The C.I.S are the good guys during the events of the Clone Wars. [Star Wars]

I thank Con and will not counter his claims. First of all my opponent claims that the clones were the most humane thing the Republic could do but this is false given that the Clones were fitted with Chips to make them do absolutely anything Palpatine wanted when he gave them an order. This lead to a clone's innocent death and caused a lot of mental issues with other clones that discovered the truth about the chips. While I am aware both sides were being played by Palpatine it is obvious Palpatine planned to use the Republic and as such had some of the most evil Orders prepared for the Clone Army such as Order 37 an order in which the Clone Army would massacre entire cities in order to draw Jedi out of hiding after Order 66 luckily this order barely saw use. The was a lot of physiological effects on the clones from the war and unlike the Separatist they didn't lose lives of living organism they only lost droids. "When Obi-wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Senator Amidala were caught trespassing on Geonosis, it was because Obi-wan had followed a dangerous bounty hunter, Jango Fett" - Con For the most part this is true but it does not excuse Obi-Wan of spying on the Separatist Leaders if all he was supposed to do was track the Bounty Hunter. If he had simply waited and contacted the council rather than infiltrating the Geonosian Base after all the Jedi believe in Democracy and Diplomacy yet Obi-Wan resorted to spying which led to him being sentenced to Execution and thus the Clone Wars began. "And clones were superior to droids for one sole reason: they weren't droids." - Con This is also false while the Clone were great soldiers the Droids simply would have won the war had it not been lead by Palpatine a direct quote from the Super Tactical Droid Kalani confirms this when he states that by his calculations "Near the end of the war Separatist units vastly outnumbered Republic units, by my calculations the probability of us being defeated was only 23.6% percent" - General Kalani Even Captain Rex quotes how intelligent Kalani is and even Ezra sides with Kalani when he runs a test on the 3 of them stating that he would have defeated them had his droids not malfunctioned from their age. "While the Republic did make a mistake, it is misleading to imply that the Republic knowingly caused famine on undeserving people." - Con While it was a mistake they should have gone back and correcting their mistake but instead still left he planet in famine and drought which is something you think the Republic would do but yet it doesn't simply leaving Kalee to it's sad fate. "My opponent would like you to believe that the Confederacy of Independent Systems rebelled against the Republic because of "injustices" placed upon them by a corrupt government, but this simply is not true" - Con This is a huge lie while the much larger Separatist were in on a bigger plan you cannot deny the injustices the Republic bestowed on Outer-Core systems and the taxes they raised coupled with the unfair treatment of Alien life. While it is true that the bigger Separatist Leaders are corrupt they are not in total control and this is evident by the Clone Wars as during it you can see the Separatist do indeed have their own form of democracy. They have a Parliament which at one stage attempted to negotiate peace but sadly that failed as a a result of Dooku per-longing the war by bombing a Republic Embassy. By simply pointed out the bigger Separatist leaders you ignored the entire Separatist Parliament in which is where almost all of the big decisions are made. As for Slavery just look at the Clone Army and all the psychological effects it left on the clones and the amount of life lost during the Clone Wars. The issue with the Republic is that it's built upon Democracy of a corrupt system which favors core systems over outer systems. Unlike the C.I.S which was founded upon the principals of Equality, Equity and Justice for all species, races and people. While yes some Separatist used Slavery you cannot deny that the Republic would often look the other way when it came to Slavery a good example are most of the Criminal Cartels especially the Hutt Cartels which have a huge slavery ring. The Republic has a full pledged army and yet does not even attempt to put a stop to all the piracy and slavery which noted in one of the comics in recent Disney canon by Vader he makes it clear that Jabba can operate aslong as he does not interrupt the Empire and if he does the Empire would wipe him out. If the Empire could wipe him out why didn't the Republic and why did the Republic help Jabba get his child back? The whole reason the Republic helped Jabba for that particular reason was to become friends with the hutts so they could operate in their territories easier completely disregarding the fact they are helping one of the biggest criminals in the galaxy. It is also worth noting that a lot of Separatist Systems that used Slavery had to resort to using slavery because of the heavy taxes the Republic had put on those systems. The Republic taxed some systems so hard that they had to resort to slavery once joining the C.I.S in hopes of fixing their economy so in the end the Republic is the main cause of slavery in the galaxy.
