I get it, trust me. And thanks. I hope you have a good day, too.
Silent revolution:
Just reforming things until there is nothing left of the empire.
But seriously, would be hilarious If by the time the rebellion gets hot we had already turned the workers, most officers, most soldiers, most corpos being in the hands of their workers (who we turned) and so on.

we just ignored an order from the Emperor and the detection roll was this low? did they think that we were so blatant in our rejection of orders that there was no way we could be a real rebel?
also that disaster roll after a nat 100 on unions, I feel like we accidently started a middle/lower class revolution for working conditions throughout the empire and has gotten so popular that every Moff needs to emulate us a bit or face mass strikes and demonstrations against them

I'd read the fuck out of that omake.
Thrawn is diametrically opposed to our view points and political beliefs. Now the only way, and I mean the only way, we can get Thrawn to actually come to our side, is if Papa Palps finds a way to make his empire not look like a beacon of stability and military dominance.
Remember Kids: Thrawn sees the Empire as a Meatshield for his people.
Constantine might as well call himself the Great because he's literally showing that being hands-off and doing everything Macro level has its benefits.
Also, he's just to damn uninterested in being the usual imperial stooge.
There is a reason you were shoved to Corellia... the worst Mistake of Papa Palps life since being hands-off to deal with sith Bullshit.
... No comment.
... I'm not saying the Unions are Neo Sepretists that hate the Corpos and are now joining the Rebels in Droves...
But a lot more are considering their options.
You mean we aren't already?
It's called: Reality ensures.
Sure the Empire has plenty of impractical shit going on that people can blame... but here is the thing.
Once the problem gets big enough, you either have to deal with it, or kill everyone whos making a fuss about it...
Two guesses on what the empire chose, and the first one doesn't count.
I thought it was pretty obvious in the title...
Numerous posts...
To the character's entire motivation?
I thought I made that pretty clear, but there are people that may want to try that. But they can try... but reality will ensue...
Mostly through Vadar.
Now, as funny as that would be?
Papa Palps won't let you. Especially since he already destroyed the Republic.
And he's fully ready to destroy the Empire with Operation Cinder...
No... Quite the opposite.
There are bigger problems that need to be dealt with at this point in time, where we have just been forgotten about. Vader is a very busy man right now.
Like half the Mid Rim is planning a general strike right now.
The Core is trying to overhaul safety in its factories, spending Trillions of Credits to do so...
And the outer rim is the outer rim... they care not for some dudes entire thing...
No... Not yet at least.
Not yet at least.
Note that trying to oush to make reform is still a good thing. This is because it makes us look like something very important: The reasonable man in the room. Since palpatine will oppose any true reforms long term, by being the person who appears as the reasonable man in the room, we position ourselves to be in the perfect position to make those who otherwise be somewhat imperial-leaning and several true believers when the civil war starts be more willing to side with the rebellion on principle as we can make it seem like Palpatine himself has betrayed the New Order's very ideals.
That much is true, yes. We definitely should continue to attempt reforms.
I am just cautioning People who actually expect this to succeed and truly improve and fix the Empire. Because that simply won't happen for one simple reason:
Palpatine will not allow it.

Yeah...
Especially when the Rumor mill shows you just how bad the Crackdown was...
Tarkin had a field day.

So long as Palpatine remains Emperor, Vader his right hand and Tarkin his left, the Empire cannot be reformed into something worth saving.
We can, however, continue to forward sensible reform and show them all to be violent and evil men the galaxy has no use for.

I would argue the systemic issues that papa Palps has created, once again has made things bad.
At least in any form of the galactic empire
The only thing we can do is minimize the pain that this brutal regime has placed upon the Galaxy.
But even without Vader and Tarkin Palps has elevated lots of people to power that should not be in power

Oh and uh:
I love this line I wrote so much it's going to be a teaser:
"The Galaxy had long been built on the backs of slaves.
Of course to anyone who actually read history and had a brain, it was built on the blood and back of the workers
And for far to long, they had been ignored."

Well if we bumble our way into a communist/workers revolution while we are overthrowing a tyrannical autocracy, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
It really is less of a Communist Song and more of a Workers/Anti-Fascist Song.

Still a workers revolution as well as an Allience to restore the republic could be very fun…
At least in juggling around and making sure they don't kill eachother.
I mean, as you pointed out, Communism doesn't really exist in Star Wars. If anything, I think they and the Rebels would share more views and goals then not.

We'll just have to have fun dismantling the empire then together!
Droids: "You forgetting someone there? What about us? You know,The beings you actively shackle with torture devices as part of routine operation, Actual Slaves being bought and sold, yet possess the ability to think in full just as well as you flesh and blood. The worker is not just flesh, it is not just blood, but positronic circuit as well! "

One morally questionable thing at a time my friend… one thing at a time.
Plus this is post clone wars, people don't like droids all too much.

Non-armed non-soldier droids with the ability to think should probably be able to skirt a fair bit of that though.
I'm a big Droids-Are-People-Too person, but there's a time and a place and neither of those is right now.
Soon, depending on how successful workers' rights stuff goes and how effective they might see droid liberation for their cause (side note, holy cow, any thinking communicating droid with actual intelligence includes a lot of droids and a lot of the power of the galactic economy).

They are a literal majority, if not SUPERMAJORITY of the galactic economy. Its not an accident the galaxy uses restraining bolts: Some of the single worst conflicts in history were galaxy wide droid rebellions.

...I think I have the next lever by which we upend the order of the Galactic Empire. Droid personhood and citizenship.
The best part of being not interested in the success or survival of the Galactic Empire is that we can present and create problems and watch them drive more and more people our way with how the Empire tries to solve them. (The cheapest and most expedient method possible: blaster gas.)
We were an exploding nat 100 on Palpatine's disaster roll.
