Oldie but goodie.
Also since Windu isn’t a sith, using the term “dark side of the force” seems a little racist here lol

she is really, really dumb. He “shared” Cruz’s public office number. LOL. Also, she then predictably veers into standard right wing whataboutism. Good riddance.
I hope he pops her like he did to the Jawas. And then have Bill Burr make a snarky comment about keeping your mouth shut when handed something on a platter.

In response, Daisy Ridley said:
“I am very happy to be an emotionally tortured Jedi who doesn’t leave their state when it’s having a terrible time.”

She has since been hired by The Daily Wire, co-founded by conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, to produce and star in an upcoming film.

I mean, he’s not wrong about the lack of cool female characters in Star Wars.
Only if we’ll get banned together.
I assume we are referring to Force Awakens/Last Jedi Rey. I’ll ban anyone who acknowledges The Rise of Poopwalker.
Ahsoka and Hera the exceptions that prove the rule?
Because of course he did

All this crap totally ignores that there is a 99% likelihood that she was already written out of the show and didn’t even have an active contract for season 3.
Of course she’s playing it up but nowhere was it ever confirmed that she was returning.

Did you read the article?
Or just throwing some shit against the wall?
It’s a terrible headline.
Read what Burr said. He doesn’t defend anything she said or tweeted
“It’s a weird time,” he said. “Unless she did some truly horrible shit or said overtly racist s***.I don’t know. I think there is just too many channels. And then you gotta do sensational s***. I don’t know what the f*** it is. I’m on that fing show. Now, I gotta watch what the f I say.”
Burr went on to speak highly of Carano, and argued that there were people waiting for celebrities and public to slip up. “She was an absolute sweetheart,” he said. “Super nice f***ing person. And you know whatever and somehow someone will take this video and they’ll make me say something else and try to get rid of my bald action figure. It’s how it is out there. It’s fucking crazy times. People just waiting, laying in the weeds.”
Sounds like JMakin trying to cancel BB!
How is that not a defense of her? Of course I read it. Anything not condemning what she said is a defense of what she said. This goes well beyond that.
He’s actually saying that comparing republicans to holocaust victims is not overtly racist. Lol. “So yea she didnt drop the n word what’s the big deal?” He’s a full blown deplorable dude.
It’s not that Burr is a deplorable. He’s just a guy terrified of losing his livelihood because he makes a living dunking on other people. He’s been whining about it for years. This is just the latest example.

If someone doesn’t understand me or my experience, it shouldn’t be my place to have to internalize their misogyny or racism or all of the above. Maybe they just don’t have the imagination to understand that there are different types of people living in the world.
Yang believes those aspects of Tran’s nature became a lightning rod for the polarized responses to her involvement in Star Wars . “Do you remember ‘Protect Kelly Marie Tran at all costs’? That was a line people felt compelled to say over and over again, because she embodied relatability. She came from such a humble path and became a movie star,” Yang says. “I think it also makes sense that the worst of the internet would latch onto that and say, ‘Yes, bitch, you should be grateful.’ That’s the easy flip that people can make off of the energy that she conveyed, which is her gratitude and vulnerability.”

So, I’m way behind here, but I finally finished the series. People here are really OK with Luke Skywalker ex machina instead of Mando kicking ass with his newly won dark sabre as our climax? WTF?
Yeah, I think I was. Luke at full power was an unrequited tease in the shitquels, so I was ok with it; Mando kicked enough ass by that point. The black super troopers were kinda lame though.
It was a good ending. Mando wouldn’t have been able to beat 50 of those guys. Also, smrk4, that’s racist.

Luke didn’t even have to do anything special to beat those guys, though. One hit with the sabre (which Mando has), and block blaster shots (Mando has his armor instead). I think he should have at least met Luke in the middle, or had to beat a handful of them trying to break in, imo.
