I officially declare that Star Wars has one of the worst fandoms around.
You’re not wrong.
Mfw I’ve known this ever since the Prequel era:
Is anyone doxxing in the Star Wars fandom?
Not to my knowledge, but apart from endless bitching I know for a fact they tormented Jake Lloyd for being little Anakin so much they drove him insane into a mental hospital and he burned all of his star wars merch.
He actually had Schizophrenia, but yea he was bullied so much that he retired from acting and got rid of all his star wars stuff.
That is so sad. :( Why would they bully a little kid?
He was bullied because the “fans” didn’t like the prequels.
Even Mark Hamill hated what was done to Jake Lloyd and all the kid did was follow Lucas’s direction for the film. It was not even his fault.
I’ve never really gotten the vitriol the prequels have to suffer. Sure they’re deeply flawed films but by no means are they the worst thing ever.
