In Defense of Star Wars

Kind of. Maybe I will make a real post on the subject at some point. [07/20/2024]

• Scrollspost- A meme format pioneered by the iFunnier Elf_Cooker_Gang which is generally a blend of lore from the Elder Scrolls franchise (hence the name) and Right Wing esotericism. Other franchises have been the subject of scrolls posts but for the most part, TES is the bread and butter of these kinds of posts. Generally made with the iFunny comic maker or some similar app.¹

I made this Star Wars scrollspost probably like two or three years ago at this point, but for obvious reason (as you will see) I could never get it past the iFunny automod. As I have mentioned before, I used to be pretty big on Star Wars lore (I still have probably over 50 Star Wars books). I did get inspired to make this post as a defense of Star Wars, as you will see, but I may make a more thought out version at some point.

By the way, I took these quotes used in the meme from actual Star Wars books. All of which were written by the same guy: Timothy Zahn (the creator of Thrawn, who this post is about). I could have put citations in I guess but it didn’t really feel like it fit.

Also Sectionalism Archive and Layne A. Jackson you niggas is in this.
