    But did Luke shove knives into captive women’s vaginas?

      Typical liberal whataboutism - do you selectively become a feminist and LGBTQ activist to justify Islamophobia? Do you understand what a genocide is?

      You get to live under a roof, have a job to provide for your family, food to indulge in, and other luxuries to pass your time. You don’t have to worry about starving, freezing or being shot to death by ultra-violent forces, who get paid for killing innocents, denying the most basic human rights.

      When the framework of society collapses to nothingness, the illusion of civilized behavior also goes down, and everything descends to chaos, including the mental well-being.

      Whether you like it or not, this vile, hard-hitting reality no longer prevent rape, murder or cannibalism - these are all tools of war - it has always been, for thousands of years. Your privilege of being isolated from this nightmare is why you can say shit about the oppressed. This has been going for almost seventy years - four generations have lived under this oppression.

      Did you forget the time when the Palestinians did a peaceful protest, and were immediately shot down by the IOF? And assuming that you’re an American citizen, these Zionists squashed a young American girl to death under their tank. Your government, the big-n-mighty USA could do nothing to bring her to justice, against the teeny-tiny Shitrael. But hey, your brain-fog is conditional, isn’t it?

      No, he did not. Luke didn’t start the war, that’s the literal plot of Andor. And, by the way, Cassian Andor is not a good person, the show and movie both make that quite clear. He is a protagonist, yes, and, in my opinion, at his core a good man; but he and those he assists do some terrible things in the name of freedom.

      And Luke gets dragged into it when jackbooted thugs burn his home, kill his family, and eventually take one of his hands.

      How many innocent Palestinian children’s stories does that man’s path parallel? There are thousands of orphans, thousands of underage amputees currently not getting enough to eat, and still you call for more punishment. Shame on you. Down with the Empire. Long live the Rebellion.
