am i the asshole?

Life isn’t always black and white. Sometimes it’s hard to tell who’s really at fault, and no one wants to believe they’re the bad guy. Sometimes you need an outside opinion. Or several.

Tell your side of the story and crowdsource an honest answer to the age old question; Am I The Asshole?

If he is, I haven't met him.

You said you tried to turn attention to other projects instead of the Death Star. What did you suggest?

Grand Admiral Thrawn was working on a TIE/D Defender Elite program when he vanished, one I was privileged to consult with him on, as an engineer and a pilot. His program would have created hundreds of thousands of TIE defenders, with shields, hyperdrives, and weaponry far advanced of any ship in the galaxy. Instead of one gloated 'super weapon' parked in front of one planet, there could have been a dozen superior weapons planted in front of hundreds of thousands of planets, at once.

It's unfortunate I don't have him to consult with. That seems similar to my own thoughts, but I haven't gotten far on it yet.

[Do you even know how nice it is to have Grandpa validate something he's thinking? Because it's great. Kylo has no actual clue how to be Supreme Leader and someone decided she didn't want to stay and help him figure it out.]

There are some people who just want to build another Starkiller, but obviously, I don't plan on letting them.

I know I kept a copy of the plans he shared. They should still exist on Mustafar. Vaneè would have them uf no one else.

[ Vader knows that cut twice over. Not that he ever truly wanted the Throne. He was quite content to enforce the will of the person on it. Mostly. ]

There isn't another known planet like Ilum. Even before Jedha destroyed it didn't come close.
