The UK government, in its desperate act of neutralising protest, is some real Palpatine/ISB shit.

The rule of two. Musk is like Maul. Thought he was the one but was easily discarded. A new apprentice will no doubt emerge.

I wonder how many in the Galaxy actually supported the Empire, how many stayed quiet and how many joined rebellions across it.

What's brilliant about #Andor is that in deeply oppressive regimes, the higher echelons of society can still, very superficially, exist. The wedding celebrations in such opulent surroundings showed that. But beneath the surface, even those people were not free.

"There is no justice, no law, no order, except for the one that will replace it!" — Maul
#Clonewars season 7.
Maul was right. That last monologue, standing before a somewhat naive Ahsoka, was tragic and yet so accurate. Too often what replaces oppression is another form of it.

Don't forget that #Palpatine initially kept the Senate. A facade of #democracy. Authoritarian leaders often feel it necessary to keep institutions functioning, to trick the people into a false sense of normality...

Palpatine orchestrated the Trade wars to create conflict so he could take full control over the galaxy. He was democratically elected, of course. Even the #Jedi were deceived.

#Andor is a refugee story. One highlighting the cruelty of imperialism, of occupation. Resistance is born out of such injustice. Refugees do not want to leave their homes. They are forced to.

The genius of #GeorgeLucas is that he created an entire fictional world to expose the brutal and cruel nature of colonialism and imperialism. All the more prescient now.
