On the one hand: I can’t wait for finery to become canon and to give the loudest whoop of my life, and possibly burst into tears, as they have their epic onscreen kiss.

On the other hand: John got so much racist shit thrown his way just for being IN Star Wars. I don’t want to think about how much more he might have to endure if he kisses a white woman on screen. Daisy would get shit, too–the reactions to her Instagram postings are a good indicator–but the brunt of the rage will be focused on John and possibly JJ. Fortunately John has shown the fortitude to show grace and humor in the face of hatred, but he really shouldn’t have to.

If Supergirl season one is anything to use as a guideline, then yes. It
would be an ugly mess. Right now the worst of it is under wraps because
so many fans are pretending that there’s NO POSSIBLE WAY Finn and Rey
could be more than friends.

Thank you (?) @rose-griffes for confirming my worst fears. I mean, these anti Finnreys are really something else. Don’t like the pairing, fine. Don’t want it to be canon, whatever. But pretending the romantic clues aren’t there, that the pairing is utterly impossible, that’s just racially motivated self-deception and nothing else.

Oh it’s going to be such fun. /s

And yeah, John will definitely bear the brunt of it, but I think JJ will get his share too if the Star Trek fandom is anything to go by. I’m not looking forward to the thinly veiled rants about him promoting miscegenation and polluting the “white race” which as a Jew was his plan all along.

Not that it’ll be stated that bluntly of course.

Omg and JJ is a “prior offender” too via Star Trek. Yeah they’ll drag Spuhura into it too and complain about how he’s pushing a “political agenda” over supposed artistic integrity. They’ll rant about how he misled them and gave them false hopes, how he’s being sexist and ableist (??) with Finnrey etc.

Re your tags, watch their claims at being Finnrose and/or Finnpoe fans evaporate quickly if neither Finnrey nor Reylo happens, especially if canon Reylo becomes completely impossible due to Rey Solo or Skywalker.
