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):

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.

This is why I like Andor and Rogue One best these days. A rebellion is a messy human affair with lots of wanton death and suffering. Trying to ground that and show the moral dilemma and the characters struggling with it instead of plastering over it with cheering teenagers makes a better show.
@kata1yst @aeronmelon i forgive Rebels because the gang is:
- A trained Jedi. Well, padawan senior, but trained unlike Rey.
- One of the best pilots of her time
- A mandalorian (who's also force sensitive? It's a retcon tho, so doesn't really count)
- A giant bear-like alien
- Kid with plot armor who becomes a jedi with even more plot armor
- Chopper.
They are so fucking OP (and isolated from the rest of the rebelion) they shouldn't realistically have problems with outer ring imperials
Sabine's not a natural Force-sensitive. Ahsoka put her money where the Council's mouth was about the Force being in all living things and spent years getting her to the same level as an untrained Force-sensitive child.
I didn't remember Sabine being Force sensitive. Is that in Rebels proper? Might need to rewatch.
Some time after Rebels but before Ahsoka (the show, that is), Ahsoka took Sabine as her padawan despite Sabine not being Force-sensitive. Sabine eventually quit due to frustration over not getting anywhere, but had actually picked up a rudamentary ability to sense things through the Force even if she couldn't actively use it. After all, the Force is in everyone, as the Jedi like to mention. During the Ahsoka show, she learns how to use it actively in a die-or-fly situation, but she's still at a very basic level.
Basically, Ahsoka and Sabine proved normals could learn to use the Force with a combination of a thorough understanding of the underlying principles and stubborn determination. The threat of death may have also played a role.
Luthen's people are trained spies. Saw's people are trained soldier with guerrilla warfare knowledge from Saw(trained by Anakin and Ahsoka). Ghost crew is like super soldiers specialists doing cargo transport for the rebellion.
