That you think people were referring to you on this matter confirms much.
To be fair I feel like the messaging has been so vague I’ve questioned whether or not I was being considered one of the bad eggs…
Tensions are high but I haven’t seen a lot of people disrespected, not going to argue much further than that (as I don’t know all the history and may be speaking out of turn), I already feel like several threads are ironically now being derailed by response to what appeared to me to be just other’s opinions. I expect and hope the dust will settle within the coming weeks of release, until then I hope everyone can still have a good time talking about the movies good or bad through the remainder of their holiday.
Of course the messaging is vague. There’s no more convenient way to wield power than to do it arbitrarily.
Just kidding. The rule is…if someone who liked the film is offended then your opinion is ‘toxic’.
The very use of the term suggests a certain political leaning is required in order to be on the righteous side of this debate.
Strange, because some members who didn’t like the film, or are mixed overall on it, - and not just IX; but TLJ, TFA, and other modern SW content too… have also asked for the repeated negative posting across various threads on here to be stopped or curtailed.
So your statement of ‘The rule is…if someone who liked the film is offended then your opinion is ‘toxic’’ is indeed incorrect.
And that highlights a problem within - ‘the side(s) of the debate’…
There are no sides - just opinions and taking about the films. Everyone is entitled to voice their opinion here - in a civil manner, of course.
Of course, there are those who wish to create sides, bring politics into it, put words into the mouths of others, and willfully take what others have said and twist the context / meaning / application of…
Yet the fact remains people are free to post their genuine opinion and reviews of the films on here - in a civil manner - as has been stated in many threads on the subject before. For some reason you wish overlook, or exclude, this fact.
Maybe just, I don’t know, don’t be a dick?
Dicks show up when there is an over abundance of pussies.
That’s simply just baiting - maybe to the point of trolling. Either way it isn’t civil.
You were told your previous posts of ‘Dicks show up when there is an over abundance of pussies’ and something about ‘offending delicate wallflowers’ and more were deleted - and why; yet here you are posting it again…
It is obvious you are not interested in conversing with fellow members in the threads about the films (which you have not seen) - and would rather insult them or put words into the mouths of others.
Hopefully the New Year will see you return posting in a more civil fashion.
