Hunger Games is about revolutionary anti-imperial class struggle
George Lucas said the Empire is inspired by America and the Rebels by the Viet Minh
The Matrix was created by a trans woman and at least partly an allegory for being trans
Divergent is shitty lib fanfiction but very obviously anti-conservative
Alan Moore was a communist or anarchist
wow these movies are just like January 6th when we resisted communism by smearing our shit on the capitol walls!!
The point of the whole “I DECLARE AN EMPIRE” bit was that he didn’t change the role of the republic much. The two were fundamentally the same at the time of the clone wars and the republic couldn’t stop it. It’s just a Hindenburg allegory.
i know i just wish he didn’t say the line
could have just declared himself “lifetime chancellor ushering in a new Imperium” and by the next installment people are talking about palpatine’s “Empire” and then just “the Empire”
I love it because it is so blatant. I want Star Wars to be cartoonish with that shit honestly. Lucas making his Nixon/Bush stand in declare himself Hitler is just funny
Yeah people need to remember these are movies for children and that hamfisted nature should be expected.
