lol I don't meant on an individual level. I mean the white race on the group level has been very successful.

I happen to be fairly successful (I make $105K per year as a medical doctor so at least I'm evidently fairly good at something), but that's got nothing to with the discussion or my motives at all.

Isn't that "The Giver"?

I doubt you're a doctor, I doubt that very much. 

Do you view everything in the prisim of race? Is there any context where you just see people as .... uh ... people? 

Yeah I reconsidered after checking it on imdb. Star wars looks better than Katniss in space.

I finished med school almost 15 years ago and got my license 13 years ago (after the internship or whatever it's called). So in january 2017 I've worked exactly 15 years as a paid doctor. Why couldn't I be a doctor? Can't you tell I'm smart lol?

Your question is uncalled for. Of course I don't view everything in the prism of race. But the new Star Wars movie and its statement connects to the topic of race, so it's perfectly valid to discuss in this thread. And you must realize that how active we as forum members are in certain topics don't necessarily represent the fullness of our characters.

Just like you I'm bothered by things going on in society and interested in political topics.

Given your post my question is not uncalled for. 

So you're a guy professing to be a doctor who is in his late 30s/40s posting on a video game forum? "After the internship of whatever it's called" ... lol? You don't know what it's called as a doctor? 

How is a Star Wars movie, films that have blue skinned and green skinned aliens, a paragon of race that you felt it badly needed to be brought up? 

Every time I go to these forums I instinctively feel a bit ashamed and ask myself if I as a doctor really should post on a forum about video games. But this is what I am. I love video games and I've come to know this forum very well and it's just as good a place to discuss serious topics as any other place.

Don't you listen to what people say? I don't have a problem with minority actors per se, especially not in a sci-fi movie, depicting a future when mankind inevitably has become racially mixed up and become completely multicultural (but if it was a historical movie about vikings, the ancient Nubians or the ancient Chinese I would want it to be racially and culturally genuine and authentic)

But there is no doubt that the cast is chosen because of an agenda. And that's my problem. I don't like being brainwashed or preached to about this topic. I don't like that some interests use media as a tool to change society in a direction I hate (because mass immigration and the destruction of traditional Western culture is part of it). I don't like that some interests are working behind the scenes to activively hold back one race in favor of others.

Well I would venture a guess and say there's no reason for you to feel shame as I doubt you are a doctor in the first place. Pro-tip: using phrasing like: "I did the internship or whatever" is kind of a tip off that's you're not a medical genius. 

So when it is OK for a non-white person to be in Star Wars in your opinion? Only as a secondary character? And we can't have more than one of them too, right? People of minority are only allowed to be in films about their specific culture? Why is that? Because they should know their place?

Did it ever occur to you that a growing number of the audience for these films aren't white people? You understand that China is a large driver for the box office right? You understand that Latinos are the making up more and more of domestic box office right? 

already saw it. Damn impressed. There are two CGIs to look for.

Knowing about the US system of training doctors isn't obligatory here in Sweden. I can't help that I don't know what "AT-tjänstgöring" is called in the US. I have vaguely heard about a term called "intern" or "internship" so I assumed that was it (from foreign med students who were visiting us in the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm).

You are manipulative. Why do you ask it like that, "when is it OK for a non-white person to be in SW"? As if I am against minorities in a cast. That's manipulation and unecessary rethorics. Not cool.

Im protesting against the fact that the cast is chosen due to a deliberate agenda, evident from the fact that the whole lead cast is non-white male. Only the bad guys are white male.

Nobody can be so stupid that they don't see this trend in Hollywood.

If the cast was chosen to reflect the composition of the increasing Chinese market or the global movie audience, that would have been a different discussion. I still wouldn't like it, but that's not the main driver here, I assure you.
