your tags on my set were a gem to wake up to and I wish I lived in the world where everyone thought it, but sadly yes! It was a huge thing after tlj came out, that Poe was a misogynistic asshole who didn't respect women and that was why he disobeyed Leia and Holdo's orders/didn't like Holdo. The backlash against Poe after that movie was immense, you couldn't go anywhere without seeing it, and a lot of people loved painting him as the movie's example of toxic masculinity. Luckily, that seemed to have died down in the last few years, but I still see some lingering remnants for it here and there 🥴

wowwwwwwwwwww, that is unreal! how anyone could misunderstand his character so much they'd label him a misogynist is beyond me. 😕 almost like they were watching a completely different set of movies tbh. suddenly i'm very glad i was not participating in the online sw communities when those movies were coming out lol because that would've pissed me tf off!
