NO-ONE's going to talk about Leia trying to kill her son ... to save Rey?


Kylo Ren is literally about to win his first ever fight against Rey when Leia suddenly steps in, using her dying breath/force, to distract him long enough so Rey could recover and KILL HIM. Leia holds on just long enough to see Rey saved and Kylo skewered by his own lightsaber. She dies *before* Rey heals him.

She killed her own son to save Rey ... just wow.

First Luke, now Leia character assassination ........ crazy stuff.

Its just a part of her not letting go of her youth.

Indeed.

Kylo screwed-up when he had a moment of empathy as he was poised to fire on mommy dearest when she was on the bridge.

Don't you see now that Leia got custody of Kylo in Galatic Family Court and used him as revenge against Han. Leia never wanted a son, she wanted a daughter, and she alienated Kylo from Han because she hated them both for the white patriarchal privilege they represented.

Additionally, Leia won a huge alimony & child support judgement against Han, with payments Han could never afford. Leia then had Han charged with being a deadbeat dad, and rather than go to Space Jail, Han went underground, back to smuggling so he could support himself without having the Galactic Family Court System garnish everything from his paycheck.

Leia was a vicious BPD bitch, and Kylo screwed-up in not killing her when he had the chance.

Kind of fits with the film AND the character assassination point.

When you think about it Han was the only one of them to actively try and find him.

I've seen a couple of other threads on here mention it. The one I'm thinking about is about more evidence that Rey is a Mary Sue.

Who wouldn't kill that prat if they had the chance.

If Harrison Ford can't save his son from being a whiney millennial then nobody can.

Luke and Leia are godless butchers, just like their daddy.
