  1. "The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil."

    Andor is IMHO the best storytelling of any Star Wars movie/show.

    If you're into politics, watch it. There's parallels there for our times.

    If you haven't seen it, skip this video because spoilers, even though this is a look into a minor character.

  2. Jetzt habe ich #StarWars im obigen Video zu #Zivilreligion als "reinen #Mythos" gewürdigt.

    Aber ich komme in einer Sache nicht weiter & bitte Kundige im #Fediversum um Hilfe. Was ist das für eine #Brosche & #Symbol, das #MonMothma während ihrer wichtigsten Rede im #Senat trägt? Bisher finde ich dazu einfach gar nichts. Danke für alle Hinweise, liebe Mit-Nerds & -Nerdinen! Möge die Macht mit Euch sein! youtube.com/shorts/RVh8fF9Zbgc

  3. Unlike many people, I don't want to see Bix again, especially as a mother. She has a perfect ending already, anything more would lessen that moment.

    B2EMO is the one who deserves a resolution. Innocent and without existential control, that abandonment was harsh and unjustified.

    I hope tonight's final arc doesn't fall into sentimentality, or fan service of any kind, but continues the tone and quality of its preceding arc.

  8. Art Imitating Life

    Sometimes I hate it when art has to imitate life. I hate it even more when the people being called out metaphorically by said art are too fucking stupid to realize the art is talking about them.

    Mild spoilers for Andor season two episode nine. If you haven’t seen the episode, or if you haven’t seen Star Wars Rebels season three episode 18 (I think that’s the one), stop reading. You have been warned.

    Last chance to bail (Bail Organa, if you will)…

    In Star Wars The Return of the Jedi, a rebel leader gives a briefing spelling out the details of the second Death Star. It’s the “many Bothans died” speech. That character’s name is Mon Mothma. She was a senator who became one of the primary leaders of the Rebel Alliance. She shows up in a deleted scene in Revenge of the Sith, then she shows up for real in Rogue One and Rebels and Ahsoka and she’s one of the main characters in Andor. In a novel that is canon and takes place after Return of the Jedi she is actually elected to be the first Chancellor of the New Republic. Pretty sure that’s the job she’s doing in her brief scene in Ahsoka, but I have to go back and watch that entire series again just to be sure.

    In Rebels we learn that her last act as a senator was to give a speech where she called out the Emperor as the bad guy for the whole galaxy. She gets chased out of the capital and smuggled to the rebel base by our Rebels heroes. Once at the rebel base she gives another speech that basically calls for revolution and the rest is Star Wars history.

    This week’s third episode of Andor gave us the speech at the senate. It was perfect. Both in terms of the story itself and for our current shit show of a country. Replace the name Emperor Palpatine with Donald Trump, or even Orange Shit Clown, and it stops being fiction and starts being reality.

    The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.

    “This Chamber’s hold on the truth was finally lost on the Ghorman Palaza. What took place yesterday… what happened yesterday on Ghorman was unprovoked genocide. Yes, genocide. And that truth has been exiled from this Chamber. And the monster screaming the loudest, the monster we’ve helped create, the monster who will come for all of us soon enough, is Emperor Palpatine.

    Like I said… I hate it when art has to imitate life, and I hate it even more when the monster and his cult are too fucking stupid to realize they are the monsters and not the heroes. Fucking maga cult bullshit.

    That’s all I have to say about that.
