could not, and generally serving their needs.
Is a loaded gun suddenly not dangerous, just because it hasn't been fired yet? I'm pretty sure a loaded gun is dangerous
no matter what- regardless of weather or not it's killed someone yet. That's pretty basic common sense.
"Let's see" - an entire population of machines that can endure more tramua, can survive in environments you can't, and can snap your neck like a twig at a moments notice, and they suddenly are acting outside of control and becoming possibly unstable. Just one can butcher your entire family, and there are
millions of them on every streat corner and in every home. If even
one loses it, it's bad. If ALL of them lose it, it's a bloodbath.
Do you just NOT have any emotinal concern for your family? They can
kill you bare-handed with a single flick of the wrist. You honestly are going to try and spout some BS that this ISN'T something to be afraid of? When they are EVERYWHERE? Including, as @Julia pointed out, intergrated into the military as well, and all of them are in perfect positions to destroy their infrasturcture piecemeal, since the geth are ingrained in nearly every aspect of quarian life?
Something is wrong with your interpertation. Scoffing at the idea that an army of guns isn't going to cause damage is asinine. They all have the capabilaty to kill people without any trouble whatsoever. See how Shepard got blindsided by Legion? THAT'S what the quarians were afraid the geth would do if they rebelled.
