Amen.
I would add:
That Darth Vader turned to the dark side because either 1. He justifiably cut off an evil Sith warrior's head, or 2. Because he desperately wanted to believe obvious Sith lies (from an obviously evil Sith lord) which told him that the irrational murder of innocent children would somehow save his wife from a hazy and indefinite threat that might not have even killed her for all he could have known?
That Darth Vader's complete transformation into a machine-man took place in the span of a few hours?
That Darth Vader didn't hunt down or kill any real Jedi of any notoriety, but instead only murdered a bunch of young children in Jedi training?
That the incredibly expansive organization of the Jedi were not hunted to extinction over many long years but were all simultaneously fooled at the same time by many different but equally obvious plots to kill them?
That it was simple, pathetic, and inept Storm Troopers that killed practically every last Jedi without even the slightest fight (except for Yoda and Obiwan)?
That the Jedi were a pathetic police force under the direct control of the republic?
That the Jedi, despite having immense and mystically special knowledge about everything, visions of the future, and advanced (magical?) monitoring technology, couldn't see a completely obvious conspiracy forming plainly in front of their collective faces?
That the rise of the Empire and the decline of the Republic was a pathetic little and forgettable war between some pointless droids and meaningless clone troops?
That all of the Storm Troopers are meaningless cloned troops?
That the “clone wars” didn’t affect much of the rest of the galaxy or ordinary people in any way unless they happened to be Wookies?
That the Death Star was not the greatest military project commissioned by the Empire but a weapon designed, financed, and built all in secret by the Sith?
That the "Sith" were a large sect of warriors comprised of one man . . . occasionally two?
(Edit: changed some wording.)
