Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
==========
Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world
==========
IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta
==========
Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

But we did see the Stormtroopers at their peak. That was the Clone Wars. During the first few years of the empire, the Stormtrooper army was made almost exclusively of clones. As more regular people were added, their frightening capabilities slowly decreased until, by RotJ, the Empire's army is made entirely of new recruits who promptly get their asses handed to them.
Storm troopers and clone troopers are wholly different armies.
Should I link you to every Star Wars book ever, or can you find them on your own? During most of the early Empire they were the same army. Some clones were in use up to episode IV. The 501st remained as Anakin's particular army the entire time, from the end of EII to the fall of the Empire.
Oh my sweet summer child, the good clones trained the subpar clones from centex 2 that formed that army, they weren’t the original jango clones that were trained by the Kimonions.
The Kamino clones took the roles the Jedi had, the ground troops are a mix of competitor clones not using original DNA, but mainly non-clone recruits. They are whollfully different armies.
Ones literally under the republic, and the other under the empire.
Storm troopers are not clones. Maybe take your own advice and read some of the books? I’m a third of the way through chronologically myself, which puts me in the middle of the clone wars.
You’re just wrong on this one dude.
You're actually illiterate...
Centax-2.
Kaminoans.
Wholefully, but preferably wholly.
You've just contradicted yourself. You somehow managed to do it in three sentences, no less.
You only think I contradicted myself since you don’t understand the difference in the armies, and this discussion isn’t important enough for me to proof read my comment.
Kamino clones were basically non existent by that point since they were secretly being replaced by clones from centex. Ground troops include the grunts (storm troopers) officers and generals (centex clones) which is again, wholefully different than their trainers (kamino clones).
Storm troopers have never been clones and always been human recruits and you’re just too fucking stupid to comprehend the difference.
By the time what you’re talking even happened, any clones weren’t even jango clones, so they aren’t the same clone army, but they also aren’t grunts, that’s the recruited human storm troopers.
Can you provide any lore that says storm troopers are clones? This may help you figure this quite frankly extremely simple difference.
You're actually illiterate, holy fuck. Do humanity a favour and go back to grade-1.
You’re the dumbass who thinks storm troopers are clones, Finn totally looks like jango doesn’t he…?
And apparently it only takes a preschooler to show up your Star Wars knowledge if you want to claim stupid shit like that lmfao.
Apparently you don't know the difference between "set contains" and "set equals" either. Go back to preschool instead.
As previously explained… those outliers were centax clones…. Can you please keep up and maybe retain some of this knowledge? Fucking hell. I’ve never seen someone dig in so fucking much on something so factually wrong.
Please provide some lore to back up your claim of storm troopers being clones, because the few that are, are officers, not the ones shooting in the fucking ground lmfao.

As previously explained, those clones that were left were centax clones, I already described how they were a part of the stormtroopers. But you can’t seem to understand they weren’t the same clones like the person was claiming.
I’m sorry you want to ignore the details that disprove your lore knowledge.
Stormtroopers are not clones, being the clones from Kamino.
All I have to say, is read the wiki.
Your jumps in conclusion is why everyone down votes you. There's not much content in Star wars memes, it's purely coincidental, barley even scrolled.
