You mean through the events of Rogue One? I'm not understanding how else Andor and the party overthrew the empire otherwise.

    Well, yeah sure. I guess in the end the space wizards did the final lifting, but Luke would never have gotten near the Death Star without the work of the vanguard party.

    I see what you're saying, but if the entire lynchpin of the vanguard's success is that the space wizards win in the end — what message is really being sent there, ultimately?

    Yeah, unfortunately the rest of the series does undermine Andor's message. I do concede that point. And honestly, even if in an alternate reality the rest of the series was being made now by Andor's creators, there's no way that they would finish it without undermining that message, because it is made by capitalists with capitalist ideology.
