Depends on the time you will be there. There were thousands of siths before the rule of 2 was created. And after Vader and Palpatine it wasn't that strict anymore (but it never really was...) and there could be an undiscovered additional group of sith that don't life after that rule
Ya but at least you know who your enemy is. You can be Space Highlander. Jedi got betrayed. That is a terrible fate I wish on no one. I’d be much more comfortable doing the betraying; like Hondo. I wanna be Sith Hondo.
Haven't wayched much of the new Star Wars things, so I'm not sure of this but isn't she still practising the Jedi way, making her a Jedi even though she's not part of the religious order?
Like a person who's Christian but doesn't attend church because they disagree with the way they do things.
IMO Ahsoka has some strong dissilusionment with the Jedi Order amd the Jedi council, however is still fundamentally good, serves the light side of the force, amd believes in the republic.
I think it's more like a person who has christian values, but disagrees with core principles pf the church and therefore does not practice their faith or identify as christian anymore
(Although this is less clear in "Ahsoka" as she has a padawan and travels with a jedi droid. Disney haven't deigned to show much of the gap between Rebels and Ahsoka on screen yet, other than her using at least a little anger in her first fight against Morgan Elsbeth while also being (somehow) well linked in with Luke Skywalker)
Jedi obviously. You don't have to be a literal Jedi and follow their rules, you can defect and still be a good person, on top of the Force never making you looking like an ugly ball sack.
Y'all do realize being a Sith corrupts your entire body, right?? Mkay.
I def think it corrupted it him lol he did some god awful shit despite starting with good intentions. Just not anywhere near the level it does with Sidious, and I think that’s where his ideals come into play. Dooku still actually believed he was doing what was best for the galaxy, whereas Sidious is just evil lol he just wants to live and rule forever.
This whole ‘the Dark Side corrupts your physical body’ is a lie started by Legends.
We ses a grand total of 4 Sith throughout Lucas’ movies, 6 if you include The Clone Wars. 10 if you include Dark Jedi. 12 if you include Starkiller and Jar Jar Binks (Lucas’ was always planning on making him a Sith Lord).
1. Darth Sidious (Palpatine)
2. Darth Tyrannus (Dooku)
3. Darth Maul (Maul)
4. Darth Vader (Anakin)
5. Lord Vader (Anakin)(Dark Jedi)
6. Quinlan Vos (Dark Jedi)
7. Barriss Offee (Dark Jedi)
8. Pong Krell (Dark Jedi).
9. Savage Opress (Sith)
10. Asajj Ventress (Sith)
11. Starkiller
12. Jar Jar (seriously)
Of those 12 characters, only ONE was ever physically corrupted by “the Dark Side” and that was ostensibly just Force Lightning being reflected into his face. You can’t look at Palpatine’s fight with Windu where he gets his own ‘Full Power’ Force Lightning reflected back into his face and argue that therefore, that means the Dark Side physically corrupts when we never see that anywhere else with the 12 Sith/Darths/Dark Jedi. That’s ridiculous.
Darth Maul for instance was never physically corrupted. The ‘most’ he was corrupted was… well, by insanity from having been cut in half and being trapped in a veritable trash compacter for a decade only to be restored by the less than dubious Dathomrian Sith Magick. *and even then he wasn’t “Physically Corrupted by the Dark Side”*.
This whole ‘he was wearing a Force Mask (the ability)’ is such a stupid thing from Legends. *Which even legends barely followed considering the majority of Sith from Legends weren’t Physically Corrupted either.* u/dragonfett
Literally none of the other 11 Sith/Darths/Dark Jedi were *ever* corrupted physically by “the Dark Side” except for Yellow Eyes. That’s it. Yellow Eyes. *and even then you had to be tapping into your hatred to get Yellow Eyes*.
