  • How come the issue of droid slavery is never brought up in star wars?

    These machines are obviously sentient, some have emotions-they activley dont want to die-yet they are owned as property-even by the good guys.....

    unless you count C3PO as being a pussie

      Thats debatible, but that aside....

      Some show self preservation-almost all show unquestionable sentience.

        Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
        Then why call him God? - Epicurus

              Because everyone knows that Droids are sub-human scum who deserve their place in life. Obviously its just a fluke the R2-D2 can essentially outsmart Luke Skywalker and appears to express emotions spontaniously...

                  George Lucas is clearly an Anglophobe. Why else would all the head baddies be British?
                  If you look around and think everyone else is an *******, you're the *******.

                    Because they're so good at it?

                      Because Brits can actually act? I wish the good guys were all British, too.

                        Because they are not part of the "force?" There is an explanation of the force in Episode IV that says it is created by "living beings."

                          its a subtle refrence to the revolutionary war.

                          seriously, Brits are good at being bad.

                            'cause none of them crushed the head of his owner because the owner wanted to decomission him in favor of the newer models.

                            that, and they didn't get to set up their own city in the middle east.
