    No, it is not “just opinions” when you want to terrorise and murder other people simply for having been born.

    I can’t seem to explain this to people. “Oh just respect that he has a different political opinion”

    His political opinion is branding anyone who disagrees with him about whether or not we should kill all LGBT people (He thinks we should, I happen to believe that such an action isn’t very cash money though being a transwoman I may be biased) a secret pedophile.













  • My little sister hates Star Wars simply because back when she was in high school, that’s all the other kids talked about. She told me how tired she was of hearing about people shipping Kylo Ren and Rey, so much so that she plays the Sims and outright REFUSES to get the Star Wars DLC for it because she doesn’t wanna remember how toxic people were to her for not liking Star Wars.

    Even though I love Star Wars (May the 4th be with you) I can weirdly relate, because when Andor dropped and my initial thoughts were “Slow, boring, and doesn’t feel like Star Wars.” and the Heist arc only CEMENTED this for me. (God I couldn’t tell you how much I wanted those characters to die, and how little I felt when they finally did, hours of build-up and the only thing I learned about them is that they don’t think Andor’s one of the cool kids, and one of them wrote a book! Now they’re all dead, don’t I feel like my investment was worth it?)… My Reddit inbox (remember before they went on a banning spree?) was flooded with people telling me how stupid I was for “Not getting it!”, and how simple people like me “Should stick to pew pew stuff like Clone Wars”

    It made me want to rewatch Rogue One, not because of “Andor Hype”, but because I’d get to see the show’s namesake die. Legitimately I’d fire up Lego Star Wars and just have player 1 be Darth Maul, player 2 be Cassian Andor, and just killed Andor over and over again, that’s how mad I was getting at Andor fanboys and their constant barrages of insults to anyone with ANY criticism of the show. It legitimately got so bad that I just didn’t wanna watch Star Wars anymore.

    I liked what little I saw of The Acolyte, but, sadly these Disney shows have been tainted for me by a combination of Boba Fett being THAT BAD and the toxicity of the Andor crowd.

    I’m sorry Boba Fett was TERRIBLE, I just don’t understand why they went with a script where Boba Fett acts like he has no idea how Jabba’s operation worked despite being one of his right hand men. Did the writer just never see Return of the Jedi? I realize the only line of dialogue Boba Fett’s ever really said i anything ever is “He’s no good to me dead!”, but come on now. You just can’t give me a fish out of water story when the character in question is a shark in familiar oceans.

    I realize that Star Wars has always been of questionable quality and has been divisive every since Empire Strikes Back had half of people going “What a great twist I was absolutely floored and on the edge of my seat since we got to Cloud City!” and the other half going “Darth Vader and Anakin Skywalker are the same person? Bullshit, what’s next, Luke and Leia are twins!?!”, so much so that the real Star Wars is the friends we made along the way, but…

    I’m not making friends along the way anymore, and that’s just depressing.
