YES. This is one of your best theories. Seriously I always felt this way, and completely understood the dark side characters who were ex-jedi. THAT'S A LOT OF TRAUMA. Honestly I pity the ex-jedi sith more than anyone else in Star Wars ... they were forced into a cultish organisation from childhood, forced to not act on their very probably volatile emotions, and ran straight into the arms of someone who specifically looked for folks like them just to manipulate their hatred and grief and trauma for his own gain. Also, Obi-Wan is definitely my favourite SW character, but I honestly think a huge part of Anakin's downfall was his fault and due to the strain of their relationship. Part of what I like about Obi-Wan is that he looks like just a plain old kind of boring hero dude, but his character is actually pretty complex, deep, and morally grey. He's really uniquely written imo. Both the Jedi and Sith are evil, with the Sith being worse but only because the Jedi are bad in the first place. The force is ... well ... a huge force to be reckoned with, and it's super easy for having that much power to corrupt someone, even if their order is specifically designed to prevent such an occurrence.

2 years later, episode 6 of Book of Boba Fett is really helping support the whole mind washed jedi theory here. It also helps support Asohkas reasoning for not taking Anakins offer to rejoin the order, she took it as her opportunity for a free out from an order she now realised never trusted her, but only used her.

My personal theory. Way back when near the old republic era the Jedi moved their temple onto corosant to try and cover up the sith one. Unknowingly the longer they stayed the more under the influence the later Jedi would become. I think this is why you see styles like Mace Windu who actually used the dark side powers of his Opponent to increase his abilities when facing them.

Anakin: "I'm worried about my mother." Obi-Wan: "Oh yeah! We freed her a month ago and got her set up on one of the republic relief programs. I think she'll be trained to do clerical work. I'll get you her number before long." Anakin: "Oh. Cool. Guess I can focus on my training then, knowing my only family is alive and safe!" Also... Anakin: "I've been having these terrifying dreams, master." Yoda: "Undergoing a delicate medical procedure, your pregnant wife is. Normal, your dreams are. Fine, everything will likely be. Awesome, our healthcare system is!" Anakin: "You knew?!" Yoda: "Knew, everyone did. Disappointed, the council is. Demoted, you will likely be. Normal, this situation also is." Anakin: "Huh... Master, I think the chancellor might be a Sith Lord."

Okay Mat, but... where are you getting this idea from, that he's not allowed to quit his jedi training? Because it's not mentioned anywhere in the movies and every piece of extended media that addresses this says that jedi-in-training are allowed to quit whenever they want. You're just pulling this out of nowhere, aren't you? Because once they are allowed to leave, your *entire* argument just falls apart. So this entire video is just built on an unreasonable assumption. "And yes, the entire fault of the fall of the Republic is because of the jedi." What? No, it isn't. If Anakin hadn't turned to the dark side, which you blame the jedi for, Palpatine wouldn't have been revealed as a Sith Lord to the jedi. There would have been no confrontation in which Anakin saves him and then order 66 would have gone off without a hitch and Palpatine would have still killed all the jedi and taken over the galaxy. Blaming the jedi for the Empire is ridiculous. If they hadn't been around, Sidious would have still taken over, because he didn't actually need Anakin. Or any of the jedi for that matter.

@@grimlord3181 The sith were basically "extinct". Like the Jedi said they had been for millennia. This is because of the sith rule of 2. "Bane's Rule of Two mandated that there could be only two Sith at a given time: a Sith Master to embody power and a Sith apprentice to crave it." The sith were lurking in the shadows following Darth Bane's plan of following the rule of 2 so that the sith could grow more powerful than the whole Jedi order and exact revenge. "The Rule of Two's establishment coincided with the creation of a plot, known as the Grand Plan, for the Sith to corrupt the Galactic Republic from within, diminish and disgrace the Jedi Order, and eventually rise and conquer the galaxy; the Sith would soften up their enemies before zeroing them in for total subjugation." This was eventually done by Darth Sidious. Now there's an argument to be had that I think @eternalmiasma5586 is trying to say here. The light side of the force was more powerful than the dark side in terms of numbers and probably power for a long time after the Jedi-Sith war. This argument relies heavily on the fact that some say the Jedi interpreted the "prophecy of the chosen one" wrong. That the chosen one was supposed to bring balance to the force, but the balance means equal power on both the light and the dark side. To me, all light side and no dark doesn't seem too balanced.