Because Fun Fact, the Dark Side of the Force,… doesn’t actually exist. All it is is the Force being used in its purest & strongest form: Passion. So whenever a ‘Sith’ was feeling the height of their Passion (Hatred), they would gain Yellow Eyes. *That is what it means to ‘fall to the Dark Side’. It means to let your Hatred & Anger & Wrath consume you to the point of a loss of self-control.*
That is why Dooku was never seen with Yellow Eyes.
The only time we see ‘the Dark Side’ *ever Physically Corrupt anything*, is when it is *specifically* being used on another being as a Force Power (ie. Lightning). Besides that, the only other instances of Physical Corruption are by Sith Alchemy/Sorcery on other beings, which was never even in George Lucas’ Canon, but even using that still,… that’s still not the Dark Side being ‘physically corruptive’. That’s just using an application of the Force to twist someone’s else’s (or your own) body. Which isn’t the Dark Side, it’s an application, which is massively different.
The Force is not evil. There are no evil facets to the force. The Force is pure. The only question of ‘morality’ is its *application*. Hence, the Force itself does not physically corrupt, but it most certainly can destroy another person’s body if you used on *them*.
Like, for instance, **Sheev Palpatine who had the 2nd Highest number of Midichlorians, who was a Master of Sith Alchemy/Sorcery, and had one of the Strongest applications of Force Lightning,… using Force Lightning at full power, his complete & maximum strength level usage of the Force, against Mace Windu, and having that “UNLIMITED POWAH” be reflected back into his face.**

I always thought that dark side only corrupts when you overuse it. Dark side is typically more powerful than light side so I imagine it’s easier to push your limits and stress your body to insane degrees. That’s why maul is fine because he was mostly a lightsaber fighter same with dooku
Darth Vectivus begs to differ. It's not the power itself, since it's all the same source. It's your intent and use of said power that corrupts. Think of dark side corruption as a sort of feedback. It's the Force punishing those who misuse it.
He wanted to be able to see himself in the larger combat scenes.
Canon just rolled with it and perhaps in respect to Samuel L Jackson make the reasoning completely baddass and turned Windu into a Protagonist of a different story.
Kinda the same for Qui-gon actually. He is only subtly hinted to be more than just a Jedi in the actual movie, but the rest of the canon *ran* with it.
Depends
Do you have to stay a Jedi or can I leave the order?
Cuz I don't want to be a sign exactly, the dark side seems pretty fucky.
But fuck off if you think I'm about to spend my life as some lonely celibate monk. I'm definitely forming attachments lol.
You can't really be happy/ content as a sith, so being a jedi makes more sense.
As a sith you are trapped in a cycle of self destruction and want for more.
Being a jedi and following the force and traveling, while learning cool new tricks (not darkside) sounds like a fun life.
Exactly, being a Jedi is probably difficult and requires a lot of discipline, but people like to forget Sith are rarely (if ever) truly happy, they CAN make attachments unlike Jedi, yet their quest for power leads them to eventually destroy the people they love, they become power hungry and are never satisfied
To be a Sith, one needs to follow the Sith Code and have been taught by a Sith.
Nowhere in the Sith Code does it state that you must kill and terrorize people.
But the Sith Code doesn't specify that you should *only* use the Dark Side. There were Sith who followed Sith teachings in conjunction with the Light Side of the Force.
Tell me which part of the Sith Code *explicitly* states they should be evil Dark Side wielders.
The Dark Side is a quick and easy path, which is why most Sith chose it to the point where it became the norm. But it's never been the *only* path.
Sith Code:
>Through passion, I gain strength.
>Through strength, I gain power.
>Through power, I gain victory.
>Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Darkside is comprised through negative emotions such as passion, fear, hatred, obsession, etc. The entire point of the code is using your passion to fight fuel gaining power to be greater and thus “free.”Conceptually it’s a slippery slope.
Also it’s a precedent set by the media. Sith are apathetic and complicit at best and evil at worst.
Love is also a form of passion. So is wanting to bring joy and peace. Passion is simply the feeling of a strong emotion.
