Certainly not!

It seems like something to be aware of!

Well, if Jedi training doesn't suit a person, there's always the agricultural corps.

What are those like?

That's where you go off and work on a farm planet for the rest of your life. Nice and relaxing, not at all stressful in ways that could cause one to fall to the dark side.

Yeah, he is thinking there should be more options than those.

Falling to the dark side is very serious business. That's how one gets Sith.

...this whole thing warrants a more serious discussion. Okay. What is actually known about the Force, how many methods of handling it are known - 

There's basically the Sith and the Jedi, the Selkath have an order too, but they don't like sharing with outsiders.

It is very easy for a Force user to lock into an emotional spiral around something they care strongly about. The Sith embrace this tendency, and use it as a short, quick path to power. They act according to their whims, heedless of consequence. The end result of this should speak for itself. The Jedi take a more tempered approach. They know it's very easy to allow one's emotions to rule oneself and what comes of that. Therefore, much of their training is focused on mastery of one's passions, so that they can act with clarity and insight.

And the 'don't care about people' bit, why is that necessary?

Attachment to people is just as dangerous as attachment to objects. And it's not so much "don't care about" as "don't hold on to".

There are some pretty functional Sith. Maybe he should ask them for advice on this.

Occlus?

"Which part would you like me to critique?"

"I would like accurate information, ideally, more than a specific explanation of why beyond 'superstition and inertia' the information I have is wrong."

"The interesting thing is that the Jedi are not in fact entirely wrong in this instance. When one draws upon the Force, it tends to magnify and reinforce one's emotional state. The effect compounds over time. In the case of the Sith, this is extremely obvious. Cultural glorification of rage and hatred and so forth. The Jedi way is an attempt to retard this sort of decay, though their lack of practice with actually working through their feelings means that when one does succumb, the results are all the more dramatic."

"Huh. ...I wonder if we can just give everyone mood control, through subtle artists or wish it on somehow -"

"That may work. It is possible to prevent feeling from affecting reason without sacrificing one's capacity for the same, but few possess the native discipline required or the will to acquire it."

"We were not able to turn most of the existing Sith into functional members of society even if their occasional murder was tolerated. It'd be nice to do better with the next batch."

"Getting to them before they are inculcated with the same warped worldview will also help."

"We can conjure for force sensitives, so finding them won't be the problem. I think we'll look at subtle arts, see if there's a way to help them with the emotion management."

"May you find success in that endeavor."

"Thanks." 

It'll be a few years before it's a problem anyway. They start expanding humanitarian projects and schools and hospitals in the empire.

Bit of a change from what orders used to come down from that office, but okay. They can build those things.

Yeah, this office seems like it was poorly managed. Thus the coup. 

Ahem. Well. Yes. That.
