everyone hates "The Acolyte"

Why Kathleen Kennedy insists on ruining the Disney Star Wars brand this way is beyond me. Ideology trumps story quality, I guess. It's more important to populate your universe with plump, dusky lesbians than to tell a good story where people's demographics are seamlessly integrated into the fabric of the narrative. See, that's the thing: it's not the [pick your demographic] that's the problem: it's the insistence on shoehorning that demographic into the story simply for the sake of fucking representation that's the problem. Since when did representation become so important? Don't answer that; I already did (see here, here, and here, for example). It's just sad. Take Star Wars out back and shoot it in the head.
