      I wish all these racist, sexist assed fuckers could feel even a tiny bit of shame and even an ounce of compassion. We've gotta reign in the toxicity that is dominating and destroying what would otherwise be vibrant and welcoming fandoms.https://twitter.com/swtweets/status/1003833275738013697 …

      Within moments of sharing this my feed is full of men telling me how much they disliked Rose as a character. Cool, you are entitled to that opinion BUT YOU DO NOT GET TO HARASS AND ABUSE SOMEONE BECAUSE OF IT.

          What're we collectively doing to end online harassment? If you want to see change then how are you building respectful norms in your communities? Are you calling out toxic behaviour? What pressure are you putting on social media companies to create safer platforms?

          Our experiences as marginalized folks online is constantly navigating a mindfield of hate, every-fucking-day. I barely look at my mentions anymore because it's exhausting (at best). BUT THIS ISN'T JUST THE WAY IT HAS TO BE. We can make real change... but we have to do the work.

          I disliked Jar-Jar as a character, but I didn't feel the need to scare whoever voiced him off the internet forever because I didn't like a pretend guy in a movie.

          Plus, if you dislike the character, why the actor? If anything, you should be hating the board-room executives who are more than likely the rich white men that put the character there to begin with.

          It's very confusing to me that these people explicitly take issue with the character but end up harassing and criticizing the actress. I mean, she probably didn't have a huge part in writing the screenplay

          Wow. I definitely don’t understand these “men”. Rose was cool. Ms Tran is amazing. I loved the character and what Ms Tran is bringing to the SW movies.

          There's always that small section of cunts afterall that don't seperate an actor from their character. It sucks. Joffery Baratheon is a fucking cunt in and of itself. Doesn't mean you should treat his actor as one.

          I liked Rose. This is not fair to her. I have seen movies I didn't like but never harassed actors over them. It's a movie. Move on These haters are not fans. Fandom does not act like this. These are the same people who drove Lucas away from the franchise he created. Idiots.

          I am trying to think of a reason to dislike her. She said fight for the ones you love, don’t kill the ones you hate. That’s the kind of clarity Rogue One lacked. I just wish that Finn-Rose conclusion had been setup better. Finn wasn’t known to have anger issues b4. Go Rose tho.

          Do they understand that it’s acting? Why would disliking a character justify harassing an actor. They didn’t hunt down whoever voiced Jar Jar
