Is Star Wars Political?
>>217363633>THANK YOU I WILL DO WHAT YOU TELL ME!
>>217363633how do you got from a guy that made "Killing in the name of" to a literal fucking NPC...?
>>217363684Anon, if they signed a contract, they are all cattle. It's sad but true, sometimes they make good music, but they are a all controlled opposition.
>>217363633>Is Star Wars Political?I think not since my favorite Star Wars are The sequels trilogy.
>>217363633I hate nu-Star Wars>Empire magically back after the first trilogy>They're hyper dangerous supposedly>But they're goofy clowns to be easily butchered on screen>The empire is always easily defeated and yet people keep joining it for some reason>Naturally, they're all white and usually British too even though the evil empire of the real world is currently the US>The "RESISTANCE" are all weird dysgenic multi racial weirdos following the orders of blue haired female generals who talk shit to the few white men under their command>Somehow Palpatine has returned>Luke Skywalker didn't do shit for some reason>Rey is a master Jedi for existing>Kylo Ren is useless and a non-threat from the very start, he's not allowed to beat Rey in a single fight since that would be patriarchy so there he is, a complete pussy who loses at every turn>He kills Goldmember I guess.Make it make sense!
>>217363684Dude, punk scene was ran by the CIA.
A New Hope is Vietnam in space.
>>217363684You think they actually ever believed that shit? It was about selling records. The studios wait for some trend or sentiment to pop up organically and then hire jews to steal the style. It happened with folk music and Bob Dylan.
>>217364319>The studios wait for some trend or sentiment to pop up organically and then hire jews to steal the style.If even. Punk rock was for example made from the ground up by the industry.
>>217363783None of this happened, you suffer from autism.
>>217363633Yes, according to Lucas the empire are american imperialists.
>>217364377Some, sure. Are you saying Crass were industry plants?
>>217363633Entertainment is inherently apolitical, as it must appeal to as broad an audience as possible. There have been attempts to subvert this reality, and all have failed financially.>But what about couter-example?Check the sequel. It all goes broke eventually.
>>217363684They were always NPCs lmao.
>>217363684And how did conservative become the new punk?
>>217363633Lucas Star Wars>yeah the Empire are America and Nazi Germany and Palpatine is kinda a Nixon stand-in but honestly I made them to be fairytales with generic messages that fit tons of situations and I'm glad people with opposing political viewpoints still appreciate themNuWars>OMG YOU HECKIN' NAZI CHUDDERINO BIGOTS HECKIN' BULLIED ROSE OFF TWITTARD! IF YOU DON'T LIKE TLJ YOU'RE JUST A FRICKIN' DUMB REPUBLI-CAN'T
>>217363783>Empire in original: all white male>Rebellion in original: all white maleStar Wars was never political.
>>217363862Please, the viet cong never had anything remotely similar to a death star. If anything, they're more similar to tusken raiders.
>>217364691Now lets talk about the Whils of the force, if we're gonna act like 2000's Lucas is canon.
>>217363633It wasn't until Disney took over and gutted it to spread Jewish leftist filth.
>>217364818Autism.>>217364833Hollywood back then didn't like to cast non-white actors, anon.The rebels are freedom fighters, the empire are american imperialists and Leia is a deconstruction of the damsel in distress.
>>217364879>when too much black people and women exists
>>217363684State approved rebels are there to show you where the lines of acceptable defiance are drawn.
>>217364818>OMG YOU HECKIN' NAZI CHUDDERINO BIGOTS HECKIN' BULLIED ROSE OFF TWITTARD!This actually happened.
>>217364914RetardThe difference between Lucas SW and Yidsney SW is that Lucas PER HIS OWN COMMENTARY put his political opinions second. You can completely ignore all the 'Nam references and other nods because inherently, classic SW is a fairytale from which many different lessons can be taken. That's what made it appeal to everyoneYou cannot separate Yidsney SW from both the political and metanarrative senses because the directors are smug pieces of shit that can't stop pushing their own narratives. Modern SW isn't a fairytale, it's political messaging>>217364955No it didn't, she got called out on Twitter for being a shit actress and got her feefees hurt. Different from something like Ahmed Best or Jake Lloyd who DID have their lives ruined because of actual bullying. Marie never had to face actual threats or insults, just genuine criticism that much like Ruin Johnson she was unable to take to heart.
>>217364818:3
>>217363633> I almost cried Fucking faggot. What a bitch.
