He told us to "go screw ourselves" (to use your words) long before people started criticizing him. You seem to be under the delusion - although more likely you are spinning the delusion - that fans brought this on ourselves. George Lucas brought this anamosity on himself. His actions and his choices is the source for the criticism; fans such as yourself enable him to hold his stance. This - again - is not Chicken and the Egg. You seem to have problems understanding cause-effect. George buries OT. George gets criticized. Cause. Effect.

Stop spinning this issue around. Stop pretending like you are here to help. Stop lying (as MeBe illustrated beyond doubt with your many contradictory statements). Stop enabling a corporation to mislead, milk and bilk customers and fans at every turn.
