Kylo Ren attends the European Premiere of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" at Leicester Square on December 16, 2015 in London, England.Chris Jackson--Getty Images by [Devan Coggan / Entertainment Weekly](https://time.com/author/entertainment-weekly/) ## Devan Coggan / Entertainment Weekly Dec 23, 2015 9:24 PM UTC Anakin Skywalker may be the original angsty _Star Wars_ teenager — after all, [his thoughts on sand](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi5jjXTPtyY) read like the lyrics from a early 2000s emo song — but a new parody Twitter account makes a pretty good case that _The Force Awakens’_ new villain, Kylo Ren, is less of a Sith lord and more of a whiny emo kid who just really hates his parents. (From here on out, there are some major spoilers, so if you haven’t seen _The Force Awakens,_ turn back now.) Dubbing himself a “Ren’s rights activist,” Emo Kylo Ren (a.k.a. [@KyloR3n](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n)) is the kind of guy who comments on YouTube videos, rants about sexism, and really, really loves Hot Topic. His Twitter account, which has racked up more than 50,000 followers in just a few days, is filled with diary entries about his budding friendship with Hux and how his parents just don’t understand him. > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679181687469789184) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679149721097736192) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679188461933486080) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679256799518814208) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679273075922370560) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679279878513012736) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679283237605261312) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679309560922939392) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679355190819094528) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679368763402272768) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679405463822278658) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679415039602909184) > [](https://twitter.com/KyloR3n/status/679489768066052096) _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/12/23/star-wars-kylo-ren-twitter) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://ew.com)_._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4160630/parody-twitter-kylo-ren/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4160630/parody-twitter-kylo-ren/"},"headline":"Parody Twitter Account Reimagines Kylo Ren as an Emo Kid","datePublished":"2015-12-23T21:24:09.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T13:37:24.278Z","description":"The tweets show him as more of a whiny emo kid who just really hates his parents","url":"https://time.com/4160630/parody-twitter-kylo-ren/","keywords":["movies","Parody","star wars: the force awakens"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc94c3d4d4355c07b/698876c8524fc06808df60f5/star-wars-parody-twitter-2015.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Devan Coggan / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc94c3d4d4355c07b/698876c8524fc06808df60f5/star-wars-parody-twitter-2015.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"star wars the force awakens kylo ren twitter parody","caption":"star wars the force awakens kylo ren twitter parody","creditText":"Chris Jackson--Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/movies/","name":"movies"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4160630/parody-twitter-kylo-ren/","name":"Parody Twitter Account Reimagines Kylo Ren as an Emo Kid"}}]}] ```
