Since the release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, actress Kelly Marie Tran has been the target of online harassment from fans displeased with the film and with the role of her character Rose Tico, some going as far as to make offensive and racist edits to her Wookieepedia page. The vitriol became so much that Tran deleted all of her Instagram posts. With that, The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson has had enough.In a response to a tweet that defended the harassment of Tran as, "Critique and showing dislike against something," Johnson asserted the argument is complete nonsense. "Done with this disingenuous bullshit," the filmmaker wrote. "You know the difference between not liking a movie and hatefully harassing a woman so bad she has to get off social media. And you know which of those two we’re talking about here."

When the fan pushed back against Johnson's assertion that his comment was disingenuous, the filmmaker replied, "Your 'implication' was not an implication at all, it was explicitly stated in your tweet: you’re conflating critiquing a movie with being an abusive asshole to people online, when it’s clear as day they are two separate things & we’re condemning the latter and not the former."
