Balance is the superiority of the light over the dark, but what is light? What is good? Is good the moral high ground or the best decision out of 1 quadrillion options. There is no hell or heaven as Star Wars is based on Hindu/mostly Buddhism theology. Hinduism in that Kreia (Darth traya) is anti moksha. Good is subjective because the cosmic and living force want the light to win but the greater good requires the sacrifice of others. The ‘animals’ in Star Wars…are they really “animals” or just lesser iq beings with equal rights as others….obviously someone’s gotta eat. I say the Jedi are the good guys because balance is the oppression of the light over darkness but for this to work the light has to be vigorous and merciless against the dark, aggression and offensiveness is the duty of the light against the dark, not submissiveness to not carrying out justice on criminals and “the unarmed”, is a sith really “unarmed”…. See the Jedi don’t need to submit to anyone or any system, they choose to and by doing so they put rules on themselves that were never required of them, if they were the masters of emotions, attachments and relationships as an example then they would be close to the light, the light creates not destroys, so if they embraced the reality that they have power but it should be used to create then for instance you’d see Jedi force magic/ spells that could easily repair destroyed world or shattered hearts and families through a deeper love of the force not merely submitting to the idea of its unseen will being far away but rather its will is that those who already have the force use it to one create because that is the basic nature of the force.

Given the Council's horrible treatment of Ahsoka, well, good in theory but bad because of their extreme arrogance.

But the major problem of the jedi is that they separated themselves from the sith while jedi and sith follows the same force. You shouldn't overcome your emotions, you should keep the balance between reason and emotion.

You missed the point entirely. Star Wars universe is similar to our own, but there's a crucial difference - THE FORCE, which is the primordial, supreme power and the source of all creation. Jedi following the force consider themselves as followers and executors of its will and what it wants is supposedly for the benefit of all the universe. In Lucas' world religious orders are justified.

The Jedi weren’t ok with or sign off on the creation of the clone army also they didn’t jump at the chance to become generals in the army their hands were forced by the senate or be branded traitors to the republic their incompetence as generals doesn’t make them evil it makes them bad generals

They were good in the same sense that britain ussr etc were good in WW2. We all know how awful they are when they aren't fighting a genocidal maniac. Or even when they are...

My one point of contention is that Palpatine probably never intended for Padme and Anakin to get that close. It was more likely something he chose to exploit, and would have had something else lined up in any event. The guy put himself in a position to effectively groom Anakin since he was 10, so he probably had all kinds of control levers and buttons to push regardless of that one thing.

Yes... because The Maker says they are... The Sith are not misunderstood... the Sith are the bad guys... George explained it simply... Light Side = Good Guys Dark Side = Bad Guys Just because they are the good guys doesn't mean they are perfect and make no mistakes. But they were still written as the Good Guys in Star Wars 💙

My one thing about Boba Fett in RotJ to mention: He was just about to blow a hole in Luke's torso. If Han hadn't lucked into a good hit right then, the movie would have probably ended there.

Democracy is the finest autocracy, because you think you have a vote

Yes *play credits*

Well, then you're lost!

Lovely video

Star Wars has been ripped out of my ageing arms and handed over to fresh idiots that can’t immerse themselves in the fantasy it was meant to be. I’m an anti-royalist, but in the Senate I don’t have a fucking problem with Leia being a princess. I’m a pacifist, but on the plains of Hoth I want carnage. So now Star Wars is briskly being transformed from the timeless fairy tale it started as; the old school serials pastiche it once was, to a super-serious one-to-one reflection of our modern world. With a giant dose of post-modernism slabbed into the cracks this violation renders on what once had integrity. That’s apparently what the NEW audience wants. And the idiots in charge are of the same ilk. And no. Of course. No one is interested in anything new. They have to take something old and convert it. Change it. Destroy it. Leave it as it was. Continue it as it is meant to be. Or do something else. Go somewhere else. But I have no say in this anymore. New Lucasfilm and current fans couldn’t give a damn. 🖕

Yes, they ARE the good guys. Anyone who tries to claim otherwise doesn't know, care or understand Star Wars.

Counter point, they're taught this code because an untrained person at any age with force powers is friggin dangerous. Even just knowing telekinesis they can be a massive threat. Also as Ahsoka proves, when they're old enough they can just fuck off and leave.

Yes, the Jedi are the good guys, you know, those guys fighting against the literal satan of their universe. The sith and disney are the bad guys.

Yes, they were very flawed but they were still the good guys. I have no idea where this narrative they're not came from, stop trying to put grey element to something that wasn't designed to have one.

they also kidnapped force sensitive children to increase their military power, in the other hand becoming a sith apprentice is a choice.

