i love how the old jedi order spent three whole movies saying that once someone has embraced the dark side there’s no chance they can be redeemed, but luke skywalker looked at the man who chopped off his hand, participated in the torture of his twin sister and best friend, and pursued him and his friends across the galaxy with the intent to kill them and said “yeah i can fix this” and then he fucking did
well, the jedi wer epart of the problem. let me ask you this, does all light and no dark seem balanced? No. Light without darkness is blinding. they were too arrogant to see that the overabundance of jedi might be the problem and the only true way to achieve balance was by destroying both light and dark and start a neutral class.
Remember, Luke and leia used tactics which were considered dark. LIke luke force choking someone in return of the jedi or leaving his training to go save leia and han, similar to how anikin left his training to save his mother despite being told it leads to the dark side.
Lukes order may be called jedi, but it’s most likely a neutral class.
