Show Off Your Rebellion Pride with These Minimalist Star Wars Pins
By Buckie Wells
Thanks to these Rogue One minimalist pins, we can now remind everyone that rebellions are built on hope and show off our defiance with style!
Rogue One‘s timing couldn’t have been any better. Lucasfilm released the movie just before the social and political landscape of America shifted entirely. And like Princess Leia, Jyn Erso and the Rogue One team provided everyone with a symbol of hope. Of course, Rogue One cut her “I rebel” line from the movie. But that doesn’t change how iconic the line remains. Or how important and relelvant it is now.
As a Star Wars enthusiast myself, I’m not short of Star Wars tattoos, including the Rebellion starbird on my arm. But not everyone’s pro-tattoo, which is totally okay.
Thankfully, Fashionably Geek has another alternative:
These Star Wars minimalist pins retail for only $8 and go with anything. Because they’re minimalist and not flashy, you can put it anywhere in silent protest. In addition to the call of solidarity with the oppressed, the pins also includes Chirrut Imwe’s now famous lines, “I am one with the Force. The Force is with me.” Obviously, this is Star Wars speak for “I can do this.”
Unfortunately, we’re going to need all the back up we can get as the true Rebellion forms in protest of Trump… or anything you disagree with, I suppose. The entire Star Wars saga exemplifies all the themes we’re seeing today. More importantly, it reminds us to have hope even in the darkest of times.
And what better way to remember to do that than with these pins!
Now, they’re actually sold on Etsy by LanternPins, so head over there if you’re interesting joining the Rebellion.
