[@ID-9999]

It was only the one less experienced officer in charge too who gave the orders

[@krissy5]

@@ID-9999 Yep, he broke under pressure. Up til that point it was a rowdy riot and property damage, the sergeant/older officer was making sure it stayed under control, disabling/rounding up rioters likely for arrest. After the shooting started it became a massacre, the empire won the day but lost ferrix. It went from an economically marginally productive backwater to a likely future rebel hotbed that the empire has to garrison going forward

[@ID-9999]

@krissy5 yea, kinda sad it happened like that

[@Jacksonboyeroutdoors]

I agree

[@MasterGhostf]

Which is fair. Protest and riots in places like Palestine or middle east, violence only happens when explosives or weapons are used. Tyrannical governments rarely want to use deadly force as it can spur uprisings. When the explosive was thrown that changed things from a riot to full blown violence.

[@GH0STCCC-vu5rz]

I love how this actually took stormtroopers seriously. Sure they miss some shots, but they make up for it by hitting a lot of good shots, and I don't expect them to be marksmen like Crosshair or whatever.

I honestly love the way that Stormtrooper punched Wilmon. It may have looked kinda weird coz both the stormtroopers jus slowly walk up to him and Wilmon just stood there but idc. Even the build and how tall those stormtroopers looked compared to Wilmon made them look intimidating. But that Stormtrooper punching him made me take Stormtroopers much more seriously. Well I mean I already took them seriously because of this whole show (Especially the scene when Andor got arrested by that Shore Trooper) but damn. Never saw a Stormtrooper do that before either.

[@Thongger]

[@larsoftheredhotlovers6220]

Helmets will protect you from fatal injury, but the shock wave of an impact often reverberates through the helmet structure. Depending on the material, it will often leave the wearer dazed and confused. For example, say you get hit on the head by a blunt object while wearing a medieval steel helmet. You would be protected from immediate death or severe brain damage but chances are you will have concussion, blurred vision, ringing in your ears and dizziness. If you take time o get the helmet off and sit down, you may recover quickly. The Stormtrooper was rushed down, beaten over the head and continued to be kicked down. He probably ha no idea what was going on and no real way of retaliating through the disorientation.

[@Mothman_Studios]

I figured he was probably still dazed from the explosions

The stormtroopers start shooting random people because their commanding officer, Tigo, tells them to. Keysax, the older guy, still had the situation *mostly* under control until that point; you can see him identify the kid who threw the bomb and order his arrest. If he'd been in overall command, that would probably have been the end of it, but then Captain Tigo pops up and effectively orders a massacre. Officers are so often the weakest link.

[@shadowgearaudio293]

I know the Empire are supposed to be the bad guys. I think what I find really interesting about this situation is if this was real life and I was watching this exact scene from the comfortable spot behind a screen. I would have sided with the Empire in this situation once the IED exploded. Then again attacking what looked to be an unarmed imperial officer didn’t exactly win the rioters any favors from me. Charging the shield wall also wasn’t exactly something I would have approved of. Once the IED exploded, I would have seen the rioters as people who are destroying streets and infrastructure local communities rely on while endangering the people. In that case I would have seen the rioters as enemy combatants in an active war zone and likely give out a similar order. The stormtroopers, army troopers, and the rest of the imperials were basically fighting for self preservation. It’s an interesting observation but I think it has given me insight into why normal people in the Star Wars galaxy would wholeheartedly and unironically support the Empire. Some may even applaud the Empire in this decision which I found rather fascinating. Edit: I feel the need to clarify this because people don’t seem to get it and are really angry. This is looking at it from the perspective of a random imperial citizen living somewhere like the upper levels of Coruscant. Someone who would only have limited information and likely be consuming Imperial Propaganda.

Do you people ever stop bitchint about diversity

[@redman1249]

@@DarthKieduss They care about "diversity". Forced diversity is a marketing gimmick, Andor proves all you need is good storying telling.

you think the empire is racist? I don't understand idk if racism exists in the empire but i'm not super knowledgeable on the lore

[@GreenNinj4]

@ The empire is sexist (against women of all species) and racist (against aliens) If you‘re a human man (skin colour doesnt matter) you‘re fine, but if you arent you can only join the empire if you have connections or are really skilled. Disney ignores this usually though and gives us inaccurate trash like female stormtroopers for diversity sake, so I was surprised that Andor skipped this trend and showed the empire as only men👍🏻

Manipulated the Mimban political factions into warring with each other and then destroying them as well. Genociding the Ghormans. Genociding the Geonosians after using them to design the Death Star. All of this was only what had happened before the events of Andor, btw.

This doesn't feel like Star Wars. It feels like America in 2020. Why would I want to be reminded of the pointless protest that destroyed cities in America?

If a show about a civil uprising against a tyrannical government reminds you of your real life conditions, I'm afraid you have much more pressing issues than the show itself. There's one way out, and it's not in this comment section.

I keep hearing about all of these destroyed cities, yet they're all still standing......

@@MichaelCasanovaMusicwell no shit, a few riots and explosions don’t destroy a city. not even 911 did that
