It is all the time enjoyable to take a look at the social media posts of Elon Musk, the billionaire Twitter/X proprietor and CEO of each Tesla and SpaceX, since you by no means know what he will say subsequent, and—although he hasn’t declared whether or not he is a Republican or a conservative—he is a wake-up name as of late. Can ship into paroxysms of crying.
His newest goal is Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, who has turned the once-beloved “Star Wars” franchise right into a collection of poorly-performing streaming exhibits and films that emphasize gender politics, you realize, plot and fascinating storylines. As we report at RedState, the newest disastrous output—“The Acolyte”—options lesbian witches who use the Pressure to offer beginning. I do know “Star Wars” is a fantasy, however I guess it isn’t an in-universe factor.
Musk weighed in along with his common savage humor, liking a put up ripping Kennedy and including, “He is deadlier than the Loss of life Star!”
He’s extra lethal than the Loss of life Star!

He wasn’t performed although, and on Saturday, he was at it once more:
Kathleen Kennedy could be very bigoted towards males

“Kathleen Kennedy is just too bigoted towards males.” oops actual harm
Brandon Morse, Brad Slager and different RedState writers have written extensively about how dangerous “The Acolyte” is; Here’s a pattern:
Suppose I am going to skip it:
The creator of Disney’s ‘The Acolyte’ has tried to disprove the largely celebrated Awakening materials
‘Non-binary’ star in ‘The Acolyte’ has complete meltdown, writes Star Wars fan ‘dis observe’
Star Wars is now lesbian area witches…I am not kidding
Kennedy, nonetheless, was unapologetic:
Kennedy — who has been president of Lucasfilm since Disney purchased the movie and manufacturing firm based by “Star Wars” creator George Lucas in 2012 — defended the choice to call Leslie Hedland to direct “The Acolyte,” which is presently streaming on Disney+…
Headland has tried to make “The Acolyte” extra numerous by casting minority actors, together with Amandla Stenberg, who identifies as nonbinary and homosexual, and Korean star Lee Jong-jae, the primary lady to supply a TV collection for the franchise.
The narrative of “The Acolyte” that raises hackles implies that highly effective witches belong to an all-female coven — led by Mom Anisia, performed by actress Jodie Turner-Smith — who star Amandla Stenberg as twin lead character Amandla Stenberg. acted
Sure, it feels like a promising story. no
Artists ought to be capable of make movies about what drives them, and nobody is arguing that LGBTQ points ought to be banned; If folks need to see such fare, there’s a place for it. The place Kennedy—and Disney as a complete—fails is by injecting controversial gender theories into virtually every thing as of late. in fact The unique “Star Wars” motion pictures had a closely male fanbase – it had lightsabers, lovely girls, brutal villains and spaceships; What do not you want? The issue with the brand new Disney and Kathleen Kennedy strategy is that they imply it by way of phrases and actions There’s something improper with that.
However there is not. There’s quite a lot of content material that appeals to feminine viewers greater than males—I do not spend any of my time watching Hallmark motion pictures or “Actual Housewives of Whover”; That fare would not curiosity me within the slightest, and that is okay. However think about in the event that they began a WWE storyline within the newest “Little Ladies” adaptation (taking a look at Keira Knightley) it would not make sense, would it not? Cage preventing sweaty males discussing their passions with lovely girls in lovely clothes? I am guessing that will not be a box-office winner.
Once more, Kasturi is ready to sum up a subject with only a few phrases. She have to be doing one thing proper—she has 188 million followers. It exhibits why posts like this.
