George Lucas made the bad guys in Star Wars a dictatorship run by Space-Nazis. (Racists according to the background-lore & just look at their uniforms in the movies.)

NOW the Neo-Nazis are getting their panties in a twist because the Rebel Alliance is multi-cultural and because they have strong women. (And would still massively fail at the Bechdel-test for gender-equality.)
So what are the Neo-Nazis doing? Calling for a boycott to Star Wars.
And now guess what the new Star Wars-movie will do to the Democrats?
With the theme of fighting an evil empire?
With the theme of never giving up?
With the theme of a female hero?
