We Offered the world ORDER!
Today, for those of us across the dateline. I think I'm skipping work this afternoon. :)
Star Wars has a plot?
I know someone who works with Somalis. They have had it rough, and come from extremely rough country, full of things that are almost unspeakable, like people being tied to trees and left to die.
What? Overlook the planet they destroyed? Some Americans are craving having a Nazi like empire these days.
Yeah, no doubt. That's all the Nazis and the Soviets wanted too. The same goes for Mao Zedong, Kim Jong Il, Saddam Hussein, and whatever other autocrat one might favor.
Freedom is inherently disorderly. Some people will always prefer order instead of freedom. This little jack-boot thug is obviously one of those.
Bttt.
Fifth? Do we not count the original "Star Wars" when counting installments?
1 original + 5 installments = 6 films?
We Offered the world ORDER!
Sure the Empire is evil, but they had some damn cool toys.
I have another two questions that the author didn't pose:
Why is a Princess so damn great, while an Emperor is lousy? What makes a bunch of dorks--and I'm sorry, but this guy
oozes DORK--in new age robes whose magic power is on the basis of their midichlorian count such great thinkers, while a ton of average guys who wear pants are so 'evil?'
Just thinking about that makes me wanna go watch Troops again...and this time, root for the good guys.
Leia is practicing taqiayy the muslim art of lieing to advance islam. I always knew there was a reason I liked the Empire.
I can even understand the destruction of Alderaan, remember Leia was elected by Alderaan by the people of that planet to represent them in the Galactic Senate. Since Leia was a tratior, ergo, those who vote for her are probably traitors too.
On the other the Rebellion was basically much like the 60's radical with more firepower. And we have all seen the evil that the 60's radicals have created when they are in power, we currently call them the Democratic party.
Now both the Rebellion and the Empire are evil organization, but at least the Empire had it's act together and I could respect them for that.
Some one has way too much time on their hands. They need to get a real job, pay taxes and support the people on welfare.
I have yet to see any of the Star Wars movies. Who cares ?
"The mass-extinction event at Endor is an inevitable physical consequence of the circumstances at the end of Return of the Jedi."
"Antilles found several stuffed ewok specimens on display with a note that the innocent creatures had been made extinct on their native world through the actions of rebels. Though unwelcome news to members of the squadron which detonated the battle station, this report appears to be objectively true. The museum display provides satisfying corroboration for the realistic fate of the ewoks."
"From the Imperial point of view, the holocaust at Endor was an act of reckless ecological vandalism by wild political fanatics. For the Rebel Alliance, the devastation was an unfortunate side-effect of the necessary destruction of a war-machine which was poised to deliver worse destruction throughout the civilised galaxy."
bttt
I missed this interesting read the first time around. Thanks for posting it!
This is even worse, because then they get guns with which to exercise their thuggery.
You can always thwart the little Napolean running your company by simply quitting your job or not buying his overpriced, underperforming products. Try telling the BATF to mind their own business.
