Saw's partisans are mention of doing big terror attacks in the books and other media but i think if they show it to libs, they will just try to seperate them from the whole rebel alliance as some unrelated extremists

Saw isnt really ideologically aligned to the left, just very heavily coded. There isnt an equivalent for communism in star wars, unlike the various flavours of fascism.

And they coat it in a "that is kinda bad sweaty nerd " kind of way (looking at you Star Wars Rebels). Saw was 100% right

Yeah, Saw is almost always portrayed as the wrong way to run a rebellion, and they like to have him kick a metaphorical puppy just to drive that point home.

But Saw doesn't have Jedi. He can't manipulate the threads of fate ⸻ he has to make difficult moral choices that people like Ezra don't.

kick a metaphorical puppy

Like the cutesy Geonosian holding onto a baby that he threatens to kill lmao. Look at this fucking Glup Shitto
