andor
Now that I've finished #Andor .... Does anyone who hasn't seen it want to watch it with me so I can pause it repeatedly throughout each episode to kick off individual two hour long discussions on political analysis, history, theory and praxis, and pop culture metaphors with a finger on the pulse of the current cultural zeitgeist?!??!!
“I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest.” #MonMothma

The problem with how good #Andor was is that it makes A New Hope hit a little different, even though it doesn’t mean any harm.
Just…all that pain, grief, slaughter, sacrifice, horror, the grueling, creditless work of it all…then this barely-legal nepobaby who wanted to go to the IMPERIAL ACADEMY five seconds ago, shows up all “Tee hee I have a laser bat!”
“Then all of the sudden this beat up hunk of junk spaceship lands, carrying Princess Leia and the Death Star plans, along with two drug dealers (who immediately start demanding to be paid) and this wide eyed redneck desert twink.”

Excellent season finale #Andor - Nemik's manifesto
"Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. 1/2

The United States wants the unilateral authority to decide who should be able to use certain technologies.
In a new piece, I talk about everything from Iran to Andor to discuss how US tech supremacy gives it power over others that it’s working hard to maintain — to all of our detriment.

Finishing up our season one rewatch of #Andor because -- even though it's always the right time -- this is the perfect day to remember the importance of resistance against a fascist empire.
