    Anarchism is a left wing ideology, mate.

    The empire is the same, its simply run via fascism with an emperor instead of elected leaders?

    Collectivist anarchism maybe, like it existed in Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War.

    Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

    Nah. It has a solid chance of going belly up if number 8 is indeed just modernized Empire Strikes Back.

    Well, I think it can exist on both sides. It just depends on the persons in and out of power.

    No, the people complaining about Star Wars and saying it's left wing propaganda.

    If you want to bitch about an -actual- piece of left wing propaganda, go watch Ferngully (which is so hamfisted and preachy that even I hate it).

    There's kind of a difference between a completely made up idea of Rogue One promoting anti-white sentiments (Which is laughable) and protesting something in reality. Or being butthurt a...cereal company pulled advertisements from a website. Unless context doesn't matter to you?
    It's funny that context matters randomly. Did it matter when people were triggered that people didn't like Ghostbusters?

    It would be like saying "The Rebels are a Jihadist movement!" I.e. completely missing the point and just trying to label shit in a fictional world with moronic Real-life Buzzwords.
    Um, Admiral ACKBAR. #mindblown

    Yes, because some reasons were laughably stupid.

    Being mad it was all women vs the many problems with the script. Or insert 4-5 other actual complaints about the movie.

    Surely this concept of context isn't new to you?

    I play this board game with my brother where he uses admiral ackbar which gives him 2 extra die, when ever this happens he yells Alla Ackbar when he rolls them for extra luck.

    Fern Gully is a great movie. Who couldn't love Tim Curry as the embodiment of Oil tycoon corruption and destruction.

    If you think about it, most people in the world:

    - Are not white but were at some point or another ruled by whites, and thus would naturally would be against white people as a rule
    - Are for the most part conservative and traditionalist in their world view, and would be broadly categorized as right wing

    Put those two together.

    Mon Mothma is one of the leaders though. Female Leader kind of makes it less believable.

    Not liking a movie because it's flawed or, you know, bad is fine.

    Not liking a movie because its leads happen to be vagina-havers is not fine and usually makes the holder of said opinion a cunt, ironically enough.

    Ferngully as a total unit is pretty bad, in my opinion. Tim Curry was the sole saving grace...kinda like Gilbert Gottfried and Aladdin 2.

    Plus you could tell ghostbuster was gona suck a miles away, the trailer jokes were all just cringe city. Rogue one trailers have been pretty good, im more existed for that movie than Episode 7.

    Ghostbusters was enjoyable enough, but it missed so many opportunities to take advantage of the original IP. Waste imo.
