'I’m going to be transparent and say it’s not a huge shock for me,' Stenberg said on Wednesday night, citing a 'rampage of vitriol' from fans
"I’m going to be transparent and say it’s not a huge shock for me," Stenberg said on Wednesday night, citing a"rampage of vitriol" from fans. The series, created and showrun by Leslye Headland, garnered massive amounts of attention—some of it even good!—during its streaming run, and ended on a cliffhanger promising more noir-ish Jedi action to come.
“That’s when we started experiencing a rampage of, I would say, hyper-conservative bigotry and vitriol, prejudice, hatred and hateful language towards us.”. In her video, Stenberg says that, “I feel like I’ve kind of moved through those feelings in various ways, including being vocal about it myself. … It just became inarguable for me, at a certain point, that in order to continue to be myself, I would have to honor my value system by being vocal even in the context of working for Disney.
