If anything bioware purposefully starts with this theme, then subverts it to the point that it is non-existant.

In ME, the geth were portrayed as the main enemies, but then Saren is shown leading them as is the true architect of their actions. Then we find out about Soverign and find that both Saren and the geth are little more then playthings to it. The geth had no real malice to organics, they were just following their god for a chance to accend, unknowingly being used aloung the way. They are as much victims of the Reapers as Saren was.

Then in ME2, the geth are highlighted as being apethic people of no threat, or at least no more then any other race. They are given a truely positive portrayal and the Reapers dont even fit in the "sythetics" side of this since they, as EDI states, are organic and non-organic. Essentially any attempt to simplify the theme of orgainic vs sythetic is ripped to shreds and becomes Reapers vs everyone, as it should be.

Then we get to ME3 and the series pulls a backtracking attempt, like they are scared of any attempt to make something that is not generic. We already established taht everyone, organic and synthetic, stand against the Reapers and we needed to get their differences sorted out. And im sorry but after dealing with a long string of organic races acting like dicks to each other and threatening war, a war between quarian and geth is not going to make me fall to my knees and cry "there will never be peace between us!"

No it seemed just like any other mess that the turians and krogan could have ended up in at any point. So when the Reaper went on about the war about organics and synthetics, i got worried. Why is a Reaper trying to prove it has the moral high ground? Wasnt part of the Reapers thing is that they are so arrogent and above us that they will never see us as we see ants. Would you try to reason with an ant the moral reasons for wiping out an infenstation? Then he tried to use the existing situation to prove itself right. This is so outside of any logic that it is so stupid for a Reaper to say it as if he just won any moral argument. And before you say tha Shepard is so good the Reapers are respecting him, even then they will not reason with him.

Other hints did not really work. I would buy more into Javik's claims of a constant war between organics vs sythetics if the guy saying it wasnt a racist, imperialist, war mongoring idiot who as lived his whole life on a battlefield and is probably suffering a number of mental disorders. Im not sure he has the sufficent notion of history and philspy considering he was not in the Metacon War and ony knows it through memory shards, of which their are not much.
