Ep 99 - Were the Jedi the Villains? Ethics of the Clone Wars

The Clone Wars TV show takes the well known stories of the fall of
Anakin and the Jedi and gives them nuance, and moral complexity,
and explores questions with relevance for our own world. What
happens to peacekeepers when they become generals? What is the
moral value of clones, and how were they treated? And what happens
when people fight a war without asking why?

Star Wars fans and former guests Paul Hoppe and Jonah Kellman join
me to dive into these questions and more as we look at the ethical
questions from The Clones Wars TV show.
