Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.
Technical note: if you're coming from another star system and are getting a "Subscription pending" message when trying to dock, that's just the console being slow to display the right message. The connection is already established. (Probably.)

IMPORTANT
Do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Special days!
Friday and weekends: Caption contest. An image will be pinned, and we shall make captions for it and post them in the comments.
Wednesday: Theme day. We have Droids day, EU day, poem day, aliens day... Let the pinned post guide you. Memes with the theme are preferred.

Other universes to visit:
Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):
!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world
==========
Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

While I'm sure some people do I don't think that is the norm
What other people are complaining about Disney have a "woke agenda"?
it's just racists and bigots.
So I'm not allowed not to like something?
Are you being deliberately obtuse? We're talking about the people saying Disney has a "woke agenda". It's literally panel one of the comic. i don't really care whether you like the show or not.
Maybe you're saying you don't like minorities and gays. because that's what people are referring to when they talk about "woke"ness.
I can dislike a movie without disliking all LGBTQ+ people. Calling it woke is one thing but what you are saying is that people who dislike the newer Star Wars are effectively discriminatory. That is very much not true. Sure newer Disney might be unpleasant for someone who is homophobic and racist but that doesn't mean that people who dislike it are disliking it because of the liberal characters. I dislike it because sucks and make zero sense. You are tying to things together that aren't correlated both ways. One can hate newer Star Wars because they are homophobic but the hate of newer Star Wars doesn't mean that someone is homophobic.
read the comic and get back to me, specifically panel 1.
