Luke was never Finn incompetent in the movie. He's traumatized because of his failure as a master and realizing that the Jedi are a bunch of religious freaks that become to damn arrogant because they believe they are on the "good side".
Luke was never a perfect hero, he had a bunch of flaws during the OG trilogy. I don't get why people can't even fathom him being emotionally vulnerable when that's all he is during the first 2 movies and it's something that pretty much comes with the Skywalker genes.
I understand WANTING to see him beast with a lightsaber, give work to people and be a huge badass, and being underwhelmed by him being something completely different - though he does show the biggest feat of strength in the Force we've ever seen so far - but him being a scared old man scarred by his mistakes, like Yoda and Obi Wan, is at least in the realm of possibility. Not liking it is one thing, but treating his arc like blasphemy I don't agree at all.
His arc is complete blasphemy.
Simply because it is handled with such low quality care. That it purposefully from that negligence destroys who and what Luke Skywalker is. Which is an expression of us all anywhere, being confident enough to try to create change from some unknown place. Then finding out about ourselves, and using who we are to help the elongating ideal of hope.
The reason why star wars is the largest is because of this.
That no American product has.
Integrally Everyone in America is influenced in general by Luke Skywalker. That if all our astral forms were broken down.
It would be some emanating glowing figure under neath our layers
To deny it is not to be in touch with yourself or America. That to the point everything you use to define you positively was terraformed by the character Luke Skywalker, period.

We are all luke at our core. What this movie says, ultimately is. We never will grow and be products of wisdom.
regardless of what occurs or happens.
We will always internalize and never move past being victimized.
As wisdom is the ability to use the cause and effect, and cognitive choices of others to aid our prescient ability to grow. In this Luke is neutered and emasculated. To the point he never learns to listen and also does not most importantly GROW!
this movie is a betrayal to any any wisdom you have been given and should be wise enough to use to aid and amplify your quality of life. This movie says don't grow and do not use wisdom and in effect do not become a wise person.
