Star Wars actress Kelly Marie Tran, who has suffered months of racist and sexist abuse on social media, has deleted all her posts on Instagram.
www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-44379473-------------------------------------------------------------To be fair I understand the why fans get so upset. Some of these movies have been terrible and the thing is the books and the anime have been pretty damn great What George Lucas did to his movies... is a shame and I see why fans blame him and now Kathleen Kennedy adding today’s social justice crap to the movies isn’t helping. I see enough of what’s going on in this world I don’t need to be reminded when I sit and watch “a long time ago and in a galaxy far far away” But to blame actors? Who’s job is to read words off script and they can’t change the words or the characters they are playing? Is the stupidest thing I have seen Star Wars fans do! Blame the producers and directors! Not the freaking actors who have zero say on what the movie is and what’s its suppose to be! End rant.

The abuse she's received has zero to do with the quality, or lack of, in the last movie.

Become an actor and try to hide from the public eye. Take job on star wars movie.
I'm not pretending like I have any idea what the abuse was like or what the dms were like at all, I can't imagine it.
But who becomes an actor and takes a job as visible as a star wars main character (she's now more important than Luke) and expects it to go smoothly?
I don't blame her for quitting social media. I would in a heartbeat. But why'd you let it get to you so much? These neckbeards have nothing else... It's pathetic. I would feed off their hatred. I'd drink it up. It's all they have, they think about you more than their loved ones. It's just sad.
Wish she would come back and publicly shame them at the very least. Earn their hatred.

You can become a celebrity and not be liked for the actor you are. Which is one thing I guess. But to slam someone for there race and gender?
What the hell... seriously.
