    The New Republic is basically West Germany/Reconstruction USA, but Adenauer actually tried to send aid to the red front instead of crying about muh Catholicism and then collaborating with the nazis. Like its a fantastic example of libs subverting and diluting revolutionary organizations (mainly due to doylist reasons because communism doesnt exist in Star Wars - fascism does (strange)- the most left political figure is like Padme who is a welfare monarchy lib)

      Glad someone remembers that fact about the NR. A lot of even defenders of new canon stuff and people who are into lore seem to forget that the NR was sanctioning (as in supporting, not putting sanctions against) the Resistance on the down low. Like Resistance opens with NR pilots delivering info from the NR to a drop for the Resistance.
