Kind of wish you didn't post this one. It's rage bait

Disney has a show, Disney has a distribution network, Disney knows the viewer metrics. They went from 6 million viewers from the first episode to 2 million viewers on the last episode. They made a decision based on their metrics, and their goals, about funding a second season. It's just business.

Everything else, people like it, don't like it, doesn't matter. It didn't perform.

This might be considered rage bait, but as a Star Wars fan I also sometimes feel like some part of the fandom can be quite toxic.

Alt-right Star Wars fan should be called out too.

They are, all the time. But also studios and actors use them as a shield. "It's not our show that sucks it's the evil Internet that made us fail."
