I Think The One Of The Dumbest Pro Jedi Arguments I Have Seen Is That Jedi Are Not Against Romance Or

I think the one of the dumbest pro Jedi arguments I have seen is that Jedi are not against romance or other types bonds based on love, they are against attachment. If that was the case then why are Jedi not allowed to marry? Why are Jedi not allowed know their biological families? Why do Jedi need to take babies? Also no, I don’t see Jedi taking babies from families as adoption, that is also stupid too. I wouldn’t be surprised if Jedi Knights put pressure on parents to give up their babies by claiming the baby will have a better life. Also I don’t think being critical of certain Jedi Practices means I wanted them to all die like they did or that they are worse than the Sith.

So are jedi robes / cloaks waterproof? Like if they had to swim across a lake, would they get their undergarments wet? Do they take classes on how to deal with trench foot and shit? I really hope they at least had a change of clothes stuffed somewhere on their utility belt. If they were on the time restraint, say rescuing a princess or defusing a bomb, would they have to stand there and pretend they don't feel the feeling of water sloashing around in their boots, the sand or gravel or whatever makes up the beach / river bank getting everywhere? Leeches getting on you and sucking your blood, don't get me started on the mosquitos! Ugh, imagine doing aerobatics and fighting immediately after all that.

The thought that insiped this: I'm thinking about Attack of the Clones where Kenobi arrives on Kamino. (I don't jackshit about Kaminoians other than they are amphibians and that they specialize at bio engineering.) And I can't help but wonder if the Kaminoians wanted to cool down and had the air conditioning on blast that day.

If all Imperial Guard regiments would organise local military Olympics (like various military operations (infiltrations, assassinations, holding the fort) in different setup (hive world or ice worlds environment etc)), which regiment will get most medals?

The Officio Assassinorum wins all the medals because the other contestants keep dying of coincidental poisoning. Or accidental drowning. Or tripping face first onto turbo-penetrator bullets. There is a brief investigation into potential foul play, but after one of the referees tragically slips down two flights of stairs and an eversor assassin, it’s rapidly and unanimously agreed upon that everything is above board.

The Jedi were completely justified in in the Wrong Jedi Arc (Part 1)

You know what, let's take a look at the Jedi interrogation of Ahsoka. Which was so bad that it both justifies Ahsoka's belief that the Order deserved what they got and so traumatic that we (according to Ahsoka fans) shouldn't be surprised that it wiped out her personality for around 30 years.

Let's start with "The Jedi who knew too much" since that's where Ahsoka was first suspected. Now let's look at the case against Ahsoka so far...

-She was seen angrily ranting about wanting Leeta to "pay" for bombing the Temple and was outraged that the military took custody of her because she wanted the Jedi to punish her. She's so angry she even starts questioning the Chancellor straight to the face of an Admiral.

-She's invited to speak to Leeta on her request only for Leeta to end up dead by a Force choke.

-Ahsoka was later found outside her cell, armed with her confiscated weapons. When the guard (quite logically) sounds the alarm, Ahsoka flees right into the path of three dead clones. Fox assumes (again, logically) that she killed them.

-She shouts that she was being set up to Anakin who says he believes her and asks her to come down so they can figure things out, but Ahsoka flees and resists arrest instead.

In response to this, the Jedi Council are understandably suspicious. However, their response was to deploy two teams to capture her alive.

Led by Anakin Skywalker and Plo Koon. AKA the two who most believed in her innocence.

That is an insanely compassionate act on their part. To entrust the mission to the very people who believe in her innocence and who'd do everything they could to bring her in safely.

Also everyone blames Fox for assuming she killed the three dead clones she was standing over but forget that Rex called an alert saying "She killed three clones" causing security to freak out and try to blow her away with a cannon.

If at any point Ahsoka had just stopped or stayed in her cell the frame job would've likely been discovered but she picked the worst possible combination of choices. Great job Ahsoka!

Okay so obviously Sheev Palpatine is just pure evil. But why does he do evil so well? Like if evil, why hot? Honestly his audacity and pure diabolical-ness needs more love.

It's satisfying to watch/read how his plans fall apart, but after the gazillion time it just loses it spark. Especially after the sequels. What even was that? Ignoring the obvious blunder of bringing him back, Where's the masterplan spanning decades? The hiding in plan sight?? The running circles around everyone??? Disney really be saying that they brought him back only add nothing and kill him off in the lamest way possible 😭 A downfall should be earned, not dumbing down the big bad so the perfect, infallible protagonist can roll over them.

The prequels may not have been the best, but coupled with legends, Palpatine's genius shined through. I'd say that it plays a big part in his character that the more it gets taken away or overshadowed, the worst the character gets.

--Not that I have anything against fluff writers, but ao3 has too much fluff. (Or maybe I just suck at the filters)

🙏Please provide fic suggestions of angst!🙏

An personal favorite example of mine, although a really obscure piece of lore (and not a fanfic), would the the Legends one-shot comic by the name of Republic #64: Bloodlines. Befriending a jedi for decades and then callously casting him aside is not unique at all, but the comic presents it in a way that you feel really bad for the jedi. It provides snap shots of the most defining moments of their so called "friendship". Ronhar Kim would save Palpatine's life from an assassination attempt (*wink wink;) ) after they have met at his birth father's funeral. And whaddya know, Vidar Kim was Palpatine's political mentor who he succeeded in office! What a great coincidence, the galaxy sure is a small place :D

Ronhar Kim does not play a huge role in the star wars universe, and yet, it's his betrayal that hit the hardest for me. Guy was just this normal jedi, serene yet defiant in the face of death, who befriends a seemingly sincere politician. Attempted to bridge the gap between the Senate and the Jedi, who arguably came up with the plan that could have exposed the sith lord, and yet all that was him eating from the palm of the one Sheev Palpatine.
