Internet trolls call new 'Star Wars' movie 'anti-white'
Some Internet trolls have attacked "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" for being "anti-white"
Their gripes are mocked, quickly drowned out on social media
(CNN)The haters of the Internet have never met a target they couldn't denounce. Even "Star Wars."
While much of the world watches and rewatches the new "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" trailer for clues about the eagerly anticipated movie, a small minority of people have attacked the film's ethnically diverse casting as "anti-white."
"#BoycottStarWarsVII because it is anti-white propaganda promoting #whitegenocide," read a tweet Monday from an account called End Cultural Marxism. The same Twitter user also called J.J. Abrams, the movie's director, a "Jewish activist" and "an anti-white nut." Another Twitter user called for a boycott of the movie "because it's nothing more than a social justice propaganda piece that alienates it's (sic) core audience of young white males."
A flurry of racist tweets included the #BoycottStarWarsVII hashtag, and someone on Monday even set up a @BoycottStarWarsVII Twitter account, although it only had 176 followers Tuesday afternoon.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" features new heroic lead characters -- played by Daisy Ridley, John Boyega and Oscar Isaac -- alongside some familiar faces from the original trilogy. Boyega is black, while Isaac has Guatemalan and Cuban ancestry.
It didn't take long for the trolls on social media to be drowned out by hordes of people mocking them while coming to the defense of the cast and the movie.

this movement is being widely mocked by many.
However, I still shake my head at this. You had a little green alien in Yoda as the greatest modern Jedi master, a 7 foot tall brown furry alien in Chewbacca, a fish headed alien in Admiral Ackbar, a grossly obese giant toad in Jabba the Hutt, and countless other aliens of more colors than the rainbow in the Star Wars movies. But, a black man in a lead role is just not feasible to these people.
