  • 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

    • Evidently you did, because it's mentioned that she was a member of the Imperial Senate right up till it was dissolved. She participated directly in the government that built a weapon of mass destruction and used it to commit a genocidal act of state terrorism. Thankfully, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, they never invented purity testing so people like you weren't wrenching their spines in an effort to suck their own dicks about it.

      • She was still in the senate when her ship was captured by Vader at the beginning of Star Wars.

        Leia: I'm a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan.

        Vader: You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor.

      • Clearly, the solution is to vote in the Imperial Senate if you want to affect change.

        Unless you're trying to say Kamala Harris is secretly working for Hamas or something?

      • Well you would have to have a spine to know what thats like so I understand why the people bravely tonguing the asshole of the administration lying to us and circumventing Congress to continue arming their pet dictator's ethnic cleansing wouldn't get it

        • Maybe if you plugged away at it for a while you could come up with an even more flaccid and contrived rebuttal.

    • I see that you understand that, much like a vice president, that is something someone with the powers of a princess can do.
