Except didn't Favreau himself say this show is set right after Return of the Jedi?

Replying in the Rangers thread. - Rangers of the New Republic on Disney+Except didn't Favreau himself say this show is set right after Return of the Jedi?
Carl Weathers got along with her as well, so... ?
And Bill Burr was pretty great this season. His "Operation Cinder" scene was one of the best scenes in the series so far.
Lucasfilm: "Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”Perhaps then Disney can unburden him by letting him go as well.
Meh
I love Bill Burr and always enjoyed his standup
Some people really need to lighten up on comedians and stop expecting them to be so damn PC
Yeah, like minstrel shows, am I right?!Meh

"Just joking" is the go to defense of bigoted statements. And even then, jokes can become normalized.
The basic tenet of always punching up is something a lot of "comedians" should consider more often.Its why i dont bother with comedians too much.
This whole "its just a joke" "its their job to offend people" blahblah doesnt fly with me.
As if "im just joking" is a good excuse.
What do people think bad stereotypes were? They were created as Jokes, to make fun of people in a vile manner...and it lead to many still dealing with it.
If anything, people should expect comedians to be better.
Its easy to point at someone, say something mean and laughing about it...but that is not comedy to me.
Thats being an ******* human.
I prefer the kinds of comedians who are there to have a laugh along with everyone and without it being at anyone's expense. Some are really good at that.Its why i dont bother with comedians too much.

I have stayed out of the whole Gina Carano drama for the most part but what do those people who are now trolling the Star Wars youtube channel think they are actually accomplishing? All people have to do is stop reading through the comments (something very few people do anyways) and then come back once those idiots move on to their next identity politics tirade.
I sure hope everyone going on that trolling campaign is like 15 years old because if not that just makes them look really sad.
I guarantee most people commenting are over 40, and maybe have seen 2 Star Wars films in their life. It's just as bad with Star Trek fandom, I seriously think it's the same weirdos.
Wait, have I missed something? I know some YouTube reviewers ("Critical Drinker" comes to mind) clearly play to the angry reactionary fanboy-crowd. But RLM seems to be fairly honest and apolitical in their opinions even when they make fun of films.As someone who escaped from going down that path, they probably are fans. And while outrage business is good business for them, it is only good business because there is an audience for it. I mean, this is the evolution of red letter media.
