In the latest season of GOT Westeros is about to be invaded by the grrrl power! alliance made up of Daenerys, Asha and the Dornish women and the broken men who serve as their advisors, three of which have no genitals and fourth who is a dwarf.
Star Wars has always had political agendas, you idiot.

There were six straight films with a male protagonist and almost exclusively white leads, and then two with a female one and a demographically representative cast, and you complain?
This is what Trump supporters are: they complain about other people striving for equal rights, even if they themselves have had those rights and more for centuries.

I complain about the Mary Sue character that is Rey more than anything, but I'll also include the majority of the First Order admirals and staff being Caucasian and the Rebels being a lot more diverse.

The Empire isn't white supremacist. When asked if this was Disney authorized they said nope and it's been shown in both the comics and the new books that black characters were Imperial officers.

If anything, it far less now then it was under Lucas, or at least more subtle, as we don't have an alien Newt Gingrich running around trying to help businesses make a shit ton money while screwing over everyone else.

Exactly, it was never supposed to be a white-supremacist empire, just an evil empire. The new yokels at Disney though are twisting it around now to put out a message.

This is hilarious, Rogue One was written and filmed before the Trump fiasco. Don't blame the producers that the Donald just happens to fit snugly into the evil Galactic Empire theme.
lol the only people who could take issue with the new things that disney are doing are sexist/racists that are unhappy that people are actually challenging there privelege. it's a good thing that the women and the other cultures are finally being treated equally when star wars has historically been very white male dominated. people seem to forget that there are children who are female and from the other cultures who watch star wars. we need to establish strong role models for them especially in these times when america voted against a woman president and voted for a guy who is literally hitler in some of the things that he says..... that doesn't send a great message to are children especially young girls and children from minorities. good that disney are taking action i say.

Yes Rey being able to defeat Kylo Ren when she never held a lightsaber up until that point sends a great image to little girls. It tells them that they are entitled to success and in the real world people are just going to topple over for you. You don't need to work for anything; you're a women so you win!. We see Luke have to train away for years in the original trilogy until he defeats Vader. BUT REY IS A WOMAN so she doesn't need to! Yes we can! (please log in to view the image)