Well spoken. This is kind of why I try not to judge people for how they live their lives because I’m no saint myself. There’s nothing wrong with holding someone accountable for certain decisions when you aren’t sounding like a hypocrite or appear to be forcing your mindset on them. There’s no perfect lifestyle but typically when you respect people they will acknowledge or even appreciate it. As far as the Jedi go they made stupid decisions that went against their own code. For starters, at least 2 members of the council lost control and acted afraid or angry in all of the Star Wars prequels. Also it’s very hypocritical for them to say one thing but do another(The Phantom Menace), lie and manipulate someone who’s done everything to be loyal(including put his mother in the past), or claim to not be soldiers but take place in a war only because it concerned them as much as everyone else. I can’t hold much against them for training children because real countries have done this but those people typically made sure that needs were met. If the Jedi Council had been honest with Anakin about everything that concerned him then he would’ve seen less the need to consult Palpatine. Also it was idiotic for the Jedi not to monitor Anakin if they were so concerned that he was dangerous. I’m not saying that they needed to eye him like a hawk but they could’ve have spent time with him other than just hearing his reports on missions that he and Obi Wan were sent on.

I disagree with Qui-Gon being in the same basket as the other jedi. In fact, it would’ve been best if he trained Anakin, and then maybe he wouldn’t have turned into Vader. Qui-Gon was the one jedi who saw the problems with the council, and often disobeyed the jedi code and made questionable decisions where the moral implications are albeit murky for what he perceived as the greater good. If you remember, Anakin was by far a special case, Qui-Gon himself sensed an enormous amount of force power from Anakin, and found out that this kid had to be the chosen on. Qui-Gon is the one jedi who cared about people(I suppose you could count some others if you use the expanded lore, like Obi-Wan and Plo Koon, etc), as he showed when he saved Jar Jar from the Gungan king. Yeah he played it off as “This gungan could be of use to me”, but he saw a life in danger and decided to intervene, even using jedi mind tricks to get the job done, embracing morally murky decisions for, again, the greater good. I wouldn’t say jedi mind tricks are like brainwash, they’ve always been a sort of influence, a momentary guide of a persons thought process, rather than a full on-and-off switch Qui-Gon may have been someone Anakin could’ve talked to Padme about, and he’d be understanding of it. So after the Padme nightmares, and after when Palpatine told Anakin about Darth Plagueis and the ability to save others from death, Qui-Gon could’ve told Anakin about how dying during childbirth is only a singular possibility, and that “force healing” isn’t an ability specific to the sith. (Not gonna get into the specifics of force healing and how it may work cause thats really controversial) but luckily, it wouldn’t even come to that as when Anakin tells the Council that Palpatine requested that he be a representative on the council, Qui-Gon would have the insight to point out that Dooku told Obi-Wan that the senate was under the control of a sith lord. In fact it may not even get that far as Qui-Gon may look into the matter himself, and Palpatine may have been discovered earlier, and he would’ve been killed. These were facts of the movies, they didn’t frame the jedi as virtuous, they framed them as the instrument of their own demise

Darth Traya brings up a lot of the failings of the Jedi. One of the biggest problems brought up is how they teach people to cut themselves off from any emotions rather than teaching people how to deal with said emotions. This, ironically, leads people (including anakin) to the dark side.

10:54 , ok this was actually an inside joke between Obi-wan and Qui-gon, about Qui-gon picking up various creatures (pets) or plants on missions and obi would end up taking care of them one way or another. Or at least that’s the popularized headcanon.

Jedi are not technically evil in the way of how they attain new recruits. They are not kidnapping kids because the parents, if they have any, are aloud to say, "No, I do not want my child going away." However, children are not allowed to see their parents because as mentioned in canon, attachments can lead to the Dark Side. Does not mean they can't have relationships with others, and the Jedi are not said they shouldn't be cold hearted, but they are to have compassion, not attachments.They have to be taught from an early age in order to fully build a strong foundation into the Jedi Order. Also, everyone knows it is hard becoming a Jedi, so the younglings would need years in order to perfect their training and hopefully becoming Jedi Knights. Of course, anyone who's anyone would tell you the Jedi Order had its flaws as the Jedi soon became prideful and arrogant, and their rules also were sometimes wrong and unfair, which is why some Jedi were "grey" Jedi. They respected the Code, but when necessary, they would disobey tradition in order to do what was right. As many people would also tell you, the prequels show you the flaws in the Order. But how they went about recruiting their new students was not entirely wrong, but I see what your getting at. Know that I enjoy your videos, but I love Star Wars a lot more. I hope you can understand what I mean, if not then I tried, but know that I do see what you mean.

