@fishdude100: Did you stand up to people who were doxxing and harassing others, or did you try to minimize those actions because you shared an opinion with the people who carried them out? As someone who grew up loving Star Wars, the entire fandom is pretty much toxic for me now. Whatever percentage of it were legitimately racist and misogynist were able to hijack the entire narrative and force the studio to make creative changes, and the ones who weren't at best sat by and let it happen. And every community is full of people who go about spreading seething resentment and slamming the studio for appealing to the "SJW crowd." It's sad what it's become, and it's sad that people like you feel the need to buy into that mass hysteria just because you disliked a film.
@fishdude100: And I'm tired of belonging to a fandom that chased two female actors off social media and forced a director out of a job because they had a problem with a movie's message. Guess that neither of us gets what we want, huh?
@mogan: A lot of the reviews I've read make it seem like fan service for the anti-TLJ crowd. Even this review makes it seem like Abrams made the movie too crowded by ignoring TLJ.
@MrMan2000 Like someone else said, the idea of ownership is changing in the minds of these companies, not in the minds of everyday people. That Apple and Amazon are doing this does not constitute a justification.
People should be sacred when they hear things like this, they should be really ****ing scared. Microsoft is trying to make it so that they own the things that you the consumer pay for, so they're making money from you all the while never really giving you anything of your own in return. The fact that people can be so passive about this scares the hell out of me.
