Wow they are really missing the point. I was always a big guy (defensive lineman in high school) so I was never physically bullied but got teased for being into Star Wars, Comic Books, sci-fi, gaming, or anything geeky or nerdy. I really miss when it was a niche thing. You had normies who would go see Star Wars but I would bring Heir to the Empire or the OT novelizations to school to read. Anyway the worst thing to happen was for this stuff to become trendy. I know there are fans of sequels but I have trouble believing they were ever Star Wars fans instead of activists or people who enjoy tearing down what others built
I had a friend who made fun of me for being into the OG trilogy, years later after we lost touch, he became woke and suddenly acted like the biggest Star Wars fan ever when the sequel trilogy came out.
Its not about the movies, they just like winning the culture war. I remember when Last Jedi came out, and a bunch of SJWs were saying stuff like "the old movies sucked too! Luke Skywalker was also a Mary Sue!" which to me is them admitting that they never really cared, they just enjoy dominating and ruining everything.
Bingo