Matt I do have to say one thing regarding Qui Gon: He was more of a Grey Jedi, and he tried to follow the Will of the Force itself. He could tell that Anakin was unlike any Force-sensitive child anyone ever encountered, and felt that the Force had intervened in some way for the two to have met. If ANYONE would've gone to check on Anakin's mother(or even try to free her from Watto's grasp), it would've most certainly been Qui Gon(had he not met his end by Darth Maul). He almost always went against the grain of the Jedi principles, which is why Yoda made his comment to the young Obi Wan in the end of Episode l, "Qui Gon's defiance I sense in you. Need that you do not." Qui Gon was offered a spot on the Jedi Council, to which he declined as he felt his purpose as a Jedi was to be guided by the very Will of the Force. He was also trained by Dooku when he was a Jedi Master. Arguably, Dooku's training would've been a more suited platform of training and teaching than that of the existing Jedi Code. Dooku understood there were many areas of the Jedi Order that were flawed, but as a Master, he was able to carve his own path in some way. Dooku was also one of the few members of the Jedi who believed they were meant to do more than being the peacekeepers of the Republic, and felt that the Jedi had lost their way(and even their connection to the Force itself) during the time of peace from a Force-user's standpoint. Even more-so when discovering the unfortunate death of his former apprentice and dear friend. I mean for crying out loud, when Qui Gon encountered Darth Maul for those brief seconds on Tatooine and Obi Wan asked him who the unknown assailant was, "I don't know, but he was well-trained in the Jedi arts." was all Qui Gon had to say. The Jedi made the foolish mistake of believing that the Sith had been eradicated, and simply set the thought of their inevitable return to the deepest corner of their minds. Rather than training in preparation for the Sith's return, they pretty much said, "Screw it, they're gone forever. Why would we need to be prepared for an enemy that no longer exists?". It was that very misguided assumption on the Jedi's behalf that led to their downfall. They had, in a sense, betrayed the Force itself through their lack of actions when they became mere lapdogs of the Republic. On top of all this, the Jedi Council placed the Chosen One under the care of newly-deemed Jedi Knight Obi Wan. Had Qui Gon lived, the Council would've gone with Qui Gon's request to be Anakin's Master(after Obi Wan faced The Trials)...and A LOT would've played out differently. Anakin would've had immediate trust in Qui Gon's teachings, since Qui Gon operated more as a Grey Jedi than anything else. Anakin would've become far more powerful under a much wiser and more open-minded Qui Gon than a 'fresh off the Jedi Knight press' Obi Wan. Anakin would've felt comfortable and confident enough to reveal to Qui Gon his love for Padme, which Qui Gon would then give him guidance on the matter as a whole. Palpatine would've met his demise in Episode lll, Anakin would've been deemed a Jedi Master, his transgression of a romanticized relationship with Padme would've been overlooked(most likely due to Padme being a Senator of the Republic), and Luke and Leia would've been ushered into the Jedi Order. In time, a more resolved Jedi Order would be formed, and the Jedi would be prepared for the next revival of the Sith with the aid of the Chosen One plus 2 offspring. TLDR; If Qui Gon hadn't died, Anakin would've remained loyal to the Jedi Order and Episodes IV-IX wouldn't exist(for the most part).

great video. should have included count dooku in this. he left the jedi because he was beginning to sense the ways of the jedi weren't the same as they made it out to be.

Thing is, in the Legends continuity, there's a specific event that the Jedi committed (under the Republic's orders) that confirms the evil of the Jedi, and created the undying enemy that is the Sith: They committed genocide against the Sith populace. Not just the actual force users, but the civilians, too. Men, women, children, all were murdered in an attempt to completely wipe them out. This is why the Sith are constantly focused on hatred, fear, and revenge: because millenia before, the defeated civilization that could have surrendered and made peace... Was completely eradicated. And the survivors fled, remembering this genocide and creating the evil Sith as we know them today.

