Star Wars fans hate Star Wars

There is an amusing and not-too-far-off screed at JIVEMagazine.com called The Complex and Terrifying Reality of Star Wars Fandom. I do not agree with everything he says (I loved Knights Of The Old Republic and the Clone Wars cartoons, and Lucas did not make Luke and Leia siblings “from the beginning”), but he pegs the major points. I particularly like this line:

Every true Star Wars fan is a Luke Skywalker, looking at his twisted, evil father, and somehow seeing good.
