Not a reylo but I think the appeal is the ✨spice✨. Also people seem to like Adam Driver and Rey is sweet and easy to like so she's treated as a self insert ig but idk

i can.... try to get it but like.... wow kylo is truly not my cup of tea so i'm afraid i will never get behind it :/

i have one question though and it's: if john boyega had played kylo, would reylo would have been such a big thing?

if adam driver had played finn, what would have the fandom shipped?

#i think we all know the answer. and that has always been one of my problems with this ship too #the whole thing is super complicated like i don't think i would dislike kylo as much as i do if he actually had a good backstory #the whole point of existence of kylo ren is that luke skywalker wanted to murder him which is like.... it doesn't exist in my mind #it's impossible. luke skywalker (for me) is the loveliest form of a jedi. he cares about people. he saved his father...#it is so difficult for me to imagine him trying to murder his nephew.#it's like when harper lee wrote in her second book that atticus finch was a racist <=> what the actual heck was that?#it's a total destruction of the core of your character and it makes no sense because there's no built in that #so yeah kylo ren was built on something that i simply do not believe . it's not anyone's fault except disney who had no vision at all #and yeah i truly believe that the sw fandom is a lil bit racist. it's not intentional but let's face it #they'd rather have a white male lead and love interest than a poc one...#and that's also on disney let's be clear with that. they were a bunch of cowards who did not go where they should have pushed #when they saw that some fans were into reylo they were like 'oh yeah let's go with that' instead of following the flow from TFA #and in the making they made a lot of characters insufferable in TLJ and TROS #anyway i got carried away........................ uh yeah. i could talk about that for hours rip #please ignore this long rant....#anonymous
