    Extra funny if you knew of the people who were “playing” Eve Online psychopaths, who had and still have the tendency of toying with the mental gymnastics of portraying the Sith as the good guys and the Jedi as the bad guys and decided over a decade now to get involved in propping up the Trump movement.

    If only Democratic leadership had anything near the balls of Mace Windu. They’d pause the fight to pen an angry letter while Jedi, younglings, and the entire Republic get slaughtered.

      A Sith Lord in control of the senate you say? We must call the council at once and write a formal letter to Emperor Palpatine to tell him his actions are against the founding principles of this republic! And we’ll make sure to comply with his every demand, but be strongly against the morality of this whole situation.

    This line dropped as the second George W Bush term was getting underway. It felt super relevant then, too (I actually viewed him and Cheney as worse than Trump until he actively worsened COVID). But this term’s opening has been so bad so fast that the line really does hit different.

      OP likely used an electronic device you may call a “personal computer” that is capable of capturing still images that you may call a “screenshot” from a moving image video format you may call a “movie”.

      Hope that helps.

        Is that an actual scene? I thought the camera was from a different angle. Did someone strap a Go Pro to Darth sidious?

          They did for the baking-themed porn parody Star Whores: Attack of the Scones 🤷

            I know this is a joke, but uh, you’re gonna need to deliver on this. I need to see it.

            (Also need to see episode1: The Phantom Baguette, I had heard that Darth Roll with his dual lame weapon was worth it)