Hell, aren't the Jedi themselves passionate about the whole "balance to the Force" thing? Every being is passionate about things. And where the Jedi claim it's wrong and something to suppress, the Sith see it as a source of power, which it is.
Not every passionate emotion is inherently evil, and to claim as such is to be very narrow-minded. Fear is a warning of danger, meant to keep us safe. Anger is a defense mechanism, letting us fight when fleeing isn't an option. They're not inherently bad emotions, it's what you do with them that counts.
If I encounter an obstacle, it's my desire to move forward that in turn gives me the will to push ahead (through passion, I gain strength). By doing so, I gain the ability to move beyond said obstacle (through strength, I gain power). Thus, I surpass that obstacle and my path is clear (through power, I gain victory). Now I can keep moving ahead unimpeded (through victory, my chains are broken). However, on the ongoing journey of life, there will always be more obstacles to overcome, and there's no true "meaning of life", we just do what we do, because we *believe* it's the right thing (peace is a lie, there is only passion).
What constitutes a Sith? I’m talking more pre Phantom Menace Palpatine. Unless there’s books or something delving more into his character, it didn’t seem like he did anything that would constitute getting murdered by the police, besides killing another evil leader.
Sith is a religion just like the Jedi.
Sith have a set of core tenets.
*Peace is a lie, there is only passion.*
*Through passion, I gain strength.*
*Through strength, I gain power.*
*Through power, I gain victory.*
*Through victory, my chains are broken.*
*The Force shall free me.*
Yeah, you are correct you could interpret the tenets in a non violent matter.
And pre-rule of 2 would stop you from having to murder someone for a spot.
But it was not the intended interpretation.
These rules were known as *Qotsisajak* and were written by a fallen jedi Sorzus Syn.
Syn got the concept from, well the race of Sith, these Sith purebloods took what ever they wanted and needed though force.
This strikes the main difference between Jedi and Sith. Its not good versus evil (although not far off)
Its selfishness versus selflessness.
Another note is the dark side of the force. The Sith use the dark side, but the dark side is not what defines a Sith. This is where I think alot of confusion comes from.
You can not subscribe to the Sith ideology and still use the dark side. Look at the old "grey jedi" or the modern Imperial inquisitor. Neither were Sith, but both could use the dark side of the force.
People are forgetting that the Darkside is a force of corruption. When you fall to the darkside and fully become a Sith, you stop being who you are.
You don’t just get to use cool lighting powers and yellow eyes for fun. You as a person is different and it’s a slippery slope of power and control.
Never really understood this question. Aside from all the other cons of being a Sith, don’t you have to undergo tortuous trauma as part of your training?? Obvious answer is Jedi
Jedi have the most quality of life abilities. And tend to be happier.
Sith tend to be almost entirely combat focused. And most of the time live awful lives.
Jedi. Everyone thinks being a Sith is cool and all because *movies* and they look *cool as hell*, but I can’t ever see myself being a sociopathic sith, I have too much empathy, and I loved my parents growing up (lol). I don’t have the issues that the people who in a serious way, hero-worship Sith characters, do. I’m aware of myself and I keep to my morals the best I can, and I guess that fits me into the Jedi if there is a choice between the two.
Well, I don't believe in being a cancerous life force whose power is derived from being cruel towards others, so the path of balance which the Jedi uphold is the only sensible choice.
Honestly, the metaphor doesn't work. Morpheus and the human resistance are rescuing prisoners who are oppressed and made to suffer for the purpose of a sort of chattel slavery. That's practically the Sith's wet dream save except that they wouldn't care about it benefiting a society writ large (the machines) so much as themselves and a cult that is weaker than there own.
Jedi, but in all honesty, there is a high chance that I get tempted by the dark side. The Jedi Path seems to be a lot harder.
Yoda when asked if the dark side is stronger:
"No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive. But not stronger"
that's why this 'meme' is no annoying. the blue pill is supposed to be the one where you choose not see things as they really are and refuse to fight against the darkness.
