Dumbest complaint I've read so far re: Episode 7 (Minor spoiler in white text)

A knucklehead of my acquaintance on FB complained about Rey because:

***SPOILER TEXT BEGINS*** (highlight to view)
[hr][font color="white"]Rey is on the Light side of the force. Get it? Like Rey of Light. That's lame!

So I countered by suggesting that maybe Finn is really a fish, and Snoke is short for snowcone.[/font][hr]***SPOILER TEXT ENDS***

I loved the film, but it's not perfect. Still, that complaint is about as silly as anything I've seen.

True, but I think that they worked it into the plot effectively. Orrex Dec 2015 #2

(or, should I say "morans"?) for getting upset over a black stormtrooper and how Abrams was promoting "white genocide" because of it. Of course, Finn's big speech at the end about "Death to Whitey" maybe lends some credence to that one.

But I stand corrected: "Finn is black" is the dumbest complaint I've heard about EP7.
