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.

MODERATORS
Most of human history doesn't make sense if you scrutinize it enough.
The US military, the strongest army in the world, was defeated by a bunch of rice farmers? Come on, get some better writers.
And the atomic bomb. Clearly the writers didn't know how to end the WW2 story arc so they just came up with this super lazy plot device. And you can see that they don't have any faith into it since they haven't used it ever since, hoping that we would just forget about it
ha! And then the spinoff built up the bomb as the big bad for the whole damn series but we never got a payoff, just a wall falling down. LAZY.
I mean, I guess that was the payoff. Imagine the stakes while the episode air, you think nukes are going to explode but they see that if they fired that they would get destroyed too in the process and decide to make peace
And then, slowly but inevitably, their rule crumble
You could say the same about ewoks.
in the original script of humanity the atomic bomb was supposed to just release glitter but it malfunctioned. Dyslexic Einstein shrugged.
Fair enough.
I mean, when they brought the Russians back as the villains you could really tell they had run out of ideas.
