This post contains spoilers for "Andor".

Andor's latest season steadily gaining intensity, with the first six episodes already laid a solid foundation for the inevitable. It is certainly not easy to maintain tension when the end of the bow is a previous conclusion, which is very case with Cassian (Diego Luna), who dies a martyr at Rogue One. Although Cassian's fate is written in stone, we still take deep care of his evolution ethics in "Andor" and how he will arrive in his predetermined future. In addition, Andor has never moved away from visceral discomfort to be part of the rebel cause, coming with his own set of moral puzzles that require a constant and incessant sacrifice. As a result, the rebellion means something different for everyone, even if the ultimate goal is to overthrow the empire for good.

Although Cassian and Luten (Stellan Scarsgard) are still aligned, their repeated clashes make these ideological differences very clear. In episodes 4-6, We see Luten buttons pushing Cassian after he returned from Gomann's negotiationsvisibly upset by the impulsivity of the local resistance group. While Cassian (properly) the measure that the Gormian front is too impatient/impatient for his own good, Luten wants to use this despair as a shiny lighthouse for the uprising. He is aware of the risks set, along with deaths waiting to occur, but is still ready to pay the price. Conversely, Cassian cannot make peace with this attitude, because he still wants to keep his humanity, at least to those on the same side as it.

Then, there are such like ERERA (Forrest Whitaker) and Mont Motma (Eveniv O'Rili), who fight completely different battles for the same cause. We see that Erera has doubled his extremist beliefs, while Motma feels more stiff for her public neutrality as a member of the Senate. These extreme ends are considering the rebel cause as a complex, developing organism in Andor, which must be Morph until it is strong (and unified) enough to swallow fascist superstar.

In episode 5, Luten and Claya (Elizabeth Dulau) have been arguing after realizing that one of their errors antiquities will be part of the paranoid Davo Sculdun (Richard Dylan). "I can't follow it anymore," he complains Luten, referring to the endless influx of lies and false information that the imperials fed to mask the gesture aspects of the rebel cause. Although Kleyya later manages to regain the mistake in ordinary view, it is a type of risk that Luten is not ready to take at such a critical moment. Although we are not yet private for Luten's past, we know that he has already set fire to his decency and has adopted his enemy's tactics to level the playing field. Playing such a set, a dirty game comes with consequences, and Luten is well aware that he must act quickly before things reach a point without returning.

This, in part, explains why it is so eager to take a cube to Gurman, as it is an opportunity for once-in-life to gather more allies in the rebel cause, no matter how bloody is. When Cassian expresses concern about Gurman's flames, the loutus simply reasons that he "burns very light", solidifying as a new border against the empire. Although we have yet to witness the massacre in Gurman, we know it is An inevitable tragedy that ends with a change in the insurgency trajectory For the coming years.

Speaking of Gurman, the local resistance group is in a complicated place right now. On the one hand, they are impulsive for a reason, as it is really impossible to take measured steps when your world breaks down. In addition, the Gomannans already cover the burden of the historical tragedy that occurred 16 years ago, and are rightly on the edge due to the growing state of the empire above the planet. But at the same time, they are a rash, putting their faith in the likes of Cyril (Kyle Soller), who is a pion isb set on Gurman to ensure that the resistance is doing the wrong thing.

This happens in the brightest way when they are alone (Abraham Wapler) Shoot shoots (Varada stu), leaving Vel (Hay Marsay) destroyed. Although Sam's wrong steps are rooted in inexperience, he costs the life of the rebel hero who had so much to offer the world except her courage.

While rebels like Cassian and Luten are still able to work together despite their differences, some perspectives are too extreme to be part of an organized rebellion. Premier Example is Erierera, which calls Wilmon (Muhanad Bahayer) to breathe in the ryved fuel ridoniumas he compares it to the incessant expression of freedom and resistance in a crazy world. As the history of "Starwells" dictates, ERera's more extremist views will eventually clash with the fully formed rebel alliance soon, forcing the Alliance's High Command to officially censor and cut off all ties with partisans.

Andor does not defend or demonize ERera's way, but simply puts it in context. He is a child of quarrels and exploitation, forever deceived by the brutality of the enemy, who do not hesitate to adopt a killed worldview. When one is shaped by such sadness and turmoil, is it not understandable for them to always be on guard, forever worried about betrayal? It's not a surprise that Gereera pours its bitterness/vitriol in extremist methods To prevent the empire, which is also violently collided with the efforts of the rebel alliance to organize the cause under a banner. "Aren't you tired of fighting people who agree with you?" Luten asks Guerrera in Season 1, but the second rushes to point out that fractionalism is a natural by -product of conflict, where the ends justify the funds (even the most extreme assets) when the goal is to fight fascism.

Then we have those who facilitate these struggles through means, influence and institutional government, such as Mont Motma, which is currently too tied to her position to fight back. Although Motma is not on the forefront, it had to lead a suffocating double life to ensure that any rebel effort - from Aldani to Javin IV and beyond - is enabled. However, it has so far been removed from the ethical ruthlessness of all that has been an act of murder to protect the cause, it shakes something in it. Although Motma has yet to make true public faithfulness, its transition to a full -fledged rebel leader is just a matter of time.

While our rebels in Andor may disagree with the key topics, they must come together to fight the empire as a united front, or as united as they can. After all, when the weapon of mass destruction as the death Starval is onoms over the fate of the galaxy, these ideological extremes are reduced to nothing but minor differences.

New episodes at Andor's premiere on Tuesday at 9pm Disney+est.
