. But rather than hate on Rey being a main character

i didn't mention her at all? There are probably problems with Rey but i don't know what they are because everything about the story is so nonsensical. She's a soft reboot of luke, i guess, the same way the movies were soft reboot rather than a logical progression of the pretend material conditions at the end of RoTJ. not to mention anything resembling 30 years of books exploring post-endor events.

Oh, I wasn't referring to your problems with TLJ, I was referring to people who make hating TLJ their whole personality--you know, the ones you can allow to talk for about a minute and three different bigotry colors will shine bright. There's "TLJ was bad," then there's these guys, who usually can't stop talking about Rey.
