Repugnant comments in response to someone comparing Iran to Ghorman. Libs truly cannot have a modicum of humanity with the third world. These same people will say "don't let perfect be the enemy of good" when asking you to support the people who bombed Gaza to rubble. A LOT of Ukraine flag bio posting in there as well. People saying Ukraine is the real perfect victim cause their government has never hurt anyone. Yeah 8 years of bombing schools and arming literal nazis was just nothing, just epic wholesome shit. They want to pretend to be anti-fascist cause they watched a show, but they will worship actual fascists in a second

I said at the time that the choice to make the Ghor French-coded belied the fact that they couldn't imagine making audiences empathize with "imperfect" victims or even minority coded victims.

It is a dead-end, not radicalism or a call to action. These people jack off to "I have friends everywhere" signs cause they recognize a fellow consumer, but they will not recognize the legitimacy of states opposing the west.

After watching Mandalorian I got really disenchanted with the Star Wars franchise after being a life long fan. Is Andor worth watching?

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 8 points 2 hours ago

It's better than every piece of Star Wars media except maybe A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back.

Andor is really fucking good and I got disenchanted with Star Wars over 20 years ago

Yes. Especially if you're a life long Star Wars fan. It's the single best piece of Star Wars visual media since the original trilogy.

Edit: I'm sure you know this, but just in case others don't, be sure to find a way to watch it without giving Disney any money.

Andor is worth watching even if you don't care about or even hate Star Wars. Until the second half of the second season it could pretty much be any sci-fi setting. It still has lib bits but any Marxist will appreciate a lot of it.

I haven't paid attention to any of the new Star Wars content post the prequels (2000s), not watched a bit of it but I watched this on a recommendation and it was absolutely worth it. It has a permanent place in my media collection now.
