The Jedi are just as bad as the Sith: A thread...
Exhibit A: as we all witnessed in The Phantom Menace, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are saints for saving Anakin from a life of slavery right? WRONG! They enslaved him in the Jedi order and left his mother to rot in the desert...they could’ve saved her, but she was of not use to them. Sad.
Exhibit B: The Jedi seek to stifle the human spirit. They claim that emotions are a pathway to the dark side, and in essence rebuke people for being who they naturally are. The bad becomes good and the good becomes bad. Pathetic.
Exhibit C: They routinely label themselves arbiters of freedom and peace...except they were the exact opposite. They are religious fanatics who view anyone that is unaccepting as enemies and were the mechanism for forced sanctions across the galaxy on any descent.
Exhibit D: Their idea of “freedom” was the mass suppression of knowledge regarding the faction that represented their polar opposite. Sith holocrons were destroyed when found and records of their existence were consistently wiped clean.
Exhibit E: The very core of their ethos was flawed to say the least:
“There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no passion, there is serenity”
Does that sound like rational, logical musings? Yeah...didn’t think so.
Jedi are the very definition of “Eutopia wackos”.

We could go on all night long with this, but bottom line: the Jedi were puritanical elitists who trampled just as many lives as the empire, if not more so. The Sith, while completely authoritarian, at least offered technology in exchange for their egregious actions...
..and I’ve gotta say, black is a way cooler look than burlap bathrobes. I’ll leave you with the Sith code (woefully superior) and the Jedi code (laughably inferior)...
Sith (badass)
Peace is a lie. There is only Passion.
Through Passion I gain Strength.
Through Strength I gain Power.
Through Power I gain Victory.
Through Victory my chains are Broken.
The Force shall free me.

Jedi code (clowntown):
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
