This shouldn't be a hot take but if I replace the word "zionist" with "Jew" in you post, and it now looks like an excerpt from Mein Kampf, I don't think you can call yourself left wing anymore.

you want to analyze a cartoon that is something children can watch? ok here's the first and most important lesson ever.
have you ever heard of "suspension of disbelief?"
ok. next step. do you know what an unreliable narrator is and can you separate the character's perspective and opinions from the writers? because i promise you that the beliefs of the main character do not always reflect the writers and the point of analyzing media is to dissect that.

I get that they were probably trying to go for some kind of girl power thing, but "It's a shame you're not a woman anymore" just makes me feel like I'm watching the Doctor experience a microaggression. He does not control the speed at which the gender changes?? Leave them alone.

Thinking again about the earlier concept of Jyn = Sergeant Erso not as some cobbled-together offscreen retcon to justify toy names, but Jyn as an actual sergeant with the Rebellion who seethes with frustration over the dithering of the leadership and is pushing for direct action.
I mean, I love RO as is! I love Jyn and her arc, etc. But I also really like that concept of Jyn and the idea of a Jyn and Cassian who collide less over being in the Rebellion itself and more about what that should look like and involve.
