I already took Jack Posobiec’s advice, LONG before he even said anything. I already dumped Star Wars.

I no longer feel bad about Mark Hammil drinking blue milk from an obese alien boob

Way ahead of you, Jack. You're catching up to where I've been for years.

#DumpDISNEYStarWars is what it should be. If you let original Star Wars bei tainted for you by the new crap and dump it as a whole, you are ceding important pop cultural ground to the left.

I loved Star Wars for a long time. Enjoyed some but not all of the "expanded universe." Watched prequels, then the sequels, and some of the TV shows. Each step along the way, I grew less enthusiastic. I never thought the actors were "all that," except maybe Harrison Ford, because he did other good stuff (Carrie Fisher did some but much less) - and I've never sought out actors' political opinions. Now I cringe a little at seeing any new Star Wars material come out (I'm even highly suspicious of fanfic videos). I wish everyone would just pack it away for a while.

Fandom has replaced Christendom in most Western hearts. The zeal and love once channeled into the Sistine Chapel, The Last Supper, and Ode to Joy is now spent drawing fanart, fawning over actors and creators at conventions, and theory-crafting online. I like Star Wars, but I will never love it again. It can stay in its lane as a fun diversion not worth obsessing over.

I haven't watched a Star Wars film since Return of the Jedi!

I've always been a very casual fan of Star Wars. I buy none of the merch.

I’ll take Poso seriously when he starts DOING what it takes instead of just using to it farm for clout and ad revenue.

He has the clout to erect a patronage network, which is how the Enemy gets ITS media warfare work funded and distributed. He doesn’t even think of it; all he does is whine.
