Was Darth really all that bad?

[Ds Da Man]

After seeing AotC, and rewatching all the SW 4,5,6, I was wondering what made the dark side all that bad? I mean, they really didn't kill masses of innocents, until the brat pack started showing up, threatning to rebel and such.
And think about it, you live on a strange planet, with hordes of ugly brutal creatures kidnapping and raping your family, the possiblity of being sold into slavery, and what does the Jedi do, ummm....nothing but meditate! The jedi weren't really all that good, and the Dark side wasn't really all that bad.

Of course, so called "Darkside" cannot be evil, because embracing your feelings isn`t evil, or is it? Oh, and Jedi were a bunch of deluded, arrogant and stagnant fools, it took only 2 Sith to destroy their pathetic Order! Glory to The Darkside! All Hail The Emperor!

Hey, doesn't the U.S. have a high-ranking member of al-Queda in custody? They should threaten to nuke Afghanistan and Pakistan into oblivion unless he tells us where Osama is hiding.

And then, after he tells them, they should nuke them anyway! Bwah-hah-hah! That'll show 'em!

Maybe it's a mistake to mix too much reality into my fantasy, actually ...

Oops, I guess there was a good thread about it already. Thanks
