Well, okay...I don't stan them.
But I have mixed feelings about them.
As a kid I was really into Star Wars and looked up to the Jedi, so I think it's a hold over from that.
The Jedi are flawed, foolish, short-sighted and kind of cowardly (among other things) and The Republic is a stagnant beasts with an inefficient anachronistic and byzantine system where the worst kind of poverty has existed for millennia.
...But I still kind of like them, despite their tragic faults.
Well...Idk if I like The Republic as depicted in Star Wars, in some ways I hate it.
But the idea of a galactic society where hundreds if not thousands of peoples and cultures are brought together to coexist is one I really like, and I can understand in the early days why the Jedi would of supported the creation of such an organization.
Of course it is just that, an idea , and the lore is filled with the many ways The Republic as a bourgeoise order failed these ideals.
Ultimately I think the Jedi erred in so closely associating themselves with and mooring themselves to a state.
Their understanding of the force and themselves is also incomplete or lacking, I think.
But at the end of the day I still like the little space wizard monks.
I respect their aim in controlling their emotions (even if it often materializes in suppression instead) and in being diplomats and peacekeepers for the galaxy (even if it often materializes in propping up an unjust status quo).
But now I am starting to ramble about children's media, which is an unforgivable crime, so I'll stop.
It's so much worse than that. In the game it's supposed to be that she isn't Jedi or Sith, she's in the middle/beyond all that. I think the term was "gray jedi".
Yeah except she's clearly full of shit and trying to manipulate you to the dark side by telling you that morality is fake, actually.
Doesn't she bust out three red light saber in the end? Her name is literally Darth Traya, Sith Lord of Betrayal.
It's been a long time since I played the game but I remember being thoroughly unimpressed with her "Both sides" bullshit. She was just trying to justify her own failure to, you know, not be a shitty person.
Sorry I misread your response and got aggro. I hate the "Grey Jedi" idea. It smacks of edgelord ancapl.... eeugh,, it just steams by britches thinking about it.
