Additionally, I would argue that genres like sci fi and fantasy are the perfect place to put political explorations. Rather than being overt about a particular message, they can examine issues of politics, ethics, morals in ways that can't be explored in the real world. Furthermore, these issues are of fundamental importance to every person, and should be examined, regardless of genre.
as I said, that's ok if it's something that's new (Define new! ok something you have never heard or seen anyone talking about anywhere else in the last 10 years or known history of civilization.), but it's not necessary to explore it in context of some fantasy like star wars IF (and here it comes) it is already presently a topic in society with-in the last 10 years or a known topic to have been pushed in past histories.
what I'm saying is there are people in media who think it's a good idea to spread such ideologies in a massive way, Ex; you turn on the TV to a random channel "did you hear frank likes unicorns?" you switch channel, halfway through another program "are you pony enough? because I'm full unicorn!", court program on another channel "you're discriminating against him because he's Unicorn!", new star trek film "I'm sorry Spock, I just can't do this.... because... I'm unicorn!", news program "today a boy was kicked out of school for proclaiming he is unicorn in class, apparently they are calling this practice 'getting on the pony' a term being used similar to 'get on the horse' and 'coming out of the closet' the school board has expressed that this is improper behavior in a classroom setting, but this rightsactivist protest group is demanding the school allow it in the classroom, saying it's a human rights issue", "today NewYork state has put forward a legislation attempting to ban Unicorn conversion therapy citing that it's better to just let them be unicorn".
enough is enough, we heard you already. some people will be happy, some people will be angry, some people will be 'meh' some people will be 'not sure if want' some people will be 'me gusta!' it's done, it's over, it's no longer necessary to push it, the topic is out, let the public be. enough is enough, it gets depressing when you can't get 'clean' entertainment because everyone follows such a media topic fad. enough is enough, we got it, you killed it, you went overboard now it's not just dead it's mush on cold pavement, you still push it? it's disintegrated. still push it? now it's anti-matter and people get opposed to it.
"but there's still people who hate my little pony!", yeah, duh. haters gonna hate man, and people get tired of S***. All pushing it that much does is force people to pick sides, some will be extreme supporters, the rest who were 'meh' or 'not sure if want' before are going to be annoyed and join the opposition group called haters, by pushing it more and more you will get more people biased against you and then the fad can finally rest in peace.
what happens to people who still want to push it? well to be honest, there's going to be somewhere in the world where there are people who agree with you and like what you like (though everyone else is tired of it), and with the internet you can easily create a community however how small where you can continue your ways, in some cases certain groups may need to meet physically, be warned the moment you leave your community; people in public DO NOT think how you do, people in public WILL NOT accept your behavior in the public space, people in public will get tired of it in public spaces and there will be consequences or uprisings.
buy a plane ticket, save the drama, go where there are enough people like you to hold a physical club. It's not obscene to suggest you take your stuff somewhere else when others don't like it, their dislike of it is just as much a human right as your claim.
it's what us MTG players and D&D geeks have to do. sometimes a plane is not needed and good for you, sometimes it's just down the street.
But what ever you do do, DO NOT attempt at activism, DO NOT try to collectively swarm a place that does not agree with your ways (it's called Troll Flaming and has repercussions), it's like me trying to hold MTG tourneys on fridays, staturdays and sundays at a football stadium during ball season, not gonna happen bo I can stand there with a million people in protest, it's just not compatible with the setting and especially not with the people who 'own' it for /THEIR/ hobby space, and I'd probably leave with a wedgie and two freshly poked eyes. Do not engage politics to support your cause, do not engage the media for support, this is trolling, do not try to get your aim passed through as a human right in the supreme court, don't act or speak in mannerisms from your collective outside of your collective, it just gets funny looks. Don't expect other people to understand, don't try to repress or demonize opposition (that's war bo, you may get some victories but there will always be opponents, and there's always going to be a future where someone undoes what you pushed for and says you can't do it in public anymore, then you're the instigator but act like the victim, that looks real bad).
it's just easier for me to go to gameshub or something. but if there were a nation out there filled with people like me and the rest of the people there are ok with it then, heck that's for me. I never expect any of my desires to become a nationally pushed topic in media in a country that doesn't approve, nor would I want it, it'll just stir up chaos.
so why push
common ideologies in star wars? (I'm glad they didn't!)
