this is a star trek board nerd
You belong in a furnace.
Honestly since we have no clue (or at least I don't) about the economical stance of the empire, (even if I suppose they are kinda facist in order to have a powerfull military) nor the rebels we can't realy know for sure who to support.
anyway in the extended universe it seemed like every planet had a different way to do things especialy the unimportant planets that the empire kinda left alone.
so in the end with no clear economical programs on both side we can't know (maybe the rebels are a bunch of ancaps as far as we know)
by the way rogue one is a good movie and I kinda like the reflexion about the guilt of Cassian Andor about the things he did for the rebelion
The rebel alliance are a bunch of reactionaries that want to restore the failed ancien regime. They are literally run by feudal lords, senators and a princess.
LIterally asshurt liberals
Someone post phil greaves on star wars pls
Lucas is a crypto-fascist
That's kind of the point of the movie in a sense. When push comes to shove the 'leaders' of the rebellion are pussying out and saying that they should try to change the empire politically. There's literally a scene where swanky senators are spouting off liberal nonsense, not wanting a revolution. While the grunt soldiers go and bash the space fash anyway.
t. phil greaves

Interesting, I hate to sound like a dope but I honestly never thought of it in that way.
The new regime (the empire) aren't exactly revolutionaries we can get behind though. An authoritarian military regime blowing up planets and murdering civilians.
Who the fuck can we root for in this story?
...
Star Wars is ruined already. Plus, real commies are Trekkies, you fantastical faggot.
.tfw you get an injury at work and inexplicably become an ultra sectarian online M-L
At least it was better than Force awakens.
What is this ideology?
It's fucking disney you retard. When the revolution eventually comes, they will be one of the biggest counterrevolutionary forces. Disney world is literally a fortress with a private military. Buying disney shit is giving money directly to the people who are going to be killing revolutionaries.
Star Wars is a liberal fantasy. The whole light-darkside dichotomy is just another form of muh horseshoe theory. That's why Luke is the only good jedi, since he rejects it outright.

fanboyism is a false conscience
real socialists will enjoy stuff for what it is and if it sucks they will just move one and will not start fights or make a hour long youtube rant.
Get out, you crypto-fascists.
...
We need to go beyond fanboyism and anti-fanboyism!
Please, if he was a crypto-fascist you'd be supporting him.
No idea. They certainly aren't the leftcom's guys because they actually went out and did something.
/ourguy/ was Luke and only Luke because he told the pro-republic fags to go fuck themselves after the war. Most Star Wars characters are either impotent liberals or are just bland evil authoritarians. Anakin was totally a trot though.
Nigga you bout to make me an anti-fanboy. Stop elevating this bullshit as if it's some kind of doctrine.
The joke
