The religious crazies prefer him because he says he is pro-life. They describe Clinton as a baby murderer who has enacted genocide upon the unborn.

Not in any of the canon material! There’s something to be said about inaccurate colloquial use (like how people misuse the word theory and mistake it for hypothesis or unsubstantiated conjecture). It seems to be more a problem in the fan world than the Star Wars universe.  

I think it’s pretty funny that you forget about the causes of the Syrian civil war in your discussion about Islamic State. You’ll probably blame that on the United States as well.

No, I’m making a very clear argument that is supported by the films and and tv series. Jedi outside of the Order do not exist in the films and tv series.

No.

No, that’s not my opinion. The Taliban did not rise from the Afghan-Soviet war. They were a response to continued civil war between rival factions. They originated from Pakistan and rolled into Afghanistan with Pakistani help and Saudi funding.

Also, Leia isn’t a Jedi.

Jedi is not broad. It’s very specific. This is exactly the problem: “All members of the Jedi Order are Jedi, however not all Jedi are members of the Jedi Order.” You have it wrong: All members of the Jedi Order are force users but not all force users are Jedi.

Yeah, no.

“One persons Freedom fighter is always another persons terrorist.” Please stop saying this. This helps confuse people about what is terrorism.

Yeah, your defense of jedi=snorkeler is straight up faulty. Cats are dogs, sharks are turtles, astronomy is astrology. Not very helpful at all. I snorkel, so I guess I’m apart of Cousteau’s crew? Pick up a book on how language works.

You’re proving the point that I’m making with the inconsistent use of the term Jedi (and language in general): it’s meaningless if it is anything you want it to be or if it is used too loosely to define very specific concepts. You just farted out a few paragraphs that don’t really seem to grasp the issue or make…

Your first paragraph makes absolutely no sense. The way Jedi is used in some Luke era EU is mostly stupid because it doesn’t draw from any mythology. It is often contradictory. When the mythology is established by the prequels and the Clone Wars series, the term dark Jedi becomes even more useless (this is some pretty…

Yeah but you’re not a real journalist.

Yeah, you did repeat what I said in a few posts. Anyway, in the OT, Luke trains with Obi Wan and Yoda to harness the Force with a particular ideological bent and becomes a Jedi. If it’s not explicit, being a force wielder is a necessary quality to be a Jedi along with acquiring the title through acceptance into the…

You’re pretty much just repeating what I’ve said with the exception of “dark jedi” because, again, Jedi is an ideological position and a title. To be a Jedi means being part of the Jedi order. It makes sense that a nonspecific colloquial conflation might be used by people who don’t know what the crap they are talking…

A Jedi committing murder would violate the Jedi code.

It grosses me out to think Donald Trump has had sex.

This doesn’t answer my question. Do these distinctions exist in the new canon? Jedi was a generic term for force wielder in the extended universe. It really doesn’t make sense once schools of the Force were introduced. Someone who uses the Force is not a Jedi (it’s an ideological/political/social position just like…

That’s not addressing the question. Are “dark jedi” as discussed in the old expanded universe still canon? Still a nonsensical term in the current canon.
