Absolutely. Bo-katan’s Clear Prejudice Against The Followers Of The Ancient Way Calls Into Question

absolutely. bo-katan’s clear prejudice against the followers of the ancient way calls into question anything she says about them. there’s little to no evidence so far that din’s beliefs are hurting anyone. any time someone says the word “cult” they really just mean “religion i don’t like”.

mandalorians can definitely be compared to different groups of people in our world. “you’re not really mandalorian because you don’t do xyz” is a lot like “you’re not really christian/progressive/muslim/american because you don’t believe xyz”. in reality, there’s no such thing as a “real” or “fake” mandalorian. (now you’ve gotten me thinking about all the parallels between prejudice against mandalorians and prejudice against people in our world... i’ll have to post about that at some point.)

yeah, could be a geographical thing. i think mandalore proper actually is in the outer rim, but i’m not sure how close it is to all the planets din’s been to. the outer rim is a big place.

i don’t think we should be quick to trust anything bo-katan says about the children of the watch.

the main thing i’m suspicious of is her claim that they’re a fringe group. maybe they were in the clone wars era, but they’re clearly the dominant mandalorian faction right now. we know this because literally everyone in the show, not just din, thinks all mandalorians never take off their helmets. that perception wouldn’t be so widespread if the helmet thing were only practiced by a small group of religious zealots. i mean, this is galaxy-wide common knowledge. it’s not just din being sheltered by a cult.

theory: baby yoda's blood is being used to resurrect palpatine

we know the empire is using it for midichlorians

and that the body of palpatine in rise of skywalker is a force-sensitive clone

midichlorians aren't your cells, they're microorganisms, so a clone of palpatine wouldn't end up with midichlorians unless you got them from somewhere

like a force-sensitive baby

maybe they're just using the blood to make force-sensitive stormtroopers or something but that's boring

also why would gideon care so much if it was just for an experimental upgrade

the mandalorian fandom is funny because everyone's horniness level is either zero or a hundred. like there's the x reader folks and then there's the noromo mando folks and there's no in between

the beginning of rots where obi-wan's starfighter gets shot down and he tells anakin to leave him is 10x funnier when you realize that obi-wan commands every single republic ship in that scene. if obi-wan had died right then the republic would've instantly lost the war
