I agree on this but I find it hard to believe there are only ever 2 sith
playstation360
Dangerous, if misread, the prophecy can be.
Onionszs
Arbitrarily drawing a line where there are 2 jedi and 2 sith. Why not draw that line at the point when Vader kills the emperor?
IfightAboutCoorsLight
That was always my theory. 10000 space wizards without an enemy can get pretty bored.
n3ckr0mantic
This is always how I saw it. It depends on your point of view
subliminalmuse
I think the Jedis were the unbalance. They needed the dark side to bring balance back to the force.
DrPepperHas24Flavors
Someone needs to do their research....
searrowsmith
Star wars fans, crucify me if im wrong, but werent most jedi before that jedi order more gray with the force. Like Qui Gon?
ARobotThatLikesEatingPickles
For awhile yeah but out of fear of them delving too deep into the dark side they banned such practices

But the younglings!
Imawareagle
What about the force unleashed story line? He's a third Sith, not a Sith Lord, but another Sith.
anonnona887
The Jedi and Sith are literally just two of the same religions fighting because of slightly different views. One tries to suppress 1/2
anonnona887
Emotions and the other relies/let's their emotions control them. Both are wrong yet they both need each other to survive/find synergy
Littleprof
Damn, you got me there.
Chewthestitches
Y'all need grey jedi. Revan for the win!
hijix
"only sith speak in absolutes"
ARobotThatLikesEatingPickles
Well plus the few hundred surviving Jedi hardly talked about, all the dark Jedi, the Inquisitors used by the empire, the dark side assassins
ARobotThatLikesEatingPickles
Oh and Ahsoka Tano who was technically a grey Jedi.
KujiOkashii
That's if you see the Jedi and Sith as being two sides of one coin rather than the coin being the Jedi and the Sith being rust on the coin.
Adthay
thank you, the way the jedi see balance is light side only and all dark side is corruption, because an equal amount of good and evil sucks
LTCmdrTomDodge
Found the Rebel scum.
KujiOkashii
Guilty as charged, buckethead!
ianrl337
yep, and people get annoyed with my when I call the rebels the bad guys to. Come on, they are terrorists fighting a duly elected government
SleeperXib
THIS. ^^
nostetselyk
The Jedi wanted to assassinate Palpatine, an elected official, because they suspected that he followed a different religion.

TheEmpireDidNothingWrong.
BustedTuna
Yeah, fuck those guys fighting space Hitler.
keepScrolliing
By planet extermination, prisoners and I forgot cruelty to any specie.. so yeah.. elected
ianrl337
But if the rebels weren't fighting would any of that had happened?
KujiOkashii
Yes.
ARobotThatLikesEatingPickles
Actually it would have, it's well known the empire had heavy racism against all non-human species, even before the rebellion.
nycterelis
Most of it is attributed to the emperor.
SankingDragon
Yeah no not elected. Also the Empire was literally founded on slavery and oppression of aliens.
ianrl337
Wasn't it founded out of the republic fight against the separatists droid armies and the Jedi attacking chancellor Palpatine?
ianrl337
And the Jedi weren't an oppressive regime?
SankingDragon
The Jedi literally weren't a government entity. They were a private philanthropic organization.
ianrl337
A armed religious organization that taught children they shouldn't fall in love, or have passion of any kind. It's all point of view.
Mynamewillbethenametorulethemall
But the senate was dissolved. There were no elections.
ianrl337
He was voted into office and given emergency powers by a motion by representative Jar Jar Binks of Naboo and a vote by the senate.
jsktrogdor
That entire plot line was ripped off from the rise of Adolf Hitler. You're making the argument that Hitler was the good guy.
ianrl337
I'm not saying anything about him.I'm talking about a completely fictional story about a fictional person. Lets not bring Hitler into this.
jsktrogdor
Your argument is that because Palpatine came to power through relatively democratic principles, he's morally justified in doing evil things.
TheBlondSwede
Jar Jar really was the worst..
Mynamewillbethenametorulethemall
And never gave back those powers, which was part of the negotiations for his gaining of the powers.
Gegenschein
All you gotta do is keep the 'emergency' going and you're golden
Crumpus
... by staging a rebellion! Genius!
browsib
And then ordered the execution of all Jedi and blew up a planet
ianrl337
Did he? He enacted a protocol from a threat. The Jedi went up to his office and attacked him. I heard Alderan was an industrial accident?
psionoblast
The jedi went to his office to arrest him and he resisted. They literally said "in the name of the galactic senate you are under arrest"
texaswriter
Alderaan shot first
EmsCSlammer
Yeah, and the jedi council was as bad as the sith too! They wanted to kill an elected official without trial!
KujiOkashii
Actually true, this is why the Jedi Order failed, they truly had lost sight of right and wrong.
EmsCSlammer
Yep, once you adopt the mindset that people are "too dangerous to be kept alive" you're as evil as the sith
KujiOkashii
Maybe not evil, but you're definitely not good anymore. It's not good to be so black and white, since "only a Sith, deals in absolutes"
EmsCSlammer
But saying that only siths deal in absolutes is, itself, an absolute!
