    So what’s actually wrong with Acolyte.

    It’s only been 3 episodes and I’ve found it fine.

    Are the “fans” unhappy because there’s:

    • Black Jedi
    • Female Jedi
    • Black Female Jedi
    • Witches (Female)
    • Lesbian witches
    • Witches that used the force to create life
    • That the fire was too quick and didnt explain why Floating Jedi with Shit Hair killed himself.
    • The witches weren’t Nightsisters
    • All of the above

    Sure there’s glaring holes and dumb stuff but it’s still entertaining. Better than Book of Boba, but not as good as Ashoka and definitely not as good as Andor. The jury is out on if better than Obi Wan, that had Vader so gets automatic points. I keep seeing YouTube’s about it being “DEI” whatever that means and just derogatorily calling out the show runner forcing in woke was because she’s lesbian etc.

    Are only straight white Jedi allowed? I haven’t seen anything “woke” shoved in your face that I can think of.

    And you’d think people would like lesbians.

    The story is still unfolding so I’m sure we will find out what actually happened to the witches, if they got youngling’d or not etc. We’ve seen the POV of one twin so perhaps the other is coming, like what’s she been up to etc.
