    This seems unfair to Mon Mothma because though she is kind of a shit lib she is also sending large amounts of money to the space Viet Cong

      She's sending money down a well. She didn't really know where it was going. She just assumed it was to a generic "good cause".

          I forget at what point she's made aware, but I believe she was as shocked by the news as anyone. Even raced to Skatsgard's shop to demand he admit responsibility.

              She is, its really odd how much space they give her in the show when the culmination of her arc is just potentially throwing her husband under the bus.

                Fingers crossed that Fascist piece of shit gets to have a little one on one time with Saw Gerrera.

                I'll be real by the end I was so tired of her segments. They just didn't feel thematically relevant beyond the "she is in a lavish prison" contrast. If we needed more Coruscant I would rather have had more scenes with Loni

                  Or with Leia! It was very cool seeing her at all as a character, and it would be much cooler to see how she got radicalized to the rebellion as well.

            She didn't do that, but she was shocked and was like "how could you do that, people are going to suffer for this" and he's like "this was always going to happen and besides maybe this will get people to rise up". Essentially Luthen is an accellerationist.
