George Lucas is way more based than most of these liberals that claim to like Star Wars.

He admitted that the Rebel Alliance vs the Empire is an allegory of the Viet Cong vs the U.S. military, and that he himself is a communist sympathizer.

I'm sure that piece of trivia somehow doesn't make the rounds on star wars trivia night.

not-listening is the reaction I would expect from telling people about that fact

nerd I'll have you know it was in fact a card in the 1997 Star Wars Trivial Pursuit Classic Trilogy Collector's Edition

He also mentioned there is much more censorship in American movies vs in soviet cinema and I assume he would know.

I remember reading that too.

He said that he was surprised at the relative lack of regulations in Soviet cinema, especially in regards to violence.

The only thing you couldn't do, was advocate for the overthrow of socialism

I love the libs who laugh at him for that because "USSR SO CENSORED" and ignores what he actualy said
