#Anti Kylo Ren BS

[midgardianqueenreturns]

Maybe this is an oversimplification, I don’t want to generalize, and I really dislike “people only dislike this character because x” type of takes, but I have to say, I don’t think it’s totally a coincidence Snape and Kylo Ren look so alike and inspire very similar levels of widespread vile hatred and moral outrage from their respective fandoms. Obviously it’s not a total overlap as I’ve seen plenty of Kylo stans who are anti Snape and vice-versa, but still. I can’t help but wonder if them having very similar appearances that aren’t conventionally handsome plays a role in why their antis are so excessively hostile and unhinged in their hatred for them. Again, this is probably an oversimplification and generalization (and I don’t want to suggest *everyone* who hates Snape and/or Kylo only does so beccause of their looks), but I can’t help but notice this connection.

It’s insulting and reductive to Leia’s character to make her everyone’s mother figure.

Leia is Ben’s mother, and she is also a General and a Princess and a Rebel Leader. Leia is still her own person.

anti kylo fans include short-w saying poe was han and leia's son and they replaced him as their son

Poe Dameron is a grown-ass man who already has badass Rebel parents named Shara Bey and Kes Dameron, thank you very much.

Just saw some stupid Anti Kylo post and-

Excuse me

...they’re talking about THIS dude:

This dude

THIS DUDE

There’s no one in the whole entire galaxy who uses more haircare products than this man

...

What are these haters smoking??

Referring to Kylo Ren as Kyle Ron or Kyle Rat does not make you look as you cool as you think it does.

They also didn't wake up to find Luke standing over them with an ignited lightsaber.

Here is the JCF with their Kylo hate yet again:

Luke’s “contribution” was not passing on his failures in his teaching. However none of his other students fell to the dark side did they? Nope just Ben.

Ben is fully to blame for his own fall. Luke did not create Kylo.

None of his other students had a predator in their head FROM BIRTH.

But, don't let that get in the way of your hate.

every time someone parallels ben & zuko or reylo & darcy/lizzie, you can almost hear the sound of antis shrieking in the distance and that's beautiful

This is actually an absolutely buckwild unhinged response to me getting suspended if it's about the person I think it is.

The one who has supported countless mass harassment campaigns, a significant portion of them based on total fabrications, including one for a dear friend? And including one that got me dogpiled with transphobic and antisemitic bs? The one who hangs out with Winterfox? The one who calls Reylos Nazis? The one who has insidiously sneaked their censorship agenda into their anti-racism campaign by conflating actual racism (a very real issue on AO3) with people writing smut about Kylo Ren? The one who has a mob of followers who they direct at anyone they dislike? Who's been extremely racist to other POC in fandom?

And you think I should not mention that when everyone goes in cluelessly to their activist work, not knowing half of it is about ship wars?

Ok

Honestly I also have to admit it's very disheartening how many people just believed F8 and crew or the rumours without doing any verification. I kind of thought a lot of these people were people I was friendly with, so. Idk, part of the reason I feel reluctant to come back, at least yet, is how many people believed that shit about me uncritically. Kind of ironic, given the reason I got the dogpile of reports in the first place was wanting to put grooming accusations through some actual verification first. Because of shit like this. But I've talked extensively about how I feel about this kind of online culture.

Tumblr: STAN VILLAINS! NEVER APOLOGIZE! NEVER JUSTIFY! YOU DO YOU!

me: Yea-

Tumblr: EWW! I DIDN'T MEAN KYLO REN! GO TO HELL!

[midgardianqueenreturns]

Congrats you just made the trilogy worse.

[austenslut]

Hey guess what antis who preach abt the age difference aren’t allowed to ship hanleia or stormpilot now bc their differences are the same as reylo :0

[charnine]

It's really hilarious how some of you hate Kylo Ren/Ben Solo, but your OCs are literally female/poc Kylo Ren. Ok, I guess abuse never happens to white men, and if it does it's alright, they deserve it. 🙄

[human-calcifer]

Antis really think that online activism against a 'fictional ship' is a genius trait that they will put them in resume to get a job. All you got support online from a clout chasing fake wokes who weren't even part of star wars fandom. As about tumblr activism. It's now a joke

[omegaling]

I wonder how many Anakin Skywalker stans are told on a daily basis that Vader is a war criminal, that he never deserved redemption, and they shouldn’t find tragedy in his story

[spinnenpfote6]

Hate to break it to ya, but if you really watched the ST and came to the conclusion that Rey’s entire story only revolved around Kylo and that her only end goal was to save him just because they crossed paths a lot then you have a pretty misogonystic way of thinking.

What about Rey breaking free from Jakku and finding new friends, Rey wanting to know about her parents and family, her search for a new family, her discovering and learning to control her powers which leads to the saving of the Resistance, her learning about the force and training because she wanted to become a Jedi and bring the Jedi back overall? What about Rey learning and coming to terms with the fact that she’s a Palpatine, going on a quest for the wayfinder, fighting with fear of her own power and anger and battling Palps? Rey saving the galaxy by killing herself in the process? Did you watch even 5 minutes of that trilogy??

[fcrce-dyad]

ants truly be out there looking at the trailers and thinking "oh Rey will wreck Kyle Ron! they're fighting on all scenes! take that reylos!"

[sparklingjane]

Anti: How can you like Kylo Ren?

Also anti: No! Don't tell me and don't at me.

She also mentions how her hating him shouldn't affect us (true), but ironically our loving him seems to affect her.
