      That's a feature, not a bug In the big picture the Jedi serve the social function of being "containment" for Force users, their overall job is to minimize the effect the Force has on ordinary people's daily life

      this feels like the big reveal at the end of a book 1 of an expanded universe trilogy, where we discover the heroes' light-side mentor is actually the villain and he wants to eliminate all knowledge of the force from the galaxy, for order

      Well I mean to me Star Wars just generally makes more sense with the backstory from KotOR The galaxy was once ruled by tyrannical Dark Side Force users (the Rakatan Empire) whose cruelty and tyranny was boundless, and whose inevitable collapse led to even more suffering

      The ancient origins of the Jedi Order were an attempt to try to make sure this never happened again The purpose of Jedi Knights is to be a neutered version of Sith Lords who *take the place the Sith would have* in an earlier society

      The whole Jedi concept of "Light Side" and "Dark Side" is the ancient Jedi trying to identify all the psychological factors that led to the old magocracy going mad with power and purge them from themselves Like how the rebels against the Hand in Marvel are carried "the Chaste"

      The new canon stuff kinda pokes at it a bit, but I actually want them to go all in on how the Dark Side/Light Side thing isn't a full picture and how both of them are self-destructive because they're both just fragments of a larger whole.

      Dark side giving in to all of your worst impulses doesn't actually help you solve your problems, and light side refusing to recognize when anger might be justified isn't going to do you any good either. The Jedi/Sith thing feels like one order that got broken in half.

      Replying to @Zendervai @arthur_affect and

      The two approaches are wildly unbalanced and don't work properly on their own but they might actually balance each other out if either side was like "hey, therapy and working on concrete solutions and approaches might actually help you deal with these destructive urges."

      This is the theme that it looks like they're gonna explore in S4 of my new favorite Star Wars series, Netflix's Cobra Kai

      My take on Danny LaRusso's failures is It's not that his ideals are wrong It's not that his intentions were bad It's not that a perfect world where everyone lived by his teachings wouldn't be great

      But he's just wildly unrealistic about his own capacity to embody them Never mind the capacities of a bunch of hormonal teenagers

          The reason a therapist tells you "Look it's okay to be a selfish jerk sometimes" isn't that on some metaphysical objective level it actually is "okay" in the sight of God to be a selfish jerk It's that telling you it's NOT okay won't actually stop you from doing it

          It will make you PRETEND that you're not a selfish jerk sometimes in order to feel like you're following that teaching when in fact you are not And this is extremely dangerous
