The true Hypergamy

You know who I've never seen criticize the politics of the Star Wars prequels? Map-gamers and history buffs. You know who's never criticized the CGI? VFX Artists and set designers. You know who never criticized the dialogue of the romance? People who've actually had young love and had bad breakups. You know who never criticized the Character of Jar-Jar Binks? Anyone who's actually had to work with political candidates. . At every turn the people who supposedly should be MOST upset about some "flaw" of the story, actually adore that thing in particular. On the Contray all the "criticisms" are seemingly a smokescreen for a seething hatred and ressentiment against the Young white boys and girls the films are made for and targeted at. The space politics aren't hated because they "Don't make sense" the politics are handled very similar to Turkish-Arab-British Relations in 'Lawrence of Arabia' or Colonialism in 'the Battle of Algeirs' or the Russian Revolution in "Dr Zivago" there, but in the background relative to the Characters... They're hated because the exist at all reminding people that precocious 12 year olds are actually reading the books and following it. The CGI is hated not because its "Bad" but because it doesn't give the illusion of watching something edgy and "mature" but rather dives headfirst into the Weird of the Fantastic setting that awkward nerds feel status anxiety about enjoying, and non-nerds feel threatened by. The Romantic dialogue is hated because it reminds grumpy people who've never had love that people who do are suave space pirate power fantasies... They're just braver and slog through the awkward (like kids do in their first love) Jar-Jar is hated because he speaks exactly as stupidly and rediculously as Americans desperately pretend their own diversity hires and sports/music stars do all the time... He's jsut different enough that it pains Americans to look on it in relation to another dying republic (Yes JarJar is exactly what 50% of US politicians and celbrities look like, no embellishment, exactly the man who attains high status in a late egalitarian republic) . They hated the prequels NOT for being bad, but for being TRUE in a way that insulted their lies, and they could see all this was true when they saw innocent kids eating it up!
