The rebellion was the Vietnamese. It was an allegory. You've been in the empire the whole time.
- At least as far the Star Wars is concerned, it was a Republic for a bit... Then IDK, something about the price of eggs and the Sith took over.
  
  Episode I starts with trade wars. Sooo...
- Found the tankie!
  
  The fuck you on about, that is literally the allegory said by George Lucas himself https://www.amc.com/blogs/george-lucas-reveals-how-star-wars-was-influenced-by-the-vietnam-war--1005548

Awesome we are the rebels and there really is an evil empire in power. Going to start wearing the logo now.

I won't give you that until you blow up a military base, Mr. Hamill
- Trump will build the Death Star in pure gold, that's when we send in the big guns, 73 year old actor, Mark Hamill.

Um acktually Mark Hamill played a member of the Resistance as recently as 2019 in his iconic Star Wars role of Boolio the Ovissian (I am of course not counting the farcical Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy (2024) nor Hamill’s lesser pre-Resistance roles in The Book of Boba Fett (2021-2022) or The Mandalorian (2019-2023) series). He played a member of the Rebellion on film as recently as 1983. He’s going to have to proton torpedo a whole lot of fascists to get my forgiveness for making such an elementary error.
- Fake fan. They're photon torpedoes.
  
  it fucks me up that star wars has somehow decided that their torpedoes are light-based but their lasers aren't
- Well... Star Wars takes place a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. It doesn't matter when he took the role, he was playing a member of the Resitance a long time ago.

Apparently posting shit on the Internet counts as rebellion
