    Yeah, cause it’s fiction idiot. You know, the thing where we can have clear cut situations that are entirely black and white. Where one side is entirely evil and the entire one pure good. Reality fucking sucks

      That’s the fun part about Palestine. Reality rarely gets as black and white as it is there.

      And still our country is cheering for black.

        This post could support both sides

        Just like in the movies, if you only tell the story from one side. You could ignore the October attack and sympathize with Palestine

          That is like sympathizing with the Nazis and the Jews in WW2 at the same time.

          Many people sympathized with the Nazis in WW2. Everything was so much more gray black then. But then we found out that "wait Genocide is bad this is actually pretty black and white.’ And so it is with Palestine which is currently under attack by the modern day Nazis.

            Okay since you appear to already sympathize with Palestine and can’t seem to understand my post because of it

            You could ignore the civilian attacks by the IDF and sympathize with Israel

          • While they chant from river to sea. That has been their slogan way before October 7th. They always been a terroristic people. That’s why they allow and voted in a terrorist organization to govern them way before October 7th.

        Hamas launches rockets from schools and hospitals, kills other Muslims who cooperate with Israel

        Has in its founding charter the death of all Jews

        Rarely gets as black and white as it is there

        🤔

      Yup. Often when “It is a period of civil war” the rebels are horrible people, as we saw in the US civil war. Also Star Wars takes a lot from WWII, a conflict where an Alliance (Allies) defeated an Empire. Actually multiple Empires.

      The uniforms of the Star Wars Empire look a lot like the German Empire, and the trench run was like a dam-busting bombing run and Hoth was like Dunkirk. But the allies had significantly more resources than the Empires had in WWII. Also the Allies was the side that built a super weapon.

      So… what should we learn from Star Wars? I dunno… fascism is bad even if they might have cool uniforms. That and… pew pew pew voom voom.
