I don’t understand this criticism. Why would people not know who the Senator who took control of the Republic as a dictator and ruled it as a fascist Empire for decades was? What evidence is there to suggest people wouldn’t know who he is?

And the really interesting thing is no one cares - the people still loyal to the Empire and its ideology are apparently just fine with the fact that the formation of the Empire was based on a giant con job

which it probably would have to be, if the Republic wanted credibility. the former rebellion would have a vested interest in making the circumstances of the empire clear, especially in the context of Luke reviving the discredited Jedi

And in the context of him using it in that line to Rey it makes extra sense - it's his lesson about how "the legacy of the Jedi is hubris, folly and failure" It's hard to fail worse than to fight a whole damn war directly taking orders from the Sith Lord you're hunting

Curious what the in-universe explanation for that would be. Yoda, Bail, or Obi-wan write it up and store it in R2's memory banks or what?

My headcanon is Luke himself did the digging, or at least was the first one to put together the pieces that other people did the digging for
