The Empire Was Right in Star Wars

- The video is done in fun to show both how propaganda can be used to spin anything and that there are some plot holes in Star Wars. Rebuttal and sequel videos are being planned, so feel free to leave a comment and I may discuss it in long form.
For over four decades, there has been debate on who the true villains and heroes of the Star Wars Saga are. With over 30 minutes of content and discussion, I feel that a fair argument can be made in favor of The Empire.
I am not implying that the empire, sith, or their associates are perfectly good and I am not saying the jedi, rebels, or their associates are purely evil. But each side sits squarely on a spectrum. With the empire leaning towards the morally justified side and and the rebels and jedi leaning more towards war mongering blood thirsty side.

Transcript:
I was born in a unique time in regard to star wars, the original trilogy was completed before I was born and the phantom menace came out when I was 14.
That music...[opening song for a few seconds] was the beginning of my three favorite films as a child. And then in my teens it became 4 films, 5 films, then 6 films.
The jedi were my heros. They were everyone's heroes.
But then I grew up. Life became more than just home work, riding bikes, and holding hands.
As well as the films i loved expanded beyond space ninjas and laser swords. I saw a dark knight rise, two men of steel crumble, barefoot mini-people ride giant eagles, big business clash with the american dream, and a long trek come to a halt.
And along the way that music came back, a seventh time, an 8th, then a 9, and as of now a tenth time. As great as they were. They weren't the same. Maybe I became more cynical. Maybe I stopped being naive. or Maybe it was an inside joke and was meant to be seen all along.
And yeah, I get it, they are films. They play at our emotions. Logic isn't exactly what they are about. But if you look at things with a little less emotion, a little bit more logic, and a tiny spoonful of real world events, you see it. You see it pretty clearly.
You see that the empire was right.
Now just to clarify things ahead of time, I am merely talking about in the live action and theatrically released films. No comic books, tv series, made for tv films, novels. Just the films. Also, while the connection is implied, the first order does not have definitive connection to the empire and as such will not be directly referenced, for better or worse, in connection with the empire.
Also, I am not implying that the empire, sith, or their associates are perfectly good and I am not saying the jedi, rebels, or their associates are purely evil. But each side sits squarely on a spectrum. With the empire leaning towards the morally justified side and and the rebels and jedi leaning more towards war mongering blood thirsty child molestor side.
First and foremost, I am going to start with an obvious point. What makes the Jedi so good?
They may call themselves the peacekeepers of the galaxy, but they are quite violent. In a new hope, Obi wan makes the first blow against vader. And in the phantom menace, Palpatine tells Darth maul not to attack first, and wouldn't you know, when he encounters obi wan and qui gon, obi wan attacks him first. Just for the sake of comparison, Darth maul even goes out of his way to avoid making contact during portions of this same fight.
But on a broader level, the jedi initially maintained order for the sake of the republic. But the republic is deeply flawed. It has no interest in the common good[phantom menace] and it is run by bureaucrats [ph]. This same republic also sits by idly as the trade federation lays siege to naboo.
But looking at the jedi, on their own. I am at a loss for what is so righteous about them. At best they are part of the republic's military, but then they are only as good as the republic. At worst, they are a cult that brainwashes children at a very young age, as even Anakin skywalker was initially too old for the jedi. I am all for people finding peace through religion, but the jedi play it a bit fast and loose with their timing. look no further than obi wan taking advantage of luke wanting to know his father{a new hope} and then catapulting off the untimely death of his Aunt and uncle{a new hope}. this is quite the predatory situation to trick someone into a religion.

Okay but i think death star didnt get 90% of their shots that shed the blood of bilions of People an entire ecossistem with tons of espécies being extinguished
This without said that the fact of miss 90% of the shots is a suicide mission for soldiers that were influenciated and some of them dont even know that they are bad

