they built another deathstar right? the first one was completed and fully operational before the rebels destroyed it and the second one was still being built when it was blown up

the first death star was manned by the imperial army only people on board were stormtroopers dignitaries imperials so when they blew it up no problem evil punished

the second time around it was not even done being built yet was still under construction job of that magnitude would require a hell of lot more manpower than the imperial army had to offer

bet they brought in independent contractors in on that thing plumbers aluminum siders roofers

in order to get built quickly and quietly they would hire anyone to do the job you think the average stormtrooper knows how to install a toilet main

all they know is killing in white uniforms

all those innocent contractors brought in to do job are killed casualties of a war they had nothing to do with

alright look you’re roofer some juicy government comes your way you got a wife the two kids in suburbia

this is a government contract with all sort of benefits and along come these left wing militants and blast everything in a three mile radius with their lasers

they did not ask for that they had no personal politics they were just trying to scrape out a living

“Innocent contractors”

Wtf 🤮

In my book it doesn’t matter if you are building or operating the gas chambers.

I think Andor settled this fairly definitively.

I’m a little surprised that this comment has gotten so many upvotes.

Would you apply this same logic to the real world? For example, imagine if a manufacturing facility for Lockheed Martin or General Dynamics was bombed and thousands of working class Americans died. These people are building bombs that are being used in an ongoing genocide.

Would you consider this a heinous terrorist act, or a noble strike in the fight for freedom?
