I’ve always felt sexual repression is an important part of fascist playbooks but couldn’t explain why. This writeup is great for that.
Also, in Jedi: Survivor, after Order 66, Cal Kestis abandons the Jedi ideals and takes on a girlfriend. It’s pretty satisfying.
Lategame spoilers
There’s also a lategame struggle against the Dark Side. It becomes your L3+R3 super mode, and Cal openly admits he wants his friends to hold him back from using it too much. Could be a bit of a statement on using violence and anger in extreme scenarios, more than just “100% nonconfrontational pacifism all the time”.
