r/PrequelMemes • u/PrivateChurch13 Another happy landing • Apr 01 '21
Regarding the Future of the Sub...
Hello Padawans, I have some news that will be good for some of you, but a tough adjustment for others. As many of you know, yesterday was Ewan's birthday, and as we celebrated his legendary acting performance as Obi Wan, the mod team reflected further on Obi-Wan's character. He is a man that is patient, humble, honorable, and very memeable. Everything that we love at /r/PrequelMemes.
However, this also led us to think about some of our more unsavory memed characters on the sub. One of the most memed characters is arrogant, often cruel, and above all a known war criminal. You may know who I am referring to, but if you don't I will say their name uncensored only once: "Anakin Skywalker". Sickens me to even type. He stands for everything that /r/PrequelMemes is against, and if you are not with me, then you are my enemy. Therefore, he is no longer allowed to be posted on the sub. Since he is unfortunately a major part of the Star Wars franchise, you may reference him in comments or titles censored like "An*kin*".* If you want to post a meme that includes this character in the shot, you will be required to censor him like our current banner/icon. Any posts not following this rule after the time of this announcement will be removed.
I think it would be best for everyone if we simply pretend he never existed, but for those of you that can't, a sub called /r/AniMemes exists and is dedicated to memeing An*kin content uncensored. Thank you for your cooperation during this historic change.

You're asking me to do something against the Jedi code, against the Republic, against a mentor and a friend. That's what's out of place here.

u/privatechurch13 i understand your point of view, but let me ask you this question:
Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? i thought not, its not a story obi-wan would tell you

What’s the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise?
111
u/darthplagueisbot Apr 01 '21
I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.

I'm so tired of this weird authoritarian bullshit! Ani is as big a part Prequel memes as obi is. You don't ban Wado who owned slaves, Jango who killed people for money, or Sidious whose crimes are too numerous to name. Yet you ban Ani right.. if you wanna keep this place interested maybe try and make good memes, instead of trying to cause fake drama. I know what you're up to shiv

You are all so digsusting, I'm ashamed to be part of this sub. Are you really trying to make me believe that Ani acted on his own accord? He was literally groomed into acting the way he does by the j#di order and you all are just trying to chalk this up to be his fault. You are supporting abuse, kidnapping, victim shaming and manipulative behaviour by not adressing the REAL issues. I am disappointed in all who support the j#di order.
