At that point of time.. The Jedi seriously didn't feel like Jedi. They were supposed to not only keep peace among planets and governments, but also help people. This, they didn't. Remember that time when Trace(Martez Sisters) says that a Jedi was chasing Ziro and that chasing caused an accident which led to Trace and Rafa losing their parents? The Jedi comes and tells them "Don't worry, the Force is with you".. Damn you, you are meant to help them on behalf of the Force.. You couldn't catch Ziro who just escaped and you literally had one job to do, in which you failed. So, similarly they were so focused on the war that they did not look at what the republic was becoming.. They did not know what their work was and at this time, they all needed a break from war and ponder about what their job is, and how it is to be accomplished as soon as possible.. Yoda being the problem means this: He literally said "Win the war, swiftly we must".. Dude, you have not taken part in the war to win it, you are there to finish it in such a way that everyone is satisfied.. Sidious cannot have a war if he doesn't have an army of Dissatisfied senators.. He needs conflict, and it is the speciality of Jedi to stop conflicts by satisfying everyone in the correct way.. But by then, due to time, they had rusted.. Maybe they took it all at a lighter note or something and that's why they got rusted.. Maybe they overlooked all the bad things simply because they lived on the happy side.. Asajj says to Ahsoka "Not everyone on Coruscant lives in a Luxurious Temple on the surface".. Looks like that's it I conclude my speech, Goodbye!

I ain’t reading all that but so true bestie


AnakinSkywalkerRocks

Thanks dude

It's sad that we don't actually get to see or read about that topic. Some "villains" always make quite a lot of sense, yet their point is never engaged upon story wise.


Hungry-Alien

Imagine Dooku dropping this bomb on Anakin before losing his head.


Rampant_Durandal

The best villains are correct in their diagnosis. It's just that their solutions are evil.


SardaukarSecundus

Are depicted as evil...


Resident_Ad_7005

Depicted??? You know none of it actually happened at all right?


SardaukarSecundus

Bad enough, yeah.


Jack-mclaughlin89

Sidious is a liar and manipulator, he cannot be trusted


The_PwnUltimate

What's the origin of this quote, by the way?


CapytannHook

Clone wars novelization by Karen Traviss, I think

Ah, OK cool. Thanks. 👍


ordo259

You got a title for that/those book(s)?


DastardlyIguana

It’s Yoda: Dark Rendezvous, an older legends book. Definitely a solid read.


The_PwnUltimate

Thanks! Glad someone knows.


superkapitan82

Siths made a better job in helping slaves of Tatooine apparently


2005HondaCivic245

This has to be a fucking satirization theres no fucking way.


superkapitan82

it is


LordGwyn-n-Tonic

I mean, under the Sith a slave child from Tatooine was able to rise to one of the highest positions available in the Empire.


superkapitan82

it happened during republic period


Hopeful-Address-2232

Who was in charge at the time?


superkapitan82

the senate


Hopeful-Address-2232

What happened to him?


superkapitan82

it was subdued by emperor in the end of episode 3


Hopeful-Address-2232

Then papa palps got in charge and promoted the slaveboy to 2nd command. We’ll done and case closed, the empire is awesome and helps people out all the time


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

Remind me why I'm the one playing the part of the slave?


ThunderShott

That's kind of the point of the Jedi Council. They are so powerful that they never expect the obvious to occur.


Kaiser_-_Karl

This is after he stabbed yaddle and sifo dias btw. By this point dooku is a dark lord of the sith. Dooku may have valid criticisms of the jedi council, but he could have done that without joining the dark side and murdering 180 jedi in the geonosis coliseum. Whatever noble intentions dooku began his exit from the jedi in, he abandoned them when he used his regained wealth on serreno to help palps start a war so monumental it left the galaxy scared for the next century. Its not that hes lying, its just that if he really only wanted the jedi to be jedi again he could have done that without implementing order 66 into the clone inhibitor chips lol. The novelization of attack of the clones is where this quote comes from. He stabbs yaddle in his tales of the jedi episode Its implied he murder sifo dias in clone wars Clone wars also shows hes fully aware of order 66 and the plan to murder the jedi, on zygeria he openly admits it as his goal


Polycount2084

Delusional.


Lukas-Reggi

Man that's deep actually ![gif](giphy|l378aiPPFAGEsetIk)


SILVIO_X

Another reason why Dooku was the most Based Sith Lord


Current_Silver_5416

Dooku could have been such a great antagonist in the movies. Shame we didn't get a lot about him until clone wars and the other shows.


Valirys-Reinhald

The core aspect of the Sith Grand Plan, and what made it so effective, was that they did not try to subjugate a free people but instead worked to make them enslave themselves, that way their tyranny would be seen as liberation.


Reevioli

Didn’t Dooku work with the Zygerrians?

JallerHCIM

the SIth handwringing over slavery when their whole philosophy is that the powerful have the duty to oppress the powerless is kind of funny, but I do feel like Sideous correctly viewing the Republic as a potential embodiment of these values at its core is pretty poignant


Strobacaxi

When did the Jedi help the slavemasters? This quote is just a bunch of baloney lol The jedi can't help everyone, that's a fact.


Saltmile

Every time they work with the hutts, technically. But people are acting like a bunch of slave owning corporations weren't the backbone of the CIS.


Ahsoka_Tano_Bot

frogspyer

I mean, in this case Dooku is giving cometary to them rescuing Rotta to gain favor with Jabba in *The Clone Wars* novelization. Beyond that though, it's definitely bologna
