“There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this: Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrections are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause. Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. And then remember this: The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural.

Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this: Try."

Brilliant speech from Andor

Isn’t that the pedo from Black Mirror?

Can someone here confirm this series is not tainted by leftie wokeism, like most other recent Star Wars garbage?

It's been a while but I don't remember anything close to the usual nonsense these days.

Just really enjoyed it and could draw lots of parallels to the society we live in. Very thought provoking.

Kudos to good writing! Star Wars at its best. I remember that speech well. And the show more generally struck a deep chord with me regarding our current society. The more Orwellian society gets, the more we need these powerful speeches and symbols as reminders of freedom, lest we get caught up in bread and circuses and forget what matters.

Great series and great post. Thank you Alex!

Andor is the only Star Wars content I actually enjoyed in recent memory. Great show with great quotes too.

This exact quote was one of my first Nostr posts 🫡🫂💜

Andor is a Bitcoin Show…

They just don’t know it yet

I’m not sure I’d ever watch these series if it wasn’t for Alex’s post. It’s probably the best the Star Wars world has to offer. Thanks, Alex. 🫡

I I’m just finishing episode 2 of season 1 right now 🥹 There’s absolutely no way I’m not binge-watching both seasons over the next few days. This series just became part of the energetic imprint I want woven into the new #freedomtech organization I’m starting. So glad it came into my field right now — and thanks nostr:nprofile1qqs9336p4f3sctdrtft2wlqaq5upjz9azpgylhfd3dplwf005mfrr9spzamhxue69uhkummnw3ezuendwsh8w6t69e3xj7spz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wct4lwjj 🙏
