TBH a lot of my problems with the Jedi Order boil down to "okay but you know boarding schools are a thing, right? Like. Kids can do Jedi School and also see their parents still? We do that shit to rich kids all the time. STOP STEALING BABIES!"
For real, some people have been like âBut the Jedi didnât steal kids, those families gave them up, it was an HONOR.â
If a bunch of space wizards who can read minds and deflect blaster fire and bend your will to theirs show up on your doorstep and say âWeâre taking your kid now, and you can never see or contact them againâ the fuck are you gonna do? Shoot them? I mean that would be the obvious first reaction, but these fuckers can deflect blaster fire. Say no? Well, unless youâre VERY strong willed one mind trick later and youâre minus your child. And even if you ARE strong willed, then they still take your kid âfor the good of the galaxyâ, and then teach that kid that love and connections are Bad and youâll never see them again.
The only answer was âhire bounty hunters to counter-kidnap your kid backâ, and some families did. Others simply gave up and mourned for the kids theyâd never see again. Iâm sure they felt very honored.
Or, if you were a Mandalorian, you could say âFuck you space wizardsâ, plate your beskar armor with cortosis alloy, pick up weapons and techniques that could nullify a Jediâs powers, and then say âIf you want them, youâve gotta go through me first, my good bitches, so suck a thermal detonater.â
And then hire yourself out to counter-kidnap those kids and get them back to those families who loved them.
(I have FEELINGS about the Old Jedi Order, and those feelings are âyou kriffing fools made all your own problems, and brought about your own destruction, and good riddance.)
