And like... what the fuck are you talking about? From what we see of canon, healthy coping methods are the thing that the Jedi teach you in the Temple. They are fucking constantly talking about mastering your emotions and they're always checking up on each other and shit.

You could even argue that "flunking out of all the healthy coping mechanism lessons the other Jedi take" was the problem with Anakin, who constantly responded to people asking about his wellbeing as if he was being interrogated and literally, empirically, could not healthily manage his emotional responses to things even when his life depended on it.

The Jedi taught emotional control, not repression.

The Jedi took kids with parental consent, they did not kidnap them.

The Jedi did not hold people against their will, they could leave the Order at any time.

like. these are not neutral historians. these are not unbiased narrators. these are men who wake up every morning and choose manipulation as a lifestyle.

and yet people hear palpatine whispering into anakin’s ear like “the jedi are hiding things from you… they don’t trust you…” and go. wow. compelling. source: dude in a hood who has never told the truth once in his life.

HELLO???

of course he’s going to say that. what else is he supposed to do. sit anakin down and go “hi yes i am actively trying to emotionally isolate you from your support system so i can turn you into my apprentice and ruin your life” like be serious 😭

same with maul going “you’ve been indoctrinated by the jedi” as if HE wasn’t raised in a sith pipeline since childhood. sir. that is not a revelation.

and dooku. walking around like a philosophy professor going “the republic is corrupt” yeah okay, we know, and your solution is… fascism with extra lightning???

Ahsoka doesn't have parents. Stop shoving Jedi into nuclear family roles. I'm so tired of it.

Jedi are raised in a community. You have a Master that guides you in the ways of the force until you're attuned enough to let it guide you on your own, and you won't need a teacher anymore. Then you let them go. This doesn't mean that you stop caring about your Master but you have thousands of Masters and you have thousands of brothers and sisters and Padawans too.

Not much to say this moon. I'm glad almost everyone is okay

"But have you considered ten paragraphs of the most obvious and unconvincing nonsense imaginable?"

"Still bullshit."

"It's so disappointing you won't debate in good faith!"

I mean they have to be deliberately looking to be offended, right? They always say they are looking for a good faith debate but finding someone you know won't entertain your bullshit and then clutching pearls when they don't entertain your bullshit is acting in bad faith.
