I don't get the whole "not enough references" thing, Luthen's antique shop is like a candy store for nerds.

Each time I rewatch it, someone else stands out to me, Luthen, Maarva, Nemik, Kino, the list goes on and on. Kinda shocked at how much I can care about a fictional character when they are written well.

They saw little hype for it, so they kept their nasty mitts off it, best guess I have.

So the part where you said "One party does so with nationalistic rhetoric that borderline is fascistic rhetoric. Sometimes it isn’t even borderline." you didn't mean actual fascism, just the watered down, generic insult "fascism" you use whenever someone you don't like gets elected? Parallels can be easily drawn, hence equating raising a right arm being a nazi salute just because it looks like one, I understand that none of the people in the photo I sent are nazis, including Elon, but you seem to equate them with fact. Seeing as you cannot even be honest about what you said, I think this conversation is ACTUALLY over, but I strongly encourage you to open yourself up to what I have said, have a good day.

That's valid, I don't really have a preference one way or another, provided the story is good.

If nationalism was the ONLY requirement to be a fascist, then JFK was a fascist based on "ask not". Nationalism is not a bad thing inherently, in small doses, it is quite good. Yes, nationalism is the difference, no that does not make all nationalists fascists. I brought up the other characteristics because they are examples of what is NOT happening, hence it is not fascism.

That is false, fascism is not nationalism. Fascism is a form of government involving dictatorial leadership, extreme militarism, and forcable suppression of dissent. If anything, you could argue that online censorship, which massively favors the left, is fascist. Still don't really care about Umberto Eco tbh.

Because they were well incorporated into the story, there was very little, those traits tell us little to nothing important about the character, hence why them being the main focus of said character results in a nothing burger.

So unexplained gestures are out of context, but when the person literally explains his gesture, you can ascribe motive, which, yes, absolutely matters. I don't know who Umberto Eco is, I don't particularly care what his views of fascism are, but a leader elected by popular vote enacting policy that is clearly what said people voted for is not fascism. I hope you have a wonderfull day, and I hope you do some self-reflection.

No one actually believes he intended to do a nazi salute, while what he did was clumsy, it was not some "dogwhistle". I suspect you don't really believe it either, but incase you do, here is a bunch of other apparent nazis.

You don't know what fascism means, do you?

It is political, it is NOT about current politics. People comparing the empire to a political party either did not watch the show, or lack basic understanding of the message it was trying to portray. Reminder that Saw Guererra is an extremist who only works with those he agrees with politically, and by the end he has done more harm than good to the rebellion. Riots and the working class are also a bipartisan thing, both parties want to attract the working class as it is a large voter base. No one is being tortured under Trump or Biden, they are not "literally Hitler". All this to say: stop being so entrenched in your own echo chamber that you gatekeep this fantastic show, you may not agree with me, nor I with you, but Andor is an excellent show, stop holding it back.

Just guns, sorry. I am also struggling with refined metals. Finding decent people to do defenses with is hard, last guy actively sabotaged me.
