Disney Star Wars bad Classic EU good

Everything went to absolute shite after the Disney acquisition. The sequel trilogy is an absolute catastrophe of an abomination. For starters, episode 6 was called Return of the Jedi, then they go and call episode 8 The Last Jedi? So the Jedi came back, the force awakened (whatever that means) and then the Jedi fade away again? Lame. This is the garbled mess they sacrificed 30 years of popular and compelling expanded universe content for. Characters like Mara Jade and the Solo children retconned out of existence. The suncrusher and vong invasion relegated to legend. The prequel trilogy was so good. The Phantom Menace was a good movie, pod racing is awesome. Attack of the Clones was carried by Ewan McGregor investigating a mystery in classic film noir style. And Revenge of the Sith is the best Star Wars movie. I denounce Disney Star Wars. I’m sticking with the eu.

Would it make sense for a person in a "privileged class" to move from a red state?
  • OP doesn’t like the state government and has trouble relating to the local community. I have a similar experience and cope by adjusting my lifestyle and not insisting society bend to suit my Mercurial political mood, that’s all.

  • It’s a great place to live, even though I’m unemployed. My perspective is limited due to personal circumstance though. I’m just saying you can be happy and fulfilled even if you live in a society that doesnt perfectly match your values.

  • Don’t let politics rule your life’, friend. I have far right wing opinions and live in what I consider to be a redistributionist socialist utopia, totally hostile to personal economic development. But more likely, like you alluded to, we both probably just spend too much time online getting politically polarized. Nowhere is perfect, and geographical political isolation is bad for the country. I advocate for localization, building the world you want where you are, and socializing even more online. My online friendships are more persistent and convenient, and sometimes deeper and more human than real life.
