You do realize you're probably talking about like 100 people total. Just a small group of actual bigots who have a loud voice on the internet. It's not exclusive to Star Wars either, they will complain and "boycott" other movies. Ignore those 100 people. It's people like you and the media talking about them that are giving them essentially a voice. Ignore them.
99.9% of bashing of the movie is always about the plot, ruining characters, pointless scenes, forced comedy, ect. 99% of the other side of the argument is what you are doing. Calling us bigots and saying we are racists for thinking that 'asian' character sucked ass. We don't give a shit she was Asian. She could have been any race or sex, her character and its arc still sucked ass.
I see people complain all the time about the saving Finn by that 'asian' character (just saying Asian character as it would annoy you and also can't recal her name) during his sacrifice. Yes the whole saving him for love and what not was cringey, but what annoyed me more was the fact that she could save him. From what I recal in the scene, Finn drives straight the entire time at full speed. The others all veered off. So how did she catch up enough to ram him perpendicular? Okay, so I guess he was slowed down by the ramming beam for her to catch up. But then why the heck didn't he get shot down. The empire was like amazing at its accuracy just earlier shooting them down left and right, but then when its just one left and he is in a beeline towards obviously your important item, not only do they never hit him, I don't even think they shoot at him. But let's ignore all that again. Finn and the 'asian' crash and then on foot run all the way to the freaking bunker before these AT'AT's can get close. Like seriously, each step of the AT-AT should cover like 30 yards or more. And I guess the empire again just ignores two people running across and open desert for safety.
I'm going to just stop there for now. I could continue to talk about that ONE scene. The point is, there are many many scenes in the movie that we can spend paragraphs after paragraphs bringing out flaws, stupid things, horrible moments, ect in regards to that movie. Then after our Rant you will come in and say "you're racists for not liking the Asian."

@ bold
You obviously forgot part of that scene, cause it's even dumber than that, lol. They didn't run back to the base. Rose passed out after kissing Finn. Finn actually dragged her ass all the way to the base, which must have taken like 20 mins or more considering how far out they were. And this was AFTER Kylo gave the order for there to be no survivors.

Ah you're right. I've only seen movie once, so don't have vivid memory of everything. But yea, they were like a mile from base. You know how long that would take dragging someone, lol.
But the thing that makes me most upset about the movie is how it could have been good. They had some good moments, but then each good moment they completely ruined a second later, such as Luke's end part. He had this epic comeback and one is all hyped for the future. But then bam 2 seconds later they kill him off. All hype gone. Or at then end of some scene they toss in a random joke. Like I thought maybe I was being slightly jaded at Disney for their jokes in all their movies, but recently some older fellow started talking star wars new movie. I didn't bring it up. He asked what I thought and I just gave a nonchalant answer really, didn't want to get into a thing depending on his like or dislike, but then he flat out goes wtf was with all those weird jokes they threw in. They didn't fit and were weird.
I recently watched Jeremy Johns try to explain the hate and divide of the movies and fans right now. There was one point that he said that I think really nailed it on the head for me. It no longer feels like a galaxy far far away. Like Poes banter in the beginning, the other current times jokes, the sjw stuff, ect. All those things brought me out of this fantastical universe and made me feel like I was watching a movie with people from Earth in it. Like imagine if in Lord of the Rings they made like a Kardashian joke or something. It would just be horrible. Leave our world stuff out of a fantasy world. Kind of like Marvel movies, they are doing way too much Shrekness in them. You know the pop culture jokes non stop that end up being awkward on future viewings 5 years from now. The only people laughing are nostalgia people. A new watcher 5 years from now will not get joke or think its old and dated.
