I wasn't talking about George Lucas' Star Wars, that was a mythology. I was talking about Disney's Star Wars, which is propaganda not mythology. What you are describing is people being unknowingly influenced by propaganda.
My point is the same. Disney SW fulfills an emotional-moral vacuum. It defines good and bad guys, and whose a hero, a traitor, a coward-especially shows like Andor which focus on courageous revolutionaries juxtaposed to cowardly liberals.

I suspect it’s also just pop culture narrative replacing the Bible/christianity as moral frameworks. “Dumbledore’s army”-millennials grew up reading Harry Potter, and they saw themselves as fighting Voldemort.

Conservatives often make fun of this, but they fail to understand it.

That being-fictional narratives are far more powerful at inspiring people and inculcating moral values than bland lectures or “ackshually X”.
 
I personally want Gavin Newsom and the entire Democrat establishment arrested and tried for treason now.

This is the party that has no problem with innocent civilians getting killed in order for them to keep themselves in power. This is what they want.

If this is what they want, Trump should arrest these politicians, try them and ship them to gitmo.