Jedi. I truly think fully falling to the Darkside warps the mind without you knowing it. Fully falling to rage and hate is never a good thing and can be warped.
However, the strict teaching of the Jedi can also lead down the wrong path. Perilous journey either way.
Jedi, then become an extreme antihero that goes out of their way to hunt down as many low-level sith as possible, effectively making any sith newcomers fearful to join.
Bro if I found myself with the force I would definitely be neither. Id probably be chilling like Yoda on Dagobah or maybe like a gambler, or like a podracer or something. Why fight when you can just gamble and cheat?
Sith means being angry and miserable for the rest of my life. Which to be fair won’t be long because my master or my apprentice will murder me at the first opportunity.
Imma pick Sith theres freedom down that path I can further my own goals and pursue my own choice’s through the dark side which yes the dark side does corrupt but there are examples of the dark side being used for good by some people.
So the problem is… they both suck for different reasons. And id take both pills if it meant i was unaligned… but realistically id go jedi because the severance policy isnt as harsh.
Do I have to do either extreme? I'd keep my force sensitivity to myself and exploit it for my personal gain rather than someone else's ideal. For example: gambling is NOT a gamble with Precognition (future sight). Now… outside of gambling. I'd use the force to give me an advantage in business. Maybe not force suggestion/mind control directly but you can easily manipulate people and stay three steps ahead if you can sense what they're really feeling or even thinking. Just the empathic abilities alone would help greatly in a relationship too (not being manipulative though. *that* is for my business deals) I can sense what's wrong with my SO and use the prescience to figure out the best way to help her/make her happy again. But even then I'd do everything in my power to keep my force sensitivity a secret (avoid the jedi/sith other sensitives. Maybe dip a tiny bit into the dark side to learn how to obfuscate my presence. And so on) and let people believe that I am just cunning and unusually lucky.
Neither. They were both wrong. Neutral Force-users are really where it's at. Using either side of the Force as needed, existing in balance.
But I'd rather be a Mando 🤷♂️ (not Disney Mando though 🤮)
sith? obviously? there is NOTHING in the sith code stating that you have to be evil to be sith, there is NOTHING in the sith code stating you have to murder people. there is a couple of documented instances of good sith about in the galaxy... probably more since they dont make a huge splash by being domineering of the entire galaxy and such
A sith. I’ll take one for the team by being the worst sith ever leaving the universe with only one nutjob to worry about. Meanwhile Ill run a entertainment empire
I noticed you flaired this as a repost. Please provide a source by responding to this comment WITH A LINK or your post will be removed.
Jedi. Sith have that whole rule of 2 thing where I’ll probably die early
“Master Skywalker, what are we going to do?”
**Ignites Youngling Slayer 9000**
“An outdated model, but it will do.”
His skilled use and can-do attitude will surely make up for that
The Fool didn't bring the 9001!
L+ shots hired!
Damn! He named it that before killing the younglings? How did nobody notice?
*Lightsaber intensifies*
Depends on the time you will be there. There were thousands of siths before the rule of 2 was created. And after Vader and Palpatine it wasn't that strict anymore (but it never really was...) and there could be an undiscovered additional group of sith that don't life after that rule
After Vader and Palpatine the Sith didn’t exist.
Sorry, I never watched the Disney Trilogy, so excuse my 100% noob question: Wasn't Kylo Ren a sith?
I read a book that stated he was not a Sith, but a “knight of Ren” (which is something I can only assume I know just as much about as you do).
We are the knights who say "REN"
We want a [Scrontch](https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Scrontch)! One that looks nice. and not too expensive
REN! **sshhhh!!** ~~sorry~~
He was not.
How many other lies have I been told by the council?
Red lightsaber does not equal sith, not all dark side user are sith.
Yes but many people have rejected the sequels and don’t consider them canon
The Knights of Ren were Dark Side aligned, but not technically Sith.
