I've seen 1 or 2 "SJW" complaints and that's basically it.
There's a whole fricking thread bitching about the perceived "SJW" aspect of the film.

I don't usually mind SJW aspects in movies if they're subtle and done well, but when you dedicate 40 fricking minutes to something that instead should have been a mediocre of Star Wars Rebels and sacrifice much of the plot that is actually working in the movie, then I've got a problem. Like was I under any false pretenses that the people arming Boba Fett were your typical mom and pop shop? No, of course they were scumbags. I didn't need 40 minutes for them to tell me that.
But there are some things directly promised by TFA that aren't fulfilled, namely Kylo Ren's training. It's obvious where to take this story: Make Rey and Kylo the dueling protagonists. The movie played with this idea a bit, but Kylo only makes appearances in the 2nd Act when connecting with Rey, when he should have been having more scenes that they instead waste on Finn and the Resistance. The movie is long as frick, and it wastes the audience's time on things they don't care about at the expense of the good stuff. Kylo killing Snoke would have been far more impactful if we saw them on screen together for more than 3 minutes.
