“THE TRAILER IS JUST EEEEPPPPPPPIIIIICCCCCCC! Star Wars is back! gaaaaaad laaaaard! You know what! Let me just relax because this kind God oooo! Lmao! Seriously congrats to everyone ! December 18th!"

Few days ago, a group of Twitter users launched the claiming that the upcoming 'Star Wars : The Force Awakens' is "anti-white, promotes white genocide and is aimed at 'demoralizing and destroying Whites."

The above stated theory originates from the fact that the movie features black actor Boyegaas Finn, a stormtrooper, and one of the leads.

The inclusion of a black stormtropper in the movie caused quite a stir on social media in November 2014.

In a recent interview with V Magazine, the actor described the reaction as unnecessary;

“I’m in the movie, what are you going to do about it? You either enjoy it or you don’t. I’m not saying get used to the future. It's is already happening. People of colour and women are increasingly being shown on screen. For things to be whitewashed just doesn’t make sense," he said.
