Yoda’s Monastic Order Disaster

>be totally unaware that a subordinate commissioned an independent clone army in the name of your ‘monastic religious order’ >politicise your ‘monastic religious order’ by entering a war with your secret personal army with your followers as generals >be directly responsible for turning the republic into an authoritarian regime via illegally arresting the chancellor and therefore justifying martial law >get 99% of your ‘monastic religious order’ exterminated because you couldn’t fully sense the bubbling dark side plot right under your nose >waddle off to a swamp and exile yourself after bungling a galaxy defining duel to the human manifestation of evil >oversee the near complete triumph of the dark side over the light to the extent that people doubt your ‘monastic religious order’ even existed >place your faith in a farm boy with no training who happens to be the secret son of the human manifestation of evil’s top guy

Yoda from Star Wars is shown alongside a long greentext recounting the Jedi Order’s failures: allowing the clone army and authoritarian Republic to emerge, failing to stop the Sith, and going into exile after losing to Darth Sidious. The punchline is the deliberately accusatory summary of Yoda’s responsibility for the Jedi’s near-destruction and his desperate faith in Luke Skywalker.