I was reading the comments while watching the video and while I was reading your comment he said the line
@@cataro2058 same
This feels like watching a propaganda video made by Palpatine himself 💀
The empire literally didn't do anything evil in the original trilogy
A single planet was blown up by an admiral who took action on his own
All the original trilogy is is "empire bad cause characters we follow say so"
If the ot was in the view of the empire it'd be a story of an empire trying to stop a destructive rebellion that is tearing the galaxy in 2
If you think using logic is propaganda, I hate to see how much left wing nonsense you believe.
@@reverenddick8562 if you think every logical solution is justified your heart is in the same place as your brain - somewhere off your body, gone
@@some_shitposting_idiot3023 But thats only the surface, after it you need to ask why the rebels were doing all of that... your point is like saying "X is wrong because he threw a rock at Y!" but Y threw it first and that why X took action.
And again, indeed if you stick to the thin surface thats how it looks, but when you consider all the lore, thats just not it, and one example is: how could the empire not be "evil", if all their chain of command and EMPEROR is literally a evil character driven by anger and rude power by any means, you cant say that "Oh the admiral who shot the planet was evil! Not the empire!" while the empire is a SITH empire and thats the whole point of Jedi vs Sith. Of course you can use the argument that "The republic was corrupt!" and so on... but again, who was behind all the bad stuff happening? 🤭 The emperor himself, Darth Sidious
And ok if you wanna follow the original trilogy point of view go on, but insisting in the statement that the empire is all fine is very broken if you consider the whole view we have now🤔
@@some_shitposting_idiot3023 I mean the empire didn't disavow or stop the action, and disbanded the senate right after it lol
so every time a stormtrooper fires a blast at someone, that wasn't the empire, right? It was just an individual acting on their own
You forgot to point out that in every movie the stormtroopers never shoot to kill. They only shoot precise warning shots. They always hit near the target to show that they are expert marksmen that are able to shoot extremely close to the target without hitting the target every single time.
Wonderful point!
And one of the few times that the did hit a target, Leia on Endor, it was just a mild surface wound.
This is something that was discussed way after the release of the original three films. And it wasn’t even confirmed. Literally everybody knows the troopers suck with their aim. Characters have said it before. It’s a theory that they never shot to kill, which again was never brought up until recently. So implying that it’d be 100% truth would be wrong, unless officially confirmed.

Well, they managed to destroyed all the ships attacking the death star, except for 3 or 4 ships!!! Movies don't kill their heroes in the middle of a movie or trilogy. Have you ever seen james bond movies?, his enemies always miss when shooting at him. As a story teller (aspiring) you don't kill your characters in the middle of a story: you may lose your AUDIENCE!!! I thought knew that ALREADY.
For the last time, Storm troopers do not have bad aim, in the OT, they had orders to let Leia escape so they could find the rebel base, Disney thought it would be funny to ruin storm troopers and make their terrible aim canon
If someone ever ask me how framing and narrative shifting is great for propaganda, I'll show this video.
But Star Wars itself is a series of propaganda materials... At least Disney set things right by having Rey Palpatine steal the credits and the family name of the rebellious Skywalkers.
It really wasn't that great
This is all true though except some few things.
These are all the same kinds of things I hear from the "America is the real bad guy" crowd

The STAR WARS films were funded partially or completely by the New Republic.
Ok. Storm trooper aim makes perfect sense now. They weren't actually trying to hit anyone.
Military precision. Obi doesn't talk about individual targeting abilities.
That's actually correct in at least one instance. Some of the worst trooper shooting ever is during the escape from the death star, where they were allowed to escape just like Leia theorized.
Wouldn’t they just set the guns to stun then?
Pjonesmusic1 they did stun Princess Leia. Why don’t the rebels do that then.

Palpatine: *"I AM THE SENATE."*
The naming of the ships makes my mind think:
"Does anyone actually call the star destroyers by that name in the Empire? or is that a republic given name? Same for the Death Star.
Yes they do
There are multiple instances of the empire officials/soldiers calling the ships star destroyers or the Death Star, so it’s not just the rebel names
Yes, Star destroyer is a republic given name, as it is a type of warship recognizable by its large size and triangular silhouette, it is not an imperial concept. The Death Star is called the Death Star many times by imperial employees
Real militaries name their tanks and ships scary things all the time, it just makes sense.
Maybe the imperials thought Death Star is a cool name and adopted it and it’s the common name now. Maybe it has a boring name originally

@@LordCattington I’m pretty sure earth maul attacked first as well as palpatine as well as Vader in revenge of the sith and the empire strikes back
Indeed the Sith hate the Jedi and Love to fight them for a good reason. Maul attacked the Jedi several times and I think in Episode 1 as well. If you take a look at the old republic, you will get to know that the Jedi are addicted to power and you‘ll understand the Sith. The Jedi started a galactic war, because planets didn’t want to be under the ruling of them by FREE choice, so the Jedi destroyed the whole Sith planet and made a genocide on them and the Dark-Jedi Order, same with the planet Mandalor and the Mandalorians, because they don’t accept another mace-user or powerful order but the anti-democratic order of the Jedi. Palpatine was elected democratiically. The Jedi had NO right to put him under arrest simply because he is a mace-user. The Jedi fear everything that might destroy their shadow-government. They are the true villains in Star Wars.