He is truly lost.

Anakin's descent into darkness was well portrayed. Because some Jedi never completely loved him, didn't respect him, didn't trust him, didn't take him seriously and even despised him. As a child before Obi-Wan started teaching him, he was hated and psychologically bullied by other children "Anakin is a slave to his feelings" and that was only because of envy because he was much more gifted and skilled than them. . . . And many other things and sufferings he and his padawan, Ashoka Tano, the Jedi like to cause. Yoda during the Clone Wars, he met the spirit of Darth Bane in Sitt's tomb, which is created by the rule of two. And later in his visions he saw Anakin becoming Darth Vader and didn't do anything about it because I thought it wasn't worth it. Anakin was a slave all his life - Tatuine, Jedi, Love, Dark Side. He became a father figure to Qui-gon Jinn, during his stay in the temple he was psychologically bullied and called by others "Anakin slaves to his own feelings", he lost his mother, the Jedi never married him all the time and without proper evidence he accused Ashoka and caused her to leave and finally he was afraid of losing Padmé. The only and worst support given the events was Palpatine who was a fatherly substitute for Anakin from the beginning. When he used Mace Windu's hand and after killing the Jedi he was already in the dark as the dark side itself showed him to the planet Mortis The One Son. On Mustafar, Padme almost got him from the dark side, but Obi-Wan discovered him and screwed it up. Anakin "Vader" built his castle on Mustafar and thanks to the two sbosobs he tried to revive Padmé but he could not see it due to the fact that Luke and Leya were already born, they were the only ones preventing it with their existence. Too bad he didn't find "Word between Wolrds" on the planet Lothal. He would create an alternate Reality or go through all of history. ;) . . . You have to find out about the lost 20 Jedi like Count Dooku, about the fates of Jedi with the ability to see the future, young apprentices who were not taken by any Jedi masters to learn, who showed little talent for the force and were not shown to the temple which in some cases was quite drastic, . .. Blinded by ego, aronance, pride, absolute help to people and not following the path of forces. Honor to the exceptions and one of the true Jedi was Master Fey. The Jedi and the Fallen Jedi (Sith) have betrayed the memory and message of their common ancestors of the Je'daii Order by their actions and the endless battles of their Civil War. 😊 May the force be with you. And may you lead the force. 🖐️

Honestly, I’m surprised Padme didn’t use her influence as Queen and later Senator to raise money to release the mother of the boy who destroyed the mother ship of the Droid Army that was invading Naboo. Heck, even Jar Jar could have mentioned something and maybe, just maybe, someone could have been sent to Tatooine to check on Shmi.

I’d say the whole point is to put them through intense training and stress so that they can learn to rely only on the force and not be dependent upon ppl

I love your channel and I know this is for entertainment but I do still want to break it down a little bit. They didn’t take babies, parents had to give their babies willingly. The droids they used to train the younglings were not harmful, sure they hurt a little but no serious damage was ever done, they were purely used to sharpen the younglings reflexes, it’s like meditation takes time to learn and get proficient at. Would you send an untrained soldier into combat? They didn’t ignore their emotions and they weren’t told to ignore love either, in fact Anakin said it best: Jedi are not forbidden to love they are forbidden to have attachments, Jedi are encouraged to love in a much more general sense. Attachments cause one to get exactly that: attached. With attachment they are then unable to serve the will of the force, if they aren’t serving the will of the force than they are serving themselves, which leads to the dark side. Finally just because being a Jedi is “a commitment that is not easily broken” doesn’t mean a Jedi couldn’t leave the order, they absolutely could almost at any time they wanted but as with anything, leaving it has a wider affect and everything would have to be worked out and it would take time. Saying it could not be done is foolish.

Moreover the jedis take pretty good care of the ones that decide to leave. They are integrated in society (diplomatic, medical schools, etc.) and can live a very good live. There is also the possibility for a jedi to not get an active knight after they pass their tests. Verdict: The jedi order is more like an elite school with some spiritual aspect that recruits their students as babys but allows everyone to leave if they want, even giving them pretty good chances to live a successful live afterwards. The people that seem to critizise the jedi order are often only looking at some superficial things and don‘t care to look at it in detail.

