Interesting but not surprising. The acridity, even found on these forums, is bad for the fandom and symptomatic of a greater problem here in the US.

You know it goes well beyond film criticism. It's pure, bloody red meat and clearly a tirade against feminism, sexual preference and diversity. Classic alt-right trolling.

Look at Kyle's madness in the Sequel Trilogy subforum! What the fuck is that?!

Maybe fans will wake up and ask themselves why is Lucasfilm and their employees giving legitimacy and a audience to these racist that are disrespectful by responding.

People in the comment section dont even bother reading the study. If they would they would notice how the report is not about not liking the movie is bad or started by trolls but how it was used by them to split the people even more then without them.

Well, they successed.

True kylekatarnmg
There are a majority of fans that dont even participate in most of this stuff anyway and good for them.

Thanks for sharing this parry of sorts. But there still be doucherockets who are using their response to entries in this franchise to boisterously espouse their brand of political rabble-rousing.

Bwah-hah-hah-hah!

Oh, I sat out on this one for a while, KNOWING full well which of our community members would believe that "It was the RUSSIANS(!) who did it!"

Yes, that "study" sure was "academic." And it's easy to see right from the get-go, that it's agenda-free, for sure! Not a bit of propaganda intended. Considering WHO wrote it, of course it'd be lilly-white in its "academicness." Because, you know, professors and their staff are magically BEYOND-human, and are completely free of the influence of ideology and subversion. Well, if we *should* listen to anyone, it should be academics, right? They don't ever lie. Ever!

PATHETIC!
:whateva:

Russia, who's entire GDP is but a teeny tiny BLIP when compared to the U.S.A., is able to do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING and WHENEVER they want to the BEHEMOTH EMPIRE of the U.S. of A.

Have you looked at a MAP of the world's military bases and major deployments and used TWO BRAIN CELLS to see what it is SCREAMING AT YOU?

Do we see a map of Russian forces ENCIRCLING the world with its forces, or is it the USA that is doing that?

Do you have a BRAIN?

Can it think, even a LITTLE BIT?

Who is ACTUALLY threatening whom here?

Here, let me try to help you. Here are some maps. Take a look at them. Turn on TWO brain cells when you attempt to "analyze" them. The ONE brain cell that is typically used, I'm sorry, will NOT be enough. You will HAVE TO use two...

https://nationalpostcom.files.wordpress.com/2011/10/fo1029_usbases12001.gif

https://www.google.com/search?q=United+states+military+bases+world&client=firefox-b-1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj7qsGun-7dAhUMzVMKHfdiCgAQ_AUIDigB&biw=1280&bih=586&dpr=1.25

Depending on how one defines "military presence," estimates vary from 700-1,200 American bases spread out around the world.

Let's stick with 700. That is still an unimaginable amount of death and destruction seeded allover the planet.

For comparison's sake, how many military bases does the "world dominating" Russia have outside its own soil?

Are you READY?

I bet that the evidence is OVERWHELMING in YOUR favor. After all, your worldview is the CORRECT one. That's why it's perfectly okay to disappear opinions that differ from yours from the internet!

:execution: <--Know-Everything-SJWs lovingly applying the 1st Amendment to those who's opinions differ

How many military bases does Russia have outside its own borders, ready to takeover the world with?

NINE!

A "mighty" NINE countries!

Ohhhhhhh no! I am SO quaking in my boots! :ohno:

Nine!

Yeah, you preach to ME how much superior your intellect is. But you BUY this blatant and pathetically ridiculous "Russia is the fault of everything" crap in an instant. Scarfing it down just as your masters want you to.

And you're so far superior to those of us who rightfully condemn the Disney cabal of Kennedy/Abrams/Hidalgo/Johnson/Kasdans who have Lando humping a robot who later becomes the Millennium Falcon. Y'know, it's "oh so innocent" and "cute," isn't it? Having Lando getting it on with a robot (that he OWNS) and that she "really enjoys it too." Hah-hah! So cute!

It's indefensible filth.

Something you know VERY well Lucas would never have put into his family focused franchise.

So, take your mighty brains, the ones that know everything about everything, take a look at all of those maps of world conquest, and keep convincing yourselves that you DO know The Truth of how the world "really" works.

Meanwhile, we'll just keep following the agenda as first enacted by "Nobel Peace Prize" winner Obama, who ILLEGALLY invaded seven countries (that we KNOW of), displacing MILLIONS from their homes, and slaughtering HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS, and keep stockpiling treaty-breaking weapons and forces all along Russia's borders, and just keep squeezing it and squeezing it, a country who's land was brutally RAPED by the Nazis (and previously INVADED by the good ol' USA), and rightfully swears that no foreign army will ever lay foot on its blood-soaked ground again. See, they "might" have a GOOD REASON for not trusting the U.S. to surround it with weapons and military forces.

Don't even bother trying to correct me on "how" I think, when you can buy the crap of international politics as described above. Square THAT round-hole to me first, and then I'll listen to your opinions on how making the Millennium Falcon an insatiable pansexual was a perfectly fine thing to do.

Here's what's REALLY going on in terms of who is threatening who:

"Ich bin ein Berliner?" oder "Ich bin Berliner?"

"Ja," oder "Nein?"

Hey, KyleKartanMG, being that you live in Deutschland, it should be REAL easy for you to dig up super accurate maps of how Russia is just surrounding you guys like crazy.

Could you supply me with even ONE map that proves your side?

No?

Ach! Schade!

Das ist sehr nicht gut!

Ha-ha!

How about you try ACTUALLY ADDRESSING MY POINTS, instead of merely directing witticisms my way.

Did Obama illegally invade seven countries (who didn't so much as throw a stone to land on America's shores), displacing millions?

Hey, maybe you could send me photos from Deutschland of all of the "war refugees" who "didn't" swarm your homeland, because, you know, Obama was the peace keeper, and "never" invaded those countries and smash them to smithereens. And because they still have an intact and robust homeland, they never answered Frau Merkel's open-door-policy back in 2015.

How's that working out for you guys, anyway?

Pretty good, I bet!

Ha-ha!

Silky smooth integration (those refugees are happily melding with all of you!), and crime rates dropping like crazy. No mass public sexual assaults of girls and women (and little boys!), and rapes are practically unheard of since Frau Merkel's genius move. And those refugees (who aren't there), they treat homosexuals pretty good, don't they? Hey! You look at that list of who's getting mass-raped and mass-molested: girls, boys and women, and who's getting assaulted: homosexuals - and that reads like a pansexual's paradise if there ever was one! I can't wait for you to supply me with statistical data that proves how wonderful things have gotten in Deutschland and France since 2015.

Ja, Mann!

Ha-ha!

Progressive immigration policy is ALWAYS The Best! No mass sexual assaulting of women in good ol' Germany! No explosion in the rates of rapes either! Even if they happen (and they don't), these small things - they're just tiny bumps in the road to creating The Perfect Utopia, and they are WORTH it.

Na Klar!

Just look at how GREAT progressive policies are in Deutschland! Ja, Mann!

Ok....

On the study the guy who wrote it had this to say from a newspaper article "The author of the study himself, perhaps taken by surprise, himself played down the results.

“I really tried to be very careful in how I framed this. There’s no evidence Russians did anything unusual or meaningful,” Morten Bay, now a researcher affiliated with Center for the Digital Future at the University of Southern Californiaa, told The Post’s Steven Zeitchik."

So like was pointed out this was used as rabble-rousing. I feel bad cause I kinda jumped on this guy in my comment before .
