Excerpts from the complete URL for the Opinion:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-the-term-jedi-is-problematic-for-describing-programs-that-promote-justice-equity-diversity-and-inclusion/
"The Jedi are inappropriate mascots for social justice. Although
they´re ostensibly heroes within the Star Wars universe, the Jedi
are inappropriate symbols for justice work. They are a religious
order of intergalactic police-monks, prone to (white) saviorism
and toxically masculine approaches to conflict resolution
(violent duels with phallic lightsabers, gaslighting by means of
"Jedi mind tricks," etc.). The Jedi are also an exclusionary
cult, membership to which is partly predicated on the possession
of heightened psychic and physical abilities (or
"Force-sensitivity"). Strikingly, Force-wielding talents are
narratively explained in Star Wars not merely in spiritual terms
but also in ableist and eugenic ones: These supernatural powers
are naturalized as biological, hereditary attributes. So it is
that Force potential is framed as a dynastic property of noble
bloodlines (for example, the Skywalker dynasty), and Force
disparities are rendered innate physical properties, measurable
via "midi-chlorian" counts (not unlike a "Force genetics" test)
and augmentable via human(oid) engineering. The heroic Jedi are
thus emblems for a host of dangerously reactionary values and
assumptions."
After that hate filled rant, the writers include a
hint of common sense:
"JEDI connects justice initiatives to corporate capital. JEDI/Jedi is
more than just a name: It´s a product. Circulating that
product´s name can promote and benefit the corporation that owns
it, even if we do not mean to do so. We are, in effect, providing
that corporation-Disney-with a form of free advertising,
commodifying and cheapening our justice work in the process."
It's a brand name! But the authors "justice work" is already a
cheap and commodified product of corporate capital, and
their "racial hatred against whites is always justified"
mentality is plain sadistic and is intended to politically
sterilize whites and prevent them from criticizing Capital.

Well, yeah. If you can't use the Force, it's impossible to be a Jedi.
It's pretty much in the definition.
It's like saying the Chicago Symphony is a bigoted organization
predicated on the possession of heightened musical ability to the
exclusion of everyone else.

No shit. Hutt seems to rejoice in being publicly wrong about everything.
I can think of three major black characters in Lucas's universe just off

Finn
Lando Calrissian
Mace Windu

The actor who played him on screen was white and, most importantly,
within the story, the character is a white guy. One's race isn't defined
by the color of one's life support system.
(And it *is* arguably true that he's in black *because* he's a villain.)
There are a lot of STAR WARS villains-- Wilhuff Tarkin, for example, who murdered 5 billion people on Alderaan-- who didn't wear black.

Bad guys wearing black goes back to long before Star Wars. In the old
cowboy movies, the bad guys tended to wear black hats while the good
guys wore white hats. This was partly done so the difference showed up
better in the early black-and-white movies and TV shows.

The actor who played him on screen was white and, most importantly,
within the story, the character is a white guy. One's race isn't defined
by the color of one's life support system.
(And it *is* arguably true that he's in black *because* he's a villain.)
There are a lot of STAR WARS villains-- Wilhuff Tarkin, for example, who murdered 5 billion people on Alderaan-- who didn't wear black.

Bad guys wearing black goes back to long before Star Wars. In the old
cowboy movies, the bad guys tended to wear black hats while the good
guys wore white hats. This was partly done so the difference showed up
better in the early black-and-white movies and TV shows.
In STAR WARS, the good guys wear white yoga pants. Brown accessories if they're *really* good.

No. You did:
"There was exactly one token black dude in Lucas's universe"
When you use the words "exactly one" it kinda limits your ability to
wriggle out of it when three are presented to you in rebuttal, Hutt, you oozing lump.

No shit. Hutt seems to rejoice in being publicly wrong about
everything.
I can think of three major black characters in Lucas's universe just
off
the top of my head without even needing to go back and look at the
films:
Finn
Lando Calrissian
Mace Windu

as a
black guy for purposes of complaining that the only black character in >>>> the original film was a villain. Apparently these lackbrains think that >>>> wearing black clothing makes someone a black person.
Well, that and the actor who voiced him. Not much else to go on...
(And it *is* arguably true that he's in black *because* he's a villain.)
I wouldn't go that far. JEJ has a unique voice and it's in demand as
such.
I know. I was momentarily overcome by the urge to participate...

More lies from the resident sack of shit. There was exactly one
token
black dude in Lucas's universe until you sold out to Disney and
the DEI
version came along.

And yet, being a movie pig you didn't even comment on my mention of John Sayles and the superb Matewan?

Bad guys wearing black goes back to long before Star Wars. In the old
cowboy movies, the bad guys tended to wear black hats while the good
guys wore white hats. This was partly done so the difference showed
up better in the early black-and-white movies and TV shows.
In STAR WARS, the good guys wear white yoga pants. Brown accessories
if they're *really* good.
What about the colors of their ultra phallic light sabers?
I assumed those reflected temperament, like mood rings...

The baddies usually use red blades. The goodies use a variety of
colours - Samuel L. Jackson asked for his character to have a purple
blade.
