It’s nice to reflect on how as a little kid I went and saw episodes 2 and 3 in theaters and thought the Jedi were so freaking cool man - then coming back to the series 20 years later having developed politics and realize the Jedi are pretty blatantly a corrupt, listless, doomed-by-its-own-inadequacy organization starting at the top.
Palpatine/fascism are the bad guys but the Jedi are certainly not the good guys, in a way that went ten miles over my head at the time lol. These movies deserve more credit imo
Not even just income, health insurance and future job prospects as well 🙃
I have the money to quit and wander the world for a year or two, but I would be abandoning my health insurance and it would be a huge black mark on my resume assuming I didn’t concoct some lie to cover it.
If you work a 9-5 in America like I do, you are tied to your labor in much the same way serfs were, you are just better compensated and can switch masters if you find someone to take you on
