Emperordmb
This is not a troll thread, it is something I am legitimately pointing out. Despite their wisdom, the great leaders among the Jedi can be pretty ****ing stupid sometimes...
First of all, let us examine the genius idea to walk aboard the Emperor Vitiate's space station and try and convert him...
Kaedan: "trying to convert the Emperor is a stupid ****ing idea"
Chul: "I had a vision of the Hero falling to the Dark Side, you can't do this"
Braga: "NAAAWWWWW we got dis yo! We gon strut in, politely ask the Emperor to come with us, and make him a good guy. It'll be a piece of cake!"
Outcome: Braga's striketeam gets shitstomped and mindraped by the Emperor.
Or how about the Jedi's refusal to believe the possibility that even one Sith Lord had survived...
Johun: "Some outlaws instantly surrendered to us and asked for help after a Sith killed some of them"
Farfalla: "They all died in the cave!!!! These outlaws are just trying to avoid getting in trouble"
Johun: "Maybe not all of the sith weren't in the cave, it's entirely possible that not every single sith lord in the galaxy was there. The outlaws also came to us for help."
Farfalla: "NAWWWW!!!!! Dey all dead!!! You just bein emotional!"
Outcome: The Sith are allowed to flourish and thrive in secret for thousands of years before wiping out the Jedi Order in the Great Jedi Purge.
Or the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when pondering Dooku's words.
Obi-wan: "Should we look into what Dooku said about the Dark Lord controlling the Senate."
Yoda: "No! Lying Dooku is! Look into this deeper, we should not."
Outcome: Sidious ends up gathering a **** ton of political power, and the Great Jedi Purge happens.
Or the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when trying to capture Darth Maul.
Windu: "If Darth Maul knows the identity of the Dark Lord, then his capture is far too important to leave to Obi-wan alone. We should send somebody with him."
Yoda: "No! Select the best fit Jedi to accompany him we will not. Sense I do that he will get help from some random person. Yes, best that is for the Galaxy."
...
Obi-wan: "I think we're outmatched."
Outcome: Obi-wan gets captured, beat the **** up, and fails to capture Darth Maul and learn the identity of the Dark Lord.
Or the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when deciding to stop trying to capture Darth Maul.
Palpatine: "Stop searching for Maul. The war is far more important. We should just let him have free realm in the underworld. Come on guys!"
Yoda: "Makes sense that does. Have any useful information relating to the identity of the Dark Lord, he must not. No extremely valuable information by capturing him, will we gain."
Obi-wan: "Leaving Darth Maul to gain power through the underworld is a stupid idea."
Yoda: "Clouded by this your mind is."
Outcome: Darth Maul with his free reign takes control of Mandalore and about two-thousand other systems, the Jedi fail to learn the identity of the Dark Lord, and the Great Jedi Purge happens.
Or the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when handling the inhibitor chip crisis.
Palpatine: "I know you wanted to study the chips yourselves, but we looked into it. There was a parasite that caused their chips to malfunction, and that's why Tup developed a compulsion to kill Jedi, and why Fives thought I was planning on killing all the Jedi for some reason. There is no need to look further into this is there?"
Yoda: "No, need to look into this more, we do not."
Outcome: The inhibitor chips stay in, the Jedi don't find out about the plot against them, and the Great Jedi Purge happens.
Or the grand wisdom of the Council during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when realizing that the Sith were the ones who gave them their army which they depended upon and trusted.
Obi-wan: "Dooku is Tyranus."
Windu: "This is disturbing."
Yoda: "Make a big deal out of or look deeper into this, we should not."
Outcome: The Jedi fail to discover the Sith plot, they continue to place their trust in the clones, and the Great Jedi Purge happens.
Or the grand wisdom of the Jedi Grand Master during "the Golden age" of the Jedi when finding out that the Jedi are all going to die.
Windu: "What did you find out."
Yoda: "Not tell you I will that you are going to die. Make up some bullshit about us winning this war and all wars, I will."
Outcome: Yoda fails to warn his order of their impending demise, and the Great Jedi Purge happens.
I mean honestly, it's no wonder that an Order of ten thousand Jedi was wiped out by the scheming and machinations of only about thirty Sith.
