    Regardless of what you thought of the movie, the online vitriol directed at her was disgusting, especially when it was about her ethnicity. I don’t blame anyone a single bit for bailing on the dumpster fire that is social media.

    Yes and no.

    What happened to her on social media sucked. Star Wars has a toxic fanbase, it wasn't the first time this type of thing has happened and it won't be the last.

    Did you see how she was posting on Instagram and social media after TLJ came out? She was practically begging to be harassed. She should have expected and embraced the vitriol.

    /S, the hardest sarcasm tag I can ever use.

    we shouldn’t be surprised that someone who constantly makes threads gawking at the bodies of underage girls is too much of a bitch to back up whatever shitty takes he has to hand wave this poor woman’s suffering

    She acted like she didn't have choices in her life and everything is preordained when you clearly do. Your life is how you make it.

    Didn't care for the virtue signaling and buzz words either.

    Good for her that she's going to make some changes in her life.

    what virtue is she signaling? the virtues of not wanting to receive racist/sexist taunts and death threats?

    i don't see any "virtue signaling." i see a woman who was fed up with strangers on the internet spewing racist and sexist vitriol that clearly was affecting her mental health. perhaps you can actually enlighten me and not dance around it anymore, because i honestly have no idea what you're seeing thats wrong with what she wrote.

    She comes off as a very insecure person that blames society & oppression for the state of her mind without taking some personal responsibility too. So it comes off as more self promotion and pandering to me.

    I hope she kills it Episode 9.

    She deserved a better role than what was written for her in VIII

    It sucks that the meat of her new role was the nearly consensus weakest part of the movie in canto bight

    Responding to the criticism with she was oppressed and society is to blame is?

    Dude social media is a disease and it's pretty cool to see how it can change lives for the better, but we rarely see it.
