Are you implying that racism and sexism did not contribute in any way whatsoever? Probably contributed to the word choice and bitter vitriol. But I'd bet those supposed racists would prefer well written nonwhite characters over poorly done whites. Oh, poor then. I guess that means its ok that they endlessly harassed the actors who portrayed them, because thats how movies work.

Same with Jar Jar Binks. - Finn is a fine character, and he has a clear arc that starts in TFA and continues all the way to the end of TLJ. - Comparing Rose to Jar Jar is incredibly insulting. Calling criticism of The Last Jedi racism and sexism only confirms how terrible the movie is. That's not what people are suggesting. Obviously plenty of criticism is unrelated to the characters of Finn and Rose. But it's clear that a portion of the bile that gets spat at the movie is motivated by sexism and racism. --- The fight for Net Neutrality is still not over!