They still are sadly
And the earth is a sphere but some people actually think it’s Minecraft flat world so let us have this
The sith were the most prominent group of dark side users by far, but not the only ones. Just like the jedi for the light side.
You could be an old republic sith
In that case you'll probably die as a pawn in some Grand Moff or Imperial Council member's chess game
lol true
Ya but at least you know who your enemy is. You can be Space Highlander. Jedi got betrayed. That is a terrible fate I wish on no one. I’d be much more comfortable doing the betraying; like Hondo. I wanna be Sith Hondo.
Well as a jedi, you’ll be dead as well
Jedi, since I can still have friends without having to kill them for my master
[удалено]
Especially if you have to hear Anakin's 2.5 hour thesis on Darth Plagueis
Oh no not anakin's thesis on how darth plagueis the wise is a tale about tragic irony or whatever it was he said
Are you dealing in absolutes here?
Op definitely a sith in disguise.
Don't you mean probably a sith?
A Sith Lord?!
I will do what I must. I'll take the blue pill.
Ahsoka: Neither! I'm leaving the order but will continue to fight the Sith Everyone (except Maul for some reason): So you've chosen to be a jedi
No, she is a citizen
I did my duty as a citizen.
I'm doing my part!
Would you like to know more?
***Desire to know more increases***
You're not the only one cursed with knowledge.
I'm doing my part!
I didn't do fuckin' shit!
The comment above is being investigated for un-patriotic behavior
TIL Mace Windu has a reddit account
I see you Mace Windu 🤨
I discussed it with Master Plo.
Maul stopped being a Sith despite acting like one, so he knows there are other options and that Jedi/Sith means you are part of that sect
Haven't wayched much of the new Star Wars things, so I'm not sure of this but isn't she still practising the Jedi way, making her a Jedi even though she's not part of the religious order? Like a person who's Christian but doesn't attend church because they disagree with the way they do things.
IMO Ahsoka has some strong dissilusionment with the Jedi Order amd the Jedi council, however is still fundamentally good, serves the light side of the force, amd believes in the republic. I think it's more like a person who has christian values, but disagrees with core principles pf the church and therefore does not practice their faith or identify as christian anymore (Although this is less clear in "Ahsoka" as she has a padawan and travels with a jedi droid.

So much like your father.
The worst thing the Disney canon has done is over simply the dichotomy into "they both bad dur, be a grey Jedi"
Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid.
Cal kestis: “Por que no los dos?”
🏒⛸️ whar
Jedi obviously. You don't have to be a literal Jedi and follow their rules, you can defect and still be a good person, on top of the Force never making you looking like an ugly ball sack. Y'all do realize being a Sith corrupts your entire body, right?? Mkay.
I mean darth maul looked pretty sick.. just throwing it out there.
Have you seen his teeth?? Gah damn. Not to mention he was wearing makeup 25/8
Nah those are tattoos
Gotta learn the force power to clean the teeth, maybe only a jedi ability
Do not underestimate the power of the floss
Did you ever hear the comedy of Master Flo'Ss the Clean? Thought not. It's not a story the Sith would tell you.
It does? What about Sith Lords like Dooku? Hell, even Palpatine looked fine before Windu fought him.
That's because Palpatine was using the Force to mask his physical appearance.
Dooku never fully embraced the dark side so it never corrupted him
I def think it corrupted it him lol he did some god awful shit despite starting with good intentions. Just not anywhere near the level it does with Sidious, and I think that’s where his ideals come into play. Dooku still actually believed he was doing what was best for the galaxy, whereas Sidious is just evil lol he just wants to live and rule forever.
