I am so glad modern Gundam has moved beyond UNDERSTANDING.

Critical support for the Dawn of Fold in their efforts to resist Spacian oppression.

(Shaddiq being a closet Maoist was a twist I wasn't expecting.)

    at the very least dawn of fold is being treated with respect and sympathy. getting an entire episode where you root for them with no real caveats is more than most antagonistic gundam factions get

      To be fair most antagonist factions in Gundam are unequivocal Nazi's sooo....

        the fact that we get this whole episode still seems like a really good sign, since it seems like guel was at least a little convinced they weren't too bad despite his treatment
