Do not fuck with the internet.
No. That's just racism. Kinda weird that you or any decent person would jump to defend it.
I would've went with Sum Ting Wong, or Ho Lee Fook, tbh.
You don't have to convince me.
I remember when all races from all walks of life could laugh at that stuff.
Why would someone laugh at that page? There's nothing funny in it, just mean-spirited racism.
I agree that what was actually edited wasn't funny. "There is Sum Ting Wong with this character being casted in Star Wars", or something like that would've been better.

Weird how we all have to put on pretend filters now and lose our minds over shit that has no effect on our lives whatsoever.
Stop pivoting. First it was all spin, there was no racism, it was just about the character herself. Now that I've showed an example of that not being the case, well nobody should care anyway. So just say that from the jump if that's the over-arching argument, otherwise you look kinda full of shit.
What spin? Internet's gon' internet. As long as the left continues to whine about racism all over the news media, the internet is gonna drag it down and make a big spectacle of it. Was the guy who edited it racist? How the fuck should I know? It was a less than stellar attempt at being funny, I can tell you that much. More people would've laughed at my joke. :D

I don't know, I hardly give a fuck about Star Wars and didn't even know there was an asian character, let alone people whining about it. Lol.

People like to spin shit, though. Are people whining that the character is asian, or that the asian character sucked? I thought Kevin Tran was a lame ass character in Supernatural, not because he was asian, but because he was a lame ass character.
you specifically said it was forced. but we can move on.

i've heard people say that the character was under-used or the things they had her do were lame. and i've heard others say that she's asian and that's "sjw". same thing with rey as the lead (and the girl from rogue one too). if you don't like the actions of the character, that's completely justified. if you don't like her skin color or gender, fuck off. :P
It was joke! Force, as in, "The Force"... d. I never even saw the movie. :p

I'd be pissed if they made a Friday remake starring white people. Is that rassist of me?
i got the pun, thanks. :P

no. let them make the marketing decisions they wanna make.
Fuck that. If I see a white dude playing Smokey, I'm rioting.
you didn't riot when liam neeson played ras' al ghul. :P and kelly marie tran wasn't even playing an existing character in the star wars films. ( "First introduced in the 2017 film Star Wars: The Last Jedi,")
I honestly don't remember much about Star Wars. I do remember being annoyed that we didn't get to see Lando Carlissian in the prequels, though.
You needed a cut-away to Lando as a child? Why?
Stop being racist! Take out Jar-Jar Binks, replace with Lando = Victory.

lando probably didn't have a whole lot to do with anakin and that whole thing. han wasn't there either.
I didn't really love Han Solo, tbh. Definitely far from my favorite character.

You can see it that way, if you want. And it could definitely be true. I see it as that Star Wars nerd didn't like the character and thought it would be funny to vent frustration by (?)editing the girl's Star Wars page(?). Could be a racist, might not be, I honestly don't give a shit. lol. Are you assuming this specific Star Wars nerd is white, btw? How do you know it wasn't a black person, or a Japanese Star Wars fan?

Obi Wan was the baddest dude on the planets in all of the original 6.
The wise old man in the originals, and the best god damn warrior the force had to offer in the prequels.