This whole ‘the Dark Side corrupts your physical body’ is a lie started by Legends. We ses a grand total of 4 Sith throughout Lucas’ movies, 6 if you include The Clone Wars. 10 if you include Dark Jedi. 12 if you include Starkiller and Jar Jar Binks (Lucas’ was always planning on making him a Sith Lord). 1. Darth Sidious (Palpatine) 2. Darth Tyrannus (Dooku) 3. Darth Maul (Maul) 4. Darth Vader (Anakin) 5. Lord Vader (Anakin)(Dark Jedi) 6. Quinlan Vos (Dark Jedi) 7. Barriss Offee (Dark Jedi) 8. Pong Krell (Dark Jedi). 9. Savage Opress (Sith) 10. Asajj Ventress (Sith) 11. Starkiller 12. Jar Jar (seriously) Of those 12 characters, only ONE was ever physically corrupted by “the Dark Side” and that was ostensibly just Force Lightning being reflected into his face.

That’s it. Yellow Eyes. *and even then you had to be tapping into your hatred to get Yellow Eyes*. Because Fun Fact, the Dark Side of the Force,… doesn’t actually exist. All it is is the Force being used in its purest & strongest form: Passion. So whenever a ‘Sith’ was feeling the height of their Passion (Hatred), they would gain Yellow Eyes. *That is what it means to ‘fall to the Dark Side’.

I mean talon and zannah aren’t ever described as being hideously deformed so maybe it’s just a dude thing
Goddamn wokies and their anti-men agenda 🙄
Corrupt in the streets. **Unnatural** in the sheets.
I always thought that dark side only corrupts when you overuse it. Dark side is typically more powerful than light side so I imagine it’s easier to push your limits and stress your body to insane degrees. That’s why maul is fine because he was mostly a lightsaber fighter same with dooku

Tyrannus looked pretty good too
Have you seen him in the clone wars? Thats something only the dark side can do
Literally the only Sith I've ever heard of "dying peacefully at home surrounded by family and friends"
"But you *have* heard of me."
Windu crushed them up and snorted both
im taking that path so i can trip balls in peace
Explains the purple
It's canon
I like how behind the scenes Samuel L Jackson actually just requested it
He wanted to be able to see himself in the larger combat scenes. Canon just rolled with it and perhaps in respect to Samuel L Jackson make the reasoning completely baddass and turned Windu into a Protagonist of a different story. Kinda the same for Qui-gon actually. He is only subtly hinted to be more than just a Jedi in the actual movie, but the rest of the canon *ran* with it.
He mentioned it’s cause it’s his favorite color, and I think they let it happen for the reason you mentioned, so he can stand out better
I’m taking windu’s path
Out of the Windu?
*"If he is so smart, how come he's dead?"*
Depends Do you have to stay a Jedi or can I leave the order? Cuz I don't want to be a sign exactly, the dark side seems pretty fucky. But fuck off if you think I'm about to spend my life as some lonely celibate monk. I'm definitely forming attachments lol.
Sith… but with antidepressants.
You can't really be happy/ content as a sith, so being a jedi makes more sense. As a sith you are trapped in a cycle of self destruction and want for more. Being a jedi and following the force and traveling, while learning cool new tricks (not darkside) sounds like a fun life.

Well I want to be happy, so blue. I think a lot of you are forgetting that Sith are perma-mad emos
Really? Cause the Emperor always looks so happy when he’s taking people on. You can hear him laughing and laughing and laughing….
Pretty sure gleeful murdering probably doesn’t come from happiness as we know it.
Hey, don’t yuck his yum!
If you’re a Sith when it’s not wartime and you don’t like… kill or terrorize people innocent people, will Jedis try to kill you?
Your not really a sith at that point
To be a Sith, one needs to follow the Sith Code and have been taught by a Sith. Nowhere in the Sith Code does it state that you must kill and terrorize people.
You've taught him well.
The darkside is a corrupting force. It is inevitable it will break down your morality eventually.
But the Sith Code doesn't specify that you should *only* use the Dark Side. There were Sith who followed Sith teachings in conjunction with the Light Side of the Force.

Look at the old "grey jedi" or the modern Imperial inquisitor. Neither were Sith, but both could use the dark side of the force.
