#(also I know midichlorians are a touchy topic)

Apparently people are mad about that new Ahsoka show, because some gal, Satine or Sabine, is trying to become a Jedi, and fans are pissed because she's not force-sensitive and is Mandalorian?

I don't really see why the first is an issue beyond, I guess, lacking the fancy Force abilities, but it's whatever. Seen some weird takes on both sides of that argument today. For the second point, I know Mandalorians and Jedi kinda have a shaky history, but from my understanding that was mostly something pushed in the old EU by Karen Traviss, and that stuff got mostly wiped by the Disney retcons anyway. So I guess they could do some interesting stuff with whatever of that tension is still canon, but I don't see why it would have to be a dealbreaker.

More importantly, it seems to me like she's trying to become the SW universe's version of Samus! If she's Mandalorian, then she aready has the power armor and the T-visor down pat, now she just needs to add the whole "wandering warrior monk from a fallen mystic culture" angle lmao. And a gunship. And that, in my opinion, is an endeavor that should only be supported. :3
