There are people who legitimately believe in Scientology and you think it's unheard of for people who seek power to practice a belief system that's meant to be all about obtaining more power?

Well it'd be more like "sup, you can be presented at 30 years but you can only have one tenure and then you go to jail for life". Considering how one such deal would be dumb, you'd be surprised how successful the Sith ended up being fi they attract this kind of profile.

(Also is that tenure or tenure in office, for a term? :| )

why do you know so much about the Star Wars universe


i found a thread once randomly about star wars and reddit and like 99% of the shit there was about stuff you odnt learn from the movies it was crazy

if they werent useful then evolution woulda got rid ofthem



Every boxer I've ever heard interviewed said they channel their hatred of their opponents in the ring. They may not really hate them but they convince themselves they're the enemy. Hatred and calm can go together.


maybe. I feel like its more of a competitive/fighting spirit +I trained so hard and this guy is in my way etc. more of a channeled thing then just really hating that other guy.
Like fedor I think said "Back when I was young, we had only barely enough food to live, ever man in front of me I see as someone who wants to bring em back to those days"

No Teut, you don't understand
evolution is a lie and anger, fear and hatred are emotions given to us by the DEVIL and we need overcome them and instead use the emotions given to us by GOD with big G (kindness, love)

Uhm, what? The spirituality of the Force is far closer to various forms of Asian philosophy.

There's a reason Vader was made to look like a big bad evil space samurai and the jedi act like monks a lot of the time.

Easier to make the super edgy attack on Judeo Christian religions.

wow

such fedora


LOL REK UR SO MAD
scip is making a joke based on a mix of his own beliefs (not relgiously) and religious beliefs to achieve what is a post with layers of truth and irony
and then gahlo thinks he's still talking about stars wars???
I can't believe you can fall for a poster who bolds the word knight and acts as proof that isn't purely based on western religion
maybe you guys have people who actuall think like this in america so i wont judge

Havent seen too much from him but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Stumbled upon the SW wiki because of darth&droids yesterday, managed to only spend 40 minutes on it, came out with 3 things:
- funny how every "good guy" (or protagonist, when it's a bad guy) is always a natural, gifted and stuff, and when it's a bad guy he's usually full of himself and greedy or racist even when he's not incompetent.
- World Destroyers have such a corny design, wtf.
- no Sith died of "natural causes", and it's known that "the dark side" eats at them, making them megalomaniac, paranoid, physically frail over time. Also Inherently evil. And yet there are still always people to adopt it, not for philosophic reasons but because of power trips, how does that make sense if you know you'll only get moderately powerful (more than the standard goons, but there are always a bunch of Force-users spread out in the galaxy anyway) for a time then decay physically and mentally and not even be the person who initially joined anymore?


wtf alaric the sith are way stronger except maybe with yoda and also yoda got frail when he got old also
only luke skywalker was stronker and thats because he was written as the main hero so he had to be and the first 3 movies were too short to show him doing tons of training so just "lol dem midichorlolians"
sith are always looking for the most powerful apprentice possible who always ends up killing his master if he becomes stronger so thats why they never die naturally. if they are old and frail they just find someone to train or a jedi to corrupt and turn and then get killed when he gets suitably evil to kill his own master

Jaedong said in an interview that he mentally pictures himself killing his opponents when he plays against them, or that he wants to kill them, can't remember the precise wording. Made people freak out in conjunction with his well-known "death stare".

but I think it's more of a channeled thing than he genuinely looks up shit about the guy and says "his favourite movie is 2001 a space odyssey? I HATE THAT MOVIE FUCK THIS GUY"

maybe there's no difference. but I think channeling something like that isn't the same as someone genuinely wanting to kill all the jews
there's plenty of people who have lots of hatred and I think this is just athletes with fine emotional control letting it work for them

Dunno if being a hateful and angry person made you better at competing, all those ragers wouldn't be down in bronze elo.

all the ragers at low elo is coming from a mindset where it's not their fault they lose and they blame their teammates and then they still want to win but they feel powerless so the frustration leads to them being dumb hateful and angry
think of how much clouded judgement you need to not notice how bad you are if you are in bronze

people at the top of their sport generally know themselves and their ability very well and also know how to control their emotions very well

A big thing in the Star wars stuff is also that the good guys have acceptance, while the bad guys just won't let stuff happen in the "wrong" way.

mmo-champion put together a blackfriday thingie. + Show Spoiler +

Point is, it's wrong to say that hate/anger makes you better, if what actually makes you better is being able to control said hate/anger.

Most of star wars wasn't even made by lucas. The basic concept was basically all that was his lol. The prequals were all lucas, and look how that turned out. Worst trilogy next to twilight.

Did you ever watch the interviews of the actors after the movies? Natalie Portman tried pulling so much BS out of her ass to try to justify the horrible script and basically had this huge smile on her face the entire time like "I have no fucking clue what I'm even saying." For me that was the best part of the whole trilogy lol
