The rebels looked like the Cholo's meets Chinatown.
But when they showed the guys who designed the Death Star and every Imperial guy I saw, it was a bunch of older white men.
OK, I get it.

Which is a shame because the comics & novels do have non-Blanco Imperials.

Because of how racially diverse the Empire was in the Original Trilogy, right? Oh that's right. It was a bunch of white guys then too.

No white person ever lost a promotion or a job or an award or got killed by cops simply because he/she was white. Making old white males the villains in a movie does not in any effect at all on old white males (like me) in real live, unlike stereotypes of minority ethnic people as mainly criminals or stupid or incapable.
Conservatism is big on the political principle: "Accuse your opponents of what you do." This "racism against white people" is one way they put that principle into practice. It is true that individuals can hate white people but this doesn't translate into racism because no white person feels the effect of that hate. That is why it is possible to say that there is NO racism against white people and those who claim there is has another, unspoken, agenda.
The O.P. is not about "Rouge One." It is only here to push an extremist political agenda and is, therefore, Off Topic. It doesn't belong on this board. It is something he/she saw or heard on ClusterFox "News" or on right-wing hate-talk radio.

By saying it's not possible to be racist against white people you are perpetuating racism, displaying a spectacular lack of self awareness, and regurgitating the most tired, cliched and absurd arguments straight out of Progressivr Twatism 101.

I was thinking more along the lines of the Free Syrian Army or Hamas;don't tell me the siege of Jedha wasn't inspired by Aleppo or Gaza.
