yes, the first Polish edition was only in 1960 so was based on the revised edition

there's evidence that the earliest description of Vader's so-called force ghost does not resemble the known descriptions of Anakin Skywalker's appearance at all, it was only changed in later copies to match the clone wars saga written decades later

the so-called M-source (short for Maclunkey source) is not especially trustworthy

there's overwhelming evidence the only existing account of the appearance of his Force apparition was doctored years after the fact

him being the same person as Anakin Skywalker is surely a later addition, though?

(hard to say with the Silmarillion given that Tolkien Estate might argue Christopher Tolkien's co-authorship legally)

searched this person's posts for Ukraine and like fucking clockwork

he proposes in the Senate the act giving Palpatine special powers, which leads to the creation of the empire

not to mention Jar Jar enabling Palpatine's rise to power in ROTS

(nothing against the actor, though, he competently played a terribly written character)

also Jar Jar Binks ends up enabling fascism so not sure if he's that great of an indigenous representation even aside from being a minstrel show caricature

well, I hope they fix it; the blocking options are what makes this site usable
