I don’t understand why people continue to love this series/franchise when there is obviously so much wrong with it. Stephanie Meyer, first of all, portrays an emotionally and mentally abusive relationship as “romantic” and, second of all, appropriated the entire Quileute culture without doing her research or supporting said indigenous people so she could claim “diversity”.