The good ol..."My religion is moral and better than yours" argument. Down with the Jedi😂

A gunshot to the knee absolutely CANNOT BE MENDED with current medical technology.

That was the og boba fett voice

Just discovered this channel right now and thought it was made like last week. Only to find out it came out years ago. Even if you never want to make another video; know that you made quality videos with the best of them. Take care and hope this inspires others to talk about their passions

In response to the bounty hunter's arm; in fairness, the woman was armed, had used weaponry before and was ready willing to attack at the time. Not very far fetched for obi wan to kill her, let alone maim her.

Clone wars shouldn’t count, every character was mischaracterized so the order was as well. Also, the Jedi were effectively slaves as well

The clones having biochips is still stupid, was way better before. Even clones who loved their Jedi still went through with the order (except in a few fringe cases) and the sadness some felt was interesting. They were bred for loyalty, and weee a great social commentary from George ruined by filoni

Yes. They were. Saying otherwise means you are wrong. Simple as.

So we all understand that the clones were slaves and the Jedi were fine with that right? Just like they were fine with Anakin's mum staying a slave

There's a difference between him being a threat, and actually having him be a badass. The stormtroopers are treated as "a threat", that doesnt make them any less cannon fodder.

one minute in already self indulging in a fallacious argument.. lol pass

Boba Fett: The Man, The Myth, The Human Pinata. A blind man with a stick, my only weakness.

What police force are you talking about the USA?

Oya!

the man, the myth, the mandalorian, the mythosaur

2:44 yes but thats just any soldier desertion is a crime punishable by prison or death in some cases in our world, so i doubt its a jedi policy. probably more of a rebublic policy also the jedi don't own the clones, thats the republic

I noticed that you have a Warhammer 40k boxset Also if I may ask, which Chaos God would the Jedi be most susceptible to falling to and why?

Modern secular morality is not the end all be all. Total lack of imagination. Mentally enslaved.

The Jedi are Evil 😈

The jedi were good guys that made alot of mistakes.

The jedi saved lives and liberated enslaved planets so yeah they were good guys. TCW attempts to spread the narrative that the jedi are "corrupt" without actually elaborating on anything. The prequel trilogy itself was never meant to spread that narrative as even George Lucas himself has said that the rise of the Empire was entirely Anakin's fault for making bad choices.

8:38 ❎️ simply to get his way ✅️ to save a life

From my point of view the Jedi are evil

I like your take on star wars but god I cringed everytime you tried to show the absurdity and the hypocrisy of the morals of this fictional word with what you thought were hyperbolic examples of the real world. Like cops not following "procedure" being something absurd in your example or "an ambassador of the US", the most evil and ruthless regime in the last centuries, doing something silly as threading with a handgun as an unethical thing in the same timeline the US being the only country that used nukes against its enemy. Clearly you are a good guy, and you are enthusiastic about the topics you like, but it may be a good call to do yourself the same questions you proposed for this fictional political body (the Jedi) to the actual, real life affecting political body that is the government of your country. The empire exists in real life, and it's not precisely branding a death star in the space, my friend.

I agree with a lot of this video except for the points at the end comparing the Jedi to the likes of Walt and Frank Castle. Those two men did/do what they did/do because at their core they are narcissists looking for excuses to feel good. At least the Jedi want to do good.

Dummy, The Jedi didn't create the Clone Army Palpatine did. The Jedi didn't wanna use the Clone army Palpatine made them war time Generals. The Jedi didn't want war Palpatine did. What are you talking about? You make it seem like the Jedi are war hungry when they are not. If anyone would promote slavery it's the Mandlorians. They nearly took over the Galaxy and killed Millions forcing The Jedi Revan to strike back against them. You bias opinion is making you subjective about the Jedi and not Objective about they're true purpose.

Dang! No wonder Dooku turned to Sidious when leaving the Jedi. You may as well show the clips of Dooku turning to the dark as well. Also 19:25 No! Not necessarily! Haven’t you heard of Benjamin Franklin before??? Benjamin Franklin “Democracy is like having2 wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner!!!”

I mean democracy is not inherently good and authoritarianism isn’t inherently bad. They can both be used for purposes that are objectively bad, but that doesn’t make them explicitly bad on their own

I would argue that yes they were. They taught and were taught all the right moral lessons and they genuinely were trying to help the galaxy. That said good people can do great evil when mislead. I also do think that while their lessons were correct, their dogmatic approach to teaching those lessons were harmful. It is ok to love and it is ok to have attachments so long as those attachments don’t turn to possession, and so long as you are able to let go of those attachments and accept loss without turning to hatred.

6:14 you do realize she was about to shoot obi wan so if he hadnt done anything obi wan would have died and she would have gotten away.

Where are the younglings parents? Aren't they child soldiers?
