The mouth of Sauron has spoken

[The Architect Of Fate]

The paradigm case is still Star Wars, as I think everyone already knows.

It's a huge corporate franchise dedicated to making Americans think they're the attractive rebels, when in fact their country is the Empire.

Wow, yet another fictional franchise you don't understand.


To start with you realize George Lucas based The Empire on the United States and based The Rebels on Viet Con and throughout the franchise that good and evil are a matter of perspective. Also in the Recent show, Andor and Rogue One and frankly going all the way back to the Dark Horse comics we see the Rebels aren't squeaky clean and are willing to use underhanded tactics to win.

 I don't even want to get into the Clone Wars Era where we have a group of well-meaning star systems trying to escape exploitation by a corrupt and uncaring Republic only to have their movement hijacked by a group of greedy corporate assholes and the Sith versus said corrupt uncaring Republic made of power-hungry senators who use essentially a slave army made up of child soldiers to execute their war lead by supposed guardians of peace.
