@lemmy.worldNot 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
Come on dog this is literally just 'yeah well what if we imagine a hypothetical world where MY argument is right, how about that?'

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
Is that the one who has seven wives or whatever even though that's supposed to be not allowed?
You can see him struggling with the "they touch you, but not the other way around" rule 😅
