Stamets, (edited ) to starwarsmemes in I mean at least pick a real flaw. There's not exactly a shortage

Well I’m sorry to inform you but this was 100% the last one. It doesn’t seem to matter whether it’s OT, PT or ST. The Star Wars fandom is remarkably toxic and I’m just kind of tired of it. I don’t think I’ve ever had a conversation with a Star Wars fan that didn’t end up just them screaming about how Disney is horrible and the Sequels are a war crime and the Prequels were stupid until they weren’t and the OT was picture perfect. Every single time someone brings up anything new in Star Wars it devolves into a bitchfit. Look at this meme. The only thing it’s saying is that if you’re going to complain about the Sequels then focus on stuff that actually happened and not stuff that people invented just because they were upset that their movie didn’t go the way they wanted. What’s the comments? Exactly that. Whiny and pathetic children who are more happy to invent their own reality about how everything is awful than just cope with the fact that not everything is going to be great and not everything is going to be the way that they want it.

I started posting memes to this community on my other account months ago and had the exact same realization then. For some stupid reason a couple of weeks ago I thought “Hey, it can’t be that bad.” Nah. It was. That and the fact that the like 6 moderators here do literally nothing. Comments and posts are removed automatically because of a low score and then no mod interacts it ever. Shits being removed simply because “it was reported”. This entire community is a dumpster fire of the highest fucking proportions. Feels appropriate.

I am absolutely embarrassed to call myself a fan of Star Wars because I have to get thrown in with these pathetic losers. And this is why you’ll never see me talking about Star Wars again despite being about as big a fan of it as I am Star Trek.

No. I am not. You simply need to look harder, or really just look at all. If you’re claiming that you cannot find any evidence then you simply didn’t look. Merely googling her name and the word controversy brings up more than enough examples.

If you like Star Wars, why make that tone negative?

Ah yes. The meme that specifically is calling out false complaints and negativity within the community that is directed towards nothing is checks notes is actually negative itself.

Like I said. Thanks for reminding me why I love Star Wars and avoid the fanbase of it like the absolute fucking plague.

LOL, it was your phrase dude.

No. It was yours. The meme specifically mocks that phrase by destroying it and says it doesn’t happen.

he pulled out his weapon, ignited it, and nearly swung before hesitating. So let’s say, “Luke almost trying to kill Ben,” if you wanna be pedantic about your own words.

Which isn’t pedantic. There is a considerable difference between trying to kill someone and not doing that. Almost means it may have happened but it also, very much means, that it didn’t. The whole point of the meme is mocking people like you who insist that these situations happened and then complain about it as if its fact. It isn’t. It’s your misunderstanding and misphrasing of the scene, not the scene itself. Luke never at any point tried to kill Ben and your first comment is coming saying “Hurr, he tried to kill Ben.”

Bruh.

I thought the acting from most of the cast was pretty solid. The visual effects were nice while still harkening back to the Original Trilogy and looking “outdated” in certain respects. I loved Poe and I thought that Phasma was pretty badass if underutilized, then again that’s kind of consistent with Star Wars at this point. I loved the new scores. Crait was visually gorgeous with the salt and red earth combination. Lightsaber battles in new locations was also really awesome, especially the snow sequence in The Force Awakens. The blue and red shining off of the snow looked so cool. I thought Takodana was a really neat location and the shots of the X-Wings flying in were stunning. Han using the Bowcaster was kind of hilarious. As someone who was raised in a really abusive household, I also really appreciated and loved the theme of not being who your family is. Ben/Kylo obviously went to the darker extreme but Rey also rebelled pretty hard against her lineage and I related to that.

To start with.

Luke trying to kill Ben bugged me.

Never happened.

He went into his room, looked at Ben, and realized he had ignited his own saber. There was no attempt at murder or killing. It was a moment where he was caught up in the dark side but he didn’t try to actually kill Ben.

Literally what the meme is talking about though, thanks for so succinctly proving the point lol

So many people who complain about shit that never happened. Y’all are inventing your own boogeymen. There are legit problems with the movies and no one focuses on those. Instead people just make this shit up and go after stuff that was never shown and never occurred. Never seen any other fandom do this.

    Same. There isn’t a single pizzacake comic in my folders and never will be. They’re just not good. Every single one is painfully low hanging fruit. Like this “joke” would be used in a half second throwaway gag on a sitcom. It’s not strong enough for a comic. But that’s like… Every comic Pizzacake makes. That or half of her comics are just her complaining about something.

    Fucking pass.

    @Stamets@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah. There’s a reason that I have never posted her comics and never will. Beyond the fact that her comics have never once made me laugh (I do not understand how this comic is supposed to be funny), she would get really antagonistic towards people and throw entire fits. That’s not the type of behavior I am a huge fan of and certainly not the behavior I want to see on lemmy.

    Let her stay on reddit.

    Stamets, to asklemmy in Xenophobia is to racism what homophobia is to ... ?
    @Stamets@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah. There is a word for it. It’s called homophobia.

    I have no idea why so many people seem to believe that the word is defined as a fear of gay people. No one is running from us like a mouse, dude.

    I have no idea what the zeta thing is. Mine is way more relaxed. An odd kink people don’t quite understand but still remarkably tame and with a growing presence in kink and popculture overall.

    Stamets, to lemmyshitpost in I do believe they exist
    @Stamets@lemmy.world avatar

    Enough. Trust me. There’s a kink I’m specifically into where people have added a thing to their wardrobe to show they’re into this kink. Not something accidentally attributed to something else either. I’ve had a bunch of people notice it in my wardrobe and I’ve noticed it in others. Incredibly common when I never would have thought so.
