AYRT—a lot of the fans excusing him really seemed to identify with the whole “let the past die, kill it, if you have to” thing, and assumed that Han’s leaving and Leia’s focus on statecraft were abusive somehow. His killing his “abusive” dad was cathartic for them because cutting ties with abusive family irl is demonized because “they’re family, you have to forgive them!” Or something. I had fandoms in common with a lot of Reylo fans whose blogs I eventually stopped following, but before that I tried to read some of the non-thirst reasons they rooted for him.

I didn’t even like Han that much but I felt like a lot of Kylo fans were seeing him as a proxy for their actual abusive parents who offered to welcome them back into their families if they gave up their justified anger at years of abuse. Idk. I get that allowing yourself to be angry at and not forgive abusive family can be freeing for a lot of people, but my family contained an actual incestuous pedophile rapist so people projecting that kind of anger on Han Solo for maybe being a deadbeat dad seemed like literal overkill.

Destructive anger and the freedom to lash out and be selfish aren’t fantasies or aspirations of mine, I guess? Being passionate about stuff is cool but I look at someone like Kylo Ren and see the fictional counterpart of a school shooter angry that his home life sucks and mad that he’s expected to control his anger. Nothing about that is sexy.

I am flailing at how much I agree with all of this.

I love this comment so much, it's so well articulated and, imo, accurate.
