Yeah... Except Leia has been working with the resistance since very young age, against the Galactic Empire. Not to say Luke's got it easy but Leia has had some hard and dangerous life while Luke has been chilling farmer life
This was the biggest failing of Obi-wan Kenobi (the series) to me. They tried to make it a Leia story at the same time and neither character got the focus they needed. They should have been two separate series.
The kenobi series broke the lore. So basically, it doesn't exist in Star Wars canon.
Leia gets kidnapped and Kenobi, her father a public figure doesnt make it known, and then Kenobi instantly comes to her rescue. Cool... Leai has ties to Kenobi. Surely Darth Vader wont persue that to kill Kenobi again or explore that further...
Are we ever giving any indication that being a moisture Farmers all that hard? Other than the fact that they have slaves, I'm sorry droids, to do most of the hard work for them what do they actually do? I mean harvesting moisture is about setting up an apparatus and just letting it pull moisture from the air right? He maintain the machines is that right?
Well, it's always easy to do a little of something. When you are producing as an actual job, then that's entirely different. Scale is a problem in it of itself. "Just maintaining" machines is actually a lot of work.
They didn't even flip a coin, Bail Organa was all "my wife and I always wanted a daughter" and wisked Leia away to Alderaan and they stuck Luke with the son of a slave owner who talked shit about Luke's dad for Luke's entire life. Owen didn't even know that Anakin became Vader he was trying to make Luke feel bad enough to stay in the shitty circumstances he lived in.
Would Luke be the tough one and Leia the whiney one? Because if they still had their original personalities, I wonder if a non-jedi trained Luke would have been able to resist the torture to find the location of the rebel base like Leia did.
Somehow the guy who grew up in a desert working on a farm in an environment meant for Fremen whined more than his twin sister who had a princess title. Mean it's worth a bit of bitching afterwards when you get some perspective but get a bit of resilience from your upbringing.