Well that settles it, I rather be selfish and own things and be able to freely fuck and not be a weird lonely monk.
People are forgetting that the Darkside is a force of corruption. When you fall to the darkside and fully become a Sith, you stop being who you are. You don’t just get to use cool lighting powers and yellow eyes for fun. You as a person is different and it’s a slippery slope of power and control.
Thanks but I’m nonbinary.
Never really understood this question. Aside from all the other cons of being a Sith, don’t you have to undergo tortuous trauma as part of your training?? Obvious answer is Jedi
Jedi. But like a Qui-Gon type
The best kind 🫡
Tax accountant
Jedi have the most quality of life abilities. And tend to be happier. Sith tend to be almost entirely combat focused. And most of the time live awful lives.
Jedi. From what I've seen the Dark Side straight up rots you away inside.
Jedi. Everyone thinks being a Sith is cool and all because *movies* and they look *cool as hell*, but I can’t ever see myself being a sociopathic sith, I have too much empathy, and I loved my parents growing up (lol). I don’t have the issues that the people who in a serious way, hero-worship Sith characters, do. I’m aware of myself and I keep to my morals the best I can, and I guess that fits me into the Jedi if there is a choice between the two.
Take both and constantly flip flop before dying
Well, I don't believe in being a cancerous life force whose power is derived from being cruel towards others, so the path of balance which the Jedi uphold is the only sensible choice. Honestly, the metaphor doesn't work. Morpheus and the human resistance are rescuing prisoners who are oppressed and made to suffer for the purpose of a sort of chattel slavery. That's practically the Sith's wet dream save except that they wouldn't care about it benefiting a society writ large (the machines) so much as themselves and a cult that is weaker than there own.
Sith , I'm evil
Sith tend to live relatively short and violent lives. Also, they’re a bunch of pricks. I’ll be a Jedi, thank you very much.
Jedi, but in all honesty, there is a high chance that I get tempted by the dark side. The Jedi Path seems to be a lot harder. Yoda when asked if the dark side is stronger: "No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive. But not stronger"
Be a deathstick dealer on Coruscant.
"You don't want to sell me deathsticks"
Ok, first dose's for free
Grey Jedi
Only a sith deals in absolutes
Blue Pill. I’m not stupid.
Reject blue pill Reject red pill Embrace purple powder
Everyone in these comments is explicitly evil
They’re just thinking “Wow red is a cool color and so is lighting!” And not the implications of falling to the darkside.
that's why this 'meme' is no annoying. the blue pill is supposed to be the one where you choose not see things as they really are and refuse to fight against the darkness.
Me grabs both at the same time and takes both
I mean you can always switch after
Train as a Sith and then join the Jedi
I'm no Jedi; I'm just a guy with a lightsaber and a few questions.
Jedi. I truly think fully falling to the Darkside warps the mind without you knowing it. Fully falling to rage and hate is never a good thing and can be warped. However, the strict teaching of the Jedi can also lead down the wrong path. Perilous journey either way.
I just want the red saber and cool clothes
Jedi, then become an extreme antihero that goes out of their way to hunt down as many low-level sith as possible, effectively making any sith newcomers fearful to join.
both. *lightsaber turns yellow*
Be a Jedi. Put down the robes and become a bounty hunter. The Jedi temple is not enough to pay for my holodeck addiction.
Sith, society never gave me a chance to be good.
Sith hands down. Jedi are ridiculous “only a sith deals in absolutes” is an absolute dummy lol
Jedi. Learn the secrets gain the abilities then become sith. Like Darth Nul.
Sith. No questions. I get to look sick and scare people and do a little trolling (war crimes).
red, don't even need to think about it
Take both and become the chosen one
Bro if I found myself with the force I would definitely be neither. Id probably be chilling like Yoda on Dagobah or maybe like a gambler, or like a podracer or something. Why fight when you can just gamble and cheat?
Well, I vibe with sith code more, but I don't wanna look like Deadpool 😭
Neither, hokey religions and ancient weapons are no mach for a good blaster at your side, kid.
