In some ways, yes, but Luthen did ultimately want peace.
And this is something I think the sequel trilogy got right: Jedi and Sith ideologies needed to die. If the force is a reflection of balance, the Jedi need to recognize the value of passion within compassion and the sith need to recognize the value of compassion within passion. The strict doctrinal requirements of these religions were the entire cause of the atar wars in the Skywalker Saga
I don't care what anyone says, Rian Johnson ate with that
good post. the Jedi orthodoxy has generally irritated me personally as this half baked "everything is always as it should be" extremist emotional-bypass baloney.
real facts: sometimes shit is fucked!
it seemed like the prequels showed the rigidness of the Jedi, because they could not or would not do shit about anything even as the Galaxy's most obvious coup was unfolding. just sitting around in their groovy 60s chairs in a circle and brow beat junior members for having emotions about heavy shit.
the sith are a dumpster garbage game of musical chairs with like 2 chairs, but their most potent recruitment pipeline is Jedi rigidity.
