Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

What did I miss?
Someone posed a very ill-formed question that results in no winners. "Would you rather find yourself in the woods with a bear or a man?"
The argument is almost designed to make men feel discriminated against and women feel like men don't listen to them. There's just enough room for everyone to bring in their own assumptions about the situation to justify their position, so everyone else feels defensive.
The only winner is the bear.
No the friendly apex predator of the woods is painted in a very bad light in a lot of these arguments. So no winners really
The bear will eat quite well.
Not from eating people, bears don't like people.
The bear is eating leftover popcorn from all the people watching the shitshow from the sidelines.
It's becoming a problem, the bears are getting too fat for winter
That's why I said the post didn't feel appropriate to me, dragging this topic only makes it worse for everyone (even the poor ewoks), then some people started to misinterpret (some in clear bad faith) my statement and bring more hate 🙃
I'm tired of the internet, even asking for peace brings controversy nowadays...
I don't get the context but it sounds like you are taking this personally.
That's the neat part, it doesn't matter what you say, 90% of the users on Lemmy are taking it personally.
Fair enough
