Kylo-Ren: Earth-Realm

Ben Solo had become Kylo-Ren (captain of the enduring post-war Sith legions) and travels back to 21st-Century Earth to don 'special' illumination and might be reborn.

A fun if deceptively 'complex' Republicanism-portrait of the fallen-Jedi (Ben Solo), Kylo Ren (Star Wars). Hope you like,

Kylo-Ren had become the supreme Sith lord and marshal of the scant surviving remnants of the fallen Sith-order following the triumph of Jedi-resurrecting knight Luke Skywalker and reconverted Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader). Now, with the Jedi restored to prominence/leadership in the universe, the Sith were wandering around as vagrant vandals, and Kylo-Ren was one of its evil captains. Ironically/tragically, Kylo-Ren was formerly the Jedi son of Han Solo and Princess Leia named Ben Solo but turned to the dark-side. Well, now Kylo-Ren sought to use a time-machine to go back to human civilization history, back to the 21st Century (2022), following the great Coronavirus tribulation(s)!

KYLO-REN: I'll travel to Cincinnati and create a sports-arena terror and root-out the 'ancestors' of the future Jedi order!

Kylo-Ren landed in New Jersey and then Cincinnati in the last Jedi-linked empire of Earth/human civilization called the United States and found a very intriguing group of Ivy League graduates, buddies who called themselves the Friends, making a WiFi cyber-net communication networking social-media station/base for their eco-conservationist ideas in the post-9/11 era, and this 'base-station' was the iconic Wingate Hotel, which boasted 21st Century (2022) amenities for great global Internet resources. Kylo-Ren was certain these so-called 'Friends' of the United States, were somehow 'ancestors' of the future Jedi order.

KYLO-REN: These so-called 'Friends' (United States) of Ivy League origin(s) are 'the' Jedi predecessors; I'll ruin Facebook!

FRIENDS ('USA'): Imagery of 9/11 trauma for commerce-IQ requires lenses of great Republicanism creative-arts (Blog).

Kylo-Ren took one of these 'Friends' members to a Reds-Dodgers game in Cincinnati (United States) and chatted with him about the magical contours of light and darkness and between Republicanism and terrorism. He told his Friends game-pal, Amlan Satan, that he'd be considered some kind of future 'star-republic' knight or 'captain' of defense of Republicanism, given his eccentric preferences and interest(s) in socialized forms of democratic thrills. He also told Satan (Amlan!) that the hypothetical future 'galaxy-republic' adventure may involve two great 'factions' of ideologically contrasting 'dominions' and one would be invested in democratic ideas and the other fascism. He then shocked Satan (Amlan!) by asking him to imagine Amlan was enjoying the Reds (baseball!) game with him in the post-9/11 era as a 'time-traveler' bystander who just might be a future 'radical' challenging Republicanism after becoming 'jaded' by worldly sciences.

KYLO: You can't 'think' this Red-sport magic-optimism is somehow timeless, Satan.
AMLAN: I do believe in that, Kylo...it's all about photojournalism now, cyber-youth.
KYLO: Sports won't save the world from terrorism.
AMLAN: Sure it can, Kylo...the Qatar World Cup will be the first Muslim-hosted soccer event!
KYLO: Maybe that's cool, but Republicanism is always 'daunted' by 'alien' science(s).
AMLAN: You're not wrong; but modern youth-ed/energy requires a 'stance' for great magazine frills.
KYLO: What's a magazine?
AMLAN: It's a slick/glossy paper-thin publication for social discourse/markets for capitalism or philosophy.
KYLO: Isn't capitalism philosophy?
AMLAN: Well, it certainly feels like it might be in this post-9/11 era of commerce-bridge diplomacy worries.
KYLO: Yes, terrorists despise Western sensibility regarding the 'frills' of consumerism lifestyle on Earth.
AMLAN: That's true, Kylo...but we've got to find creative ways to celebrate the 'thrills' of dollars!
KYLO: You sound like a knight or ideologist (like 'Citizen Kane').
AMLAN: I agree...maybe because I'm in 'deep' love with a 'doughnut' model.

KYLO-REN: This Amlan Satan ('Friends') has 'moved' me to think more 'chipper' about capitalism-IQ; I'll try my hand at heroics.

The dark Sith post-war captain/marshal Kylo-Ren journeyed back to his own time with report(s) for the enduring Sith legion in the universe and explained the 'predecessors' of the triumphant Jedi-order were perhaps some kind of Earth-civilization cyber-networking youth-educated activists pioneering 'true' forms of commerce grids for profit-sharing and creative arts for sports and media cadence. This was arguably the 'seed-origins' of the Jedi dominion, and Kylo-Ren started feeling for the first time in a long time like he was the old 'dutiful' Jedi-son of Han/Leia and wondered if he'd try to defect against his own Sith legion(s) and attempt some kind of 'creative' post-war Jedi-Sith bridge-dragon.
