I remember saying to a Star Wars nerd that the resistance fighters in the 1977 movie were definitely modeled after the Viet Cong, and the Storm Troopers in Rogue One were definitely supposed to evoke imagery of American troops occupying Iraq. He called me a piece of shit and said that Star Wars isn't political.
“Damn bro I understand your stupid little space movies more than you do. I’m gonna have to revoke your nerd status, now you’re just a loser” :fidel-cool: :fidel-balling:
