MostlyHarmlessMe watching any new Star Wars: Wait, so this society keeps reverting back to fascism no matter how many times the good guys win? That's ridiculous.
Me in 2023: OH.

joining2therandomutrend@MostlyHarmless not just Star Wars TBH, I think Gundam also same.
WesDym@MostlyHarmless The original Star Wars trilogy was an epic of triumph. Lucas then turned it into a messy and confusing family drama. Disney turned it into a soap opera.
R0ck3tsc13nc3@MostlyHarmless Egypt first really got full democracy, and the first guy that got elected what about 10 years ago? Immediately try to seize permanent power.
And then we have turkey, India, Russia, and even Hungary, reverting to authoritarian rule. Yep democracy is a battle that is fought not just in the streets but in the ballot boxes.

Cifer@MostlyHarmless Yeah, the sequels had two really good points for me:
1) Fascism always tries to come back, likely in the form of literal nazi cosplayers longing for the good old times while negging the women they're "owed".
2) You can be the objectively greatest hero and still break. And you can be utterly broken and still heal.

@MostlyHarmless yep I've been rewatching the old Star wars and getting that same impression, my goodness. And the bad guy was actually having his empire battle the rebels just to create the power vacuum that he would fill
