Did you even read my long post that had rebuttals to it, about the great jedi purge, owen and beru lars, and alderaan's destruction????

Yes, I have been reading your posts and replying to what I see fit.

By that logic, you can say that the world operates in a black and white morality and that the justice system is evil and that criminals are good. You see???

 

It is different because unlike real life, Star Wars is a fantasy world where evil is always evil and good is always good. That's the whole point of a fantasy world like that; there is no grey area because there is only black and white. Anything the Rebels do to fight the Empire is good because the Empire is bad; while, conversely, anything the Empire does to fight the Rebels is bad because the Rebels are good.

It's very, very simple "black-versus-white" fantasy morality that has been used in countless books, movies, video games, and basically all other forms of fictional media since time immemorial.

What about the galactic sith empires that existed long before the death star???

"once more the sith will rule the galaxy"

"the opression of the sith will never return"

"at last we shall reveal ourselves to the jedi and have our revenge"
