I look at it as like... the right wingers are going to be like "STAR WARS IS RUINED THE CHURCH DOESN'T APPROVE"... I of course noticed the scene, like anyone else would and the only thing that made me want to roll my eyes a little bit is just the whole idea of a big corporation saying "Look!!! We checked off our gender/race boxes! BUY OUR PRODUCTS!" and that's it. They aren't doing anything for the movement like developing those characters, just flashing it on the screen for that solitary purpose.

That's kind of where I think some people are just a bit... I don't even know what the word is... annoyed? Seems harsh... but just don't like big business acting like it cares? Feels a bit insulting to everyone's intelligence when they handle it that way. Maybe it's more a bias against big business trying to seem like they give a shit than anything to do with actual lesbian kisses or whatever?
