Yeah, sadly. I actually liked The Acolyte and didn't get the hate.

But I dunno, I think it was mostly racism and other bigotries.

What/who is Rose?
Edit: Oh okay I looked up her up to refresh my memory, and yeahhhhh. It's ironic since star wars culuturally appropriated so much in the first place.

She was a sort of side/mainish character in The Last Jedi.
