Literally none of that is true. All he did with Snoke is kill him. Luke wasn't in this movie, just some bitter hermit that sort of looks like him. The Knights of Ren may as well have not been there.

Also I don't know what phantoms you imagined, but there were no threads left by the end. That was a finale.

Certain people get so pissy that Rian dared to add depth to a character, treating their original, basic Hero's Journey story as peak writing that can't ever be touched again. It tracks that you fail to see the possibilities left by TLJ.

Depth is not the word for it. You're looking for character assassination.
