First off, I have to say that appropriate icon is very appropriate, I must say!
It really is. I've had enough of mudslinging with politics - those kinds of remarks don't lead to any kind of substantive discourse, they just ring about the echo chamber or annoy people.
Seriously! And it doesn't really accomplish anything either -- other than make both sides look completely absurd.
And very well said!
*Is curious as to what things you necessarily disagree with regarding RLM*
And yeah, I think that sums it all up.
And that's definitely the best explanation regarding Yoda and Dooku I've heard. On another note, I also really hate how they treated Anakin. I mean...Anakin tried every possible option, and they make it sound like he just chose the Dark Side path because it was...easier or something. Never mind that he fell just to save his wife. Never mind that quite honestly, both the Light Side and the Dark Side are pretty difficult, because with the Dark Side -- well, you have to do a lot of awful shit, be on guard for your life, etc. At least with the Light Side -- even with all those arbitrary rules governing how you live and everything, you at least don't have to worry about getting killed in your sleep for one thing. *Not making sense, sorry*
