        The actress is just playing a part in a movie. Movies are just fiction. The actress is a real person. She did a good job in the movie.

        She is a very attractive young lady IMO. Not sure why such a need to talk shi+ about someone such as this.

        If you look deeper, it boils down to blatant racism and male fragility.

        Good points. For me people like this are more of the A$$h0le Twitter / Facebook / Instagram types. You know the ones, they say stupid shi+ online, but wouldn't say this dumb shi+ in person. For me, people like this need to be called out.

        It’s more prevalent online, but it’s creeping into daily life as well. I will say, they’re in the minority

        Good point, but I think it's always been prevalent here in the US. Since the invention of the internet (esp Facebook, Twitter etc.) along with the cell phone we hear more about it now. In some ways we get better, and in other ways we falter. Time will tell on how we improve.

        White men.... One day you'll all realize that there are A LOT of disgusting, sexist, racist, bullies among you. This is ALLLLLLL white men per usual. Fuck is wrong with y'all? And so many of you have the nerve to think you're superior????

        It’s not ALL white men. I love all the new characters in the Star Wars films. Don’t care anything at all about their race or gender. And I’m a white man. Not superior to anyone.

        So you haven't learned to "not all" yet? I didn't say it was EVERY white man ANYWAY. I said it's white men doing it.

        How about specifically addressing misogyny and bigotry in the tweet, @ABC? "Dark side" is awfully vague.

        You're not doing #startrek any favors by claiming to be a fan and then spreading divisiveness. It's possible to be a fan of both Trek and #starwars . I am.
