A Victim Caught in the Middle
Something she didn't bargain for when she didn't decline becoming the chief executive?
Don't tell me she thinks that by staying in office she can somehow prevent things from turning worse...
#HongKong leader Carrie Lam proposed withdrawing the #ExtraditionBill earlier this summer and suggested an independent inquiry was a good idea, but Beijing ordered her not to make any concessions, Reuters news agency reports. https://t.co/iHhKif0HfI

Because We Don't Have Enough Girl Power Yet
I'd rather see the Brad Pitt movie Ad Astra.
What's closer to reality?
NASA astronaut accused of crime committed in space
Lesbian Astronaut Anne McClain Accused of First Space Crime
And back in 2007: Court Papers: Arrested Astronaut Had Bondage Photos
And then there's this feminist period piece.

A New Movement?
Or just cultural civic nationalism?
Chronicles: Resurrecting the Old Right by Paul Gottfried
"I’ve never stopped believing that the Old Right tradition, or paleoconservatism by any other name, is the only appropriate doctrine for the right, to whatever extent the right is still concerned with social morality, a sane non-interventionist foreign policy, and the taming of the egalitarian madness that is now subverting most Western societies."
Again, no recognition that ethnic diversity may pose a problem to social cohesiveness.

Latin Blinders
Incomplete and reductionistic in so far as she ignores the diversity of ethnic groups and which became more numerically significant after the 60s. It is symbolic of the uselessness of much of Catholic academia in understanding today's problems and their causes.

Was that added touch really necessary for the story? That is rather disappointing.

1. Girl power? Check.
2. Interracial relationship (or FWB at least)? Check.
What other items on the SJW/Cultural Marxist list of what is acceptable entertainment?
A powered-down version of Marvel's Jessica Jones, without the emotional issues too?
The latest shot by Disney/ABC in the culture war. "Let's just cast a woman for the part of the tough, lone wolf private eye of the 70s and 80s."

I like how the first two "construction workers," or whatever they may be, holding the doors open are women. Not so subtle messaging there.

Mary Sue Rey Is Still a Boring Character
Even if she turns Sith for a few minutes. And who cares about her band of misfits?
In the new trailer they're still trying to piggyback the new Devil Mouse version of Star Wars to the Lucas movies.