If the jedi order were more gray and more free, the sith would have never existed because the jedi would have accepted them in stead of oppressing them into a fierce resistance.

True, but we must also take in consideration the mentality of this galaxy. For them, the Jedi Order was a religious, honorable army of peace keepers. They were THE Jedi and joining their ranks was the greatest honor one could ever achieve. So we have a lot of parents happy that their child gets to bear that honor. Another aspect is the Force. These children had great power and were too dangerous to be left alone. Imagine a child throwing a tantrum in the middle of store and bringing the entire building down because they wouldn't know how to control the Force. So the Republic gave Jedi right to take these Force sensitive children into training, so others may live without worry. You said it yourself, these children are not mentally prepared, so they need someone to constantly watch over them. If they lost control in the middle of temple, there were hundreds of masters ready to jump in and help. I cannot deny that at the end, Jedi lost their ways and basically became super soldiers for republic, but reasoning stands. They were founded to take care of all force sensitive children in galaxy and make sure they do not harm others and also use their powers to help. We can argue that its kidnapping, but in universe where random children can have power to level buildings just by throwing tantrum, I'd say that Jedi or something similar is a necessity. And one last thing. You assume that these children know they lost the family, but Jedi take them so young that they barely know who their parents are. For them, the Jedi are their family. Masters that take care of them are their mothers and fathers. Other younglings and padawans are their brothers and sistes. You remember in Episode 2 as Yoda was teaching the younglings? He seemed like an old wise grandfather, slowly and patiently teaching his grandchildren. Of course, that is my point of view. Feel free to hate it or ignore it, but you will not change it. XD Also, MARRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

@Rook the jedi were really powerful and all but they didn't follow their jedi code instead of being peacekeepers of the galaxy they became military generals and they where so corrupt and they didn't teach the padawans sith ways because it could be dangerous but some padawan like anakin learned how to use the dark side in his lightsaber fighting style but it lead him down the wrong path and that's why the jedi were scared and couldn't control the padawans emotions even though in my opinion I would have let them explore sith values so they can balance the force and also learn about that stuff but the jedi where too scared too do that because they thought they would have overexposure but I would have stayed with them and let them hone their craft just windu did with vapad while balancing the light and dark without going over too much to the dark side so that's what I would do with my padawans but basically I'm trying to say that the jedi were supposed to be peacekeepers and ended up being war generals and also they wouldn't let their padawans have exposure too sith artifacts soo the jedi are very corrupt in my opinion and that's why the sith are better(imo)

That’s why Darth Sidious was able to fool so many. He was playing four way chess. He knew one day they recruit a kid that not only will be powerful but has all the ingredients to become evil. The Jedi basically gave Anakin Skywalker to Sheev Palpatine on a silver plater. Only because they were so stuck in there ways that they didn’t realize they harm they were causing. So much ignorance,hypocrisy, and the fear of losing power led them to their demise.

@hello world Something tells me the whole "Jedi are not allowed to form attachments" is because George Lucas was heavily affected by his divorce in 1983 and maybe didn't truly get over it (not that I blame him). The whole Jedi Order was also molded after Buddhist Monks from what I read in articles and watched in special features. He might have allowed those two things to have a little too much influence on the Prequels than it should have. I mean, come on. Marriage and attachments lead you down a dark path? What kinda of logic is that? Sure a divorce is heartbreaking and sure you're going to blame the other person amongst other things, but this is just ridiculous.

People who try to paint the Jedi as evil forget that the only two times in SW canon you see Jedi take children... they're asked Shmi was asked multiple times. Jedi training is basically a boarding school. The idea that you can compare this situation as parental abandonment is just forcing an argument People who think Jedi are bad are simply contrarians and moral relativists. The fact that matpat tries to argue that the storntroopers are innocent bystanders speaks volumes. There's no real argument against the ajedi so he makes one. And why doesn't he acknowledge the fact that the vast majority of the Jedi in star wars history become functional and normal adults? Because it goes against the narrative that there's something wrong with the jedis methods. I mean how honest is someone whose only argument against the jedi is the single worst case of PERSONAL failure. If you stop to actually analyze the plot, matpat ... you'd realize that the reason anything goes wrong in star wars is due to sith manipulation... that was the entire point of the prequel trilogy. They didn't lie about their ability to the Senate. Palpatine was actively diminishing their ability to sense danger. It was a development throughout the plot. You're blaming the Jedi for being forced into the position of general by the sith... and then saying they're evil because they lost at defending the galaxy. Contrarianism fools people into thinking they've made good arguments. Channel doesn't deserve a sub after this video.

