I dont understand whats not to understand. I said that people complained about TFA having a feminist agenda, and I didnt see it. TFA had strong females and males alike, and there were plenty of accomplishments made by both female and male characters. I have stated multiple times that my issues with this movie stem from every single female character being written as a borderline perfect hero with little to no blemishes on their work, while on the other side we have the men who are continuously portrayed as the sole causes of shit going haywire. For fucks sake Im not complaining that Rey being a mary sue means that the movie had an agenda, Ive listed multiple different complaints that put together could be seen as an overt agenda. This isnt boo hoo one woman accomplished one thing in a sea of successful men. This is oh hey all the men a weak failures and the women are heroes.

If people tell any sort of story now it's some sort of conspiracy against conservatives. Why is that the side that is constantly throwing around accusations of censorship instantly condemn anything that tells a story they don't agree with? "It's an SJW agenda! It's the feminists!" Or maybe, you know, someone just wants to fucking tell a story about a badass Jedi who happens to be a woman. I don't particularily care for romantic comedies. That doesn't mean I go rampaging around yelling about how they are pushing some sort of heterosexual marriage agenda. Seriously, if you swapped out gays, blacks, or any other traditionally persecuted group into your argument, they would be exactly the same. "That movie is just pushing the gay agenda!" "That movie has a black hero? Clearly, they are pushing the black agenda!" You would never suspect an agenda from anything would you? There is agendas, and then there is business that want to make money by appealing to the largest demographics to sell the maximum amount of their product. I would tend to think that a multinational conglomerate like Disney would fall into the latter category. Assigning something like Star Wars some sort of moral agenda is paranoid at best, and delusional at worst.
