Just because you are for it does not mean it's good for Star Wars. It did just fine without and it was barely present. There was a a CW episode and that was it.Yukaphile wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 9:18 am Social class? What do you mean? Because I do think this is something even WorldofGeekdom covered. But you know, I'm not against addressing societal inequality when the rich are just getting greedier and hoarding even more resources that could be better put to good use elsewhere. It's why right-wingers wanna label people who lean even slightly left as Communists, even those who wanna reform capitalism. It's what McCarthy did and the attitude is still around today, and a convenient way to spread terror to get people to support your unjust policies by pointing to the real world atrocities of another government and accuse your own citizens of trying to perpetuate that.
I made it clear this was not business as usual. This is new and worse.Meushell wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 10:39 amI posted about fans getting rude with each other. You quoted me, and talked about Disney. How else am I supposed to interpret that? It certainly comes off as, “Well, this is how is it.” Otherwise, why are you replying to me about Disney? Why are you now replying to me about Disney vs. Lucas when that has nothing to do with what I said in the first place.Slash Gallagher wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 7:34 am Where did i say zspeak fro all fans?
Lucas was incompetent but people were more or less fine with the video games that came out before Disney. It's not true that everything coming out of SW gets TLJ l;evel long term backlash.
Personally, I like Jar Jar. He was over the top in his first movie, but he was handled well later in the other movies and in The Clone Wars.Slash Gallagher wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 7:25 pmI made it clear this was not business as usual.

Not everyone regognizes the IRL premise also it's not like even leftists feel very uplifted by the IRL leftist organizations they have to deal with.
Last time i checked most libertarians were not endorsing the Mafia or Yakuza.
