I just have trouble understanding you in general on this topic. Again you’re back to saying that if the villain is redeemed, suddenly that becomes the “central” and “primary” story being told. Again you seem to think the message they’re trying to send is that Kylo Ren is a Nazi. You come up with every possible explanation for why a bad guy shouldn’t live, regardless of whether the implications make sense for the style of story that Star Wars actually is. You could easily apply the same sort of interrogation for plenty of other aspects of the SW universe. It’s the same sort of thing as that argument in Clerks about killing innocent people by blowing up the Death Star. It’s irrelevant to the story as is being told. Star Wars shouldn’t be monolithic, but at some point you have to accept that you’re basically just asking it to be a different kind of thing entirely. Go watch Star Trek or something instead.
