For Some Reason People Never Short In Their Bad Take Mace Windu!

For some reason people never short in their bad take Mace Windu!

The fact there still people who likes to call Mace Windu as either bloodthirsty and mean is racist. Stop putting your perpetual racial biases known as angry black man stereotype on Mace Windu!

That’s racist.

Mace Windu shown to break Sam Jackson typecast, the character is shown as serious and calm man not the violent type that usually is associated with his character. THAT’S A GOOD THING! BREAKING BAD TYPECAST!

BUT WHY PARTS OF THIS FANDOM WANT MACE WINDU TO BE ANYTHING THAT HE IS NOT.

He is serious but people keep interpreting it as mean, stop and try to think that maybe your latent racism is showing! That’s racial biases are there!

STOP PUTTING ANGRY BLACK MAN STEREOTYPE TO MACE WINDU! THAT’S RACIST! 

What is Balance of the Force?

So, balance, obviously it refers to balance between good and evil. Good is the light side, evil is the dark side. Therefore, balance means having equal amounts of light and dark. After all, you can’t see if it’s  to bright or to dark, and sight is important, so this is obviously the correct take on what balance of the Force is! Oh, and Jedi = light side and Sith = dark side. Therefore, you need the number of Jedi and Sith to be exactly the same, which would then mean there is equal amounts of light and dark side, which means that the Force is in balance! Everyone knows I’m right because I used an equal sign!

Ok, now that the sarcasm is out of my system, I’m ready to give my answer for what balance of the Force is. I’m only going to be using Lucas canon (orig 6 plus TCW) to answer this question, mostly because that’s all I fully consider canon.

To start off, let’s review what we know about the Force. (bolded emphasis mine)

“The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together”

“For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. It’s energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere. Yes, even between land and the ship.”

The Force is not just about or connected to the Sith and Jedi, but to everyone. This is important to remember for understanding what balance is. It is also the main thing I suspect people forget about the Force.

With that reminder out of the way, let’s talk about balance. What does canon have to say about balance?

The main bit of information we get (outside of word of Lucas) comes from the prophecy. This prophecy says that there is a chosen one who will destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force. This would suggest that the two things are linked. Especially since they’re often mentioned together.

“Is he not the chosen one? Is he not to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force?”

“You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness!”

This would suggest that Sith are an unbalancing element, and canon seems to support this idea.

Think about it. Are the Sith necessary for the galaxy? Do they at least improve things? The answer to both of the both questions is no. The Sith are not necessary, and they actively make things worse. The Sith do things like end democracy. The Sith have people enslaved. The Sith do things like turn the Republic into a fascist Empire. The Sith do things like having Death Stars created that can destroy entire planets. Who benefits from all this? The Sith, everyone else gets to suffer. The Force is connected to all life. The Sith benefiting while everyone else suffers is not balance. The Sith may not always create imbalance, but they certainly make it worse.

I’ve been talking about the Force out of balance, but do we ever see it in balance? Is the title question of the post ever answered?

Yes, it is.

Balance is when good triumphs over evil.

Balance is when we face and defeat our demons.

Balance is when there is more light than dark.

And last, but certainly not least, balance is when selflessness wins over selfishness.

When good is chosen consistently, again and again, every day, that is when the Force is in balance.
