What’s your archetype psychoanalysis for someone who thinks the sequel trilogy is extremely apolitical, but that Andor is antifa lmao?

Someone who actually understands how politics works, rather than succumbing to oversimplified good-vs-evil propaganda. I love the politics of Andor for the same reasons you described: it has a strong message about rebelling against fascism, without showing said fascism in the ridiculous cartoonish way that the sequels did. The villains all have three-dimensional, compelling motivations, but that doesn’t mean they’re not evil. It toes the line between “Everyone who disagrees with me is literally Satan” and “Both sides are equally right somehow”, and does so brilliantly.
