Arr, ye scurvy "Star Wars" enthusiasts be not seekin' any "activist" rascal to pillage their beloved franchise. Nay, they be yearnin' for a true sea dog who be knowin' the characters and tale, and holdin' due respect for the scallywag fans.
In this humorous 17th-century pirate language, the author discusses the prevalence of "activists" in politics, media, academia, and entertainment and how it can be a profitable gig. They mention the appointment of Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, a woman of color, as the director of the next "Star Wars" film, which is seen as a positive step. However, the problem lies in the fact that Obaid-Chinoy and other directors like Nia DaCosta lead with their "activism" and "wokeness," which has resulted in the failure of films like "The Marvels." The author criticizes the prioritization of woke agendas over profit and fan satisfaction. They express concern about the next "Star Wars" film and highlight the opposition from YouTube stars and fans who fear that the franchise will be destroyed by another far-left activist director. The author also reveals that studio heads like Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy fear these activists, and the "tyranny of the minority" is more destructive within progressive companies. The author humorously suggests that becoming a self-proclaimed far-left activist is a lucrative career path, highlighting the fear and power it holds over liberal leaders. They end by jokingly contemplating the ways to crack the code of this liberal "activist" grift.
