With all of the above being said, I’d just like to add 3 small caveats, with no aggressive intentions:
-
You can criticize something and appreciate it at the same time; they are not mutually exclusive.
-
If it’s ok to criticize George Lucas, then it’s ok to criticize a fan who has changed George Lucas’s work
-
Fan editors do their work knowing that people will have responses, and if they get offended they are fully capable of speaking up for themselves.
