    Weren't Yoda's failures and blindness to what was happening around him part of the reason the empire came to be in the first place? He was too weak to stop Palpatine

      This is literally the same analogy as that "Biden is like Hindenburg" lib from yesterday, who was seemingly unaware that Hindenburg was democratically elected and yet was unable to prevent Hitler from coming to power anyway...

      He was literally the worst jedi leader ever, not only his sat on the council so long he was even titled "grandmaster" (basically a time-based coup), and his overall blind dogmatist position and strings of particularly bad decisions are responsible for most of the order's decline and fall. Again, it was happening over centuries.

      It was, which is why The Last Jedi had Luke trying to correct the faults of the Jedi, except the movie half-assed it just like every other cowardly decision made in that movie.

    Do libs inderstamd that fiction isn't real?

    I mean Yoda is frail and wise for the same reason he's short and green - somebody made it the fuck up.

    People are questioning Biden because he's an old man with dementia. That's real, you can't spin that no matter how many cinematic universe characters you compare him to

      Do libs understand fiction isn't real?

      "Uhm this is just like Harry Potter! Silly tankies just don't understand we're the adults in the room! :smuglord: "

    Biden's like Yoda

    Incapable of seeing the fascism swelling up in the republic?

    Unwilling to acknowledge let alone address systemic injustices?

    Like, 1000 years old?

    About to self exile to escape his fuck-ups?

    Yoda failed Anakin and the Galactic Republic.

      Yoda died alone in a hut, and the last thing he ever did is reveal to his student that he had been rizzing up his own sister for the past four years. And for the past year Yoda ALLOWED his student to rizz up his own sister. So I guess that means Hunter Biden will have to join the Houthis and save the galaxy...

    Hmm, yeah. Very reassuring to know that he is old and frail like Yoda who passes away by the end of the original trilogy. Not that I'm against Biden just dying.

    It's not that far off from the lich king angle they suggested on chapotraphouse.

    I don't really mind if he can't do push-ups, he can't even speak properly. Something which Yoda can.

      "A big liar, you are. Best government America has seen, mine is."

      "Some votes you have lost, it seems? How embarrassing!"

      "When 90 years old you are, not so good will you speak, hmm?"
