Get the mods involved I have no way to prove who and who isn’t a sock I have to use best judgment and treat people equally.
As to Thrawn being a good guy or it hinted that he was i never liked that aspect of the Duology or the other later Thrawn books which I need to reread Outbound Flight and Survivor’s Quest.
The idea that the Empire were the good guys because they kept order to prevent an alien Invasion from outside the galaxy because Democracy is messy, totally hate that.
