You know I said a few months ago that Andor was so good it made me re-evaluate my opinion on the Mandalorian. I guess the showrunners felt the same way because that last episode reeks hard of them trying and FAILING to do political intrigue.
Just putting aside the fact that every single person in the "Amnesty Program" should have faced a firing squad: whose bright fucking idea was it to house them all together???? "Oh golly gee wiz, let's just stuck a whole bunch of space fascists and collaborators in a tiny little neighborhood. Surely nothing will go wrong!!!" I suppose its technically canonical that the new republic is incompetent as shit given how things play out with the first order but sheesh guys.
Just stick to what you know guys. More pew pew and vroom vroom. Leave the political drama to the adult writers in the room. You will never ever be as good as Andor....and that is OK.
Is this a surprise? The sequel trilogy already showed the New Republic is a bunch of libs. We know now through Mando that there are a bunch of Imperial remnants and regional powers around the galaxy doing nefarious shit and the New Republic is tripping over itself to dismantle warships and decommission fleets. Coruscant is filled with wealthy elite types that don't care who's in power at long as they keep their status.
