So basically this would kind of be on the level of hoping Alabama loses so that an assistant coach you don't like gets fired. It just seems backwards and silly to me.I love George Lucas's Star Wars. This Disney version is an abomination and I want Kathleen Kennedy and her SJW Identity politics pushing agenda muppets gone with her.
I'm more than happy for a few films to fail to get this franchise back to it's Original Tone and Mythos instead of the current Meta version that is trying to mirror our USA political landscape. I'll watch CNN or Fox if I want politics shoved in my face..... not Star Wars.
I've yet to feel politics shoved in my face by these new Star Wars movies. A lot of sci-fi films/books/etc are allegories for politics/our world. It's nothing new. It's only whether you want to get your panties twisted over the particular brand of politics that it feels thrown in your face.
George Lucas's Star Wars is no different. So I guess you should avoid it in the future as well if you don't want politics thrown in your face:

And another link: https://www.history.com/news/the-real-history-that-inspired-star-warsGeorge Lucas has been pretty open about certain political influences on his space opera.
In an interview for the Chicago Tribune in 2015, Lucas stated explicitly that the movie "was really about the Vietnam War, and that was the period where Nixon was trying to run for a term, which got me to thinking historically about how do democracies get turned into dictatorships? Because the democracies aren’t overthrown; they’re given away.”
There it is. Black and white. Clear as crystal. Star Wars was about Nixon. Good day, sir.
Did you think that was too subtle? How about when, during an interview in "The Making of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi," Lucas, when asked if Palpatine had ever been a Jedi, replied, "No, he was a politician. Richard M. Nixon was his name. He subverted the senate and finally took over and became an imperial guy and he was really evil. But he pretended to be a really nice guy."
Sorry to ruin the original movies for you too. Guess George Lucas shouldn't have pushed his SJW politics.
