    Yes. You are making shit up and I don’t have the energy or patience to bother explaining it to you.

    I’m just done with this entire website being a carbon copy of reddit. Even you mods do the same shit and either stretch the truth or outright lie.

    I also kept saying I’ve never been banned and you start talking about removals. Yes dude. You’re making shit up. I have no interest in dealing with LEMMY at this point either because of this garbage from mods like you and behavior from everyone else.

    Have fun dude. I’m not staying around a place with people lying about me and what has happened in order to protect their own fragile fucking ego.

    This is a complete and utter lie.

    You have never banned me from this community. I have exactly one ban from this community and it was done by moss. I have also had one removal from this community. That was over an NSFW post. I disagreed that it was NSFW which is why I ended up deleting that post.

    I do not, however, appreciate you outright fucking lying about me. I do not appreciate you ever saying that I have ever posted transphobic ANYTHING. You want to say whatever else about me? Fine. But you have literally no evidence of ever banning me for being transphobic because it never happened. The modlogs are public. I’d recommend you check them before making shit up about people or ‘misremembering’ shit about them.

    Oh 100%. The thing that pisses me off though is when people direct it only at the sequels as if there aren’t glaring moments in every other movie too. Like this lightsaber ending up here? She’s connected to the resistance in some effect so sure. That doesn’t bother me. People complain about the “Somehow the Emperor has returned too” but like… we saw how he returned. Cloning. Was literally in the movie. It was only the Rebellion that didn’t know how the Emperor returned because like… why would they? Palps giving out the details on his resurrection to everyone like some kind of moron?

    Meanwhile…

    1. Vader isn’t capable of sensing Leia is his daughter while staring her dead in the fucking eyes and (in the radio drama) literally torturing her but he gets the vibe of Luke fucking instantly otherwise.

    2. “Only Imperial Stormtroopers are so precise”. They then proceed to miss everything for three movies.

    3. Zero foreshadowing for Luke and Leia being twins to the point they kiss

    4. Han says he’s flown from one side of the Galaxy to the other and doesn’t believe in the force despite the Jedi being galaxy famous less than 20 years before that moment.

    5. Technology taking an INCREDIBLY steep nosedive in 20 years

    6. Obi-Wan lying left/right/center where he either just makes shit up or omits massive details but is true “from a certain point of view”

    7. Obi-Wan doesn’t recognize R2 and R2 never says shit to anyone despite no memory wipes. Oh and VADER DOESN’T RECOGNIZE HIS FUCKING DROIDS.

    8. “If its not in the archives, it doesn’t exist”. So they’re the guardians of knowledge but don’t notice a planet being deleted out from under them. Also, if it isn’t in the archives it doesn’t exist? WHAT?!

    9. Farmer boy becomes fighter pilot overnight because ‘The Force’ and shooting womprats

    10. Sifo-Dyas just orders a clone army and no one notices or asks questions or anything. I know it’s partially explained in Clone Wars but still way too fucking sketchy to be satisfied over.

    11. Padme just dies

    12. They train Luke but not Leia?

    13. Palpatine just somehow skates by on being a Sith lord for decades while being 5 feet away from Yoda for YEARS

    14. Dooku just appears in Episode 2 with zero mention despite being a major figure and having trained Qui Gon

    15. Speaking of, Obi Wan calls Yoda his master but his master was Qui Gon

    16. Midichlorians. Hyper important. Never mentioned again.

    17. Death Star takes 20 years to build but the second one takes no time at all to be half completed and bigger than the first one. Oh and it’s fully operational. Sure.

    18. Jedi aren’t supposed to love. Anakin marries Padme. They’re always together. Like… literally no one noticed? Ever? Or are all Jedi boomers and believe that marriages are supposed to be loveless?

    19. Yoda just knows how to become a force ghost from Qui Gon who learned post death and Yoda taught it to Obi-Wan off screen. Oh and Vaderkin knows. Somehow.

    20. Leia remembers her mother. Who died in childbirth.

    21. The Rebel Alliance goes from ragtag fleet of fuckall to an entire navy with star cruisers.

    Now, a lot of those can be explained. You can either think of an explanation yourself and use it as headcanon or scrape through the canonical extended stuff like novelizations or whatever and fill in gaps. You can make arguments and say one thing is one way or another thing is another way. Hell I could come up with a ton of reasons for all of those. I DO come up with reasons for all of those. I love Star Wars and if it’s not openly explained I’ll have an explanation that fits. But what pisses me the fuck off is that everyone is willing to do it to the EXTREMELY LONG LIST of shit from the Original Trilogy and Prequel Trilogy but immediately give up for the Sequel trilogy. It’s complete hypocrisy to say “These glaring errors are okay but those aren’t because they don’t come from the sparkling region of errors.”

    also not saying you’re doing that. Just wanted to vent. It’s legitimately the reason why I just actively avoid every single Star Wars community I’ve ever had the displeasure of having to deal with. Whether that be on Reddit or even here on Lemmy. The toxicity from Star Wars fans is fucking insane because it has no logic behind it. Star Trek people will argue to the death over because Star Trek lays everything out arguably too much so you can at least use a thousand points to fall back on for your argument. Star Wars is just passionate fans getting angry about shit they don’t like for no reason other than they don’t like it while being blind to the things they do like being guilty as fuck of what they’re crying over.

    Some do though

    You’re half right. All of them do. That being said, it isn’t a fucking problem.

    OP is an absolute numpty but this point of view is utter nonsense and demonstrates an extreme lack of media comprehension skills. The point of a skit is to frame it as reality so that you can relate to the skit. There are no skits that open with anything saying “This is fake and a skit.” They assume that the viewer has enough brain cells to determine that it is a skit and then just enjoy it for what it is. Evidentally y’all have enough to narrow down that it is a skit but then you just completely lock up, point and scream fake at the top of your lungs. It’s fucking exhausting and, to me, gives me the instant visual of someone who just points at the sky and goes “IT’S BLUE” and then drools all over themselves.
