Well that just makes me want to join the us navy and I’m not even American
Yeah, it does look cool, but I’m afraid of getting my hand chopped off.
Yes, it would be much harder for you to keep making propaganda.
Unfortunately most of the rest of the world doesn’t give a shit, or swallow up the American propaganda that what Ansar Allah are doing is just random acts of terrorism.
I don’t get it… than again, I’m not from the US.
Nah, I’m Canadian.
I know that the HCMS Vancouver snuck into visual range of a US carrier group before being told to screw off.
I mean, Star Wars was meant to be a direct allegory for the War in Vietnam so….
Didn’t actually know that.
Yeah, the rebels are supposed to be the Viet Cong… There is also a whole shitload of world war II imagery yeah
Eh, the source for much of the pacing and plot arcs is taken directly from Akira Kurosawa’s “Hidden Fortress” and that predates the Vietnam War by quite a bit. But sure, everything made at the time was of course influenced by the Vietnam War. But the Rebels being Viet Cong is a reach of galactic proportions.
