special snowflake fake religion nobody actually practices, based on a movie with really simplistic power ranger morality straight outta DC comics
how about goth people ?
depends on the person
goth is like "electronica," you gotta specify
i see
cyber goth
not super familiar with them
I know they have a lot of rave overlap, I stay away from that stuff
and I personally am not into cyber anything
cybergrind
I like victorian crap a lot more
I mean... everyone who wears a lot of black and grayscale and tends to see the darker side of things has at some point been called a goth and not been able to effectively deny it
one thing I'd look at is what they actually /do/ that is "goth"
like are they going to clubs, reading/writing depressing poetry, a certain kind of music, are they into S&M, is it just fashion, etc.
you can find goth forums out there that are entirely into some Cure-like 80s niche version of it where if you don't look like edward scissorhands and wear their exact 80s getup and listen to their 3 approved bands and nothing else, you are a normie
I think "goth" is kinda like altright in that it's mostly a label imposed by others/outsiders
especially if you aren't in some stinky themed club every friday and it's just your general look/mannerism
Star Wars does not have a simplistic morality m8
That's the entire point of the OT
yes it does
jedi are power rangers who are into democracy and equality and celibacy
not at all
basically leftist catholic monks
That is the Prequel Trilogy
not even close
well if you get all extended universe it's murky and political (i.e. good)
They're much closer to Taoist monks.
The Jedi are about as far away from Catholicism as one can be
the unconventional aryanism of star wars
Anybody who says that Star Wars is sci-fi misses the point of Star Wars entirely
@rebekka888 What the fuck is Jedi-ism
The Jedi are effectively Taoist monks
So you might as well ask for thoughts on Taosim
ok, what are thoughts on taoism and buddhism ?
Excellent guiding philosophies that can easily be misinterpreted as egalitarian crap.
and often are
Buddhism is not quite as insightful as Taosim
I would def buy that shirt
so clearly the tendied one takes jedi ism seriously
