Really enjoyed the conversation. I think you boys represent the best of Star Wars fandom, I genuinely mean it (no pun.) But I also feel it's extremely important to talk about all aspects of the franchise. As much as I personally hate going into the politics, if I feel it is being deliberately politicised and a lot of fans feel gaslighted, it should be a conversation, not branded as toxicity. Touch discourse is preferrential to opressive silence.

Bless you both for considering my criticism valid haha!

6 minutes into it, Mike you are always as level-headed and sincerely diplomatic as I expect to hear from you, if anything your observations point to the True North of the fandom. Although continuity and respecting lore that comes before is important to me (X-Men: First Class) I don't hold any SW projects beholden to previous work. It has to be good within its own work frame.

Thank you for your kind words and your support!
