Dammit... Everything is sooo good!
But for now, let's get some dirt in the ONI; We will need it in the future!

Better to clean up the mess before it becomes a BIG problem in the futter.

Halsey already knows about Onyx, might as well fix the UNSC while we still have time.

The scary thing is... Magoose has suggested that the sort of modifiers that we are rocking right now aren't atypical. Higher end things... the AI Illuminati, an active Gravemind, pretty much anything Forerunner related, the Covenant's 'break glass in case of apocalypse' bullshit... will be just as OP if not worse in their respective fields.
Its not an expression of how amazing we are. Its an expression of how utter shit mainstream humanity is and why they got beaten like a rug for so much of canon even with plot armor.
Huh. This could lead to some amazing housecleaning, almost to Soviet levels.
Sponsoring insurrectionist groups might actually be clever, if shortsighted if you lack the ability to take them out if they slip their leashes. That is how we got the Taliban and we know how well that one went. Controlling both sides of a war Palpatine-style is certainly audacious. I'd be interested in subverting their subversion of the subversives.

Hey if we chose this option then ONI might actually fall to the point where the government and I mean The government will take control with more "ethical" personnel

It depends on how we use the info. It would be just as easy to more or less just hijack things and let them mostly continue on under new leadership, a silent coup of the ubermensch. And suddenly humanity is under new ownership and doesn't realize it!
...
It continues to be weird that I can talk like this and still claim with a straight face that we aren't the villains here.

Correct.
Completely true.
After all, Humanity has only been reaching for the stars for less than three hundred years...
They are woefully behind on a lot of techs... but make up for it with sheer tenacity. And the ability to not give a shit about ethics when the chips are down.
No... this isn't Soviet Levels of House cleaning.
It's down right French Revolution Levels of "We're going to murder you fuckers for screwing with the only chance we have to peacefully make things better."
Indeed.
Heads will Roll... and if things go well...
We've got some... New management in ONI... that isn't stupid.
Of couse we aren't the villians...
We are just traumatized Child soldiers who have, in their own special way, want to fuck the people that turned us into child soldiers.
They wanted the greatest warriors in human history to deal with the problems that they created. They got what they wanted... now that same group sees that they are the problem.
Basically, ONI is reaping what they sowed.
What makes you think we will?
Like seriously. The Spartans aren't broken shells who will do war crimes on a whim because they were told too...
Gian instilled a moral compass in them... A rather strange one, operating on Blue-Orenge Morality, but a compass nonetheless.

Why does any state? Because they feel its necessary, because they feel its justified, because they feel it is the least of all available evils, because its expedient. Because we value those closer to us more than we value those several degrees distant and some day we may decide we would rather ten die that we have never met, that we might not be the same species with, rather than one man or woman we have. Or a thousand. Or a million.
"I, against my brothers. I and my brothers against my cousins. I and my brothers and my cousins against the world."
Once you start performing moral calculus, so much that should be unconscionable becomes routine.

Mean.. I would be all for "paying evil unto evil".. Some of these Innie groups literally nuked civilain population centers.
Doubt anyone would really blame us if a Innie group like that gets wiped from the face of the galaxy..

Well, at least they won't do it... without some very damn good reasons.
Being broken dosen't mean they won't decide that human lives are worth... stuff.
True... Very True.
THe S-III program will be happening, with or without your involvement... after all. Ackerson is an asshole who belives that Halsey stole his idea... or something along those lines.

So John isn't a 'only soldier and nothing else'
kinda guy here? His massages werent completely cut to the point. Teased Cal and all that. Then again I only Read a tiny bit of the first book, so maybe he is also relaxed in canon, at least when it comes to other Spartans.
Also how did Gian gave all of them a moral code or what ever? I get spending time and doing benefical shit, but all of them have some sort of code? Even Sam with his Ruthless trait?
Why does Sam have that trait even? Doesnt he die on the first Covenant ship early in the series without getting fleshed out?

He's the heart of the Spartan, so whatever Gian's leanings on morality is, the spartans will follow it like it's something biblical.
So it's less a shared moral code, and more of a "Gian's way is better then the other way, we'll follow his example" and so on.
A Little bit of fleshing out on my part... and because Sam did blow up a hanger full of civies in Blue teams first mission to escape.
