Kelly Marie Tran is yet another casuality of a long line of victims of Star Wars fan rage (Lloyd, Lucas, Christensen, Ridley). Sad, tbh.

SW fans can be embrassing and pathetic yeah.

Nobody deserves that crap. Harassing over someone's physical appearance, race, etc only demonstrates how simple-minded you are.

I hated Rose, and her relationship with Finn, but Tran is a legit good person and didn't deserve this.

Apparently the reason Ridley left was because she was getting too much addicted to Social Media.

Yeh this ****ing sucks. The sad part is, she had such a positive personality.
No matter what you think of the character, you shouldn't blame the actress for doing her job.
I think its safe to say the Star Wars fanbase is the most toxic fanbase ever, even more so than DC and Marvel.

Pitiful hateful, nasty Star Wars fans.

Why do people get so bothered by negative comments on social media? Makes no sense to me; never has. srsly

Regardless, this type of behavior makes Star Wars fans as a whole look bad in the eyes of the mainstream people.

It's like when anonymous doxxed Ajit Pai's family because they were upset over net neutrality. Like, gee wizz, that'll definitely help your cause. It's not like the masses are now going to think of internet-dependent young adults as crazies who resort to illegal behaviors when threatened or anything!

Well most 'mainstream' people won't be thinking about this next week, tbh.

Regardless, I just don't understand why some people get so upset when they are "attacked" on social media? It's the internet... Who gives a shit what a few f*cktards say?

Imo, running away from the "problem" makes you look even weaker... /shrug

Ordinarily I'd agree with you, but I'm approaching this from a cynical view-point.

Negative connotations were attached to Doom fans after a particular incident for a reason...

Honestly what Jake Lloyd went through was by far the worst. Harassed and bullied his entire life over TPM.

Yeah cause none of you harass, shit talk, or troll each other :rollseyes:

You’re going to be open to attack on social media...just a fact

Character was a waste of screen time

Yes, but this is KMC. It's literally called the wretched hive of scum and villainy

"Why do people assign value to things that don't really matter in the grand scheme of life???"

I don't know, it's weird. There is a kind of irony in asking that question on a message board that man-children use to come together and articulate their emotional investment in a franchise that was made for kids, though.

Galan007 |Quantum Observer|

Why is it ironic?

I just find it strange that people become SO invested in social media that comments made there from random trolls(whom they don't even know, mind you) actually affect them irl.

Don't understand it, and probably never will. My opinion: it's the internet... Who f*cking cares what people say? /shrug
