If the New Republic is truly the wrong side, it would be for some reason they don't even know. From what we've heard from Kimball so far, it's obvious to me that Kimball truly believes in what she's doing (also, if she was lying that makes her a lying bitch - and I don't know about you but I'm tired of bitchy female characters. But, I believe Kimball and don't think Miles is gonna do a 180 with her character).

I also don't believe Carolina is truly working for the Feds. Not unless there IS some other reason they don't even know. In any case, she hasn't betrayed the Reds and Blues. Just seems like a stupid plot twist with the only reason being a way to get her to fight them.

However, Miles seems to have given the story to us surpisingly straight - there's an evil empire opressing the common folk who got pissed off and made their own rebellion. There doesn't seem to be much more to it than that. I don't think "which side is the RIGHT side" is an issue, really. Feds are bad, Republic is good. Carolina broke into the Feds and is still gonna try and help them, somehow.

However, a twist to all of this would still be nice - that way it's not just Star wars again.