@@Anakin_SkywaIker Hey Anakin. Nice arm! And lower torso, and respiratory organs...
I'de like to point out something about the lighsabers used by the Empire and rebels.
The rebels use green, blue, or purple lighsabers. In physics, these colours have low wavelengths, and so according to Planck's hypothesus, high photon energy. If the wavelength emitted by the laser is purple, it implies that the core of the saber is emitting either X ray or gamma radiation. If you're maimed with this type of saber, not only will it be painful, but the resulting polarisation, and photo - decomposition of the chemical compounds in your body could kill you. Not to mention the possible effects of direct radiation exposure. The Jedi's lightsabers are made to kill, and do so painfully, thereby making it's use a war crime.
The Empire on the other hand, uses red lighsabers. Red and orange have lower wavelenghs, so while there is some level of side effects a person will witness, it us not enough to kill them. More so, you will just need a surgery, or at worst, an amputation.

Let’s not forget that the emperor made a disabled veteran from the Clone Wars (Anakin Skywalker) his heir and personally funded his physical therapy, as far as I see the “noble Jedi” discouraged equality for the differently abled sending them off to be farmers for the warrior Jedi
You are brilliant!
66 likes. Nice
truth
he....literally created and groomed the same person, knowing he would suffer his entire life. let's not mention the fact that he didn't give anakin anesthetics when he was turned into a half-cyborg, so to deepen his connection to the dark side. palpatine never once cared about anakin, he only wished to make him his slave.
How does Vader eat?
I love how this started logical, well-thought and plausible, but then gradually went "Empire good, Rebels bad because reasons".
This video is a shitpost if you couldn't tell
not really he gave reasons till the end he was just joking all the way

And then you have the "precise" Stormtroopers' inability to hit the side of an intergalactic barn...
They just encourage their opponents to leave, instead of engaging in the bloodshed of the rebels and the Jedi.

Yes. xD

Like Carrie fisher died as well
It was pretty messed up that Obi Wan didn’t put Anakin out of his misery instead he cut off all his limbs and left him for dead as he burned in lava
Yea, that always bothered me since he thought of Anakin as his brother!
Just goes to show you Dat from ma point of view da jedi are evil.
He didn't want to be responsible for his death. He loved him like a brother. It broke his hart he had to fight his own pupil. That's why he left his fate up to the lava. I think he thought he would die anyway and didn't want his death on his conscience. Just let the fire take care if him.
@@danielkeizer4174 that’s pretty bad logic he left him to suffer as he burned in the lava. It would have been more compassionate to just kill him. Good thing he didn’t though
@@monkeydgarp9663the lava was also rising so he didn’t want go down the cliff aswell as palpating is about to show up

i love how parts of this is legitimate and then you just have a full section about how the lack of pants are the only reason wookies arent human
...and how they don't talk!
But... they are not human. They are Wookies ;)
He aint wrong
@@IAmJimHuss the ability to speak does not make you intelligent...
Bait and switch. We need a serious video about how the Jedi are the modern day equivalents of a middle-eastern theocracy, essentially ISIS, and the empire are supposed to represent the United States. We've been told a story from the perspective of Osama Bin Laden about his "rebellious freedom fighters" against the Empire (US) and its religious Sith shadow government (Jews), and not the true story.
your like the defense attorney of the empire
More or less an advocate for truth, justice, and the imperial way.
@@IamaDinosaur The Roman Empire is very complex, so saying it is evil or good is very hard. as it did both good and bad.
The Sequel Trilogy, all joking aside honestly does show the galaxy was better off under the Empire's rule. i mean the new republic is nearly useless and have very few planets under there governance. crime is rampant everywhere so much that Han even went back to crime. under the empire it was kept in check at least. The first order a complete radical worse version of the empire took over just by blowing up a few things.
@@IamaDinosaur quite true, depends who is emperor.
HistoryFan476ad That's a fact. Jordan has colonnaded streets in Jerash, Petra, and Umm Qais. They brought us engineering.
Minor problem I noticed with the sand crawler point Tuscan raiders use “slug throwers” (guns) whereas storm troopers use blasters the damage done to the sand crawler is indicative of blaster hits
obviously a false flag operation to slander the good empires name
Really, I have seen that specific rifle, and whenever I have seen it in a video game, it shoots lasers.
That’s what the lore says but its always a bit unclear what’s cannon
My favorite part is the "empireaccepts all kinds of ppl, what about the wookies? Oh nono, theyre not people, theyre just animals"
They were accepted, in labor camps.
So they slaughtered them like animals...
I hate sand...
They didn't say how they accept them. As slaves, a alien soylent green, target practice... So they Empire accepts all kind of people. For numerous things.

