The ''Horseshoe theory'', is the the theory in which; 1. Radical ideas that are pure antonyms hold the exact same arguments. 2. Seeing as the ideas in question hold the same arguments, anyone blindly following one belief, will eventually transfer to mindlessly following the opposing idea.
The only exceptions are the people who lose their ability to, and the people who never had the ability to. The notion behind this concept, is that all extremes are bad. The only way of falling into an extreme belief is by being brainwashed. Only The Sith deal in absolutes after all.
The Theory is generally used referring to the far left, and the far right on the political spectrum. However, it can also be used to explain other instances where someone changes their opinion on a matter.

A great example of the Horseshoe Theory, is Benito Mussolini. Mussolini was an anti-war socialist who later became a pro-war fascist.

The song that played in Revenge of the Sith when Obi-Wan and Anakin fight on Mustafar. A lot like Duel of the Fates, except a lot more emotional.
Duel of the Fates and Battle of the Heroes are the best two songs from the Star Wars prequels.
While Duel of the Fates was appropriate for the duel against Darth Maul, who had no connection to Qui-Gon or Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan and Anakin were friends and John Williams and George Lucas decided they needed something more emotional than just another high intensity fight song. Also part of the soundtrack that, along with the lightsaber duels and action scenes, is what saved the prequels from being completely terrible.
