The rebellion was the Vietnamese. It was an allegory. You’ve been in the empire the whole time.
Found the tankie!
The fuck you on about, that is literally the allegory said by George Lucas himself https://www.amc.com/blogs/george-lucas-reveals-how-star-wars-was-influenced-by-the-vietnam-war--1005548
I know, it’s just a lot of tankies go “erm, ackchually, the US was always fascistic by Stalin’s definition of fascism”.
Fascism is capitalism in crisis, when it needs to use force to maintain the contradictions.
The US has always been imperialist and neoliberal, but the Fascism has only been really kicking into gear lately.
