Would /pol/ support the Empire, or the Rebels?
Honestly the Empire isnt so bad. Sure they are kind of rough when they take shit over, but once they rule you with no opposition things are pretty nice.
>>74798091
Everytime I think of starwars I get pissed because the story was so good and then they just had to fuck everything up with episode 7.
Empire all the way, sure they had their bad shit and problems. What government doesn't? But the alternative as we saw when the rebels won. What a fucking mess
con:
to little information about empire economics and social structures
pro:
annialeted many botan shitskins to defend deathstar plans
for the empire then
Was the empire really that bad for the normal person? I mean if you had a nice job in Coruscant and didn't cause a ruckus, why would you care who was in charge?
>>74798205
They killed it with the prequels and episode 7 is pissing on the grave
That being said, I would support the Empire. It seemed stable, which is a lot better than the chaos of revolution
Hey /pol/, where do the rebels get their funding do you think?
Definitely the Empire. The rebels threw a galaxy into chaos and started a conflict that killed huge numbers of people because of some shitty Mel Gibson muh freedums.
>>74798205
Prequels made it go into a coma, but it was still alive thanks to Books and other materials
Then they fucked everything over with Episode 7 and are literally plundering anything from EU for their own shitty "canon" universe
>>74799129
dident the emporor disband the senate at the beginning of episode 4?
that made all worlds quasi indipendetly ruled and the empire a militaristic haegemonie
like fucking soviet russia
i changed my answer fuck the empire
make mandalore great again!
Trust /pol/ to be contrarian and choose the ones normies are told to hate...
>>74798091
Empire, there was a global poll done but can't find it just now.
>>74798091
Palpatine united the Galaxy under an Empire to fight an invasive alien empire from another Galaxy. Once the Rebels took over, it all fell apart and everyone just started doing whatever they wanted.
Also, the Empire was a white/human supremacist government. So, Empire all the way for me. Plus I've just always liked the Empire more, even as a kid and oblivious to politics.
>>74799287
Disney is turning Star Wars into Tumblr.
>>74800247
Not only but their """""new""""" lore is fucking shit
What do you expect from a bunch of retards who are using diversity and other special snowflakes as a means for greedy cashgrabbing
>>74799239
From Federation trader So Ros
>>74798091
>tfw America is the empire
>tfw our 9/11 was equal to the Death Star blowing up
>tfw the rebels are just a bunch of Muslims
>tfw they're still glorified in the media
>>74798911
Well, they did blow up a populated planet just to prove a point.
>>74798091
They lowered the quality of clone based stormtroopers because ol' Sheev thought a single source can be sabotaged easily so he let in normies, women and xenos
>>74798091
The empire is basically America if you think about it. They are essentially the super power of the galaxy that rules simply by having the most powerful weapons, peace through power.
There's a small sect of religious extremists that have a fantasy of bringing "balance" to the force. Their idea of balance is to exterminate anyone that doesn't bow to their exact beliefs of the force.
So they hate the power structure bringing order to the galaxy, and what do they do? They bomb the death star, killing millions of innocent workers. Honestly, think about all of the cooks, retail employees, every walk of life on the death star. Sure the death star is there for "evil" but essentially it's just there to let the galaxy know that they will accept nobody causing problems. But without thinking, the rebels led by an extremist religious type, killed them all in one swipe.
They're fucking terrorists, and they're under the guise of a "peaceful" religion. Yeah fucking right
Neither. They are both corrupt and shitty.
>>74798091
Obviously the Republic before the Ruusan Reformation, as anyone with knowledge of Star Wars lore would pic.
Pre-Ruusan
>Democratic
>Strong Chancellor
>Capitalistic as fuck
>Rule of Law
>Free Trade
Post-Ruusan
>Senate given more powers
>Weak, ineffective chancellors
>Bureaucratic
>Socialistic
>Taxation of trade routes
Also, if you picked the Empire you are memelord. Rule of Law and limited government is what made the West great and the Empire / Sith are against the concept.
>>74798091
Empire
>Stylish military. Everyone is in matching uniforms.
>Appropriate military marching music.
>Darth Vader was the hero that ushered in peace and destroyed the incompetent Jedi.
>Aliens are beneath humans, where they belong. Only Thrawn managed to break the mold by being exceptional.
>Women were largely kept in their place and out of the military hierarchy, with the few rare exceptions being shining examples that all Imperials should follow.
>Powerful enough to keep the various hutt cartels completely at bay and in their own little shitty corner of the galaxy.
>>74798091
Rebels obviously.

>>74801107
Yeah that. The empire was ruled by an evil guy. That being said... he pretty much did what was necesary to fight the alien invasion. If he wasn't so damn evil he could have been a straight up anti hero.
>>74798091
Galatic Empire all the way
Rebel Alliance is full of fucking aliens
>>74798091
empire, it's based as fuck
i've been reading the imperial handbook which is pretty good, would have been much better without the stupid scrawlings by rebels.
>>74805420
Damn just from that little extract I got so mentally hard.
Empire a best.
>>74798911
Yes. Sheev set out to be as oppressive as possible in order to create fear and misery to feed the dark side.
>>74798091
Empire. Jedi are gay sandniggers taking pretty children from their homes and training them