For the empire
Besides, Carl Sagan had already said it: at the ceremony where Luke and Han were given the medals, Chewabacca was given nothing, even though he was on the same ship running the same risks. There is discrimination in the resistance against the Wookiees
Yeah! #JusticeForChewie !
Princess Leia even refered to the wookie as a "big walking carpet". That's a red flag right there.
@@zaho87 It's true! Let's imagine for a minute if Chewabbaca had said, "Damn midget with a donut hairstyle." Today they would be setting fire to the cinemas.
There’s plenty discrimination afoot. I see a lot more “human” ppl in the empire than other races. Understandably so when you see many of them are in rebellion of the empire.
Speciesm (or whatever it's called) was actually a thing in the Republic even before Palpatine. So that kind of discrimination was cultural to some level and was widespread, it has nothing to do with the Empire
This makes sense, until you remember palpatine was a master manipulator
That's just jedi propaganda
Actually palpatines master is the master manipulator, Darth jarjar
I lossed it at the lightsabers. “I’ll fight you so hard that you’ll feel blue”
Gibby Does Stuff lost
"The Empire shoots green lasers which mean, "Go in Peace."
More like go in pieces.
@Aswad Faruki What do you meeeeen! It just means a different type of taberna gas, probably refined by a different company. They are not even lasers, they are bolts of ionised plasma.
And when he’s says red lightsabers mean stop I don’t want to hurt you, complete bs, it stands more blood and killing
green lasers: "go in peace" Green lightsaber: "go and die" makes sense to me
Different tech. Different rules. Glad you get it!
Hahahaha! You made me laugh of funny conclusions that you have in Star Wars hahaha! 😆😂😅🤣😁
Lol i like that red lightsabers actually mean stop i come in peace
Red saber 'Stop and go away'. maul constantly being pushed back and taking defensive gives a different view ;)
Green vs red tracers are 99% a reference to world war 2 where allies used red and germans green to differentiate who is who in combat to prevent friendly fire. I say that because there are a lot more references to ww2 in star wars.
This video shows up in my feed every so often, and I forget it's satire every time.
Green lasers mean “go in peace”
Green lightsaber means “go and die”
Okay now I see you’re joking
That's when I fell off as well. I feel like he really started ramping it up in the second half
I read this comment at the same time he started saying this and I actually died, I was about to stop watching too 😂😂😂😂😂
Meteor Smash well I think it was confusing but I feel he was probably referring to how Maul’s lightsaber slowly extends which seems like an intimidation tactic
Walking Talking Weeb dude, this entire video is a joke 😂 look in his description
LMFAOO I WENT TO THE COMMENTS TO SEE IF SOMEBODY ELSE NOTICED THAT
Seeing the text "go in peace!" as a Star Destroyer lights up a Rebel cruiser is beyond hilarious.
And then watching him reverse his logic behind the red lasers from the ships to the red lasers on lightsabers.
@@zanbarlee6190 I think the design of Darth Maul's lightsaber makes it look like a defensive weapon, not the colour red.
@@derhenri2002 Yeah, and the quite large center is unprotected, which would be bad in a fight but. the double blades do provide more options for defensive moves...
Ik this is a bit dumb but it is funny
@@derhenri2002 exactly, did you see how his saber turn on? It’s one side then the other, it was served as a warning, first side was “warning, i do not want to fight, i am highly skilled and i just want to complete my task”, the second was “last warning, please do not attempt to fight.”
Ironic. The Empire could've saved 'millions' of people, but not themselves.

This was believable up to the point where the red light saber means… stop… don’t fight me… stop. Lol
Fax 💀! I was actually believing him up until that point.
And right before that, the red lasers on the rebel ships meant prepare to die lol. He did a 180° on the colors.
Well it really does depend on the context behind the colors. Red doesn't mean thr same thing in different countries and surely not different empires
