    We're currently working on reaching our stretch goal of 37 patrons (we currently have 14/37) for our goal of Anakin's full thesis! www.patreon.com/SealsareGood
    As ever, please don't feel under any compulsion to join my Patreon. No matter what happens with the stretch goal, I plan on continuing to make comedic videos for the foreseeable future.
    If you have requests for videos, potential further stretch goals, or would like to share why you agree General Grievous is the best villain Star Wars has ever had, feel free to reply to this message!

    In this continuity, the Death Star is a giant broadcasting station with nearly unlimited range, set on spreading the message of Anakin's thesis to the masses (while jamming all other communications), whether they want it or not.
    The population of Alderaan, unwisely, chose to detonate their planet's Kyber crystal power plant to escape their fate.
    Little did they know, use of that power plant made them all latent force users, so they became force ghosts, and had to listen to the thesis - broadcasted on repeat - anyway.
    Palpatine believes this to be both the most evil act in history of the galaxy, and the ultimate tool for quelling rebellions. Though he himself - oddly (to Anakin) - chose to move to a heavily shielded and insulated bunker at an undisclosed location, far outside of the Galactic Core.

      So, logically speaking, this might actually be a Jedi Power. While there definitely is passion in the Thesis, and there's no mistaking that, it contains logic and consideration without an obsession with what emotions the material might invoke in their wielder. He did not avoid the material because it was controversial, he considered the actual nature of the material, found something that he considered to be relevant to an understanding of the Force as a whole, and sought to publish it after getting as much peer review as he could manage to confirm or deny the nature of his thesis, finding as many objections as he could.

    The metatextual link between the dualism of Force worship between Jedi and Sith and the Zoroastrian dualist view of reality has been noted by many scholars. As the late Jedi Anakin Skywalker noted in his thesis, the Zoroastrians believed that reality was akin to a battlefield between a good deity, Ahura Mazda, and an evil one, Angra Manyu, popularly also known as Ahriman. Jedi Anakin pointed out that just as Zoroastrians believe both deities existed but only followed one, the Jedi and Sith both know that both the light side and dark side of the Force exist but only follow one. This practice is often called monolatrist (not to be confused with monotheist), as the Zoroastrian may believe two Gods exist but only follow and worship one of them.
    This dichotomy is reflected in the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise, as Darth Plagueis seeks to preserve life but rather than turn to the light side of the Force, typically associated with nurturing, sustaining, and protecting, he turned to the dark side, typically associated with death and destruction. Turning to the dark side is a natural instinct for a Dark Lord of the Sith, as the eponymous "Dark" in his title reflected an affinity to the dark side, yet it blinded Plagueis to the possibility that power to preserve life might be better sought in the light side. Plagueis further neglected the dark side's tendency to produce self-destructive outcomes for its users and failed to consider that though he had the power to preserve the lives of others, he could not sustain his own life. "Ironic," wrote Jedi Skywalker. The irony of this is in the form of dramatic irony, for Plagueis did not know what the audience of the story knew, that the dark side leads to the destruction of its users.
    Jedi Skywalker is assumed to have died in the Jedi Purge the night Darth Vader appeared and destroyed the Jedi Temple. However, his thesis was further explored in Vader's own thesis on the Zoroastrian influence on Jedi and Sith philosophy, which cited Skywalker's works heavily. Ironically, despite quite possibly killing Anakin Skywalker, Darth Vader was clearly well read on Skywalker's works and in dialogue with Skywalker's themes.

    • @davidwuhrer6704
      @davidwuhrer6704 5 місяців тому +9

      Very good, but what doesn't sit right with me is that if the Dark Side tends to destroy its worshippers in ironic ways, it would run out of worshippers pretty quickly. It has to have something to offer, but almost everything we hear about it is from those who choose not to follow it, which suggests confirmation bias.
      And also the saw that every accusation is an admission. "He does not look behind the door who hadn't stood there himself" and all that.

      And the most agonizing part for the viewers will be that the video will be full of single frame written lines that are essential addendums to clarify entire sections of the thesis, thus forcing avid listeners to pause repeatedly and scroll to the exact frame to read what he said

    I like to think that at the very end of Return of the Jedi Palpatine accidentally triggers Vader to recite his thesis yet again, which he since lengthened to 3 full hours due to newfound insights, prompting Palpatine to decide this entire thing just isn't worth it anymore and jump down the reactor shaft himself.
    Leaving Vader confused as to why this keeps happening to him.
