But not fear. Fear isn't a feeling.
Or anger. No way anger is a feeling.
Hate isn't a feeling either. We're good Christian Jedi, we would never hate anyone. This ain't no heathen paganism.
Remember Luke, I'm smarter than evolution. Listen to me, not silly millions-of-years-lindy systems.
Listen to your feelings. Unless I tell you not to. Remember to always listen to your feelings when someone tells you to.
Really, let's just skip the middleman. Luke! Do whatever I tell you to, and nothing I don't tell you to! The Jedi creed is: Obey! Bow! Grovel!
Dominance and slavery just is righteousness!
P.S. You're allowed to cut anyone to ribbons, unless they're an Evil Emperor, then violence isn't the answer. I'm sure this will work out great for you! Incentives!
We're totally different from the dark side because hey look a squirrel
It's not called the Sith mind trick.
The "light" side is the dark side but with a scam on top. And better propagandists.
This is why I unironically call myself Sith.
The movie ultimately subverts this message though when Vader turns to the light side precisely by killing the emperor.
ReplyDeleteSimilarly that dumb saying "only the Sith deal in absolutes" is subverted in the prequels by the fact that the Sith, Palpatine, tells Anakin the Jedi are too absolutist in only studying one side of the force.
The question is whether Jew Lucas intended to subvert his own point or God overruled him.
Dooku was right!
ReplyDeleteLucas == Jedi and you can never trust a Jedi. Nearly everything he says about Sith is twisted...and evil.
ReplyDeleteOccasionally his Jedi tricks aren't up to the self-appointed task of obscuring Reality. Glory >> scurrying Jedi rats.