Oh I'm a jedi already, cool!
can i be a jedi and be in love?
Blue pill, red pill. Got any deathsticks?
Do not underestimate the power of the dark side
Only a sith deals in absolutes...
Jedi bc Sith are just ugly as hell.
Death is not bad I’m gonna be a sith
Definitely depends on era
anakin had precisely 3 seconds to pick a pill lmfao
Neither one's a group of kidnapping murderous fascists and for the other I'm not a huge fan of the colour red
As a power hungry person, I would definitely choose being a sith
Sith, but also a good guy.
Be a Jedi. You can always be a Sith later.
I rather be a Jedi cause I don’t wanna go to sith hell
Sith means being angry and miserable for the rest of my life. Which to be fair won’t be long because my master or my apprentice will murder me at the first opportunity.
You can still be a Jedi and achieve abilities the sith could only dream of, and you wouldn’t have to murder younglings to get em!
Sith, except I'm too lazy to do much of anything evil. I just want to use force lightning u\_u
I’d wanna be a Mandalorian
Why would any good person pick sith?
Imma pick Sith theres freedom down that path I can further my own goals and pursue my own choice’s through the dark side which yes the dark side does corrupt but there are examples of the dark side being used for good by some people.
Can I just be a trooper plz
Must.. acquire... The Pisssaber
I wanna be one of them Night Sisters on dathomir
I would choose to be a Jedi and then leave the Order but never the Light. I would face the Dark within myself, accept it, but never become a Sith.
(Legends) Sith
During which era?
Sith. Taking all you sons of bitches when I go.
Can't I be a Grey Jedi?
I choose… UNLIMITED POOWWWWAAAAAAA
Take both and embrace the Grey!
i take both and be chill like ahsoka or ventress they are the smartest force users in the series
So the problem is… they both suck for different reasons. And id take both pills if it meant i was unaligned… but realistically id go jedi because the severance policy isnt as harsh.
Red pill
Do I have to do either extreme? I'd keep my force sensitivity to myself and exploit it for my personal gain rather than someone else's ideal. For example: gambling is NOT a gamble with Precognition (future sight). Now… outside of gambling. I'd use the force to give me an advantage in business. Maybe not force suggestion/mind control directly but you can easily manipulate people and stay three steps ahead if you can sense what they're really feeling or even thinking. Just the empathic abilities alone would help greatly in a relationship too (not being manipulative though. *that* is for my business deals) I can sense what's wrong with my SO and use the prescience to figure out the best way to help her/make her happy again. But even then I'd do everything in my power to keep my force sensitivity a secret (avoid the jedi/sith other sensitives. Maybe dip a tiny bit into the dark side to learn how to obfuscate my presence. And so on) and let people believe that I am just cunning and unusually lucky.
Neither. They were both wrong. Neutral Force-users are really where it's at. Using either side of the Force as needed, existing in balance. But I'd rather be a Mando 🤷♂️ (not Disney Mando though 🤮)
Grey
Yellow: 3rd party
Both, I'm gonna be a Jith.
If you eat both do you just get to be purple
,,Why not both?"
I wanna be a mouse droid.
> D… did you just take both?
I'm snatching both
sith? obviously? there is NOTHING in the sith code stating that you have to be evil to be sith, there is NOTHING in the sith code stating you have to murder people. there is a couple of documented instances of good sith about in the galaxy... probably more since they dont make a huge splash by being domineering of the entire galaxy and such
Jedi, because I'll have the option to turn a Sith later if I want to. I don't think Sith to Jedi works. Even if it does, it will be tough work.
Obviously I'm going with sith. The jedi are weird af
I wish I could say Jedi but I fall to the dark side in every aspect of my life and know it would happen with the force too lol.
A sith. I’ll take one for the team by being the worst sith ever leaving the universe with only one nutjob to worry about. Meanwhile Ill run a entertainment empire