@@nunyabysnss9755 It's not putting the kids in a boarding school that's the problem. It's putting the kids in a boarding school *and then cutting off all contact with their families that's the problem* here. Whether the child and parents consented isn't the big issue. The big issue is *those kids are never going to see their parents or siblings again* . That's not talking about the *other* issues. The issues that made taking children so young under peacetime circumstances necessary in the first place. They're taught not to have emotions at all. They're not allowed to start families of their own *at all* as of the Russan Reformation (far earlier then that, really. It was even Taboo in KOTOR, 4,000BBY). They're told not to have anger, fear, be passionate about anything or anyone that isn't the Jedi order and the Republic. They're not even supposed to grieve. You either try and fail at that. Or you succeed and become the clinical definition of a sociopath to one extent or another. You're asked not to have ambition;but that's so hard wired into the psyche of any species that managed to crawl off of it's homeworld in the first place as to be non-senseical. You're going to have an easier job cut out for you trying to bring an oasis to the desert by peeing in the sand. No wonder students keep falling to the dark side: Power is the only thing you have left. And it's pretty clear that some folks who wrote for the EU had that opinion too, look at EU Luke Skywalker as the example. Or Kreia from Kotor II, who was a singular voice of reason somehow and pointed out both sith and Jedi are full of lunatics.

Mat pat you really need to watch clone wars because it fleshes out everything you just said to an extensive level

You can actually leave the jedi order whenever you want, at least after your training is complete. Dooku left the order to pursue politics and inherent his family title of Count on his home planet. They don't even shun you, for years he was considered a friend of the order. Ahsoka also left the order of her own volition. They also don't steal children, they only ask the parents to initiate them. Often this is enough because of the vast respect of the order, but if you say no the Jedi seekers arent going to take the child against your will. When Obi wan says the commitment isn't broken easily he's speaking morally, and also more in regards to the republic, as anakin is a commissioned general in the ongoing war efforts.

I will add this: the Jedi (at least in legends, as I do t think it's been covered as much in canon) can take the children by force if they want to. It's something they can legally do by special permission from the senate (not for individual cases, but as a whole). They just didn't tend to use that power often unless if it was deemed absolutely necessary (I think one example from legends had it happen to a child of a murderer or something)

It's complex. The Jedi did NOT like to train anyone who was "too old" while the Sith took in those like Dooku and Anakin. The Jedi tried to squash out individuality while the Sith actually encouraged it (to a large degree.) The Jedi were falling into apathy while the Sith, to their credit, had learned of their biggest failure, their infighitng, and thus Darth Bane instituted the Rule of Two to get around that, plus by making the apprentice get strong enough to defeat the master in order to take over, they were getting better. Of course, the Sith hated relationships and caring just as much, and likely even more, than the Jedi (see how Sidious abused Maul, for instance, or how Sidious grinned when Vader went "Nooooooo!" whne learning of the death of Padme.) Also, the Sith are indeed far more power hungry than the Jedi. Also, to be fair, Anakin never denies that Palaptine is evil, when Obi-wan states it. He just says "From my point of view the Jedi are evil." Meaning, that, yes, he believes Palpatine to be bad, but the Jedi are equally bad, and if Palpatne will get him more of what he wants than the Jedi, he'll take Palpatine's side. It's clear, from Anakin's dialogue to Padme, that Palpatine is just a means to an end for him. Once he's found how to save her, he wouldn't hesistate to take out Sidious and rule himself, and even suggests that to Padme that the two can take over the Empire and rule the galaxy together. Even Sidious, when he said "Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us" was expecting Anakin to beat Obi-wan and KNEW that, sooner or later, Anakin would take him out as well.

Jedi did try to dominate the Galaxy, by conquering even neutral planets with the help of the Republic, but Palpatine stopped their expansion with Order 66.
