re: Hayden Christensen Saddened by Racist Remarks About Kenobi Co-Star Moses Ingram (rant)

The biggest problem is that while there are always racist assholes out there, they're always going to be the loudest.

So anyone with a legitimate complaint will be drowned out by the folks who say "She sucks because she's black!"

Kelly Marie Tran got some hate dumped on her too. I don't know how good an actress she might be, as the writing for her character was so god-damned awful. That didn't stop people from saying some VILE shite to her on Instagram, and quite a bit of it incredibly racist.


For something so amazing, Star Wars has a fanbase chockfull of bigoted assholes. Any legitimate criticism will immediately be drowned out by them as they will latch onto that to justify their own hate, and drowning out people who truly just want the person to do better or get better writing for their characters.
