Disorders of Magnitude

Disorders of Magnitude was a holodrama and piece of anti-Jedi propaganda created by the Coalition for Progress of the Galactic Empire. Created to paint the Force-using Jedi Order in a negative light, the drama depicted crazed ideologues that aimed to indoctrinate children and turn them against their parents, claiming to possess "magic powers." The shared reference points used by the drama and other pieces of propaganda struck a mark with the audience despite the villains never explicitly being identified as Jedi. In 35 ABY, the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned Disorders of Magnitude in his book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire.