>>74798205
What bothers me the most is that episode 7 proofs that Sheev and Vader were right. The empire was needed, the republic was a failure and the rebels couldn't maintain the order of the galaxy. Some opposition 20 years after changing a 1000 years system was logical but it was going to end, pretty soon if Luke joined his dad to hunt the jedi scum. Nevertheless, Luke's lack of vision left the galaxy on the exact same situation of episode 4, I mean the exact same situation because fuck new things, they're scary and non-SW.

don't let me catch you in the core planets, rebel scum
>>74809530
Not really. The Empire aren't even that extreme in their purge idology and THAT is saying something. Empire with subjegate if you don't fight back will generally let you live. Its not perfect true but its better then utter chaos and destruction with species blissfully unaware until its too late. The wookies may have gotten the short end of the stick but they werent made extinct. Allah would have just purged them and raped the females. They look enough like goats.
>>74809288
>The empire was needed, the republic was a failure
It was Sheev who made the republic fail.
>>74799239
from the surviving banking clan aka the Jews
Aside from the stuff in episode 7, which isn't even the real empire, when did we ever see the Empire do ANYTHING bad? I mean as far as being a government and caring for is citizens, the Empire looked pretty comfy
>>74810260
fuck, i really bent the corner on this one

>>74810719
Watch the fucking movies.
>>74810419
The Empire would literally only go and fuck with trouble makers. They roll in and set up shop on your planet and give all the people there a few choices.
Join us peacefully and we will offer you trade and commerce from other worlds in the empire, as well as our protection should you ever come under attack.
or
We forcefully take you over with several star destroyers parked in orbit blockading you for the next 6 months making sure you get no support from any other worlds until you break and join us.
If you work with them, they let your world be. If you fuck with them they dump storm troopers and tanks on your house.
>>74810419
Tell that to the People of Alderaan.
>>74810419
I mean, blowing up a planet of billions just to prove a point should count for something

The original canon was so damn good, so in-depth. Fuck Disney, fucking kikes.
>>74798091
the empire for sure
>>74810886
>>74810863
Alderan proved time and time again that they were going to house rebels and fuck with the empire non stop.
Empire made an example of them to prevent others from doing the same.
New Order in ep7 nuking what, FIVE planets at once was just retarded though. What was the point?
>>74811009
This.
Only 3rd world shitskins like the rebels.

Fucking rebel scum got what it deserved. Peaceful my ass, Alderaan was as peaceful as the Sandniggers. Alderaan was the headquarters for the entire rebellion, Leia lied every question they ever asked her if she said it was peaceful and unarmed you can bet the place was armed as fuck and everybody knew it. Nuking it from orbit was the best way to deal with the problem.
Rebels are essentially Antifa, so definitely, I'd side with the Empire.
Also, jobs.
The empire is a fascist/totalitarian Regime. Therefore the empire is the best choice.
>>74810066
>>74810843
The republic was falling apart before Sheev do something. Slavery ran rampant, local gangsters like the Hutts had their own currency and the jedis were the only thread keeping the entire thing together.
>>74799412
He abolished the Senate and made planetary governors the leaders of their world, only answering to the emperor himself. Basically, he set up a quasi feudal system.
Likely better system. If the Republic was so fucking great, they wouldn't have been taken over by a Sith lord in the first place.
>>74811558
Also, Luke wasn't supposed to bring everything as it was before Sheev, he was supposed to made it better. It's implied the jedis are too dogmatic while the siths are too destructive so a middle point was needed, therefore the so-called balance of the force. Luke didn't follow Yoda's way but neither Sheev's way, he was something else so he could bring Anakin back from the dark side. Except JJ throw away all that for having episode 4 all over again but with social media

It's why in this particular instance, I prefer fanfiction to canon. The Son of Suns trilogy was amazing.
>>74810843
Fuck off. Not everyone knows Sheev as Sidious. Getting snippy is a bit much. Your right for what its worth. Evil for Evil's sake is pretty much the suicide move for any overlord.
>>74812640
>Not everyone knows Sheev as Sidious.
That doesn't change the fact that the downfall of the republic was his doing.

here's a paragraph on the pilots
Watching the clone wars series really made me hate Jedi.
Kit Fisto, Plo Kloon, Anakin and Ashoka Tano were the only "good" Jedi. But near the end of the series even Ashoka sees how much bullshit is in the Jedi Council and leaves the order and is no longer a Jedi.

FUCKING UBER THIS. And he was pretty good too. But he was also just one guy and everyone was happy to revert to superficial chaos after the war in the old canon. And it didn't help the Voth attacked.

Books are published fanfics but movies have the old actors and the media hype so there's something heartbreaking to know your childhood heroes were wrong and all their struggle was useless. Yeah, it's a jewish conspiracy for making shekels and all that crap but I was a lot into SW when I was a kid. Despite the many flaws of the prequels, they didn't diminish anything from the original saga.
Ironic how the big corporations expect us to drool over a trailer and watch it 20 times per day as well as retweet it to every contact we know but when we show contempt, we're man-babies with too much attachment toward a silly kids movie.

>>74816456
For making his ANH remake, JJ basically ran under the pretense of what if the nazis rebuilt their empire on Argentina, what's pretty stupid for a huge number of reasons and it's a pad on the shoulder to establishment, but it could work as a proof of how cultural irrelevant the evil empire and rebellion's division is nowadays. They literally had to go back the nazis
