How are they the good guys? Honestly how?

look at furrys, extreme leftys and your regular Sup Forums posters, and tell me they deserve the freedom to govern themselves

Yoda said the dark side is more powerful
Lincoln Taylor
Of course none of that shit is stated in the prequels and has to be deduced by the audience. Meanwhile Anakin cites none of that as a reason for hating the Jedi instead gets tricked by Sheev into believing he can prevent death.
Liam Richardson
Because Lucas always wanted SW to be black & white. Good vs evil. Siths were evil and you are not supposed to think otherwise.
And retards on Sup Forums defend him.

Except that's false, everytime the sith attacked first.

>>seperates children from their parents to keep them from getting attached to stuff so they dont go full anakin and in turn full vader. you have to remember a lot of people think its an honor to have their kid become a jedi and they jedi are viewed as generally positive
>>discriminate and Exterminate a religion simply due to believing the opposite of them. we actually don't know wtf happened yet in new canon but its already being written differently from the EU darth bane/old republic stuff. for all we know the sith could have started the fight with the jedi and tried to wipe the jedi out so they jedi were justified in actually wiping them out in return
>>Whenever they is a dark slide user, they attack them and kills them well maul rushed their shit out of nowhere. so the sith got themselves into this one.
>>They try to assassinate a chancellor of a democratically elected republic due to being a sith, and if it wasn't for a proud patriot they would have created a theocracy. thats a long stretch of an accusation on the theocracy considering what we know of palpatines plan. the jedi were just responding to the crisis as they saw fit. and they tried to arrest him, not assassinate
>>instead of trying to understand and overcome their negative emotions they prefer to shut it down, thereby creating a endless cycle of them falling and causing destruction.
i guess this could go both ways. the jedi claim to be protectors and as an extension of that mediators, arbiters, etc. suppress your emotions in those situations is obviously beneficial. and on the inverse, you could easily argue that someone powerful (a SITH LORD?!) NOT restraining their emotions and just doing wtf ever on a whim because they happen to be pissed at the moment is bad.

>>They arrogantly assume their side is stronger than the dark.
like other user said, yoda himself says its stronger but also leads to traps
>>If a member of their order even so much has an independent thought than the council they are branded as evil. not really qui gon was pretty unconventional and you see the high council being questions a lot

>How are they the good guys? Honestly how? george lucas being a faggot.
tldr they aren't good guys but for reasons other than what you said
>no moral quams about using a clone army >assuming offensive rolls in the clone wars >being too stupid to realize that the seperatists probably had a legimate right to separate but protected the republics interests anyways >full retard when it comes to bending some rules but strict on others (the whole freeing anakin but not shmi ordeal) > maintaining a monopoly to the access and use of kyber crystals which have been shown to have incredible and practical energy applications but instead only end up in lightsabers

They original trilogy used the force as an illustration of inner human conflict and how people struggle to come to term with their emotions. The prequels completely skipped that concept and used the force as that thing that gives jedis their abilities and allows them to wield a light saber. Unfortunately this turns jedis just into stoic monks with superpowers, who can't be used to further the plot. They aren't emotional, they don't want anything, they aren't jealous, angry or sad, they don't have plans or goals or motives. This is really bad, since they won't do anything on their own, but just react to other character's actions. So, the evil character does something, and all the jedis can do is find out and try to stop it. That is why all the Jedi characters and their story lines are so painfully bland and boring, they have no features on their own. And it's also why they fight the dark side so aggressively. If you took away that fight against the dark side, there just would be nothing left. It's everything they are.

m8 the seperatists were filthy jews and were building armies to attack the Republic, they only used the clones because they were already made and they literally wouldnt have had a big enough army otherwise

>thats a long stretch of an accusation on the theocracy considering what we know of palpatines plan. the jedi were just responding to the crisis as they saw fit. People vote against something the jedi don't like and they wipe them out. It's pretty much a dictatorship.
>and they tried to arrest him, not assassinate Under whose authority? Sheev had the Senate approval. And then Mace Windu tried to kill him. Anakin even tells him to stop and Windu says >He's too dangerous to be left alive How is that not political assassination again?
>i guess this could go both ways. the jedi claim to be protectors and as an extension of that mediators, arbiters, etc. suppress your emotions in those situations is obviously beneficial. and on the inverse, you could easily argue that someone powerful (a SITH LORD?!) NOT restraining their emotions and just doing wtf ever on a whim because they happen to be pissed at the moment is bad. Wrong. The people prone to outbursts are those who bottle up their emotions. Ask any shrink out there. Being a mediator requires the ability to handle with negative emotions. How's a person who lives his life running away from fear and anger supposed to deal with other people's fears and anger? This is the very reason why every psychologist HAS to undergo therapy before attending.

A lot of it's pretty explicitly stated in the TCW

>They original trilogy used the force as an illustration of inner human conflict and how people struggle to come to term with their emotions. The prequels completely skipped that concept and used the force as that thing that gives jedis their abilities and allows them to wield a light saber I've never understood this criticism. Was it honestly your interpretation that ANYONE could use the force if they just believed in themselves?
