Spoilers Andor - Season 2

Luthen is the cold operative the Rebels needed in order to get a future where such people were no longer necessary. I get why some fans think he's too brutal and unforgiving, but the Rebellion was teetering on a tightrope where it could have gone either way and all depending on whether or not the secret Imperial superweapon could be stopped.

In real life societies tolerate even worse to get to noble ends.

A comment on a Luthen video on YouTube hits hard and I can't say I really disagree with it.

"Thinking about it, Luthen is the perfect adversary for Sidious, two masterminds, both cunning, both manipulative, both hiding for years under the noses of their enemies and both willing to sacrifice anyone to get what they want, the only thing that seperates them: a desire for control and a desire for freedom."

The other thing that separates them is that Luthen didn't shoot himself in the face with lighting twice.

Talk about not learning from your mistakes.
