I don't even think its totally tribal thinking when you boil it down. It really boils down to people taking it personally if you don't agree with them. The response is to lash out ,because on some level ,they consider it a personal insult if you don't agree with them.
I feel like that's been a good percentage of vitriol and venom that fans tend to throw at each other over these type of films . Its the inability to accept disagreement and be content with agreeing to disagree.
Instead its about being disagreeable , bullying, and insulting when it comes to online discourse.
I don't agree with several of Kennedy's steps or Johnson's ideas in regards to the recent SW films ,but I don't hate them or consider them evil . Who they are as people doesn't factor into how I feel about the end product at all.
For all I know , If I knew met RJ and Kennedy, I could end up getting along and liking both of them as people .
