Discussion for all things Star Wars. Movies, books, games, TV shows and more are welcome.

  1. Keep it civil. Don’t insult other community members in posts or comments, and don’t make posts designed to insult other community members or parts of the fandom with different opinions.

  2. Posts must be on-topic.

  3. No real life politics. That means no political advocacy, and no real life political discussions vaguely dressed up as on-topic posts. If you want to discuss real life politics, you are free to start your own community.

  4. No memes/low-effort spam/Youtube poops style posts. !starwarsmemes@lemmy.world is a place for those.

  5. Posts must be coherent.

  6. If a post is otherwise allowed but has realistic gore or nudity, please mark it NSFW.

if that was the case then d+ wouldn't have removed every single merch item from the store. they basically just caved to a bigoted mob for no reason.

If your show is unpopular merch doesn't sell either lmfao

The merchandise getting pulled was probably for tax reasons. If your going to write off the entire project as a loss you don't want anymore revenue being booked to it. Same reason Disney memory holes some streaming shows when the numbers don't survive.
