it is really funny Lily to think that this type of writing is an improvement on the original being that it is the introduction of a character who obviously has information from outside the universe, as if you had seen the film previously and making the "smart choices" and knowing exactly what to do. how to act and talk and what the other characters need without the least explanation, Aliana is just incredible (I’ve seen several mary sues in fanfictions, but believe me if you want, they were much more subtle)
and that part in Canto Bight I thought it was a heavy hand in the movie but Lily looks like she's going to sextuple down in the super fair social commentary on captalism with randomly killing rich people for fun (and then wants to be treated with the same respect as a Jedi)
war merchants are not evil, they are neutral. they don’t need to take sides for protection since attacking them is extremely stupid since you depend on them, if they find out they are agents of the Resistance the war is over (unless Rey and Aliana are going to fly through space and blowing up the ships with the Force. That will be it, right?)
To make them morally reprehensible, TLJ had to introduce slave children and animal abuse, which doesn't make sense since:
if these are the richest in the galaxy they should be using droid work as they are more efficient, obedient and legally accepted, better in everything that a normal slave would do, let alone a child
and animals, if someone has already seen how racehorses are treated in great competitions they would be jealous since they are so valuable for investment and money gain they receive all the best, food and medical treatment (you could find cases of bad but these cases are deviants)
rich people know how to make money within the law, just because they have more money doesn’t make them criminal just because there are poor people who need money more than they do,
there are honest among them who don't deserve to be thrown off the balcony by a spiteful activist who finds it fun to kill rich people
