KD in CA Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Perry explained. “…I spent the whole day talking about the Darth Vader situation.” Wow....someone even more pathetic than those who spent the whole day talking about the Rex Ryan situation!

You must have to work really hard to make that analysis with a straight face. This piece is more suitable for the onion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lest we forget that the Stormtroopers, aka The Cops, were all white. I want MHP job. Gets paid a ton of money to talk out her ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Wow....someone even more pathetic than those who spent the whole day talking about the Rex Ryan situation! "The Darth Vader situation" is great. THERE IS NO DARTH VADER SITUATION! HE'S A FICTIONAL CHARACTER! http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/boycott-star-wars-vii-movement-833102 "Boycott 'Star Wars VII'" Movement Launched; Movie Called "Anti-White" That's too stupid to be anything more than a desperate cry for attention.

Chef Jim Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) You mean the young-ins? Or chitlins as we call them.

DC Tom Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Vader was only given the authority to do the dirty work for old white guys (Tarkin & Palpatine) Not just that, but he was bound to Palpatine, and called him "master." And couldn't survive on his own. Clearly Vader was enslaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sodbuster Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 There are so many things wrong with this. Lando is the administrator of Cloud City and a freaking rebel general. In the prequel trilogy, Mace Windu was the most senior Jedi. Not to mention, as others have, Vader is white, and the Empire was partly modeled after the Nazis. Has she even actually seen Star Wars?

Or The Hidden Fortress, which Star Wars is "based on" (i.e. "stolen from," right down to the timing of the wipe-cuts.) No racism in The Hidden Fortress. It's a samurai movie.

They have a character named Palpatine?? Sounds like some gay ass chilled duck roulade dish the French made in the 19th century. You know....like Picard.