>>217365096>oi but lucas later said in some interviewMeaningless. We are talking about the movies, the experience watching them, word of god is pointless when it comes to these things. You can tell that knowledge of Lucas' political ideals isn't necessary because of the hordes of people that still have no clue that SW has anything to do with 'Nam. You can separate the OT and PT from real life politics and watch them as fairytale films. You cannot do that with the ST or any Disney+ show. Simple as.
>religious cult pilot guided by the voices in his head blows up the massive structure of the great empire, killing millions
>>217365172>he was trained by the cult leader living in a cave hiding from the great empire
>>217363783It’s not surprising that the empire is back since its apparent canon to the sequels that they disbanded the military after the empire fell and the new republic never formed a new one
>>217365096Yet the trilogy made her into a useless general that had no political experience
>>217363684You know what badass people don't do? Sing. It's all an act.
>>217365150Furthermore, Lucas tends to lie and cheat his way through interviews and has basically flip-flopped his way around to appease everyoneThat quote makes no fucking sense within the context of the films. Leia and Padme get their asses saved constantly by the supposed "clowns", Han, Luke, Obi-Wan and Anakin pull off consistently more impressive stunts than either do and have equally high leadership roles. Leia isn't the head of the Rebellion, Mon Mothma and Admiral Ackbar seem to have higher ranks. Padme's a random senator who consistently fails to get her way in the senateTLDR IF that quote is real, which is a big IF considering it lacks a source, it makes no fucking sense just watching the movies and Lucas just made it up to look feminist or something when the movies put the main male heroes over the heroines.
>>217363633hello there, Tom, grow up you faggot
>>217363684He was always a NPC larping as a revolutionary.
>>217363684Because "Killing in the name of" was corporate establishment slop too
>>217365019>Star Wars RepublicI still like 2008 Clone Wars but the comics are everything it should have been.
>>217363684This is the same guy who threw a fit when the leader of Shining Path got arrested during the 90’s, he’s one of those>my side good no matter what, your side bad no matter what Fuckwits
>>217363633>>217363650>>217363684>>217365616>>217363755DOES ANYONE HAVE THE PURPORTED LIST (it's written on a notepad) OF ALL THE "MUST HAVE" REQUIREMENTS RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE WOULD DEMAND OF THEIR VENUES TO BE AVAILABLE TO THEM BACKSTAGE?LIKE A FUCKING 40 POINT LIST OF RIDICULOUS SHIT LIKE SPECIFIC BRAND WATER AND TREATS AND DIFFERENT CATERING AND OTHER SHITJUST ABSOLUTE FAGGOT FUCKING ENTITLED ROCKSTAR COCKSUCKER SHIT
>>217365840all these items are absolutely necessary for fighting the power
>>217365882And most of that besides the alcohol and mixers probably goes untouched.
>>217365882>>217365840why are all rich communists like this?They actually think everyone should be their slaves.Most billionaires don't act this way.Warren Buffet lives in a modest middle class house.Steve Jobs wore walmart blue jeans and a black shirt.
>>217365840>>217365882What was shown in the OP is cringe but that's a common band thing.The idea goes that if you put down an incredibly complicated series of requirements for the backstage and the venue is able to meet them its also a good indicator that the venue has shit like lightning and effects worked out also.Yeah, basically all major bands do a shit test on venues and if the venue fails tis a red flag.
the worst part is that to get to general you had to do dozens of literal fetch quests in the park instead of going on the rideswalking around pretending to scan signals and contraband with your iphone for hours
>>217363633>tfw Jenny Nicholson, a theme park superfan, did more to bring down a corporate behemoth than a supposedly anti establishment rockstar
>>217366023Tom Morello is a faggot member of the faggot performative anarchist/commie band RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE. The staff member knew he was a celebrity fraud REVOLUTIONARY and "skipped him in line" to "General".
>>217365882>72 litres of Fiji still waterThose faggots are the same ones crying about how capitalism is destroying the planet.
>>217363633I'm still shocked Morello ended up being a bugger onions that Rocha
>>217365996Bands do that sometimes like Van Halen's famous brown m&ms but this is pretty clearly just a list of diva demands
>>217365882If I was there it wouldn’t have gone down that way, everyone would be given a can of creamed rice and a bottle of absinthe and they would be God dam happy with what they got
>>217366332hell yeah mark you've always been a real one
