The extended trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens was released Monday. So everyone is super happy and excited and happy, right? RIGHT? -

Nope. Because that’s not what the internet is about. Instead, people took to Twitter, trending the hashtag #BoycottStarWarsVII. Apparently, based on the trailer that runs 2:35 in length, people decided this new installment is going to be too racist. -

There is! It’s Kylo Ren played by Adam Driver. I mean, yes, you never see his face because it’s covered by this black mask the entire time, but maybe it’s a start. -
