Then please enlighten me on these so called facts, and please also provide the proper references to support these claims.

I do not agree with your interpretation of The Last Jedi, but I can’t do anything about how you choose to see things. I just think it is a very pessimistic view and projects a lot into the story.

My original comment was the same symbolic and moralistic storytelling that is present in The Last Jedi is also present in the other Star Wars movies. You are free to like and dislike whatever you want or interpret things however pessimistically you choose, but to try and boil Star Wars down to the previous movies being simple escapism and devoid of symbolism and moral lessons is just plain incorrect.

You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts. Like it or not, I do not care.
