White supremacists are calling for people to boycott “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” accusing the film of promoting an “anti-white agenda.” Per Forward, according to a Reddit post by GenFrancoPepe titled “(((Star Wars))) Is Anti-White Social Engineering,” many are angrily pointing out the casting of women and multicultural actors who rebel against an Empire full of villainous white men.
“Nearly all of the major characters are non-Whites and the main character is an empowered White female,” the post reads. “This film should be boycotted.”
Another user stated that the movie will be a financial failure due to its diverse cast, “The new films are going to flop big league anyway. You can push the female heroes as much as you like, but even most women don’t find it interesting.”
Many white supremacists aren’t all about boycotting the film, rather, some say that they would watch the movie and root for the Empire.
“If you’re annoyed by their allegories then don’t watch it. If you’re like me you’ll pirate it at some point and fantasize about being a stormtrooper,” one user commented.
Do you think the diversity of Rogue One will affect its box office, or do you believe that Rogue One will follow suit of the diverse and female-led The Force Awakens (#1 domestic film of all time) and do impressively at the box office?
My college American history teacher told me this a year ago. He literally made the entire hour that day a speech about this Rogue One/Star Wars situation and the white supremacists on Twitter who are protesting it. Then he made the entire class about Native American genocide and how white people have an internalized racist agenda, and we had to read his book on it.

Their next film should be the opposite, do a film of a bunch of white men taking over a society fully of non-whites. The SJWs (black supremacists) would be just as furious as the white supremacists. They're one and the same anyway.
I don't know why so many people choose to be racist, you're much happier if you believe in equality.
