Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

IMPORTANT
Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

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.

I firmly believe that one of the reasons we are where we are is because people have never believed that things could get like this. They truly believed that we would have bread and circuses forever no matter who was in power. (See your local idiot who say stupid ass things like "all politicians are bad so I just don't bother voting) And they believed that the only thing that would change would be little things that they personally care about (I.E. abortion or their personal taxes going down or the deficit, which most of them don't know what it is or means yet they bring it up to sound smarter than they are). They did not consider that there was any way the president could do any of the things that Trump has done. This includes Democrats and liberals and even leftists to a certain degree. No one truly believed that somebody could go for such a power grab as the President of the United States. Even now there are people who don't believe that there's any way they could lose their right to vote. As Trump is constantly attempting to push through his Save Act which would curtail tens of millions of people's ability to vote if allowed to be signed into law.
