‘The warship’s commander “is a big ‘Star Wars’ fan’
Lmao the commander is a top tier troll. I mean who wouldn’t love to float a giant grey warship down the Thames blasting the Imperial March??
A German warship blasting the anthem for fictional space Nazis isn’t great optics.
What’s the point of getting out of bed if everything is space nazis and bad optics?
It’s cause you’re not using space lasers.
‘No deeper message,’ navy says
I was just watching a video from Drachinifel on the Royal Navy’s extensive history of trolling other navies and responding to trolling. They are going to do something wacky.
no deeper message
I don’t believe them. there’s a message there and it’s funny as hell.
Wasn’t the Death Star pretty much full of people with a British accent 🤷♂️
And also Nazis. Strange bedfellows and such.
Lmao. That’s funny on multiple levels.
I misread that as “German worship blasts Darth Vader anthem in heart of London,” then realized how similarly spelled warship and worship are.
Whomst among us?

weird how 70 years later german military is glorifying the empire in star wars, which borrowed a lot from nazis but then became its own cultural thing
Borrowed? Heh. Nicked whole-cloth, more like: General Hux, addressing troops arranged in the “Nuremberg” pattern; the battle of Mimban = WWI Western front, in space; stormtroopers in Stirnpanzer; Soontir Fel = Red Baron — to say nothing of Baron Valen Rudor, and Vault Skerris; etc.
Hell, if you’d like a fun rabbit hole, look into the Twi’leks’ Ryloth liberation as French Revolution, OG Sith as ancient Egypt/Aztec civs, Empire expansionism as HRE/Spain/US, etc. 🤓
The man’s not known for ingenuity. Then again, neither is GRRM. 🤷🏽♂️
Nearly all those things you’ve listed are Disney not Lucas?
