In some ways it portrays the fecklessness of liberal civility politics. Instead of freeing the slaves they buy only the child slave and leave his mother to die in slavery. Institutions are crumbling from inside and out and it is easily kicked down at the right kind of push in a crisis.
I don't understand how you can watch the prequels and come away thinking that the Jedi are enlightened. In the first trilogy the only real exposure to Jedi was Yoda and Obi wan teaching Luke, but when you see how that works out in practice it is a farce.
The Kingdom of Conscience will be exactly as it is now. Jedi don't really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Jediism isn't change -- not even incremental change. It is control. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Republican spaceships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in Jediism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Coruscant.
Also, despite giving Luke the training he needs, even in the original trilogy the Jedi constantly lie and are wrong.
Okay, Obi-Wan lying about Vader killing his father and not telling him Leia was his sister were actually retcons by the later films, but both Obi-Wan and Yoda tell him not to save his friends in Cloud City, and later they both tell him he needs to kill Vader when the Emperor is only defeated by sparing him.
