1 -- I have a surprising amount of imagination. More than I need, to be honest. 2 -- Because villains CLEARLY don't react to events with the reactions of "normal, sensible people". If villains reacted with common sense, then they wouldn't try to blow up the fucking world every two minutes. They would talk it through. They would sit down with the good guys, or go to therapy. 3 -- See 1, but substitute "fiction" for "imagination" 4 -- Good for you. I am sure your parents are very proud of you. Unless you're an orphan, then I apologise for bringing up your parents. 5 -- Luke wanted to join The Empire, not the resistance. What do you think "Transmit my application to the academy" meant? He was signing up to be a good little fascist just like all the other fascists.
Okay, so all your stupid points are not worth addressing, but you should definitely know that Luke's goal was to join his friends Biggs and Wedge in the resistance, and he finally did. And everyone on Earth who paid attention enough to know he was trying to join the military knows whose side he was trying to join. Not to mention his goals in the first movie constantly align with rescuing the rebel princess and spiting the Empire. You seem to like to make shit up.
