Haha please stop this nonsense.

That’s the right attitude.
Point stands though. Why do we have a thread about this one character alone, and no other.
Whichever mod split and made it needs to answer.

Not fuckin cool

It's completely, utterly wrong and makes no sense in the context of star wars or outside it. But I'll never cease to be amazed by stip's ability to rationalize his absurd positions.

And none of them are threads accusing them of being the worst character

Is there no possibility at all that some people genuinely didn't like the character?
I thought she was fine, but I was definitely confused by the sacrifice thing. I'm also not really a star wars fan, so I guess I could have missed some subtext

Someone was mean to her on Twitter, therefore you can never criticize the fictional character ever.

I can't stomach pearl jam chat anymore, so all I have left right now is star wars and tournaments.
We need an MCU forum. I could play there all day
I like the MCU films but I don't have much of need to discuss them and rewatch them all the time. I wish I was more passionate about them, if for no other reason that I'd get to interact with you more.

The depth and breadth of your logical fallacy game is impressive, Burt.

But its whats happening here right?
I never discussed the genre of the character and Dime still thinks there are people here who dont like her because she is a girl.

Oh, another logical fallacy! Burt would be proud.
No, VG, that's not what's happening here. If the things being discussed don't apply to the things you've said, then maybe, just maybe, those comments aren't actually directed at you.
Look at the words you chose in your own post. "I never" and "there are people here." Just because you never said or discussed those things doesn't mean that others haven't/aren't.
