Sith are different from Dark Jedi, yes. for IRL analogs, the Jedi Order is like the catholic church around Luther’s time. The Sith are satanists, Dark Jedi are like Protestants.
Dark Jedi still perceive the Force under the paradigm of the Jedi, they just choose to embrace the Dark Side.
the third type of Jedi- Gray Jedi probably existed inside the Order itself- people like Jinn and Revan.
I had always thought it was an “all Sith are Dark Jedi, but not all Dark Jedi are Sith” thing. In that Dark Jedi are any force users that embrace the Dark Side, while the Sith represent a specific lineage/tradition of Dark Jedi, tracing back to the Sith species and the Sith Empire.
Eh. yeah. Kind of. Apparently NuCanon is that the Sith split from the Jedi “thousands of years ago.” the point I was trying to make is that it’s a question of degrees- medieval catholicism would have viewed protestants as heretics (and did all sorts of ugly things to them.); where the really dangerous ones were branded as satan-worshipers and… actively disposed of.
That said, the Sith definitely became their own little social club, and made sure everyone knew that they were distinct from the dark jedi.
Darth Maul was in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, and you could change his special to the Dark Slide!
Looking it up, he also has the Dark Jedi Grind, which seems wrong, like aren’t the sith and dark Jedi different?
