yeah everyone keeps telling me “Star Wars is a Vietnam allegory” and it’s insane. Have you seen a star war? Do you know what Vietnam is? Do you know what an allegory is

  Everyone wants to make it a Vietnam allegory, when it’s a space western. Broad plot line is Seven Samurai of Magnificent Seven. Bad guys coming to destroy your town, this plucky band of swordsmen/gunfighters/space heroes will save you!!!

if you can explain how it’s a “Vietnam allegory” other than there being a rebellion of an occupied population and some fighting, in one movie, taking place around trees, I’ll take it seriously

So you're just an idiot who picks and chooses what he wants to believe?
