Disgusting! Some White People Are Complaining That Luke Cage Is 'So Black'

Here we go again.

Over the weekend, folks all over the country have focused their attention on Netflix's newest original series, Luke Cage, so much so that the streaming capacity was too much to hold up at one point, crashing the site. The main topic that has everyone talking, though, is how unapologetically Black the series is, and, of course, this has some white folks upset and shouting "reverse racism."

First episode of Luke Cage, where are all the white People? This show is very racist!

In response to these racist trolls, some other fans of the series explained that these critics probably feel offended since they aren't the focal point as they usually are in the majority of Hollywood-produced projects.

Dear White people who are mad about a majority black cast in #LukeCage. Wait until #BlackPanther comes out! All Black cast,Country & Hero!

@Juliet_Shen "diverse casting" = white people bad! Are you mad that Luke Cage was cast as a black guy too? No? You're a racist.

I will say that watching #LukeCage I understand why some white people can't relate. The idea that they aren't central is hard to accept

Regardless, Marvel's Luke Cage continues to dominate on the streaming front. #Winning.
