The discourse was further inflamed by statements and behaviors deemed confrontational or dismissive. Such incidents include assertions that Star Wars is "the gayest" of all properties—an attempt by some actors to frame the universe as inclusive—while also insisting that certain themes are intentionally included to reflect personal or political views rather than storytelling needs.

Critics argue that these tactics are attempts to manipulate narratives and distract from perceived shortcomings in the show's plot and direction.
