Just so you know, Bounding Into Comics is insanely biased towards the Gamergate “white male nerd rage” side of things, with tons of fake stories about Kathleen Kennedy being fired from Lucasfilm and other fanboy wish fulfillment fantasies. So I would take their spin on events with a massive grain of salt.

That’s the awful thing - some can’t dislike TLJ without having to clarify “I’m not one of those types.” TLJ’s reputation has become so entangled in culture war BS by TFM types that it’s hard for critics of the movie to speak out without being compared to that Gamergate-y crowd. Heck, I’ve seen TFM-y things here complaining about “wokeness” and other BS. So I just filter out their stuff and hope mods warn them before things get out of hand, since this is one of the nicer venues to talk about SW. It’s not as poorly moderated as r/StarWars or as saccharine as r/StarWarsCantina and it’s certainly not as trashy as Facebook and Twitter pages.
