Kelly Marie Tran Said “Bye Bitch” To Social Media After Months Of Harassment From Trolls
If I have to cover a story about trolls and racist ugliness, I should at least include a picture of Stormtrooper crotch. Yes, that Stormtrooper crotch is as flat and plastic as a cutting board, but I’ll take what I can get. And now I really want to suck off a cutting board.
Daisy Ridley, just one of the thousands of British brunettes who stars in a Star Wars movie, rid her life of Instagram two years ago when she made a post about gun violence and got covered with hate-laced diarrhea spewed out by trolls. Daisy said at the time that her skin isn’t thick enough to take on the hate. Kelly Marie Tran, the first woman of color to play a lead in a Star Wars movie, has now followed Daisy Ridley out of the gates of the smoldering tundra of wet farts and rotten dick cheese that is social media. And she left because like Daisy, she can’t take the hate.
Kelly’s Instagram page is still up, but all of her posts are gone. She joined Instagram a couple of months before Star Wars: The Last Jedi, where she plays Rose, came out. She said then she wasn’t sure about exposing herself to asshole laptop critics (typed by an asshole who has his PhD in asshole laptop criticism), but I guess nothing will make you hit the “sign up” button Instagram like a Disney marketing VP pointing out the part in your contract that says, “Must whore the movie out on Instagram at all cost!” via BuzzFeed
Kelly didn’t post a goodbye note on Instagram, so she didn’t give a reason for why she took a Chore Boy to all her posts. But the Twitter account Star Wars Facts (and it MUST be true since they got “Facts”in their title) says Kelly left after the internet pulled an internet and crazed fanboys harassed her because they hate her character. Just days after The Last Jedi came out in December, one piece of trash fan sprinkled several doses of racism all over her Wookieepedia page. via ComicBook.com
In the fan-updated online encyclopedia, her name was changed to “Ching Chong Wing Tong,” and her homeworld (Hays Minor) changed to “Ching Chong China.” The racism didn’t stop there, with the user attributing to her the fake quote, “Heil Hitler and I don’t know why I was casted [sic] in a good movie like Star Wars.”
All that over a fucking movie. A movie that isn’t even Showgirls!
I haven’t really seen any of the new Star Wars movies, so I don’t know what I’m talking about (Never stopped me before!), but why do I have a feeling that part of the reason why these chapped racist fans don’t like Kelly Marie Tran’s character is because she’s got a coochie and isn’t white?
The only way for Disney to respond to this is to announce today that they have greenlighted:
Star Rose: Attack Of The Rose Clones starring only Kelly Marie Tran as a thousand Roses!
Actually, I don’t want that. Imagine how many moms will have to mop up gallons of runny nerd caca after their sons lose their shit over that news in the basement? Think of the moms!
