Antinatalists are so fucking weird.

You can almost always trace it back to "I hate my life and wish I'd never been born". Instead of going to therapy like normal people, they make a whole dumbass "philosophy" about it.

Leaving work after playing an idiot all day to avoid responsibility

it genuinely melts my brain watching people take sith monologues at face value like they’re TED talks instead of… you know… villain speeches.

like. these are not neutral historians. these are not unbiased narrators. these are men who wake up every morning and choose manipulation as a lifestyle.

and yet people hear palpatine whispering into anakin’s ear like “the jedi are hiding things from you… they don’t trust you…” and go. wow. compelling. source: dude in a hood who has never told the truth once in his life.

HELLO???

of course he’s going to say that. what else is he supposed to do. sit anakin down and go “hi yes i am actively trying to emotionally isolate you from your support system so i can turn you into my apprentice and ruin your life” like be serious 😭

same with maul going “you’ve been indoctrinated by the jedi” as if HE wasn’t raised in a sith pipeline since childhood. sir. that is not a revelation.

and dooku. walking around like a philosophy professor going “the republic is corrupt” yeah okay, we know, and your solution is… fascism with extra lightning???

like yes. the jedi made mistakes. but, they’re an institution, not a divine being. but the leap from “the jedi aren’t perfect” to “the sith are telling the truth actually” is INSANE to me.

A lot of people have become really enamored with the idea that villains should “have a point”, and while for specific stories that can work, Star Wars is about as simple as it gets.

The Jedi are the good guys. We know this because Luke’s entire hero’s journey is about him becoming a Jedi. The Sith build weapons of mass destruction and rule through fear, while the Jedi do their best to stop them.

Some Sith can be tragic victims, but the doctrine of the Sith is fundamentally evil, and the Jedi are right to call it so.

Something people also miss is that the Jedi are both an organization and the individuals that make up that organization. The Jedi Order itself is flawed and arguments can be made that it causes, if not more harm than good, at least maybe as much harm as good. But the individual Jedi? Yeah, they're mostly a force (heh) for good in the galaxy. And as flawed as the Order is, it's still a better alternative to the Sith, with their tyranny and cruelty and obsessive worship of the self.
