In fact, why are humans the dominant species in the galaxy when there are multiple other species that can live for centuries?
Hell, why is there no uber powerful AI that has ruled the galaxy for multiple millenia? If space travel has been so commonplace, surely God tier AI would have conquered the universe by that point?
because we still lived in a patriarchal society all the other planets were consumed by feminism and humans had to be the males
Kayden Peterson
robots can't use the force so they wouldn't be able to conquer the galaxy
Nicholas Myers
Because he's a human.
Because humans expanded the fastest.
Because the galaxy holds deep suspicion for droids.
Wyatt Torres
>If space travel has been so commonplace, surely God tier AI would have conquered the universe by that point? I don't understand the connection. Space flight and AI are totally different
Leo Foster
I'd wager humans have the highest procreation rate.
John Clark
droids =/= AI
Camden Campbell
Because you can't procreate if you are just CGI, a puppet, or stop-motion animated.
Christian Evans
Yes, but the mistrust of thinking machines extends to AI as well.
Evan Lopez
because important characters are mostly human in star wars
chewie, droids, goofy alien characters are really just sidekicks, pets, and mascots. anyone with any emotional or plot importance ends up being a human, or a human "alien" with attennaes and blue makeup
yoda is maybe the one exception to this rule
Andrew Barnes
I just realized that all the prominent Sith Lords (Palpatine, Bane, etc) and Jedi (Yoda, Windu, etc) are men.
>yfw Lucas is redpilled on womyn
Do numbers really mean everything though?
Benjamin Gray
Did Grievous have an organic brain?
Aaron Morgan
yeah
Lucas Garcia
That reminds me of how racial minorities are relegated to sidekick positions
Thomas Lopez
well when you think about it OP, human life spans are the reason we would be the most abundant species in the galaxy. If a species lived for, say, 10,000 years, comparing that to average human age (1 year to 100 years) this species would be about 3,000 years old before it reproduced, whereas a human will have billions of kids in hundreds of generations at that point.
Nicholas Rogers
This, that's why they let that guy on the Jedi council have a bunch of wives and kids.
Ayden Ortiz
Imagine alien SJWs
John Gutierrez
What if the aliens don't need to get to 3,000 years old to reproduce?
There's a huge variety of species in the galaxy. Maybe there are some that live thousands of years, but can reproduce when they're a few months old
Hunter Campbell
It's the same thing with Salmon, they lay a shit ton of eggs but only a handful actually live. If an advanced race can live for millions of years AND has a shit ton of spawn, it's likely that the spawn won't live for very long due to natural conditions or, more likely, mating will be reduced so as not to use up all the available materials in an effort to expand numbers. After all having 60 trillion of a species that lasts ten thousand years will severely fuck their resources.

>Lucas Star Wars >The Galactic Empire was formed from the remnants of the Galactic Republic by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine to unite the galaxy against any unknown threats, such as the Far Outsiders (starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Far_Outsiders). Although primarily made up of and run by humans, the Empire also employs aliens (starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Aliens_in_the_Empire), showing that they seem to value skill and merit above all else. While there are many who see the Empire as being evil based on their methods (such as destroying entire planets to set an example), their role in the galaxy comes down to keeping the peace and restoring order when needed.
>Disney Star Wars >"The Empire is a white supremacist organization."
Eli Torres
Why not
They are the most populous. Star Wars is one of those rare sci-fi universes where humans are actually pretty badass compared to other races
The Force probably wouldn't want that to happen.

None of that was Lucas. >>"The Empire is a white supremacist organization." None of that comes from a canon source.
Gavin Butler
This. Why haven't Yoda's species dominated the galaxy yet?
Evan Kelly
>Sheev >human supremacist Remind me again what species his first apprentice was? Also, the blue guy next to him in pic was Sheev's Grand Vizier and vice-Emperor and took over the Empire after he died at the Battle of Endor for a short time as the new Emperor.
Sheev loved all races, stop spreading Rebel lies.
Carter Thompson
Humans are the center of human stories. So instead of the real future, our science fiction futures are fantasies about putting humans in a new environment. In reality, advanced species live in virtual environments like the Internet. Mind uploading becomes mainstream in the early 22nd century.
Cooper Gomez
Bigger question, how come whenever someone makes a fantasy universe they make Humans one of the best races? It's like they don't even enjoy fantasy
Ayden Gomez
what about "muh ancient and wise elves" in Tolkien's world
faggots can sail to the equivalent of Heaven whenever they want like it's a summer resort
Ryder Howard
The same reason there is no strong ai in star trek as well; it would do everything better than the protagonists and solve most plots instantly. So the writers artificially keep it dumb.
Aaron Richardson
in Tolkiens world the main story revolves around hobbits and humans, always fuckin humans
HUMAN SCUM
Levi Brown
go to bed, Elrond
remember how your daughter got MAN'D
Matthew Lee
Grievous isn't an ayyylmao and he can't use the force
Angel Barnes
>Isn't an ayylmao I meant he isn't a robot - he is an alien
Fuck
Jordan Flores
He wasn't human supremacist. His first apprentice was a Zabrak and his right hand man was a devil dude.
