They weren't space pirates. They were blowing up Imperial munitions convoys. They weren't stealing the munitions, they were just blowing them up so the Empire wouldn't have them.

They are billed as loving Pirates on the subtitles and every synopsis out there refers to them as pirates:

But they don't steal anything. They just blow up the Imperial munitions. And the presence of exploded Imperial trucks establishes that that is something they do regularly. It's the only thing the episode established that they do, they blow up Imperial convoys.

Maybe they're called Space Pirates because that's their cool gang name, The Space Pirates, but they do not engage in any piracy that we see

Piracy does not necessarily mean "get everything intact", they could be salvaging the remaining equipment or think that it is too dangerous to ride the transports and instead force the base for protection money.

Edit: If we are to theorycraft until it fits our narrative, that is.

It depends on how much you like Wars in Stars. If you are into those children's movies and cannot get enough despite 30 years worth of spin-offs, merchandise, and video games, power through. The second season flounders a bit and might make you groan but still a good watch that doesn't require too long of a time commitment.

My hot take: if it weren't for those darned imperials then those poor aliens (who were forced into piracy in order to protect their natural resources) would have been free to....wait what the.... isn't this the baby Yoda show? Don't think anyone needs to die on that hill.

Did anyone else turn off The Boys because it was trying to be as unpleasant as possible with no likeable characters? poo poo was just too real for a supes show for me, it made me actively sadder and a bit disturbed.

The show is downright cheery compared to the original comics.

I think after five episodes then you probably know if you like it or you don't really.

Was gonna post this. Garth Ennis (creator of the comic) is a massive super-hero cynic/hater and boy o boy he loves to make readers uncomfortable on the premise of "lmao if you think superheroes would give an ounce of gently caress about normal humans or show restraint to reduce collateral".

Of course I should've expected Bill Burr fans to be touchy about being called racist but it's too late now.

Oh yes, I've read a ton of Ennis, just not The Boys. I guess I'm more sensitive to this now. Ennis is awesome but not for me anymore :(

Reminds me a bit of Supergods by Morrison, I read that like 5 years ago and I think about it.

Bill Burr is one of those guys who is so close to being extremely great and likable but he has like, two or three opinions on women or racial things that are really hard to reconcile or listen to him without going “yeah that was funny but he still said ____”
