    What boiled down to was Rosemary was a woman who wouldn’t fall in line. From what I remember reading she was outspoken and didn’t want to conform to the role her family wanted. So, they started saying she was depressed and had her lobotomized and institutionalized to keep her from being in the public. It’s a very sad story.

    Imagine how many civilians were on the Death Star. Do you really think the maintenance personnel were Stormtroopers? Or the accountants who had to figure out how many credits the private contractors needed to receive? The rebels killed more innocent people than the empire did. Sure, the empire blew up a planet, but the untold amount of damage that the rebels caused to people who were just doing what they could to make a living.

    Look what happened after Palpatine was removed. Slavery became more rampant, the rich began controlling more planets, and there was no government to fill the void that was left. The empire held everything together, they got rid of those hypocrites on Coruscant, and brought about a cohesive government that focused on bringing together all planets and putting an end to the trade wars. To sum up: the empire did nothing wrong.












  • But that would mean questioning the authority of the government and providing verifiable facts. The regime we currently have doesn’t want the betterment of society. They want mindless puppets who will go along with whatever is presented. Historically, people who question authoritative policies are labeled as traitors and enemies of the state, and are silenced so that the poison they spout can’t spread. Fact-checking is now seen as personal attacks and are met with imprisonment and are downplayed, if covered at all.
