    I wouldn’t call partisans spies, but I get your meaning. Yeah, I’m sure it does take a lot from those. It is a smart show with a crew who seems to know where to draw influences from, and does so broadly. I can’t say the same for any other modern Star Wars sadly.

      Yes it’s complicated and all a question of point of view calling someone a spy, partisan, terrorist, freedom fighter.

      But in the end it’s spycraft involving locals vs. some powerful oppressive State. Often involving another sympathic State supporting the partisans using straight-up spies.
