    Indeed. Leia also kept trying to breathe life into a corrupt, capitalist republic that quickly fell back into fascism once she had “won.” Maybe Leia isn’t really that good.

      In former EU they stopped even pretending during the Yuuzhan War and ultimately formed just a loose oligarchy kept together by military strenght by an imperial remnant warlord. Which did not stopped yet another civil war started by the oh so american freedom loving Corellians.

      That shit do happens in literally all western sci-fi because it have a tendence of just erasing any socialism from existence and thus even with right material conditions they always keep turning in the merry go round of capitalism (looking at Expanse most specifically).
