I was going to check out that video, but I went to that guy’s channel and…

I seriously don’t understand what about the prequels or George Lucas attracts the minds of terrible people like this. And not just that, but also the fandom menace people/far right portion of the fan-base that seems to love the prequels. Those movies are actively against everything these people crave, as is Lucas, it’s just crazy to me. And then they just shit on the worst aspect of the sequels, with slurs and offenses to both cast and crew. Kelly and Daisy had to delete their social media accounts for fuck’s sake, this is insane to me, truly. I just don’t get it. Same people that go “Star Wars is political now! Get it off my movies!” …buddy, you seem to not have understood a single thing about Lucas’ 6 if that’s how you feel…

I can’t speak for his other videos, and I disagree with him on a lot of things, but Rick Worley is definitely not a harasser or hateful person. I don’t see what any of his content has to do with bullying actors or political extremism. He’s definitely not that kind of guy. And I think you’re jumping to the conclusion that he’s a terrible person awfully quickly.

Also, I’d rather we didn’t turn this into a political argument or start conflating being a prequel fan with being far right. I know you’re fed up, but you’re making an enormous over-generalization. And I’d rather stay on-topic.
