Leia made ableist remarks about a storm trooper once. Both sides are the same!
Plus, as a member of the Imperial Senate, she’s obviously part of The Swamp that must be drained.
(I also hear she emigrated to Alderaan illegally.)
Also, look at her counsel. My brother’s wife’s hairdresser’s mechanic said that there’s very big questions about where Chewbacca’s from. He hasn’t even released his birth certificate!
Plus, he’s, you know… one of them.
In that case, Princess Vespa would be a better comparison, being Druish.
Yeah, but she doesn’t look Druish though.
She was for Senator Palpatine before she was against him

Why do you support terrorists?
The Empire has a right to defend itself
Those Rebel Terrorists were using human shields
The ones responsible for the destruction of Alderaan were those Rebel Terrorists, we gave a very humane 30 minute evacuation warning after all
The rebels destroyed Alderaan with their own superweapon they had been developing underground. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
OK, the Death Star did fire on Alderaan, but it was a targeted, focused strike that hit a rebel facility which caused their superweapon to explode and destroy the planet, the Empire had no idea that would happen. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
OK, the Death Star did destroy the planet, but the rebels were still developing a superweapon and even more people would’ve died otherwise. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
OK, the rebels weren’t developing a superweapon on Alderaan, but the destruction of the planet were the actions of a rogue moff acting without approval. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
OK, the Emperor’s right hand man was in the room when it was decided, but Emperor Palpatine has invited every surviving Alderaanian to his own private resort world, and they’re also rebuilding with a new colony on Ejolus. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
OK, the colony on Ejolus has been wiped out, but they were harboring rebels. The Imperial Navy is the most moral force in the galaxy.
I know Vader choked the life out of the last person who questioned him, but I haven’t seen Leia do enough challenging media interviews.
Spicy thread and I’m just going to go get my popcorn
No, you must participate! You’re the reason this country is falling apart!!
‘Princess’ establishment chosen Lyin’ Leiyah is clearly just trying to turn the empire back into the corrupt old Republic and force everyone to accept all aliens including the despicable Gran who don’t deserve rights because they don’t look or act like me. I heard she was even there when Alderaan was destroyed and did nothing.
Ho ho!
Hey hey!
What planet did Leia blow up today?
Death Stars don’t kill people. Traitors who won’t give up the location of the secret Rebel base kill people.
Vader’s spokesman said there was a floating planet of trash floating in space called Tatooine
She kissed her brother once and her father is a known criminal, open your eyes sheeple
I must have missed the part of the movie where Leia devotes a significant amount of her planets resources to building the deathstar while her constituents screamed for her to stop
I see that you understand that, much like a vice president, that is something someone with the powers of a princess can do.
Vader didn’t blow up a planet. He didn’t stop it from getting blown up but he was more of an accessory to it.
Trump didn’t stop Jamal Kashoggi from getting murdered with a meat saw, so I guess they’re similar that way.
Was he particularly in a position to stop that?
Stopping him from getting murdered by the Saudis? Maybe.
Done something about it afterward? Definitely.
Yeah, all he did was help Palpatine build the Death Star, and it was Tarkin who actually gave the order. Do these anti-Vader people even understand what his role is as Sith Lord?
These single-issue voters who refuse to vote for Vader just because of the Aderaan issue are just helping Palpatine. Why does everyone suddenly care so much about Alderaan anyway?
Humorless and missing the point deliberately as usual, I see.
Meanwhile in the real world, Trump explains how he regularly phones up Netanyahu to convince him to ditch Biden’s ceasefire plan.
And Biden pretends to be upset about that while overriding congress to send him more weapons, completely unconditionally. Just like how he’s been unconditionally supportive of Israel his entire career.
Don’t confuse your conspiracy theory cope that Biden or Kamala are secretly pro-Palestine, contrary to all their actions and statements, with “the real world.”
At a certain point, arguing that they’re legitimately trying and failing to rein Netanyahu in, when he’s completely dependant on our protection, means arguing that they are so absurdly and comically incompetent that shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the levers of power for fear that they might slip on a banana peel and catch themselves on the button that launches the nukes. They’re not idiots, they’re doing it because this is what they want.
I love how you talk so much about the Democrats as if the Republicans wouldn’t be worse and as if Trump hasn’t admitted to phoning Netanyahu frequently to tell him not to agree to Biden’s ceasefire plan.
My criticism of the Democrats has nothing to do with the idea of the Republicans “not being worse.” I just believe, unlike you, that truth doesn’t stop being true when it’s inconvenient. Party loyalty has rendered you completely incapable of acknowledging reality, whether you can’t see it, or whether you do see it but won’t admit what you see.
I’ll ask again since you refuse to answer: do you think that Biden needs Trump’s approval to stop bypassing Congress to send weapons to Israel?
Biden shits his pants “Why would Trump do this?”
When did you stop hitting your wife?
Are you denying the fact that Biden has bypassed congress to send weapons to Israel? Because if so you are dead wrong.

More POC death star operators!
More female storm troopers!
Did Leia keep claiming she wants the most lethal military in the galaxy too?
She was a leading figure in a paramilitary organisation, both before and after the death of the emperor. So, maybe?
Yeah, you’d think that would be exactly what she wanted.
What do you think the United States is more like? A guerilla insurgency or a miltaristic empire imposing its will on the rest of society?
First one, then the other.
So Leia isn’t a great analog. Maybe a Vader / Palpatine election would be closer to realityI misread that, hold up.
The United States of America spends more money on it’s military than the next 10 countries COMBINED.
The United States has ~800 military bases all around the world in foreign countries.
This doesn’t sound like an empire to you?
Well you’re wrong
Leia was leader of the imperial police?
Y’all can’t distinguish between movies and reality.
So the internet certainly tells me.
What are her policies?
In this analogy, did Princess Leia build the Death Star and blow up Alderaan? Ridiculous levels of whitewashing.
