Star Wars fandom hits new depths - a couple of days ago someone posted up ‘Rian Johnson had died’ online - with the text of ‘Rian Johnson has been found dead this morning in his L.A home, details are still arising but suicide has yet to be ruled out’.

I don’t even…this is getting beyond sick. Whatever happened to Don’t give into hate?

As dysfunctional as it gets around here, it’s telling that projects are underway to preserve the theatrical TPM and even the 1997 Special Edition.

The lad who posted about Rian Johnson dying even knocked up an obituary picture with RIP and other text on it to go with his sick claim.
 

I’m somewhat surprised the 2/3 people in here who’ve made inappropriate comments haven’t started their own ‘Continuing with The Toxic Fandom - Our Stand’ type of thread… instead they try and derail and/or negate this thread, or give feeble hypocritical remarks or explanations as to why it’s okay to do - that it’s fun - that’s it’s actually pathetic someone is actually hurt or affected by them (‘victim blaming’?)… almost like they didn’t think much at all.
