...Mr. Bay found that “bots, trolls/sock puppets or political activists” were using the “Star Wars” debate “to propagate political messages supporting extreme right-wing causes and the discrimination of gender, race or sexuality”...

Hogwash, codswallop!

When something becomes infected with utter cancer, the output and outcome, in most cases, is utter cancer, as well....go figure.

Racism against droids. The most ridiculous thing I have heard so far.

Twitter sucks and most of those tweeting are a bunch of sick freaks that have extremely low IQ and suffer emotional disorders.

Except for people like Pres. Trump, who tweets because of the Fake News NEVER cover him fairly, and a few others, most denizens of the Twitterverse are deranged.

No one should worry about negative comments on Twitter because they’re never going to be the opinions of normal people; just the insane.

Proof: Start reading Twitter, you’ll see.

Mr. Bay is a malicious liar. He “found” no such thing. He invented it whole cloth.

That should be a capital offense.

Get woke; go broke

I pay to be entertained, not lectured to by immoral inferiors. There is a reason the box office is disappointing

Libtards didn’t learn from the flop that was Ghostbusters (all female)
They didn’t learn from the relative Marvel bust of Captain Marvel
Libtards didn’t even realize that they were pandering to the blacks with Black Panther - even the Blacks thought they were being complimented

Too bad. The more the lecture and try to control; the harder they fail

Crap. Crap. Mega-crap.

Read an article on this guy's "research." He ended up basing this on something like sixteen tweets. They make it sound like some big research project with megacomputers. He grabbed his laptop, did some twitter filtering, and "ta-da!"

50 percent of the venom directed on Twitter at Rian Johnson, director of “The Last Jedi,” came from the same sources as Russian election meddling.

Oh No! Putin’s Chef is now trying to destroy Star Wars!

So, ... Let me get this straight. From now on anything not going the “RIGHT” way is because of Russian interference.

This was debunked. Russian bots were as fictitious for Disney Star Wars as there were for the 2016 Presidential election. Of course, the NY Slimes will perpetrate any lie to further its hate America political agenda.

Truth of the matter is that Lucas Films under Kathleen Kennedy has been making garbage movies. Further, the Walt Disney Company's Bob Iger has been making horrible decisions in an attempt to milk the Star Wars franchise. Together they have been killing “the” golden franchise.

When long time fans pointed out these problems via YouTube, they were attacked by Lucas Films and Disney. Then even regular fans were attacked. Basically, the customer was blamed for not buying the merchandise vice blaming the manufacture for producing garbage. The arrogance is appalling!

Disney Star Wars failure has never been political. It has been about common people refusing to pay for political correctness pretending to be entertainment.

"Using the analytical tools that other technologists deployed to uncover Russian influence during the 2016 election..."

So his conclusions are crap, too.

Funny, because when the last one came out I saw dozens of posts that were IDENTICAL pumping up the movie.

If anything Disney is the one gaming the system.

I wonder if every article in the NYT mentions “russians”?

And if you don’t like Star Wars and buy tickets to see it, you’re an extreme right-wing Russian bot zombie. Against the wall with you.

Mr Bay is off his meds.

Is this from the Babylon Bee or the New York Times? And which is more reliable now?!
