  • The first thought the petty-bourgeoise breadtuber has on any given topic is “how will this affect my brand?”

    This realisation enables you to understand why influencers are fundamentally always going to be a deradicalising force except for the cases where they are self-sacrificial. With that said however there are absolutely no breadtubers I can name who are self-sacrificial in the same way that other names with platforms are like Kneecap, Bobby Vylan, Ms Rachel or others who are actively sacrificing the things they can do and the breadth of their potential audiences for what is right. There are no, NO breadtubers who are sacrificing or doing as much as Ms Rachel, who would not even profess to be anything more than a children’s entertainer, let alone an “activist” like these influencer twerps would say they are.











  • Oooo that is a good way to look at it! Yes, the revolutionaries are not creating their own thing after destroying the empire, they were coopted into restoring the republic. It’s the best way to illustrate how things could have been different if more of the people who spearheaded the revolution in the first place had survived to say “this isn’t what we are fighting for”.

    It’s also pretty obvious why everyone at that table was talking dirty about Luthen. They knew he would be a barrier to their own goals as an outsider. The same could be said of their interpretation of Saw as an “extremist”. Luthen never had such a negative interpretation of Saw because really they mostly shared the same goal compared to the Republic restoration troupe.



  • That is exactly how I see it. A revolution that was stolen. It has nowhere to go but around the same cycle again until the revolution is completed or the entire galaxy is destroyed.

    Andor honestly fixes the bad writing of Disney’s sequels. I don’t know whether it was intentional or not but it really locks in just how and why the republic is so dogshit after the rebellion. It only took a few simple scenes of seeing how these fucks talked about Luthen to really understand how bad they are. It reminds me so much of how liberals talk about communists.


  • On the contrary I actually like this.

    The way I see the Star Wars timeline is as a February revolution without an October revolution because all the most important revolutionaries that would have continued fighting to make sure a just society is created all died.

    What you got were the fuckwit liberals coopting the work of revolutionaries and basically just attempting to build the Republic all over again, which is just as flawed if not more so due to lack of resources as the original Republic was.

    This leads to the fascists successfully regrouping and the absolutely insufferable liberal resistance seen in the sequel trilogy. The only fucked up part of the sequel trilogy is that fascists lose, they should have won and fascism should have descended upon the galaxy again as it is currently descending again in our world.

    Had Nemik, Luthen, Andor, Guerrera and others survived the revolution they would have gone on to fight a second revolution against these liberals and you’d have had a communist society built upon the foundations of social theory written by Nemik and revolutionary theory conceived by Luthen. Had both of these people survived to make it to Yavin the entire Rebel forces would have been trained in a revolutionary ideology while they had the chance to.




  • It’s not about the UN, it’s about the primary contradiction.

    China’s sees imperialism vs anti-imperialism is the primary contradiction in the world, and that the imperial core countries will never have revolutions until they no longer materially benefit from the resources they take from the periphery.

    China’s position on sovereignty will strengthen the periphery countries until they are strong enough to resist imperialism, at which point the imperial core will lose their resources. When this happens the core countries will not accept the loss of profit, they will pursue it elsewhere and the only place to pursue it will be to cannibalise the core. This cannibalisation will result in the conditions for revolution in core countries.

    China is maintaining complete consistency on their sovereignty position because it’s supposed to lead to the conditions necessary for communism to win.
