(edit: replaced wrong image. If you're seeing a Bloodborne meme, the change hasn't synced to you yet)
Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
The part that goes past suspension of disbelief is the child murder scene.
How? It's what his religion demanded. That's classic humanity
A religion he had for what like 2 years, directly opposed to the one he had since childhood, his career, and his own status as a father to be.
Sounds like every Born Again Christian I've ever met
Every born again christrian you've ever met murders 8 grade schoolers?
Honestly a lot of them do tend to be obsessed with the idea.
Correlation and causation and all that. Catholics have an above average science literacy and perhaps enjoy children far too much.
You could just as easily draw a line connecting school shooters to 4-chan, drug use, and/or flat earth theorists. Not every 4-chan user is a mass murderer, not every crack addict wants to ressurect the third reich.
Fuck Evangelicals in particular, tho.
Anakin randomly murdering the children was silly.
“[Frequent] school shootings are just a fact of life”
Yes? If not directly, they support other born agains that do...
Weren’t some of the ISIS Jihadi converts? Not that unbelievable that a recent convert influenced by an evil religious leader would commit atrocities in the name of religion.
People that convert are actually usually more devout than lifelong believers
The guy who brought a rifle to shoot Trump on the golf course voted for him in 2016 according to his social media posts. It would be reasonable to believe he was a conservative his whole life up until a couple years before he believed shooting killing him was the answer.
