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):

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:

  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.

I like star wars, but people choosing to dress up as the Nazis always confuses me.

  1. They're fictional
  2. They look really cool

There's a subset that are a little too fascinated with the image of the Empire. Same with the Zeon fans.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well, in the original trilogy they really didn't outright do anything we can clearly point to as wrong (except for blowing up a planet). We get very little information on either the rebellion or the empire except they're the good guys or bad guys.

Star Wars in general has this problem where the good guys are squeaky clean and the bad guys are comic book villains without any background. That's why Andor is the best thing to happen to Star Wars at least since Disney purchased them, if not ever. It actually fills out why the rebellion exists and what they have to do to survive. They aren't these perfect good guys anymore and we get to see how boring the evil of the empire actually is, and how willing so many people are to follow along as long as it benefits them.

To be fair zeon is arguably just as evil as the earth federation so it's either be a fan of the boys in derpy guntanks or of the men in zakus

I once walked into a full gundam panel and the panelists had gotten everyone to do the Zeon salute. You can be a fan of gundam, the characters and the robots without picking a side.

And also called certain troops during WW1 (that's where the name comes from afaik)

Who the fuck capitalizes “BIO”?? It stand for one word not three, the fuck?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Obviously BIO stands for Biography Iography Ography

Time to bust out the Youngling Slayer 9000 and send this kid to The Void

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Void is actually the name of the landfill where I bury the bodies I mean what?

I have incorporated this as a fable in my personal philosophy, but I also really like youngling jokes.

This reminds me of that time Kanye West gave that young upcommer Paul McCartney a boost by having him guest on a song.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I don't think they called him young, but yeah. That shit was hilarious 😂

Why are you calling another skin in Fortnite?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I don't have a Fortnite skin, it was removed when I was little

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Why don't we just shorten that to Forskin. It's so much easier to type and not confusing.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

He doesn't play Fortnite you idiot, he's a former Nazi.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

A good opportunity to teach a youngling about the force
