Is there anyone actually thinking Andor is based on trump?
Trump getting elected back in 2016 seems to have completely broken lib's brains. They see Trump everywhere, in every shadow.
They use him as a shield, by design of their own making, to abondon social and more importantly economic reforms that might slight their major bribers.
See dems prop up police state - like actual CIA, MIC, FBI candidates while squashing soc dems in primaries, and even generals like Biden did in Michigan, then punch left crying about purity tests and Trump. Then spend their time giving concessions to Republicans and fascists.
Only when out ofnpower like now, do they ever feign leftist legislation and performative "marches" like they are the next MLK - mocking his memory and the memory of every other social and economic mover they kneecaped and murdered.
What's actually funny about this is that those guys are stated to be "neo-republicans" elsewhere in the series, who are one of the more moderate/liberal Rebel factions.
