Also, you have to be careful with what characters you involve in this plot. Like, Luke is obviously a sympathetic ear, but he still benefits from the system as is. Why doesn't he endeavor to change it? He has enough on his plate, is probably the answer, but what does that say about a character, your hero, when he's selective about what causes and banners he takes up.
There's a LOT to lose, and very little to gain, by wandering down these hyperspace lanes. It pushes the established characters into very unflattering lights or tries to push at the bounds established by canon. Especially in the time where 'all official published media is canon' , the comics are really constrained by what they can tell in this original saga era.
The only era where you could get away with this sort of story with lasting changes to characters and setting, the post sequel trilogy, is the era where the comics and books aren't really allowed to dwell, because Disney is still figuring out their plan of where to go.
The best story we're going to get out of this is someone who has a point, but probably takes it way too far, like a human genocidal Magneto, that the heroes have to stop and then *maybe* admit he had some points, before shuffling off to the next story or canon event.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
