#BoycottStarWarsVII If white people aren’t wanted in Star Wars, then our money must not be either. — Critical Spooking (@officialCritDis) October 19, 2015

I’m going to say this with as straight a face as possible: there’s a group of angry white nerds who are calling for a boycott of Star Wars: The Force Awakens because it promotes white genocide. Just check out a few of these tweets on the #BoycottStarWarsVII hashtag.

#BoycottStarWarsVII because it is anti-white propaganda promoting #whitegenocide. — End Cultural Marxism (@genophilia) October 19, 2015

A friend in LA said #StarWarsVII is basically “Deray in Space”. Jewish activist JJ Abrams is an anti-white nut. #BoycottStarWarsVII — End Cultural Marxism (@genophilia) October 19, 2015

SJWs complain about White artists “misappropriating” culture created by blacks but then celebrate a non-White Star Wars. #BoycottStarWarsVII — Captain Confederacy (@2partyhoax) October 19, 2015

#BoycottStarWarsVII because white children deserve wholesome movies, not more PC anti-white diversity crap. — End Cultural Marxism (@genophilia) October 19, 2015

They’re angry that the upcoming sequel’s cast is, well, multicultural. They seem to be angry that there’ll be less white people on screen, so obviously, genocide. While many of the face characters (that is, characters who didn’t wear masks or were aliens) in the original trilogy were white, all of these boycotters seem to be forgetting the fact that Star Wars was more diverse than what they were probably thinking.

Darth Vader? Voiced by James Earl Jones. Stormtroopers? All Maori. Boba Fett? Same deal. Lando Calrissian? Mace freakin’ Windu, come on, man, what else do I have to say?

Take a look at some of the people who’re absolutely wrecking these completely oblivious tweets.

If #BoycottStarWarsVII results in cinemas being free of racists, all the better. — Mark Burnley (@DrMarkBurnley) October 19, 2015

Im going to #BoycottStarWarsVII because I missed the entire point of science fiction and all the morals it tries to teach. — Vid Icarus (@vid_icarus) October 19, 2015

I’m going to #BoycottStarWarsVII because I am a babyman who’s terrified of the world around me — Vid Icarus (@vid_icarus) October 19, 2015

The #BoycottStarWarsVII tag — you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy, plus people making fun of them. — Popehat (@Popehat) October 19, 2015

I stand here now, speechless. There’s some kind of sick, beautiful irony in the fact that those boycotters completely missed the point of all of these films. They somehow don’t see that they’re the Empire, they’re the evil people; a clone army stamping out those that are different from them, enslaving alien populations, promoting “order” and homogeny through totalitarian control and fear.

How do you claim to be a part of the Star Wars fandom and somehow miss the entire point of all of the movies?!

Twitter continues being a wretched hive of scum and villainy. Watch your step, kid.
