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:

  1. 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.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. 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!

  4. 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.

  5. 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).

  6. 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.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

Why would he look at security footage? He's not a cop from the 80s, he just commands his army to find those. He's not evil enought to micromanage.

Levels of Evil

Level I - burn kittens and watch them suffer
Level II - build a space weapon so massive it blows up planets
Level III - micromanage your minions and review security footage

Imagine standing around during guard duty and Darth Vader calls up saying if you have time to lean you have time to clean.

Let's touch base on this at a later date and see if we can really drill down and get our ducks in a row. I don't have the bandwidth right now, so we'll circle back now that it's on my radar.

There was an old YouTube series about this called Chad Vader: Day Shift Manager

Level IV - Negotiations of trade route duty and tariffs in bad faith

Level V - Sand.

Surely there must have been at least a few kittens (or their Star Wars equivalent) on Alderaan... I feel like that would make Level I a subset of Level II by definition.

But they didn't watch kittens suffer. Yuge difference.

TIL my boss is more evil than Darth Vader.

Unironically, somewhat credible supervillains back then where a lot less cruel than many managers nowdays.
