From the trailer, it seems more like a critique of sjws than an endorsement of their agenda.

It's not racist. It's just stupid.

But the fact that this movie couldn't even exist the other way around is social commentary enough.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Impossible to tell without seeing it. It will all depend on the film's final conclusion, I think, and what "truths" it seeks to establish.

I can already tell this movie is racist to ugly people by portraying everyone as slim and good looking

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

Oh God, this can only end badly.

No it will be fine. It's called "Dear White People" not "Dear Black People".

No, I don't think its racist because I feel the movie will attack stereotypes on both Blacks and Whites. Two wrongs make a right

Ahh millinials trying so hard to be relevant. All they do is take a topic and turn it into entertainment for profit. Also, anyone taking this flick serious is a dumbass, it's a comedy at best and a money grab on a legit discussion at worse.

The point? Go invest some of your time and money and watch the movie, laugh, eat some popcorn, get back in your car, go home and get the fuck on with your life while you hang around and wait for another pathetic excuse to discuss race.
